The Finals took place today, and yet again only in part. RB let me know that they do not participate, nor want the games to be postponed so h3y (instagib), TC (capture) and w00p (iCTF) suceeded without playing.
h3y was sick and let me know via kuzen that he wont be able to play. As this is actually not enough (you need to arrange a date and time with your opponent before time the game is scheduled) Honzik could have won just by showing up, which I told h3y/jan as well as Honzik via email (at 13:37 o clock ;-). However, as already said, RB then let me know that neither Honzik nor RB will play any games, nor want them to be postponed so h3y succeeded.
w00p became Grandchamp in iCTF and CTF. The CTF game had to be replayed, as our disconnect/autosubstitution feature did not work (again). It seems to be related to the spec-delay feature. We truly hope to get this fixed before the next games, otherwise we will have to sub people in and out completely manually again. :-/
I also had a chat with one of RB who explained their reasons of not showing today to me. With regard to the ban, we stay where we were. It was unsportsmanlike and the reaction of replaying it without them was (in our view) as mild as possible but necessary. They raised the question why the Drakas/Majikal game on campo was handled differently. The main difference was that Drakas and Majikal did not agree to let someone win, but hided forever to express their dislike about the mapchoice. Honzik1 and deGrave agreed to let deGrave win and even announced it proudly right after. In the Drakas/Majikal game it made sense to replay it on complex (as they both tried to win), in the deGrave/Honzik1 one it just did not. They also told me they didn't like the side-joke about Russia. I did that joke, because I was fed up by Honzik1's repeated accusation any of us would take money. I therefore found it a bit funny to remind him (him beeing a Chech person, us beeing Germans) that we both don't come from Russia, which is -unfortunately- one of the the most corrupt states in Europe as a matter of fact. Anyway it was unnecessary, and I apologize if it did hurt someones feelings. And: if Honzik1 should apologize for accusing us of corruption, we will take his apology (too). We also want to express that RB is and will always be welcome to play again in PSL.
