This part of the rule feels like it has been bent?
This isnt the part of the rule that was questioned, basically the opposing team ons wanted to reschedule while Nerve wanted either a substitution to take place or have the game walkovered. I feel that a reschedule has to be agreed upon by both teams as there is no real rule and limitations to it. Essentially the team rescheduling has the advantage as they are not having to use a substitute for the game.
It's quite bad mannered to suggest both teams are "pretending" to be tier 1. I'm quite confident our team can compete at a tier 1 level. I think we showed that in SEACC (well havoc did ^^).
In terms of admins, you guys cant claim you dont have any faults or always make correct decisions. Your human, we all know that. But in this case you are clearly siding with clan ons. Not only are they getting a substitute for this game incase their player cant make it but they are getting a reschedule for a game that they needed to use a substitute on. I dont feel this is fair on future teams playing clan ons, as substitutes are really key in this competition, something that Nerve has keenly felt.
We're not siding anyone.
If you can show me that no onslaught players were not connected 15 minutes after the start of the game we'll give the walkover.
What i mean for the tier 1 thing, i wanted to mean that your teams can both be in tier 1 next season and that i don't want to see such a mess hapening because you guys can't agree on something (whoever the fault belongs to) and blaming the admins for their decisions.
