Thunder Scheduling

[Turban]

Trust me, that apology was 100% meant to be sarcastic.

[Ephemeral]

Turb,
Don’t fucking apologize. The league (i.e. you) only have to make the best effort to allow teams to come up with a time. You did this.
If anyone can’t/won’t make it then so be it, it is not that big of deal. If it was so important to the players, then they would work it out. Everyone is just acting like self-important little bitches.

I would've understood this thread if the time was 2:30 PM.

If I recall right, last week was almost the same deal. Thunder/Dudgeon had games at 3:30, 4:30 and 5:00 or 5:30, with the TWLB game unscheduled. 2:30 PM was the only option there as per the scheduling rules (which no one reads it seems!).

Actually looks like we'll be okay with 3:30pm, this is not an official statement tho

LOL pre twl drama tho

[Turban]

tl;dr: talk to Ease and Dudgeon and get them to agree to 4:00 PM.

[Turban]

I am damn sorry for allowing Thunder the chance to actually negotiate during the playoffs and not complying to your demands.

Blame the teams, not me. I am merely an unbiased middle man; if you guys want a certain time, talk to Thunder captains. I will not decide for another squad.

Royal sent zero messages to Ease about the schedule. No one came to me after Thunder had accepted the TWLJ, and you guys kept attempting to schedule at an invalid time slot. There was no comments in the scheduling on either side.

I am still willing to push the TWLB to 4:00 PM, but its far too late to get the game played at 4:30 PM.

Anyway, 3:30 PM was the only fair time slot to not have overlapped games for the squads. If this simple fact is too hard to understand, then I don't know what to think of you lot.

Last time a playoff game was catered to optimal lines not show ld finals got pushed back 6 weeks to see welt vs beam. I dont have a say in the current situation buts its pretty fucked turban really cant make a call here and not piss someone off or fuck someone over the scheduling site wise is handled correctly though.

[Dreamwin]

For god sakes. I cant show this week. Postpone the whole week! Ill tell my squad not to show.

[Ephemeral]

LOL
If it has come down to ‘optimal time’ as being a time that is convenient for everyone than maybe it is time to consider sticking a fork in this league and calling it done. Has it really come down to trying to make every single player happy? Good luck with that.

[Pressure]

I'll be there to vs these guys 1v8 if I have to lol

It's just lame that there is even the potential for a bad showing

Anyway, thund, it would be cool if you were willing to work with us to figure this out

[Spawnisen]

I'm actually serious, we are probably not gonna show up at all. It'll be the worst semifinal ever.

I truly believe that there was plenty of time to avoid this kind of situation as i specifically told you about it days ago Turban... And i also told you the consequences, which is that we will probably not be able to show up at all.


I'm so frustrated at this shit right now.. peace

[Spawnisen]

Well, it looks whatever happens in whatever league Thunder always gets their way.. So it's not going to matter. Pretty sure i know whos behind this.

Anyway, probably going to be the worst LB semifinal ever because we're just not gonna show at all, theres no point in playing a semifinal with no players. Thunder will win Semifinal due to Royal not having enough players.. suuuch a crowdpleaser.

I guess we have the amazing TWL staff to thank for this. Turban i already told you about this more than 2-3 days ago and i asked how it worked, by this time Thunder hadn't even schedules half their games and there was planety of time to take action. But you didn't. Here we are.



Sigh, I'm really disappointed.

[Turban]

to throw the ball back at you, I can guarantee that Thunder will have two to three of their starting TWLB members playing in the TWLJ match at 4:30 PM and most of their members would love to watch both games and play as well. there was unfortunately no way I could have rewarded Royal their requested (or rather, demanded) time slot after Thunder had accepted Dudgeons proposed time of 4:30 PM.

nevertheless, you are barking up the wrong tree. this is not my war to fight, but I will still gladly lend a helping hand. it is up to you guys to decide what should be done about the scheduling, and if there should be any changes with such a short notice.

I have acted as fair as I could given the circumstances. you can not always get what you want, even though I would have loved to give you guys your optimal time slot.

[Pressure]

there's always a three way swap possibility;

enemy vs dudgeon (twlb) 3:30 PM to 4:30 PM
thunder vs dudgeon (twlj) 4:30 PM to 3:30 PM
thunder vs royal (twlb) from 3:30 to 4:30 PM

but from the looks of it, its not happening, and as stated above, I'm not doing it without the permission of other captains. these aforementioned matches were accepted by the teams already.

At the moment we're getting totally shafted in the only league we're competing in. We didn't choose 3:30pm and we explicitly stated the time that we can play the entire week. Now 2 days before the game we're told we're forced to play at a different time?

I'll guarantee that we see a full thunder line at 3:30pm btw (despite them "only having an optimal line at 2-2:30")
