I am gone for a week starting Jan 31, so please don't leave the scheduling until that late.

For the rest:

This week: bad, can't commit
This weekend: not sure yet, will update later on

Next week should be OK, around 5-6 PM EST for weekdays, not sure about weekend.
Not confirming anything yet, I will know for sure closer to the end of this week.

My times conflict heavily with Yz's, and if Rain's leaving, we should aim for this Sunday. How about Wreck?

Sunday 13:00 EST?

I'd prefer to play little earlier or little later, but I can do this time.
Title: Re: M27
Post by: rygorych on December 13, 2011, 08:58:36 am
Rain, absolutely no chance to playing next week? Sunday going to be tough as hell for me :(
Title: Re: M27
Post by: Wrecktify on December 13, 2011, 12:21:47 pm
I can confirm 1pm EST on Sunday.

I cant play Y.Zs weekday schedule because I work lol.  We will have to git r done on this weekend.

If we absolutely have to play on Sunday, I'd prefer to do it later, or a little earlier.

If we absolutely have to play on Sunday, I'd prefer to do it later, or a little earlier.

I really couldnt go any earlier than 12, since I will probably not be getting out of bed until that point anyway.  And we cant go later than 2pm because of yz's funky time restrictions.

Title: Re: M27
Post by: Wrecktify on December 13, 2011, 02:45:16 pm
I blame certain players who rule out half of the entire play period.... not naming any names of course.
Title: Re: M27
Post by: rygorych on December 13, 2011, 02:50:15 pm
Yeah this week is just bad for me, but the other 2 weeks would be fine, though obv not for other players.

I'll find out and confirm what time on Sunday I can do.

This is a tough one because YZ is pretty far east, Rain is in euro + leaving and me/Wreck work and shit. But seriously, Sunday is a biatch for me, no chance of anyone trying to accomodate any other day? I'd hate to come in knowing that I have limited time to play... I might just... not choose my main race, and instead...... purple sky someone and make the game end in 30 min!
Title: Re: M27
Post by: DarKNeSSCaLLs on December 13, 2011, 02:52:30 pm
What about Saturday? Same problems?
Title: Re: M27
Post by: rygorych on December 13, 2011, 03:16:14 pm
For me, yes, actually Saturday is probably even worse. Ideally, I'd like to play next week, or even the week after that, but if Rain absolutely can't do, we should of course aim for Sunday.

Rain, when are you back from your vacation?
Title: Re: M27
Post by: Rain on December 14, 2011, 08:36:46 am
First week of next year, dno day yet.

Post by: Rain on December 14, 2011, 09:13:37 am
Update: I can do anytime except zotac time(saturday) until thursday 22nd 06:00CET (thats AM for the americans who cant read a 24-hour time).
Title: Re: M27
Post by: rygorych on December 14, 2011, 09:13:57 am
Yeah this is going to suck. Admins want to pitch in as to what should we do? I can't find a window long enough for a game on Sunday.
Title: Re: M27
Post by: rygorych on December 14, 2011, 09:15:28 am
Oh OK the week of Mon/Tuesday/Wed/Thursday 22nd would be good. YZ, are you only available until 2PM EST on those days?
Title: Re: M27
Post by: y.zenchenko on December 14, 2011, 09:57:20 am
2pm est is ok. But plz be on time. No one-hour-to-start-a-game.
What day we play?
Title: Re: M27
Post by: rygorych on December 14, 2011, 10:14:28 am
Ya, I can't do 2PM EST weekday, I don't think Wreck can either, both of us working in the NA...

Absolute earliest I can do on a weekday is 4PM... alternatively, we can do 6-7AM if everyone else agrees, but I'll be sleepy as shit.
Title: Re: M27
Post by: Rain on December 14, 2011, 11:13:40 am
...How can you even mention thursday 2PM EST, when I clearly stated that its 06AM CET, try subtracting 6hours, its midnight @ wednesday 21st in EST.
Title: Re: M27
Post by: rygorych on December 14, 2011, 11:14:53 am
My bad. But I don't think it matters because of wreck/me conflict vs yz times... unless wreck wants to play early on in the morning on a weekday...
Title: Re: M27
Post by: DarKNeSSCaLLs on December 14, 2011, 02:46:45 pm
Please use EST time and military time (00:00 to 23:59) to avoid confusion.

