To be honest I really doubt that someone from the staff is still interested in owc.

tl;dr we contacted SiLviA that we couldn't play, however he wasn't online at the time we sent the PM. He only saw it some time before the game was supposed to start. We suggest moving the game to the next weekend, however Japan has all the right to refuse to play and go to the finals, since it was our fault to not have contacted Japan sooner. It's all in Japan's hands.

Did you contact silvia at least 24 hours before the match? Because that is the protocol made after the Vietnam fiasco, and if you didn't then Japan automatically progresses.

He sent a message before 8 hours at start of the game. I was confirmed the message before 2 hours at start of the game. This screenshot is what I have confirmed the message at that time. (this) So we can automatically progresses to final ?

poor English sorry ><

Okay then. We'll try to organize the match with Russia as soon as possible. Sorry for the inconvenience - I wasn't gonna play, and I only knew fabricio was not going to play when I was about to sleep.

Really? Thought it takes even less than that or for the staff members maybe it takes ages, who knows.

Yes Silvia, now you play the final.

against me 1vs1 till death

Let's just skip the match.

I don't have the original file, so that's why it was 2 min: starting PS, cutting out countries, positioning, etc., saving, uploading, writing post.
With the original file that would be around 20-30 sec? O.o.. maybe.

damn this game, why can't reschedule? and wtf bd, you knew i wasn't going to play because my new pc had just arrived and my old one is broken

except you said you would maybe play, and you said that if you went online we would be able to play since you got your computer back, but then later you went online EXACTLY to say you couldn't play, and that fucked me up

Is this tournament being run by the team captains now?
Oh wait, it's been that way from the beginning.
I see the staff members online in osu!, but apparently they don't have the time to keep this thread/tournament organized and up to date.

It's a shame the match didn't go as planned, good luck to the rest though

I wonder if not.

Ok I guess I should write something up (again because my browser crashed after writing a wall of text)

For first - yes, I was active past few weeks. Not much, but still. I should've updated the pic in the first post and other stuff and care about the tournament much more, though I didn't. I'd like to sorry for that. A loit of coincidences went up irl and I turned into kind of stagnation, or whatever it's called. Not gonna get deep in this. For now - I'm just gonna get this all together and make the tournament until the end.

About the actual situation - I was really disappointed seeing a walkover in the Japan vs Brazil match on such advanced stage in the tournament. It was one of the reasons of my inactivity - the players don't treat the tournament serious, so why should I ...? Japan officially makes it to the Final. The maps for the Final and 3rd place match with schedules will be announced this week.

I would like to apologize about that unproffesional behaviour from my side and thank to KRZY, you are one of this rare group of people that doesn't treat this all negative.

Thank you for your response, now let's gear up for the very best. You can expect Korea to give our all.

This is gonna be awesome

I don't know about the rest of the people who did participate in the OWC while they could, but I took it very seriously. I'm almost offended farto said that we didn't take it seriously.

GO KOREA GO!!!

I think he was talking about what happened with Brazil.
Regardless, it's still a lame reason for inactivity, as the organizing staff. I didn't take that sentence seriously at all.

Hoping to witness a great final!

I'm sorry, but what? This was my fault, I know, but it's not because I am not treating the tournament seriously. fabriciorby didn't login for like 3 days because of a computer problem, there was NO WAY I could know that he wouldn't be online at the time of the match, since he just said he would MAYBE get online. I did want to play the semi-finals, however we had a contacting problem, and that's it.

blablabla we lost blablabla

I said "ONE of the reasons", not the main reason. Still it's mostly mine shitty personality's fault. Don't take it personally, anyone from Br.

You mean one of the reasons why you were inactive for months because of the recent activities with japan and brazil happened several days ago?

I suggest you all drop it. fartownik is back and taking care of the rest of the tournament, there's no point in whining now.

Odaril-chan for next French team captain!!(runs~)

I was captain (for the group stage, then I left the team and let Maestro in in my place).

That explains why he seemed like the most important person for The French team during Malaysia vs France, had to support my home country sorry XD

Neruell probably doesn't realize that he is the biggest funspoiler of the tournament, always being extra-sarcastic and pessimistic.

Indeed I am, especially when shit is happening around. At least if you call shit aka all 124 pages (including the first post which wasn't updated since last year) of this thread fun then I am guilty.

If that is by constantly looking down on others and making a mess out of nothing, then I seriously doubt your sense of humor.

If you call it nothing then I really wonder of your common sense. This has become a spam thread when it was abandaned by people who organized it and that was approx. 2 months ago or on page 80 or something like that. It was kept alive by people who do really want to play owc/osu and not by people who were organizing it before.

