This time schedule is horrible! Mabye it was ok for 2 players but how should we arrange a game with 3 players randomly chosen from around the world which have timezones from gmt-7 till gmt+2 (in our case) AND end this game in 6 days?

When we have less time for this tournament we can play 1vs1 games (with the best match of timezones). They are about 3 times faster and easier to arange!

Great, my opponents are all dropping off the face of the universe before the game even starts! At this rate, all I have to do it sit around until we run out of players and I win by default.

Man-whose-name-I-cannot-recall has apparently been replaced by man-whose-name-has-no-vowels, somebody who hasn't been seen in, well, ages. Are you sure he's still alive or was even applying to play? I could only find one post by him, and it fell short of an affirmation.

Mmmm I believe the biggest problem is to arrange the game ...

Round1 'CALMON' vs 'MANTIS2K' vs 'LEPAKKO'

Ok here is our problem:

Me (calmon) and lepakko are GMT+2. Mantis2k (sub for graeme) is GMT-7!

My time for playing is in the evening. Lets say from 4-11 gmt. I don't have much time at the weekends.

Lepakkos time is similiar. But he is in a camp from 13.6.-19.6. so he can't play in the second week.

Mantis2k (GMT-7) has only 1 hour in the night and half a hour in the morning to play which means early in the morning and noon here in gmt+2 timezone in which i sleep or have to work. He has more time at the weekends.

How we can play this game with more then 1-2 turns a day? I can't see a timezone in which all of us are Online to play more then this amount of turns. Our game would be on turn 10-15 at the end of the tournament but not finished.

Why we don't play duels? 1vs1 is a world better to arrange then a 3 player game.

Register for a FREE ACCOUNT there ! Than i can put you into the tourney !

Just let me know when you joined.

@Norfleet : We will take the URGAIA map to play. So players can chose their Race.
All right, I've registered "Battlefield" account, it has the same name (Stormbinder). Is there anything else that I need to do to join this tournament, Napoleon?

Bah. This is starting to become more trouble than it's worth. I'd quit, as I'm starting to get really tired of the people, the game, and stuff in general, except that I never quit, so I'm stuck here. Grah.

Now where do we find the list of victims we're supposed to be matched against? Or do we just pick somebody that's happens to be around from the list, duel, and then the loser is eliminated from the tournament?
