[Spoiled_Milk]

Anyhow, will I get placed?

He's one of my random speedrunning friends that signed up for FFR.

Learn to not be so hasty when pointing fingers, Middie.

EDIT: in case you need further convincing,

Midnight you should be ashamed of yourself.
Pretty pathetic representation of the FFR community.

I'm gonna address this really quickly.

1. I was pointed out this mistake last evening and was going to have it checked. You had no reason to cause a scene you had many methods other than trying to mock me in this thread.
2. You of all people right now, have no grounds go even try and tell me not to point fingers. You could have taken other measures to notify me and let me know of my mistake, but you chose to not say anything. You are pointing fingers at me for jumping to a conclusion that is actually not an unreasonable one. I've never made this mistake before, and I won't make it again.
3. If you actually knew anything or had an interest in the community, you'd have known that I am not a representative of this community. I am a representation of myself. You should be ashamed for also jumping to a generalized conclusion that is completely misguided.

So for causing a scene I'm going to make this very clear: You are both banned permanently from partaking in any future unofficial event I chose to host. You do not get to waste my time, attempt to mock and insult me, and get away cleanly. That is unacceptable. I made it very clear cut for you ways to have settled this outside of the thread and that I don't tolerate this sort of behavior in my events. Do not disregard my rules. By joining you have agreed to them, which is why I am extremely precise and bother typing them in the first place.

Edit: In fact the rule you broke to be precise is the "respect the host" rule, which is a very standard rule in my events.

I would apologize for my mistake, but as your responses have been outrageous, I do not feel obligated to do so, and I have zero intention of ever apologizing to either of you.

I do however apologize to cloud strife, as he is a person who I falsely accused and had nothing to do with the situation.

As to the rest of the updates here is what is going on:

1. I am extending the signups to end on Friday @ 11:59PM EST. I'd like to get more participants.
2. I will be flighting D5 into two halves, which will be updated sometime this evening.
3. The tourney now begins on Saturday @12:00AM EST.

I thank everyone for their patience and interest in the tourney.

Yes lets attack the host of our tournament, y'know that guy who's spending all his personal time and energy placing people, making sure people don't cheat etc.etc. Just so everyone can have a good time.

NOT LIKE HE CAN DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT

You know what that means, boys?

Dohoho... looks like this Snivy just entered the games.

[U.N. Owen]

Even though I'll likely be eliminated first round, I'm in.

It honestly is more time consuming than anything. I want to run a good tourney, and I don't like kicking people. In fact that's the reason I didn't kick Brubster in the first place despite what I thought. Just I have no tolerance for just not saying it somewhere else. I don't care if they're mad ect and I don't mind being told they dislike the way it's going. Feedback like that is actually really useful. I just as I said, have no tolerance for that attitude. You want to hate the community as a whole because of just me? That's wrong. Hate the community because it sucks as a whole. Not because one guy falsely accused you of being someone you aren't. I could rant for days on this, but I have an update to do.

I love you midi

Dang, Xiz... that's just fricken adorable.

Does the Cubone want a muffin? I got a spare!

[DarkManticoreX2]

Yep I agree. Judging the community by one unit of itself is extrememly shortsighted and really just feels like a desire to troll.

That being said, I've run one of these in the past, and a ton of TWG's. So I know how time consuming the effort is and how annoying it is when one person or another just decides to throw crap around for no reason when easier avenues to repair things are available.

So in advance thanks for all the time you're putting into this.
And move me to d3 =S

[Kirbyman1990]

Even through I'm nowhere near D5 and it won't affect me, I was wondering what "flighting" is. Keep seeing "Flighting D5" mentioned.

[Charu]

Think of it as another division.

In flight, pretty much seperates D5 so it is now...

D5A D5B.

D5A being the higher end.

D5B being the lower end.

And here is how the D5 Split will be:

D5A is going to be the borderline D6 players, that just simply put would stand very little chance. But they're also too potent for D5.
D5B is going to be the players who could go D5, and too strong for D4.
D6 is becoming the D7 we all knew it would be. If you're here, RIP.

You know it hasn't started yet right? I'm not perfect here. If I mess up 3 people or so that's actually a rather good thing it wasn't more.

I'll reexamine the level ranks but next time use a PM or profile comment or something other than the thread.

[popsicle_3000]

so are sponcon scores split up now as well?
