Completed Dawn of War tournament - itz DONE!

[Darth Roxor]

The league commissioner approaches the TV screen, having received information from the assistant referees that rules may have been broken.

Let's investigate the source material.

Hmm, player "deso" is constructing what looks to be a boyz hut, but it could just be shoddy space marine buildings. Give me a close up on the field.

Yep, those are orks sure as hell.

Round 2 between desocupado and Ninjerk is declared null and void and shall have to be repeated with the correct racial picks.

Ninjerk

 

[Snorkack]

While we're already at the rules lawyering -

5. To prevent spergs being unable to start games due to endless "counterpicking" in lobby, you'll be limited to only 2 races for the entire tournament. 1st race you'll play in your 1st game, 2nd in 2nd game - 3rd game as you see fit (still within the same 2 races). Should this lead to mirror matches, the race orders for one of the players can be changed (because mirror matches are uncool).

I expected to see Ninjerk fielding the IG against Deso's Orks, not the Marines. Or are you free to choose between your races for the first game?
nevermind.

Trust me, I've raised this question to the commish yesterday.
But he said no one objected to the plan at the start, so why should changes be done now?

Enjoy the Warp Cup, Братан

 

[desocupado]

Oops...

I think I thought I could pick any of the two

It's alright. We can rematch later.

 

[hello friend]

Probably be no problem, but I've had significant connection stability issues last 16 or so hours. Might be fixed now. If I disconnect during my face-off with Snorkack, or don't show up at all, count it as a forfeit.

Thanks mate. But I'd rather lose in a fair match than to receive points through a no-show. If your network issues haven't been resolved by tomorrow, let's just postpone it.

What happened to the rest of the virgins? Our division still hasn't seen first blood :[

 

[RNGsus]

I've had one against deso. I can do matches Thursday-Sunday this week. I've only got my phone right now. I don't think you'll see me square off against the Chad though lol.

 

[RK47]

Ganbatte minna.

 

[Dayyālu]

I must have played like 15 sparring matches and I'm having fun.

I haven't played a single tourney match, tho. I'm wondering if I can get people to play 2vs2, the quality increase from random pubbies is staggering.

 

[Darth Roxor]

2v2 > 1v1, it's well known.

Next tournament edition: 2v2 tag team championship.

 

[RK47]

lol i will sponsor your team thru patreon if u use (RK47) clan tag

 

[Snorkack]

I like how so far there has been played one single match in this tournament, yet people are already fantasizing about the next one *.

hello friend , does our date for tonight stand or does your isp still give you troubles?

*: Count me in for S2 ofc.

you'd love codex blood bowl leagues

 

[hello friend]

Snorkack Like I said, problem seems to be fixed, but you never know. Played two games yesterday where there was a disc. I don't know if it was on my end or the other end. I'll be in-game and ready at 2100hrs GMT+1, we'll just have to keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best.

 

[Darth Roxor]

Played two games yesterday where there was a disc.

Was it a disconnect in the middle of the match or at start?

Because DC at start seems to be an unsolved/unsolvable netcode bug, we've been getting it often in 2v2.

 

[hello friend]

Both. I'm pretty sure the midmatch disc was on the other end, tho.

[Darth Roxor]

Snorkack v hello friend - Game 2

Spoiler

I was like this near the end.

What can I say?
hello friend sisters proved that hard work can be undone by slight inexperience. And Snorkack didn't give up when 3 Battle Sisters Squads arrived at his base with his army decimated.
That loss was hard to take. But you should be proud of taking the match up to that point when barely a week ago you'd be nothing but dust on the ground.
One of the most competitive match so far. Bring on match 3!