I'll talk with the admins tonight and we'll see what we can come up with.
Title: Re: M27
Post by: rygorych on December 14, 2011, 02:55:36 pm
Thanks. This one is as difficult to schedule as a Hydro match because yz is much further east than the others. I'd love to play Wednesday/Thursday/Friday next week, but as I understand there is a conflict with either yz or rain or both.
Title: Re: M27
Post by: DarKNeSSCaLLs on December 14, 2011, 09:03:48 pm
Y.Z is there any chance you can play later than 14:00 EST on this Sunday?
Title: Re: M27
Post by: Rain on December 15, 2011, 11:15:20 am
Theres a possibility that Im able to play 28-29th, dont know yet, will update in 3-4hours if I remember and tomorrow if i dont.
Title: Re: M27
Post by: Wrecktify on December 15, 2011, 01:20:52 pm
The only weekday I can play before 18:00 EST is 12/26 (holiday).   Other than that, based on schedules, we will have to play weekends.  Im going out both Friday and Saturday night this week so its inconcievable I could play before 11:00 EST Saturday/Sunday morning.  Early afternoon would be best.

Post by: DarKNeSSCaLLs on December 15, 2011, 10:29:36 pm
In order to fix the scheduling issues, w8man will be coming to this match (M27) and replacing Rygorych (ebo), who will be joining the other players in M28.

w8man and Y.Z's times match almost perfectly, so let's plan for THIS SUNDAY AT 14:00 EST
Title: Re: M27
Post by: y.zenchenko on December 15, 2011, 11:45:24 pm
Confirmed.

p.s. Darkness, you do a great job admining this. I appreciate that.

Unconfirming.  Due to a work emergency I will be unable to play this Sunday.  I will be located on the Westcoast, so my schedule for the following week will be as follows:

Sunday: After 23:00 EST
Monday-Thursday: After 18:00 EST
Friday: No Availability
Saturday: Full Availability
Sunday: Full Availability

Monday-Thursday: After 18:00 EST
Friday: No Availability

Wreck that is an issue, the entire reason that w8man was switched with Rygorych is because Rain needs this game to be played by this Sunday

THIS GAME MUST BE PLAYED SATURDAY (TOMORROW) OR SUNDAY

So unless you guys can figure out a time to play tomorrow, this will be played on Sunday with a sub.

Does anyone have an issue with Saturday 14:00 EST?
Title: Re: M27
Post by: DarKNeSSCaLLs on December 16, 2011, 02:50:08 pm

Like I said I do have time until tuesday evening. But I guess that doesnt matter since the others cant play during week.

Y.Z/w8man's schedule makes this not possible, sadly. So unless you are available to play either next weekend or the weekend starting 12/30, this will have to be played Sunday.
Title: Re: M27
Post by: Rain on December 16, 2011, 04:54:19 pm
sunday it is then
Title: Re: M27
Post by: Wrecktify on December 16, 2011, 06:47:32 pm
Im sorry but this is absolute horseshit.

Youre force scheduling a game in the first week of a three week match because I cant play.  So youre punishing me, when I will available for the rest of the three weeks, while Rain is only available for one.  The person with 7/21 days availability should be accomodated, yes, but should not be able to jam their stupid schedule down the rest of our throats. 

Explain please.
Title: Re: M27
Post by: FML|WorpeX on December 16, 2011, 07:03:28 pm
I have to agree with Wrecktify on this. You can't sub a person in the first week of scheduling and completely screw him out of this round, especially when his schedule is free and accommodating except for one mishap.

We need to find a different solution because this is not it. I hate swapping players into different matches, but I hate screwing people over even more. So we should do another player swap with someone who is available to play the match on Sunday and put Wrecktify in that other persons place.
Title: Re: M27
Post by: DarKNeSSCaLLs on December 16, 2011, 08:40:40 pm
Bah sorry, I'm an idiot  :icon_frown:, you are correct Wrecktify + Worpex. Sorry, I'm still new to this, and since Worpex is open with another swap, I'll see what is the best choice for it.

