Ultio Atrox [uAx] vs Nightmare on Sesame Street [Elmo] 2:1

We lost the 1st match, changed our build an won the next 2 fights.
[Elmo] played only one build and they had a warrior going afk in the middle of the fight - kicked him after the last match they said

Just A Minor Threat [Meh] defeats. Onslaught Of Xen [OoX] 2-0

They told us they had some problems with the time changes, so we waited one hour for them to form up. And then beat them in two 10 minute flawless matches.

Nice guys though

Forsaken Wanderers [FW] vs. Good Luck and Die [GLAD]

I think we had the same issue as StP. Euro guild that we never heard anything from after trying to contact to set up match times. I'm pretty sure we are getting the win by dq . This was our first no show and while a win is a win, I'd rather play some matches and get experience. We aren't going to be heading to the playoffs at 3-2 so, I'd prefer play. Ah well.

Well, you have a chance if you get it to 6-2. There will be 8 or 9 guilds (of a total of something like 20) that will make it with a 6-2 score into the playoffs - if i`ve calculated right ...

I guess I just mean that while we want to do well, we're a rather new core team. The guild in the past has basically had open play for roughly 16+ people jumping in and out of spots all over the place. So I guess our expectations going in were just a little different than say someone who has been entrenched in the top 50 or so for a long time. So we don't necessarily expect to go undefeated, though that would be great, down the stretch. So, it would be nice to play good tournament style matches rather than win via no show.

Clan Roxor vs Clan Detained

We had a hell of a time scheduling and dT ended up all having to play at like 2am, but they were good sports about the whole thing and very understanding.

we lost 0-2, but they were close games

dT is probably going to win the tournament imho

It's a shame guilds are winning like this especially verse PnH. I can't imagine your team making much of an effort to coordinate games if you've won 4 by default thus far. Are you sticking fallback times to all your opponents? If so shame on you , if not shame on them.

I hope you did mention to them that you were playing with unregistered people during your practise sessions? Cos then they should have understood what you were doing... IDK, not my business.

i am very pissed about these games...its not the fact we lost,its the behavior of some [ew] members.the matches were arrange for sunday night.we had our first 2 games..the score 1-1.then the servers problems started and we had to stop for the day.the next day the 2 tournament leaders contacted its other to deside what to do.most of us work during week days so it was impossible to play during the day.so after many calls to each other we decided that we could make it at 10 pm gmt.whick is btw 12pm local time.one of us had to leave his job earlier to be on time.at the time i personally got back from work my guildmates were practicing on some new builds etc with other guild members that are not registered for the tournament.when we finally got the team that was going to play [ew] rdy we jumped in the gvg ladder for some practise before the match.it was 9 pm gmt.

we all got surprised when we show [ew] to be our rivals on our first practise gvg before the match.there exactly starts the problem.some members of the [ew] started acussing us of telling them lies and deliberatly postponing the match so as to get them tired...

ending my story i want to say that [ew] was the worst behaved guild we have encountered until now in the tournament and all of us were pissed off by their attitude (not all of thems of course).gg and yes...there is real life ...

We have logged the whole ladder game we played, yes i was raging at you because how could you say you can`t play now? OFC it seemed like you wanted to test build or something, and play for time! In the end your guild members started using swearwords against us then, not us, have it screened if you wanna see it

OFC we were pissed meeting you in ladder game when you just said, oh can`t play now, have to play 3 hours later, MAYBE you said, you weren`t even sure... which meant we had to be up for a much longer time than we actually wanted but k. Yes you said that you were actually not all Tourney players, but yea i didn`t belive you ~

Besides you are now admiting that you were playing with the GvG Team at that time that should have faced us!

Than again you were like, oh if we can`t play today we have to play at fallback time (fallbacktime? i was like wtf? even now most of your ppl werent back from work, how could you ever play at fallback time then?), and if we can`t play then we have to write Anet a mail and tell them our issues why we can`t play, for me that clearly sounded like playing on time to get a draw... if it wasn`t like that fine... in the end we did play, and it was nice match.

gl to you anyway for the rest of the tourney.

I only mentioned we'd taken hench as id previously posted the game we first had scheduled we couldn't make it due to eu servers going down and then couldn't fill spots on the next game time under short notice (Which could of also happened to you guys so no complaints as the time of the game was fine)

The first game we apologised for our build and right fully so, we played 4 Sf ele's, 1 monk and three hench. The 2nd game you countered the SF build near perfectly and deserved to win that match hands down. In the 3rd game another person came on and we were able to run 2 real monks (yay) and switiched the 4 SF ele's to 4 BoA sins (had NO builds we could run with 2 people down so just took in something fun) and unfortunatly for you guys you stuck with the Sf counter.

Wish we could of played you 8vs8, sure the games would of been great fun. Good luck in rest of tourny guys.
