Well, I think I will concede to advancing top 2 from each group and most likely do the 32-person elimination bracket after the group play. I am going to be inactive for a while starting early June though so hopefully it would be over by then but I guess we'll see..

Your question implies that you'd like to point out that, if I lost and spoboyle KO'd the round, I'd end up being group's runner-up and spoboyle's first, am I right? That again implies that I was posting the above on my own behalf, trying to push myself to the actual tournament's group stage.
Just in case you're indeed saying that I would like to point out that this is false, I just thought about it half an hour ago when somebody else has pointed that out to me.
To be frank, I even wanted to concede the game to spoboyle for playing so well yesterday in order to give him a chance to advance as well. That is: I had no clue that I wasn't yet safely proceeding to the tournament's next stage. Firstly, I thought it was two people advancing, and secondly I didn't even consider that spoboyle could 6-0 my group.
Now that I am aware, retrospectively, it's indeed kind of awkward for me to have asked for the runner-up to proceed as well because it fairly looks like I'm doing it because of me, but I swear to God that the post before was completely unbiased. I wanted spoboyle to advance in case they lose.
It is really a mystery to me why only one out of 7 people is proceeding to the next stage. Sure, 6-0 is excellent, but isn't 5-1 just as great? This is a qualifier and I've never seen a round-robin qualifier to be this harsh and eliminate all but the winner. O_o
I agree that I should have read the spreadsheet beforehand and should have raised my concerns before the group started or at least before I started my games.
Had I known all that I might have taken my games more seriously and, above all, wouldn't have put the game against spoboyle on stake so easily.
I didn't realize either. I would've requested a restart of my first game. I didn't know it was a tourney game and picked feedback on reaper. I definitely would have picked Adorables had I known it was a tourney match. I actually considered asking him to restart but I figured one game wouldn't matter so I let it go. Will be a bummer if I win all of my other games and only lose to the mobi reaper rush, which is looking inevitable.

The players that were supposed to be P1 did not or could not start a game on the right map.
Zrotgar has no free slots. He is supposed to start. I've tried a bunch of times to start a game with him.

Hi awpertunity,
My two cents is that only one person should advance. The rules were clearly stated at the beginning, and now that a few super titans have lost, they want to change the rules for a second chance. That's not quite fair.

Nothing new here, "oh, I didn't look, so I didn't know, so fix it please". Personal accountability is out of style.

Yeah I could've used your input earlier! Haha, I've already changed it now too and will be just as troublesome to change it back. I agree though I wish it was brought up earlier.