First page was not updated around 2 months by now, so long ago that people in german team are even already banned. Don't want to start talking about simple request about a pic which takes approx 2 mins.

If a person has any person/real life issue then why is it so hard to spend 1-2 minutes of real life to post in this thread about making maybe a break or just explaining the issue. Not simply going away not saying anything. But ok, problems can happen, so if the person who "owns" this thread doesn't care, why should I? Also it is not only 1 person doing everything, so a reply from an other person isn't much to except?

I do understand that there are really people who want to play and like it and an owc is a good alternative to standard farming in osu, but a fail stays a fail, no matter how you think about it. As for my "part" I am just having fun, because I do not really care about this thread in general which was already spammed hard by tons of other before. Making me or any specific person responsible for all this is stupid.

People who organized it failed. Not just 1 person. Don't start saying things like "do it better", and all I can say to this, "thats why I don't do it". Simple. People who organize it should realise what they will confront (people who will rage, people who will spam (like me for example) and other unforseen stuff) and must be responsible for what they do and can't just ignore everything if something goes wrong and just hope everything to work fine on it's own.

Managing a tournament all by yourself can get very hectic sometimes and things slip your mind, give him a break. If things like walk-overs or bad communication occurs it really brings down the motivation for the organisers since things aren't going as planned. I can't believe people are actually shit talking farto, he is not doing this for himself, but for the community. Yes, he went slightly inactive, but bear with him, the tournament is still running.

ITT: Keeping a thread on a dot-clicking game forum updated is more important than anything else

If someone involves other people and their real life into it, then it matters.

Instead of trolling, try to be productive, like KRZY for example (I'm guessing you've seen his post about the pm).

Neruell im not saying you're wrong, but you're approaching the problem in the wrong direction. Make the best out of the current situation.

OBJECTION!
You were not a current participant of owc since 1st stage, but complained about every possible thing throughout the whole tournament for some reason

Really, seeing you whining every page is just plain annoying

2Brazil: I think you should have discussed with Japan, if they are fine with skipping the game and going to the finals (you haven't, have you?). Maybe it's not too late yet?
If I were JP leader I would agree on a delay and play the match a little later. Because it's no fun this way =\

Too late.. i think it's already been established that japan will play in the finals like 3 pages ago. If the decision is reverted now it'd just make things more messy than it already is.

That is exactly why there must be a person who organizes it.

I guess you should stop whining already, Neruell. I have apologized and admitted it was my fault, and you still continue your talk. What is your point? Oh, I know. Fuck up to everything, even just slightly wrong in the tournament organization, as you did from the beginning. Really, you have nothing else to do? If you don't care about this thread then leave and don't come back, I'm sure no one will miss you.

Also, if you mentioned that troll spam on 80 page or something like that - a lot of posts has been deleted by the moderators whose I asked to do it that time. Well, you didn't notice that because you see only our fails, of course.

I really hope this will all go calmly until the end and I wish all the unproductive discussion to stop from now.

rightly, i think

I see nothing in here that justifies your attitude. In my eyes it is people like you who ruined the fun of this tournament for some people.

Might I also point out that half of those troll posts are yours.



In a more useful topic, still waiting for the maplist for 3rd place playoff and final.

Good luck Japan vs Korea, walkovers are walkovers I don't think the decision should be reverted. And I have to admit because I merely flipped through a few pages before posting I thought he was funny

When is Japan vs Korea?

i think against france it was 3:1

Beatmaps for the Final and 3rd place match:



Also, all the Extra maps from previous stages are available to pick as usual choices in this round. So these are:

Mappack.

Proposed timetables for the matches:
Brazil vs Russian Federation - 10.03.11, Saturday, 14:00 GMT-2 / 20:00 GMT+4
Japan vs Republic of Korea - 11.03.11, Sunday, 20:00 GMT+9

Nothing changes in the system of playing. You still play BO7 (one of the teams must reach 4 maps to win the entire game) and choose 3 maps as a team.

That was totally unnecessary. What's a good comeback? Stick to your kangaroos?

Seriously, go die in a fire.

If you people don't stop this useless fight I'll be locking this thread until the match has been played.

Nah, really, it's me who find amusing, your country doesn't even passed to 1/8 finals and you're telling us who made to semi to stick to football?

I'm stopping here to respect the good players from your country, but you're seriously an asshole that needs to stop posting, consider that.

We tried to talk to Akai- saying we can't play this weekend, Akai said that they would try to contact all the players.

Still no answer from them.

We can't play this weekend too anyway. Don't worry

Walkover is not an option in such advanced stage. Postpone the match until both teams agree on one date, take your time.

It shouldn't have in the previous stage too but whatever, gl to the remaining teams.
