That's all cool, but I rearranged plans for today to fit in with this new start time and now they've changed it back. I don't have all day to sit around for this tourney that may or may not ever happen. I really wanted to play in this, but terrible organization has ruined it for me. This seems like a pattern too, so I doubt I'll bother with this crap again.

 

Same here, had to run back home after I got a text saying it started two hours earlier.

It seems that the Community person in charge of setting these up doesn't really understand how to, seeing this is only like their 3rd attempt. Last time it was trouble with the program they use.

Well, I haven't gotten any notifications about a new start time.  I kept getting them a few hours out from this start time.  I guess they just expect us to sit in the garage and wait for another Special Battle to just pop up.  I'm not convinced they actually rescheduled it

Way to drop the ball again Wg and screwing people out of not just game play but of time in general!! Want the first round by capping out and now how to play the same person? What a joke!!

Looks like they reset it for 4PM est.  The original start time.

 

The original start time is for a 64 team bracket. Not a 256 team bracket. So this tournament is now going to interfere with advances tonight because of their incompetence. What a joke!! 

[thetruegriffin]

how is that cool? were  they hoping people would miss the earlier start to narrow it down? if I get credit for winning, does that mean i'm now in the 64?  then why am I up against the same person?

[thetruegriffin]

and now they are starting the 256 bracket at the 64 bracket time?  someone is not doing their job up there.

No its not, stop talking about stuff you dont know. The 64 team bracket is only the visual thing, not for when it starts or the actual size of the bracket being used. And when it says "tournament start" that means when the first battle starts.

So due to technical issues we ALL get a Patriot reward tank right?

if only.... 

[_A_R_T_]

They did in past tourneys when they screwed up everyone got 1st place reward.

 

[thetruegriffin]

i'd be ok with that.

[thetruegriffin]

or at least put me up against a different player if they are resetting it.  Those were close games. RNG was on my side.  can't guarantee that against the same person.  lol

And if you were to actually look up the bracket and start time it is for the 64 group bracket! Quit acting like you know what you are talking about without actually looking up the bracket!! But seeing how you are the almighty WOT PRO, I guess I am wrong!!

[JEDIDIEUGH]

battle popped. i guess they did reschedule... AGAIN.

[thetruegriffin]

tourney is live again.  good luckall.  kinda sucks playing the same person again.

Seeing as this has happened for the past few 3v3 tournaments where it started at the specified time as 128 bracket but it didnt show the 64 bracket until later on after the start time (same as this 250 bracket) I think you just dont know what you are talking about

Yep, seeing how they know the strat you are playing!

 

[thetruegriffin]

yup.  and just lost.

first match:

1v1: Patriot Showdown: Patriot. Group 4 - Round of 8 (battle 3)
Doggyfight vs. [AC-DC] Dirty Deeds
Victory!
Result: Victory! (1:2)

 

 

 Second Match:

1v1: Patriot Showdown: Patriot. Group 4 - Round of 8 (battle 2)
Doggyfight vs. [AC-DC] Dirty Deeds
Defeat
Result: Defeat (2:0)

 

Thanks, WG.  I guess if you only have a 3800 PR and you beat someone with over a 9000 PR, the game automatically resets since it's forbidden for casual players to ever do well
