I signed up knowing that I couldn't make one match day (today). That's why you have 9 people on the roster and ringers.

Yet its TPG to blame. Captains cant comprehend what days matches need to be played. The bracket has been up for weeks now.

Yeah, poor attendance and scheduling are to blame for this. I was looking forward to playing some more matches, was kind of surprised we were given a double FF lol. I'm available to ring for anyone if needed!

Obviously, scheduling has been an issue for almost every captain and team; but to say that FF losses are solely the captains' fault is ridiculous. People have proposed that this draft tournament take place in 1 or 2 days to avoid scheduling problems like this and no changes have been made. It's difficult enough to get 6 to show for a match in the regular TPG season, but asking one person to herd 6 randoms into a server for a possible 8 matches in a span of 2 weeks and NOT expecting forfeits is crazy. This is not directed at anyone. I'm just merely stating that a tournament of this nature should be considered for serious revision, especially since there were FF loses by multiple teams.

Note: I realize that the dates were put up ahead of time. This means that there shouldn't be ANY scheduling prior to the match and that teams should just show up and play. Lenient scheduling is what destroyed this tournament.
