Depending on the result of Norway vs China we'll be up against either Korea or Malaysia.

Mate. Maaaaaate.

Come at us bro. You know you want it

I'd love to but I think I'll settle for Malaysia.

Hopefully China will beat Norway and manage to screw up their SDR along the way.

I have removed all talk of bans. No countries will be banned from any tournament under my watch, as this is completely unfair.

Individual players may contact me if they feel they have been unfairly dealt with. No further public announcements of "bans" from tournaments will happen. If behaviour is considered unacceptable, the ban will be game-wide and placed by me, or decided in the time after this tournament and before next.

Do note that silenced players may be disqualified from matches, so make sure not to do anything you shouldn't while the tourney is running.

"Bronze Match" sounds weird as well.

Also, is it just me, or this pool is kinda streamy?

Just the occasional song titles, especially hearable at reading "Sekai de Hitotsu no Takaramono". Also reading Waruku as Waraku in Waruku nai ne.

It's called an accent and we all have one regardless of which language we speak.

In fact I hope whoever it is keeps pronouncing it that way since it seems to put you out.
Ciunek
Yep, I can tell that much, felt it was worth pointing that out though just to relax the drama thread a bit :')

Also it just actually sounds bit funny, not irritating, so yeah, they should keep it up.

Well they forgot to post it here so...

One of the postponed matches has been scheduled:
Russia (A:2) vs Indonesia (A:3) - Wednesday, December 12th @ 14:00 UTC
(which is in about 4.5 hours)

I intentionally pronounce it with an American accent. I would hate to have to bring out a Japanese accent just for pronouncing song titles.

Yes, I have a problem with sounding like a weeaboo.

It's only weeaboo if you put too much into it like this desu

There is no such thing as an half-assed accent for me; either I sound French or I try to sound like a native speaker.

About postponed matches and stuff:
Tomorrow (14th December 2012), 17 UTC, the Norway vs China match will be held.
Indonesia vs. Russia has been held (as you noticed, lol)
Ukraine wins by default against Canada, because Canada failed to set up a schedule time
Taiwan wins by default against Indonesia, because no time agreement could be established and because it's Indonesia's issue that the match had to be postponed in the first place.

Schedule for Round of 16 will come during the day. Finalized schedule will appear after Norway vs China took place (since we don't know who meets who so far).

Elimination-image should self-update. If it doesn't, please clean your cache and reload the image.

it seems we went out in style and no team can show off such a close defeat in the group stages with 3 teams winning 2/3 matches.

Good luck to all participants. We vikings will overlook the rest from Valhalla!

Congratulations to all ascending teams.
Here is the table of overall performance of all ascending teams across all groups.
They are sorted by the priority used for the inner-group rankings.

fartownik just reminded me. Keep in mind, that Round of 16 uses Best-of-9 ruleset. This means, that you actually have to win 5 maps to win your match.

I wonder if this will cause overlap problems in matches
Salvage
I'ts a good point, didn't think about that .. it will for sure affect later stages, maybe not this one (and yes .. here the 15 minutes rule will show more effectiveness).

This bug was already fixed before Gladi even got silenced.
Quit discussion, bad luck for you.
Vish024
You don't need Gladi to play, just nominate a vice captain and get a replacement for him. That's why you have an 8 man squad.

Ok, but let me get one more thing in, if it was fixed, why is it that Gladi can't log-in?

I still don't get why semi-finals and finals are being held in the same 2 days, it's quite impossible for teams to make it...

Hey everyone,

First post here, whoo! Quick question: how were the pairings for the RO16 decided? I find it odd that the two highest ranking teams from the group stage (Korea/Germany) will most likely meet in the RO8 already. I would have expected them to be seeded on opposite sides of the bracket.
Wishy
Germany is not really considered as one of the over-powered teams I think. Imba teams afaik are Japan, Korea and Poland I guess. I find it odd tho that yeah, Japan's gonna meet Poland (possibly) on RO8.

Team ranking has nothing to do with anything.

Taiwan vs Thailand
Taiwan wins 5:1

Really good plays overall, but Taiwan too strong.

A1 vs H2, A2 vs H1, B1 vs G2, B2 vs G1 and so on. Seeding such small amount of teams doesn't make much sense since we'd have to kill like half of the possibilities in matches (ex. teams facing themselves in the groupstage, teams seeded can't play against themselves etc.). This was simple and still random because of the first drawings. Also it's used in a lot of competitions.
Eldrythan
Alright, thanks for the reply!
Oinari-sama
Seeing the Norway vs Korea match, maybe next year we can consider having an alternative rule for 4v3 (for circumstances deemed exceptional by the organiser)?

In an unavoidable 4v3, maybe the top 3 scores of the 4 player team can be used to calculate the final team score against the 3 player team? Just a thought...

Postponings due to extraordinary circumstances:

Korea vs. Norway: Sunday, 16th Dec 2012, 10 UTC
Russia vs. Japan: Saturday, 22nd Dec 2012, 14 UTC
Malaysia vs. Australia: 22nd Dec, <time to be announced> (Captains: please contact schedulers)

This is not common. If you fail to have a valid reason, your matches WILL NOT BE postponed.
This can only be done because we have this spare weekend. In upcoming rounds, there are NO POSTPONINGS POSSIBLE, regardless of how stupid or heavy your reason might be.
peppy
no postponing is only possible if the schedule is released more than 24 hours before the matches, though.

Makar

Please send in your times at least 5-6 days before the matches so that scheduling conflicts like this won't happen so often.



If you want to change your schedule 8 hours before the match starts you won't be able to anymore and will probably just be disqualified. Available times need to be sent to the schedulers asap.

Quarter finals are most likely getting postponed due to lack of player responsibility
