The Official 2nd "No BS" Tournament +++ Continuation +++

Dear community,

as you know, unfortunately the highly anticipated PvP tournament had been interrupted due to server failures.

Cryptic should be aware that a lot of us in the PvP community had eagerly awaited this tournament. The participating teams put a lot of effort to prepare. The disappointment is huge accordingly.

As host I am particularly sorry, and now I want to make my contribution to make the best out of this suboptimal situation.


The tournament will continue as follows:

The participating teams now have the freedom to agree on a date with the opposing team for the remaining group matches. So, contact the other team captain and make it happen! You now have time to carry out your games until Saturday, 18th May. Tournament rules are still in effect of course. Please notify me of the match results.

For the two teams (Lag-Industries and 9th Fleet IDIC) that could not make it last Saturday , it means they are back in the race! ;) If Lag-Industries or 9th Fleet IDIC waive participation, please notify me immediately so that another team can move up to their spot!


Clarification:

You now have Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday as well to conduct your remaining matches. Some teams have two matches left to finish, while some have three matches left. I recommend trying to contact other teams captain to negotiate time and date. The @handles can be found in this post. Target date for all the matches to be finished will be Saturday, 18th May, 17:00 UCT.

In case some matches have not been played by then, I am asking the respective teams to be present on Saturday, 17:00 UCT on the PVP Bootcamp TeamSpeak in order to finish the remaining matches. If a team is a no-show, the match is considered lost for them. If both teams are not present, the match is considered a loss for both.

When the group-phase of this tournament is completed, the semi-finalists shall meet with the host for negotiating time and date for the semi-finals and the final match.



4 groups were drawn on saturday:

Group 1:
Alpha-Zero
Hero's of the 11th Order
1st Column
[Lag Industries]

Group 2:
Apocalypse
Temporal Incursion
Sad Pandas
X

Group 3:
Division Hispana
UFP Squadron 47
Ad Infinitum
[9th Fleet IDIC]

Group 4:
Nova Core
Ad Infinitum Rockers
Omega-Flotte
Inner Circle


The following matches have already finished on last Saturday:

Alpha Zero - Hero's of the 11th Order

Apocalypse - Temporal Incursion

Omega Fleet - Inner Circle

The games that were interrupted because of server failure, will be repeated.

    OK, we lost to Apocalypse. I wish I could have blamed server lag but instead we were experiencing player lag instead. Sad Panda's its OK if you would rather throw in the towel, then face us, REALLY its OK, lol. The turney may have been called due to the lag, but it was great seeing so many great fleets out there. Wish we could face every one! See you all this Saturday!

    Just to make clear, no team has cheated. There was a a misunderstanding for which I, Hank the moron, am to blame. Let's just say, oversight on my part regarding the rules (ambiguous phrasing).

    Both teams have reacted in a very mature manner and accepted my apologies, and they have agreed to rematch. Again, I apologize for the inconvenience I caused. :(

    Good way to keep the tournament rolling hank, it seemed to be the only solution left :(

    Blame all on Cryptic, again thanks for putting effort in making PvP fun and giving it some objective :):)

    Excellent work keeping it alive Hank and allowing the teams to coordinate their own matches due to the hick ups also a good idea.

    I will be contacting the Team leaders in my group tonight to organise a time and date as we were also struggling with members being able to participate on the saturday.

    Ill make sure to in game mail with the results if we are able to organise some times.

    Thanks again and as always these tournaments and the OPvP Community will always have mine and 1st columns support.

    So, again let me confirm this beacose like I said, mine english is not that good.
    We have 2 ways of playing this:
    1- Coordinating betwine captains
    2- If we cant coordinate, we go next saturday at the same time as last one and play with our rivals.

    Is that correct?
    I ask this beacose I know that for many of mine members, playing in the week is nearly impossible.
