I believe it is a 2 week time frame between the exchange of each Batch. I believe the second one was to be sent out September 11th.
I already have in the pull-down menu, how the games will be divided.
And let me get back to you on the forfeit. I was just thinking that Atlantis get's an extra point. But if I have to actually decide a game, then let's wait til after Batch 1. I will likely choose a quads game.
Doc_Brown wrote:Just a suggestion: if the forfeit stands, I'd suggest it be applied to the tie-breaker game. Since the alleged offense was against the TO, why not apply the penalty on the one TO-mandated game? That solves the problem with 62 games and no one loses out on any home games.

Also, all he had to do was hit reply to the pm that I sent him.
I am sure he is not lax in communication; however, he did overlook my pm. I'm sure it happens to all of us at times. Remember back in NCC4 when we were first setting it up, Genoke pm'd me and never received a reply. It was because I wrote out my reply, but accidentally hit preview instead of send (not the first time I've done that before either.) I never realized what I had done until Genoke said in the thread that I hadn't yet responded to him. I checked and sure enough, it wasn't in my sent box. I felt pretty dumb about that, but oh well. Stuff Happens.

I confirm that i'll be the primary contact for Atlantis!
The reason you never got my pm is already know by you and chemefreak (actually he's the one who found out). Not sure why you didn't mentioned it here. But it seems that you prefer to pretend you didn't knew anything.
Your name is spelled VIOIET but i always read it as VIOLET (l little L and I big i)
unfortunately there is a player with the name Violet (has only played 8 games, which i checked out today) otherwise i would've got an error by that name.
maybe if i add you on my friendslist this won't happen again....
sent me a pm with a nice joke and i'll add you!
If I was the host of this thread and i wouldn't had received any reply so close too the deadline...i would've sent another pm: kind of remember. Why didn't you?
You just waited until chemefreak woke up...
I must admit on my part i was a bit leazy for checking everything out for the last week so i pm'd chemefreak and Violet (the wrong you) this friday, because the deadline came very close:
sent it to Voilet and chemefreak:
first batch RA vs ATL

Hey Violet,
first batch needs to be exchanged in 2 days and still no communication about it. even no war thread...
we have to play 3 batches, how about we play each kind of game type in 1 batch, like:
1st batch: dubs
2nd batch: trips + tiebreaker
3rd batch: quads
we keep all the settings as written in CCup4 thread.
i think this is the easiest solution, but maybe you think different?
conclusion: there was an error in communication from me to you (wrong name spelled) and a bit of lack for taking initiative in pm's when deadline came closer.
result: chemefreak stepped in as a referee to keep his schedule on the right track.
ps: (reason for my leaziness: my baby daughter is in a coma as i speak 1 week now) people on my FB can confirm my situation. Nonetheless i keep active in CC, taking my turns, sitting for a few players and trying to get our homegames done.
Looking out for others tasks against a deadline surely wasn't one of my priorities! I hope you understand...
VioIet wrote:That is a beautiful little girl! Genoke, I am very sorry to hear about your baby. I am sure many people on CC will keep you in your thoughts and prayers right now. It is understandable that your priorities lay elsewhere right now, and I think you will find the clan community to be very understanding and supportive of that.
VioIet wrote:Also, you had multiple pm's in your inbox from me over the last two months, so I'm surprised you didn't just hit reply to one of them.
VioIet wrote:I figured one pm was enough. All three of us (chemefreak, you, me) knew that this was coming up and I think all three share some blame in the lapse of communication.
VioIet wrote:The reason I didn't try to contact you again:
I actually thought it was a bit funny, that after the whole NCC4 drama, and you and your clan complaining about me being uncommunicative, that no one contacted me or replied to me. I didn't push the response as I was enjoying the irony.
I figured that you didn't reply to me purposely because of the issue in NCC4, and some of the bad feelings that arose over that. I knew that's why you were unwilling to negotiate.
Likewise, I wasn't wanting to pm you over and over again. I did not want to communicate with Atlantis any more than necessary.
Remember, this happened August 11th, the day after I was forced to start the games in a 4 hour time span, or have three forfeits, so feelings were not good or amiable.
VioIet wrote:Also by nature, I am just not one to get over-excited or concerned or anything like that over a lack of a pm. I tend to just let things go and not worry about much. I'm very easy-going in that regard and my lax attitude can actually piss some people off (the ones who do care, that is). Oh well.
VioIet wrote:We have privileges so RA will try to put our games up as soon as possible. Chemefreak is giving us until tomorrow (August 26th). However, I am aiming to get our games up today. Chemefreak wanted the war to start on August 25, so will try to ensure that. If so, then there will technically be nothing that RA did wrong and no delay whatsoever to the schedule that chemefreak wanted.
VioIet wrote:Again for the most important issue- you do have RA's support, thoughts and prayers regarding your baby's health.
If you will need some time to get your games situated, no worries, as I am not one to care. I know your little girl needs you right now, so take all the time off that you need. This is just a game and a recreational activity/hobby, so it can wait.
I concur with Keefie, that what you do is amazing. You have a family to take care of; a clan that you lead single-handedly; your games to manage, plus a lot of other real life stuff. You should be applauded for that.

If there's anything else, any of us can do to help you or your family, just tell us! I have a nearly 5 year old daughter, too, so I know how the love for a child is able to change ... everything. When she's healthy again, tell us and I will be happy to drink one or more beers to celebrate with you from Austria, I will organize Janomike and sarrt, too and then we'll send you a photo as proof

WTF?! Boggy, be a man and not a midget for once in your life and play god damn tiebreaking game.
