Hey Phoenix I can't make it on the 22th cause of duty. Can I play my games on the 23rd Sunday instead?

Allura · Tue, 18th-Jan-2011, 9:54 PM

Oop yea Phoenix I think there's been a mistake like Poo mentioned haha. DsDPsyche didnt meet the 1500 diamond requirement I believe we raised this up before u headed off to the airport that day and you told us that if this was the case he does not qualify and his games won't count? Sorry for the inconvenience :O

I acknowledge this was an error on my part for not disclosing the way 2/3 ways ties would be handled but given the time I had (+ I was doing these brackets at 2am in the morning), I made the best choice I could. If GGMuse and GGBinu would consent to have a 3 way playoff, I am fine with that. If not, my decision stands, sorry.

I am putting you 16 in the Challonge system then hitting "shuffle". Then I was just swap position 1 for aLtOxygen and position 2 for inF

with whoever is taking their spot.

Yeah, i saw that and it was really weird. It should be 2 pts for a win, 1 pt for a lost and no points for an unplayed match. When I did the brackets for Rof16, I took into account your actual points, not the ones Challonge reported. Its my first time using their brackets but if you still think you should have qualified based on your points, let me know and I'll take another look. Nothing is set in stone yet

If you were 1-3, then your points should be 5

No sorry. Qualifiers are held on 22nd. I know its rough and I am REALLY disliking this group stage system I am trying out for Jan. I am sorry but it was an experiment. For SSL Feb and esp. SSL Mar (which should be over $1000), this will be ironed out. Essentially SSL Jan was to test group stages and qualifiers over seperate dates. Obviously, it is totally failing.

Won't happen again. Qualifiers and finals will revert to a single day after SSL Jan. In the meanwhile, so sorry to those inconvenienced by this group stage system.

Sigh.. I totally forgot you know. Thanks for bringing it up. I did the brackets late and wasn't thinking. Even now, I just got off the plane and I'm already doing this. Let me check the brackets again and reply

Ok, I checked and updated the brackets for Group 3. I crossed out DsDPsyche so it immediately awarded the win to everyone else. Allura and HynopticPoo advances with 4 wins, 1 lost each for a total of 9 points. I'll make the change on the front page as well

Wow... ok, my phone just exploded with SMS once I turned it back on... I've made my decision.

There will be NO ROUND OF 16 THIS SATURDAY... All 16 players are invited to SSL Jan LAN at Colosseum and play their matches there. Single Elimination remains the format. Between SMS about the rubbish way I ran this, and the multiple tournaments happening this coming 22th Jan, I feel moving everything to the 29th actual day is better.

Let me confirm with Colosseum first, but tentatively, there will be NO Round of 16 this Saturday.

Once again, I apologize for the messiness and I am thankful for all those that have stepped forever and offered to help me or are already helping. SSL Jan itself will be a great show and so will be the SSLs for the rest of the year ^^

Ok, I'm going to crash! Night! If you have further issues, post here in the forums.

Hey guys, give HDPhoenix some breathing space. There are bound to be hiccups while running events, and this happens to be one of them. He's one of the only people contributing to hosting SC2 tournaments in Singapore on a regular basis, after all.

Yeah, i saw that and it was really weird. It should be 2 pts for a win, 1 pt for a lost and no points for an unplayed match. When I did the brackets for Rof16, I took into account your actual points, not the ones Challonge reported. Its my first time using their brackets but if you still think you should have qualified based on your points, let me know and I'll take another look. Nothing is set in stone yet

If you were 1-3, then your points should be 5

So does that mean that I should have qualified? I'm still a bit confused about this, but thank you for helping clear things up a little.

Yes, that would place you not as 4th in your group but as 3rd. However, you need to be top 2 in your group to advance. Sorry
