Quote: This is outrageous BETA. You not only you don't give a crap about making others wait all this time and now instead of simply asking me or checking a few pages back you quit. What makes you think I'm going to accept such disrespect to me and the others? Or did you think you were doing me a favour? Do tell.
The latter. And I've been scovering the thread in hopes of finding snow out, but I failed to find any clue other than "These eight signed up for the cup. Go fight!" which ain't much of a direction really...

It's simple as that, a second opportunity for those who lost in the first phase. When you joined I had made that crystal clear, it was on the page you signed up or the previous one. It was me doing you a favour - not specifically you - so acting like a ungrateful brat is not quite the right approach. When you join a tourney you are supposed to have the minimum responsibility and commitment to participate instead of inventing ridiculous excuses, it's not a revolving door where people come and go as they please. If you don't like how it works you simply don't join and that's that.

Quote: Because I have not found out any form of organization about the cup of misfortune I simply decided to call it quits and forfeit. I'm out of here! See Ya all in HoMM6!
I believe i have left you more than 25-30 messages on hamachi (you never answered to any of them), added you @ msn (you never accepted my invitation), tried to communicate with you about our matches in any possible way and you're talking about lack of organization?
Edit: Locksley/PitLord/WitchHunter i will be available the whole day for our matches...please poke me @ msn or hamachi

My misfortune in the misfortune cup continues against Ramses
First match was my Fortress against Ramses' Inferno. Unfortunately for me my Rune patriarchs ended up behind his seducers, and he was able to hem in my berserkers and totally over run me. Plus he had power of speed and endurance, so I really had no chance
Second match was my Necropolis vs his Dungeon. He was enlightened and with 23 spell power and a ton of mana he finished me off quickly

What WitchHunter said...
Couldn't have said it better myself. Pretty matches out there.
1st match, WH was pretty unlucky having his priests playing after my seducers.. Seeing that rune of exorcism i decided to go by buffing myself up instead of cursing him.. game crashed after a few rounds but by then it was over.
2nd match, my sacrificial blackies won that one
That said, thanks a lot for the games...
Now waiting for PitLord and Locksley.

*raises eyebrow*
A) I have not been on hamachi for awhile
B) I have not gotten any message saying "Person X added you to his contact list. Will you accept"
C) I should probably not have mentioned lack of organization as it was not exactly what I meant but I had no other words for it...

I'm not sure where in my post I sounded like an ungrateful brat as I really did not mean to sound like anything other than 'It was fun, you guys should've fun and I got to leave now'. Should probably have chosen different words in retrospect...
Quote: When you join a tourney you are supposed to have the minimum responsibility and commitment to participate instead of inventing ridiculous excuses, it's not a revolving door where people come and go as they please. If you don't like how it works you simply don't join and that's that.
Right. This is the first tournament I have ever been part of where someone takes 'I'm leaving now' this hard Elvin. Look, if I have in any way offended you then believe me I am sorry about it! But the way I see it:
I have not participated in any fights so no one have gotten any points for beating me or lost any points for losing to me.
Seeing as it was 'go out and fight in no specific order' there are no brackets left empty and my withdrawal does not mean that someone automatically wins/go up to the next round of the cup.
There are 10 days left of the tournament, I am drowing in homework and preparations for exams and test and is generally not in a good mood because of housefire and I am taking it out on everyone around me(again, I am sorry if I offended anyone).
So...can I go now or...?

I was actually seeing you online the past week almost 24'7 and always pm'ing you.. even ping'ed you in case of a hamachi false positive.
Also... an msn contact icon going by the name "ringofruleathotmailcom" is grey almost 2 weeks now...
Anyway..i don't mean to argue any further.. it just sounded bad talking about lack of organization when I, personally bothered you a snowload of times about our games.
Peace...

