Your time preferences don't seem very specific to me and I cannot generalize the time that you'd like to be around. For a note to everyone that has a more strained than normal schedule, do your best to be specific about times that you have a much higher certainty to play for, rather than trying to put out preferences, because the chances of you getting a time that is better for you will improve if you can give me more concrete time blocks that are good for you.

Does the disconnection rule applies to dying graphic chipset? I would gladly enter, but I don't know if I'll stay on the whole time..... It's a question of luck..... Well, I'll test abit more if mania freeze completely or only partially when the driver stops working........ And I may enter if it's not too bad.... Or in the worst case, I can always borrow my brother's PC...... Yes, I'll do that if the problem is too bad.
Count me in to represent the more "bad" players.
UTC-5 (Quebec)
I'm available, well, always. Even in the middle of the night, haha.
The disconnection rule is an all-encompassing situation for when a player leaves the lobby. Getting stuck in the lobby is a case-by-case basis that will be handled, but it will likely be handled in the same way. I may come up with an internal clause (i.e. not shown in this particular thread but handed to referees) regarding a special case situation where a player remains in the lobby but is not responsive. That is somewhat low priority at the moment, since the tournament is still into sign-up stages and could stand to wait a bit longer for more refinement of logistics.
84 sign-ups so far!
EDIT: Actually, I received a private message regarding disconnections, so I should clarify how the process works in here. I'll add this clarification to the OP as well.
A player who disconnects from their lobby will have a two minute disconnection timer, and will have two disconnections in a given match. You cannot use both disconnections on a single song -- if a disconnection twice on the same song, the second disconnection
will not be nullified and the other player will immediately receive a point. At that point, a player will still have one disconnection remaining to apply the timer.
If the disconnection timer hits 0 for a player, the player's 10 minute grace period will begin to drop;
this emphasizes the importance of arriving to your matches on time, as this is the same grace period timer that will begin to reduce if a player arrives to their match lobby late. If at any point in the match, a player's grace period timer hits 0, then the match will be forfeited. Those of you that are worried about potentially getting disqualified due to disconnection, it will take a rather severe circumstance to cause you to lose the match.
UTC -5. Mostly available on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sunday afternoons, but I can very easily work around that if needed.
