Well this sucks... I had a statement in my head about going 'past' 4 days and I guess incorrectly thought that meant showing 5 days on the game. Many of my turns are within minutes of someone else's turn as I play quickly when I have time and a plan... but I rarely get a response faster than one turn per 24 hours. The past 4 days have been insane but I knew today through Sunday was open. I spent my slim "outwitters time" the past couple days doing some planning for Ler4t, since he's a beast, and stewing over how to attack/defend pharma once he got a mobi soon.

I wish I didn't bother with starting Ler4t's game yesterday since there hasn't been a response yet so I could've just done that today and not lost time Tongue

Still waiting on his_daddy's game.

Regardless, it'd be great in future tournaments to post an absolutely clear statement right on the front page such as "a timeout for this tournament will be granted upon the submission of a screenshot showing '4 days ago' for your opponent's turn."

"The competitors won't be obliged to start all their matches at the same time, for more comfort. In return, any battle passing the 4 days timeout will be directly considered as a forfeit."

It is as clear as possible, pharmafan understood it and when I at first set the timeout to 3 days, some players told me it was too short, because they did understand I meant "3 days".
There is nothing wrong in playing one turn per day, whereas there is something wrong when it comes to 4 days. I don't want this tournament to be as almost all other ones and die (or take 6 months because one person plays too slowly), so rules are needed and they have to be respected. As I said, you choose the amount of games you play at the same time, so you can figure put how many you will be able to handle. Thus, 4 days is extremely fair, even if you are busy irl. Wink

GG His_Daddy!

Trumpet or LER4T can still end tied with me....

His_Daddy · 10-19-2013, 08:32 AM

The rule didn't say about tie but your result against them is still in favor of you.
Cor may still win the rest two though.
Never win a game within our clan. And torbreck is still bullying me in league T-T

Cor told me in an In-game-chat in a friendly that he lost to Alvendor and can end 7-3 as the max...that's why I stated that

His_Daddy · 10-19-2013, 09:24 AM

Then it's totally in favor of you! Anyway, gl for the last game.

"Passing the 4 days timeout" is different than reaching 4 days timeout. I'm just saying it could be much clearer. See my wording above.

jesusfuentesh · 10-19-2013, 09:52 AM

On Outwitters, when a game says for example "6 hours ago", it means that the game could have "6 hours and 30 minutes", that is, more than 6 hours. So this means it has passed the "6 hours".

The same for "4 days ago". When a match says "4 days ago" it means that more than 4 days (maybe 4 days and 1 hour) have passed.

That's what I understood from the statement "passing the 4 days" that Mag!c said.
