After a very messy set, we've somehow ended up with only one default, mainly because roughly 20 of the 57 games were played in the final hours.

I would highly recommend that people dont leave it to the very last day to complete games! When we do defaults, we often get complaints about receiving very few points from them. If you leave games to the last minute and then encounter complications (, thats your fault and you will get very few points.

There were some positives though- only one of the killer games needed to be played on the last day!

Please remember to post results along with breaks on the results thread, otherwise they dont get updated!

Finally, tonight is the deadline for round 1 of the Players Championship. If your game is unplayed and you want to go into the next round, you must post to show interest. Otherwise, you will be defaulted out, even if your opponent has been offline a month!

Good luck!

Ok got the ball rolling, so to speak, with a win in my carom game against mich. He definitely wasn't at his best which I took advantage of in the first 2 frames and I don't think he really got into it (luckily for me) but they were good games over all and both of us hit a 5 run.

sorry guys x

Don't be sorry! That's a very nice 2 points from a good player, it's nice to see some results coming in, thanks for getting it played so quickly pac

He deserved a draw at least tbh, very good player and great sportsman you got there!!

Thanks fuunky, yes he's a true gent!

w_hoolahan and I have arranged our killer match for Friday (tomorrow) night around 7.30/8pm. vvhite has arranged to play his game with d_legend for around 7pm so he's going to play in killer, if anybody else would like to take the other space in that game let me know

does mixed matches have to start with arcade,then reg ect ect or can we play in any order.

btw ,to "my" team..there have been 4 tourneys "matches"arranged so far ,i havent been picked for any of them except for a last min sub..it looks to me like the same people are being picked for tourneys.

.i.e there was a clan match i was not in team and a cup compititon, again i was not picked but the same guys were picked for both events..whats that about?

..its not as if there much better ,infact sometimes worse than the guys being left out,including me.
i feel like the last guy to be picked when choosing teams to play tourneys

davie, a.k.a timpark

Any order but Arc/Reg/Orig in disagreement

You asked me about this in pm and I answered you. You always do end up getting a game and I picked you for the lineup in the pre season friendlies and you left the game 4-0 down (it was power so 2-0) said you were going to the shop and never came back and that was the only one of our games left unfinished. Then in your game against joeyy in the last set you left the game before he had even finished at the table which evidently irritated him because he sent me a message about it. I want everyone to have fun, and yes I do like to pick the more reliable players who are in with the best chance so I make my own decision based on whoever we are facing in the present set. Only 6 people can play in each set and 4 are subs. You will get a game but at the same time I also want to be able to trust you won't be rude and leave because it reflects badly on the clan. It's really nothing personal.

yes your right,i did leave in the friendly at 4-0,but your wrong about the second game..we never played original as joeyy said "thats it mate" as he was winning 4-0 .. so please dont make me look as if i dident bother playing ,i was asking why same players get picked for a clan match and friendly ,while some of us dont get a look in,"as in me"..the other players might not say ,but i will
nothing personal sweet cheeks x

I don't think joeyy would have said that's it mate at 4-0 because even if it was 4-0 you still had the opportunity to get 2 points from it as all 6 frames must be played, and that's a rule. Hence why after i post each fixture I put a note at the bottom saying '6 frames of your game type, if mixed, 2 of arc 2 of reg 2 of orig'. And nobody else would say anything because everybody else is in the fixture, in atleast 1 set. I pick whoever I feel is best matched up in that particular game type depending on which clan we're facing in that set. And when we're playing the tougher clans, it's only logical to use the stronger players, and in my eyes, not the players who are likely to get frustrated and leave before it's over or while their opponent is still at the table 'sweet cheeks'.

And IF joeyy did say 'that's it' after only 4 frames, then telling me when the fixture is over and we've begun the next one is a little futile, you even posted 6-0 on the forum. How could it be 6-0 if you didn't play the last 2 frames?

might not have been joeyy,might have been the other guy,it was the last guy who i played said ,,thats it m8 we dont have to go on,,..
if u dont belive me i dont care,,,sweety pie

You're right I don't believe that, if you were under the impression the game was over saying 'im going to the shops ill be back in 10' would be pointless, evidently you said it knowing full well there was one last frame to be played.. Your opponent then waited for 45 minutes for you to return and pmed couch. You didn't come back at all, and the game was left as 'unfinished' for both clans. It may have only been a pre season friendly but the games during that period are played for a purpose, as a little bit of practise and for everyone to get a feel for how things work, as well as for captains to get a glimpse of who is reliable and who possibly isn't.
So yes I did leave you out of the original lineups for the first season fixture, knowing you'd get a game either way, which you did.. And lo and behold you left that game early too. So yeah, I left you out of the original lineup for this fixture also. You have pmed me and asked me about it, and I answered you and explained why, and also explained regardless of original lineups, everyone always ends up getting a game. So I'm not sure why you continue asking me on the forum, because the answers will remain the same.
And nobody has been 'left out'. People like couch, lcfc, rossunited are all in the fixtures to play atleast once, because they are the people who although they have have hectic schedules and minimal time sometimes, always make the effort to get their games played when they can, with the best of sportsmanship.

And joeyy was the last person that you played. You played once in the pre season friendlies, and once in the opening fixture of the season. You left both games early. So neither of those two opponents told you 'that's it it's over', because one of them waited for 45 minutes for you to return from your expedition to the local shops, and the other was still at the table when you left.

What you don't seem to be able to comprehend is that when people leave early and games are left unfinished it not only reflects badly on the rest of your clan but it's also immensely unfair on the opposing clan, as completion of all games with no defaults gives people 7, often very much needed, bonus points, which are not rewarded to either clan then because the game has to go to the default panel, and they may be awarded the win, but they miss out on the extra points, as do your own team, all because one player is losing, gets frustrated and rather selfishly, not to mention unsportingly , leaves. Is it any wonder I'd rather have you as a substitute if it means avoiding these problems at all costs? .... This could go on and on.. If you want to constantly question my decisions and the reasoning behind it you're welcome to message me but I really think I've been more than fair and clear here.

Clan killer against NA.. vvhite, me and Aled vs erigert, hoolahan and d_legend.. first game was a bit on the eek side since Aled had laptop issues and froze and was booted but vvhite and I stuck together until there was just me left and then well, the rests history lol.. Aled managed t make it back for the second game where the lineup looked daunting as we were weaved between their players but somehow it managed to work out for us and we got the 3-0 win.. end result.
