yes, we are the champions BW, JR told me in a PM and also in game chat due to them being many days late, JR gave them several warnings and even went days beyond the deadline to send them pm's and still they were late even with JR being nice and giving much extra time. I just said we will play the 3 games out for fun and didn't drop them to just play them out, not sure why JR has not claimed us the champions yet, maybe he is just busy, or maybe after the 3 games are completed regardless of what happens is when he will post us champs, I guess just patience my friend, JR dont lie, so if he said they forfeited, they forfeited and games dont count, I was being nice and just am playing them out, but we are champs regardless of what happens.
I got the pm but here it is also in game chat BW
2009-05-13 04:18:23 - JOHNNYROCKET24: the PM was sent Saturday at 6:00 AM. Mothers Day was not involved
2009-05-13 04:18:57 - JOHNNYROCKET24: I sent a reminder on Monday 5:00 AM and a final warning Monday afternoon
2009-05-13 04:19:23 - JOHNNYROCKET24: the game started Monday 9:00 PM. 2 days after the allowed time
2009-05-13 04:19:39 - JOHNNYROCKET24: and i got no response telling me why there was a delay
2009-05-13 11:49:24 - Big Whiskey [team]: UGH,,lost 11-3 :$ thankfully we already champs
2009-05-13 16:43:26 - JOHNNYROCKET24: 2009-05-12 19:43:59 - Bigroo4601: unfortunate
I never saw an invite so i'm guessing it went to one person from each team?
2009-05-13 16:43:59 - JOHNNYROCKET24: the message went to the team captain as described in my thread. the same way I run all team tournies
2009-05-13 16:44:26 - JOHNNYROCKET24: the PM is sent to the captain with game numbers and the captain gets all his players to join the correct team
2009-05-13 16:45:43 - JOHNNYROCKET24: i have had players in the past who have asked for extensions knowing they would be gone for the weekend and i gladly accepted the request
2009-05-13 16:45:59 - JOHNNYROCKET24: in this case i got no response
2009-05-13 16:46:43 - JOHNNYROCKET24: blitz knows first hand that i am generous with the 24 hour notice especially when players/team notify me
2009-05-13 16:47:15 - JOHNNYROCKET24: i waited 2 extra days and decided to move on. this is the first time i ever had to issue a forfeitI agree, JR has been always more than generous with time, which I disagreed with on other teams went past deadline, but even after he gave the warnings, they were still late, there was also plenty of notice. So, JR I am guessing will post us champs after the games are done regardless of the outcome as this is the 1st time he ever had to forfeit anyone.
