    Agreeing with this. We shouldn't need to go out of our way to do this. Obviously those who know how to navigate IRC and can access it should, but there needs to be a reliable way of getting to them. Plus the time I went on IRC, half the people were afk and the other 2 took a while to respond. At least when you get flashed on PO, the pop up window appears, that's not the case on IRC

    Incompetent TD gonna be incompetent.


    Sorry IMP's not gonna stand for blatant bullshit: Since when do you have to replay a battle when YOUR OPPONENT ACCEPTS THE CHALLENGE. And then we get "offered a rematch" where we can't even change teams but the guy WHO FUCKED UP gets to pick his own team after having the opportunity to scout.

    Enjoy the rest of this shitty tournament.


    P.S. I predicted this tournament to be horse feces since the start

    There's never been a team tournament where a ruling "against" a team wasn't bullshit according to that team. Welcome to the long line :)
    I enjoyed your proposition of "I will play if I can redo the match if I lose". That was very amusing. But regardless the team MTH planned to use was posted on the forums and had a mediocre at best matchup against Adam's if he wanted to Cteam even he could have done much better. In future don't challenge someone's LC team or w/e. If you challenge his OU team he can't even pick his LC team. All he may have even done was mash enter. The guy who fucked up was Adam. Farewell honorable soldiers of justice.

    All referees agreed to Redo. The battle was pretty fair since Mewtwo's team was public in a RMT, and the matchup was even favourable to Adam (from what I saw). Your tactic of 'Give us the activity win or we withdraw' wasn't really good.

    Anyways I want to apologize for all not involved people in this drama.

    Players stands have been updated. Sorry for the delay but it was a big amount of work and I only had time today. From now on, the players stands are fully updated.

    Sorry for any inconvenience.

    No response from Takuya yet. Neither from Carloos, who is John Betons opponent. John Beton got no PO account, so I contacted him for him. Activity.

    Granbull has been inactive this week for unknown (to me) reasons. I will sub him out later today if he doesn't show up.

    As an IMP member who was active in this tournament I'd like to apologise for the way in which certain matters were handled.

    Although I disagree with the logic you gave for not awarding us with the win in Adams game, as in my opinion "because the team was RMT'd on the forum", and "if he was planning to Cteam he could have done much better" are just not valid as a reason whatsoever. The fact is you still acknowledge that he may have been planning to counterteam (which is against the rules etc...) but yet still didn't do anything to penalise them is in my opinion at least, pretty ridiculous.

    Regardless of this, however badly we believe this tournament to have been run, we should still accept what the judges had to say on the matter and move on. Some of us, as IMP members wanted to win this tour and put a lot of effort into learning new tiers and building new teams etc, and now can't because decisions have been made that affected a minority (one game) and not the many who genuinely wanted to play.

    For all that think that IMP look bad as a result of this, please see that most of our members had nothing to do with this decision and are genuinely pissed off that we have withdrawn from the tour. We had no say in the matter whatsoever.

    Apologies for this nonsense once again, and GL in the tour to the remaining clans.

    1st of all I want to thank you for a reasonable post explaining things as it should be explained.

    Second, all the drama started with a clear misunderstood from Adam at challenging (He challed Mewtwo's LC team) and from Mewtwo for accepting. All referees checked the logs and analyzed the situation and clearly a redo was the only possible solution. Also being strictly meticulous, the tier of the battle was not valid. (It was Mixed Gen 5, not Wifi OU). It was clearly an error, so the 'normal' thing would be redo in that moment and that's it. Adam thought that Mewtwo did that for 'scouting' which is totally false. (Anyone that know Mewtwo knows that he isnt even an OU player). He was using a RMT'd team from start (Since is the only good team he has in OU).

    The first notification I had from IMP was 'Give us the win or we withdraw'. No explanation or whatsoever was given. Everybody agrees that this was a misunderstood (We all are humans) and a simple redo would end the drama in minutes. Even Adam admitted that he screwed up in challenging. Things got out of hand, Adam accused Mewtwo and ENM of cheating (Scouting) and asked for the win. The Referees decission was firm and they decided to withdraw.

    As any reasonable person would agree, having some sportsmanship (from both sides) a simple redo would work and thats it. But instead of that IMP leaders threatened the referees with the sentence I said before ('Give us the win or we withdraw').

    It's sad that a matchup that was so close and promissed that much ended up in this stupid way. I feel really sorry for those IMP players that werent involved in all this drama, but as always everything comes down to the leaders decission. If your leader wants to withdraw we cant stop him from.

    I don't know if I'm forgetting something but your post really deserved a good reply. If you (or other not involved IMP players) want more details or want to ask any question please feel free to contact me.

    Thanks and Sorry.

    He's been on everyday (for quite a significant amount of time.)
    If he can't make it when you're avaliable, that doesn't make him inactive. Just means you guys have different schedules.

    Our GMTs were widely different, and I'm part of the Tournament staff as of now, so I am more busier than I used to be. Even then, I've tried my best to look for you in #tohjo falls, but I couldn't find you :(

    I think it'd be better if we could find a more proper coinciding timezone in the weekends. How about this Saturday or Sunday?

    I would like to say that Elite will not use underhand methods just to claim activity win. Your post pretty much insulted the integrity of my clanmates. I would like to point out that most if not all of our members have Forum Accounts and check them regularly, and also are channel /server/forum staff, so we know where to draw the line, so contact them from there. I won't stand the insult you threw at my mates.

    This deserves a warning, CaralloMan. I'm guessing people from the [lendary] Clan is pretty much aware of this. On another note, Mortimer the Mighty Bagon, we're bashing him because of his attitude.

    I don't understand davidness and Robert. activity posts. Any of them have contacted TH opp and for example, in Robert case, his timezone is here 2am, so it's not probably play against him until the weekend. And with ness the same, he and Chisposo are in contact, so both them are active
