Rotom-W made me lose everything game 2 and redeemed itself game 3.

So what's the deal with round two? If it where up to me I'd give Snivy a pass for this round since based on his and Xehanort's VMs it is Xehanort's fault that they didn't/couldn't battle, plus if you eliminate them both round two will be weird with only 3 people.

I'll give them until tomorrow morning to finish their battle. If not, I'll award snivy trainer with the win and proceed to the next round since he was the only one providing an explanation.

Meanwhile, in order not to delay this anymore, let's move on with the semifinals matchup.

========================================

The quarter-final results are:

Ponymon vs. Fire Hero [2-0]
WhyBuffet vs. Kitt Geekazaru [1-2]
LynxForte vs. Romeo32 [1-2]
snivy trainer vs. Young Xehanort [Withdrew]

========================================

The semifinals matchup is:

Ponymon vs. snivy trainer
Kitt Geekazaru vs. Romeo32 [0-2]

All matches should be played in a "Best of 3" format. By the end of each set, winners get 15 FP for the win and advance to the next round.

The matches shall be arranged by PM/VM and shall be done until the morning of Tuesday 24th February. If for some reason you find yourself unable to battle before the deadline, please PM me explaining the situation. It is your responsibility to warn me in time.

========================================​

Good luck to you all ;)

To be honest it was tough for both myself and Young Xehanort since we're about 6 hours away from one another timezone-wise, so his optimal times are too late for me and my optimal times are too early for him. I think perhaps for future references we should ask for GMT's as part of the sign up form, to put people with close enough timezones together. Of course for finals/semi-finals this won't work but then that's the finals. It'll get things done easier I feel.

I agree it may be useful to add that, but the reason I ended the deadline on the weekend was so that people could still find common times without having school/work messing up. If that doesn't work for some reason it's a matter of warning me and we'll see from there. It's not hard to find time on weekends unless you need to go away or are too busy. In that case, just PM me "Look, I have to go to "someplace" this weekend and can't battle, can you delay it for next week?". Otherwise it gets troublesome for everybody else...

As long as we're waiting I might as well ask: how exactly is 3rd place determined? Obviously 1st and 2nd are whoever make finals, but do both the losers of semis get 3rd?

Due to unforeseen calls of education, I report that I must drop out of the tournament, I don't want to hold you all back. It may be a while before I can consistently be active, but I will give it my all.

Additional comments: There was a ridiculous amount of hax in my favor, it would've been a lot closer had I not been so lucky. Maybe karma will bite me in the finals.

Confirming, although the first match contained a lot of hax on you which I'm very sorry for, but it was fun overall.

Well I lost both my matches, no idea on score but I'm sure Romeo32 will tell you. GG, lots of misses on my part cost me both games I think, and Scarf Magneton is a menace.