Still plan on playing for this match on Sunday (hopefully), I will send a PM or two to people who can make it in place of Wrecktify.
Title: Re: M27
Post by: FML|WorpeX on December 16, 2011, 09:36:41 pm
Its no problem Darkness, you're doing good. :D This turned out to be a tough scheduling week it seems, difficult schedules. Glad we have the extra week to play with.
Title: Re: M27
Post by: Rain on December 17, 2011, 05:41:58 am
Well to be honest, Im available for alot more than 1week.

12th-21st and 27th/28th. Thats 12 days of 21. And I also was available for pretty much 24/7 on anyday, so I would say scheduling with me is the 'easiest' considering that nobody else can play on weekdays.
Title: Re: M27
Post by: y.zenchenko on December 17, 2011, 06:39:46 am
Are we doing it @ this week? Today ~2pm est is ok for me.
tommorow 2 pm est isn't pretty good but playable.

fyi: I will be gone @ Dec 29 for 7-10 days.

Post by: Rain on December 17, 2011, 12:43:56 pm

Title: Re: M27
Post by: Wrecktify on December 17, 2011, 12:51:13 pm
So instead of getting this over with youre going to go play a solo tourney, win the first two rounds then lose when you face a pro.

Y.Z cant play past 2pm.  Drop Zotac and come ffa.

its the finals of zotac, not early rounds. Also I enjoy this ''solo tourney'' alot more than I do FFA. Also already beat UNA so I guess im doing fine.

So.... y.z never showed and Rain is at ZOTAC, unless either show up soon, we're gonna have to play at a different time (I had a sub lined up).

Apparently Sunday is not possible anymore, start posting your schedules for next week (Monday - Saturday).

@Rain, we may have to sub you, I'll try and get you into another match, but to be 100% honest with all this shit going on, it may not be possible, so be prepared for that.

I understand, but its still really dumb cuz if you count the hours that I could've played in the first 1,5 weeks im pretty sure that adds up to more than the others' total. Also he confirmed -.-
Title: Re: M27
Post by: DarKNeSSCaLLs on December 17, 2011, 03:42:51 pm
Like I said I'm doing the best I can, these weeks suck due to Christmas and I gotta work with what I have, I will do my best to swap you into a match you can play, but the reality is with the deadline coming up for when you are leaving, it may turn out that it can't be done.

For now, please provide your full schedule until the day you leave, so that I can try and find something suitable for you.

Also he confirmed

w8man did not confirm Sunday, we assumed he would be alright with it but we couldn't get in contact with him. Again, we are working with what we have, there's not much more I can do.
Title: Re: M27
Post by: Rain on December 17, 2011, 03:46:44 pm
Like I told 10 times, my schedule is ANY TIME from the start of the playweek until wednesday 21st 06:00 CET.

+ 28th + 29th.
Title: Re: M27
Post by: DarKNeSSCaLLs on December 17, 2011, 04:01:13 pm
Alright here's what we're gonna do, it sucks and I don't like it, but I've tried contacting people and either they can't swap or I just can't get a hold of them.

Rain and I will be swapping spots, I'll be in M27 now and Rain will be in M25, playing tomorrow @ 14:00 EST. We both have somewhat even points so it's ok, we'll be playing vs some people who've we already played before but at this point it doesn't really matter, I just can't wait for this holiday weekend to pass us by so that scheduling isn't a hassle again.
Title: Re: M27
Post by: Rain on December 17, 2011, 04:07:40 pm
Im fine with that. Dont know if you didnt realise it or intentionally dont wanna put me in same game with starshaped, but had you swapped me into m28 instead of rygo, the game would have probably been already played considering that most of them seemed to be able to play anytime.

That was originally what I wanted to do, I was gonna swap you and Starshaped, however when I talked with Ugri we eventually decided to go with the way we did. Now the swap with rygo and w8man already happened and M28 already has a somewhat confirmed time, so I'm not going to mess with that again, had I know earlier that w8man could not play on Sunday, I would've been able to revert the swap in time.

It's all a big fucking mess, let's just leave it at that, I'm going to call it my initiation rite as an admin  :icon_mrgreen:
Title: Re: M27
Post by: DarKNeSSCaLLs on December 17, 2011, 04:50:20 pm
As for my schedule, weekday times from yz/w8man don't fit with me (except Friday since I'm off due to Christmas, but w8man can't play then).

I can play early Saturday, Dec 24th, if everyone else is OK with it.
Title: Re: M27