BETA you should understand that by coming and going as you please without a serious reason other than you just felt like it you are indirectly crapping over mine and the others' effort. Certainly doesn't help if your excuse is bad organization and that you were doing me a favour - the latter borders on insult even. Do I actually feel insulted? Hardly, I am not the type. But pissed at the way you handled it? Yes I am.
Had you simply specified that your schedule has gotten hectic and you are unable to play your games due to unforeseen circustances I wouldn't have given it a second thought but what you actually said sounded nothing like that. For one you had already told me that you'd forgotten about the tourney so anything else comes off as a made up excuse. Also I had seen you on hamachi more than a few times. As far as bad organization goes I had made it as clear as possible the moment everyone joined.
Anyways I hope you can see my point of view now. No hard feelings.

Hi!
To all of you in the Cup of Misfortune, I am sorry to say I left the tournament in a post a few pages ago. But perhaps there is a small chance that we may play this week?
The main reason for me to leave was that, besides my essay that needed much time, in two weekends when I had planned to play I just had to cancel everything and deal with many unexpected matters. Another reason is that my new course had three times more lectures than the former one. It has been two very busy weekends and a busy week between them.
Anyway, this week is better and I can play duels at the following times (GMT+1, Sweden):
Monday (today!) 22-
Tuesday 09-24
Wednesday 09-15 (must end at 15) and 20-24
Thursday 09-12 (must end at 12) and 15,30-18 (must end at 18)
If some of you study at home, come home early or don't work etc. it would be great to play during day time, otherwise it is impossible for me to play all six? duels and I might as well leave the tournament for good now.
I don't know but it is likely that some of you live in a timezone far away from Europe, which probably means that the weekends are the only time you can play, which means that it is impossible for you to duel me. If there is one person living in for example USA and everyone else is living in Europe and can play when I can, I may play against the American later at night if it's necessary.
So, everyone please let me know in a post here if and when you can play, as soon as possible. I will also log in at MSN, HC and Hamachi when I can play.
Have a nice day!

Thanks for the update. I wouldn't worry about playing everyone as it is not an easy task till Friday and nobody could have further expectations of you - by making yourself available this week you've done all you could. Soon I'll count the wins/losses for the cup.

I came home a bit earlier and I'm ready to play!
@Pitlord, it is actually quite impossible for me to play after 11.30 on Thursday. Those group-works are so annoying, takes a lot of time for nothing. Perhaps you can another time too?
@Everyone, tomorrow (Tuesday) I will be available from 11.30, due to group-work.

===== Cup of Misfortune =====
Jabanoss Vs Locksley
Game 1 was me as Stronghold versus Locksley's Sylvan. I had both Enlightenment and Shouting, so with my massive stats and powerful cries I was able to slay every last elf. (and treant...)
Game 2 was my Academy versus Locksley's Sylvan(again -.-). He had a offensive build with light magic, and I had Destro. I messed things up, and Locksley had massive luck.
I was completely exposed and with no defense or tactic to protect me I was screwed from the start.(and my mistakes ofc didn't help...)
Anyways, Score:
Jabanoss 1 - 1 Locksley

regarding the the misfortune cup, I have some pretty unfortunate news- i'm still swamped with schoolwork again and my finals start next week, so I probably won't be able to finish the duels with most of you. I didn't think school would've piled on the work like this (i have an assignment due tuesday, a term paper and presentation due Wednesday and another assignment worth 10% of my mark in a course on Thursday), but the only day I will be available will be Friday, which is when the tournament ends. I would like to obviously honor the commitment that I made to the misfortune cup, but I really have no time whatsoever for it this week and i've got bigger issues to worry about, like my grades. This has nothing to do with my terrible play in the tournament, but more about my terrible problems with school. I really hate doing this and I'm not too happy with the fact that i'm probably not going to be able to honor this commitment. Sorry everyone.

About the games
Duel 1
My effort to be as defensive as possible didn't work, I should've attacked more. I had Suppress Light but clever Mr. Nocturnal used Divine Guidance that saved his mana.
As I said on p. 22; "I hate the shorties. I hate playing against them and I hate playing as them. And I hate playing against the treehuggers."
Duel 2
I kind of knew that I would lose when I saw that I had 5 knowledge, no PM, and no frenzy. Nocturnal made good tactical use of ice magic.
If someone else wants to try to defeat me I'm available the whole evening.
