Suppose you have two people in a game in which whoever spends the most time playing will win(I.E. it's neigh impossible to lose).

So the first person plays and gets a score and the next person beats it and so on.

Now let's say person A has played 4/5 rounds to reach a good score to win. The person B plays the 4th round just so he won't get DQ'd and to have(if neither play) person A need to play before him.

Basically if one person has a lower score but doesn't have to play before the other person he could just wait until one got DQ'd...In this sense people would wait the entire round back and forth making one tourney last a month.

I don't agree with it either, but it is how the program is set up. Not even Entropy can change it.

And some people have made tournaments last forever by doing that. Each one is hoping the other one will forget and get disqualified.

Unfortunately, it is not something we can change.

Well it is possible to change it(I know because I've run forums before). But you are right it's not easy..Oh well it's only a tourney xD

ive been meaning to ask does tourney mean you are not in the tournement and the tournement is running?

uh..i got a pm saying i got disqualiffyed after not playing for 7 days.. but...

Did you play all 5 of your games before the 7 days?

i believe so, it even says i played 5/5 games

It will say that once it disqualifies you even if you have not.

But, it is an automatic system that disqualifies you and not something that we can change. So, we will not be able to change it, sorry.

I switched the players around so you get to be in the "finals". Unfortunately that also made it look as though NDFP87 was supposed to proceed but... we know that you were the one with the higher score initially so it's cool HAHA.

Wow talk about mod power!

Could you have done that when Secbro won the tornament from me under the same situation?
