there's like 20 teams left in dod.. if you want to play dod that bad, show up at 9est on sunday. that simple.

we've played a grand total of i think 2 matches, at a time besides 9pm EST in the last 2 seasons. mostly due to other teams requesting it, i requested a 7pm last week and this week because one of our guys couldnt do 9. we were however completely able to play at 9, with no issues
All of our matches this season have been at 9est except for two. The other two were at 10est (On Sunday).. I think what taylor's saying is that he understands things can come up and maybe you need to reschedule... But you shouldn't have to rely on playing at an extreme time or on a Monday or Tuesday..

The one match at 7 was spec's request, and the possible other would of been theirs too. I randonly request 7 so alex can play(only started that last week because we couldnt find a 6th until match time when kicken showed up randomly) but we are 100% ready and expecting 9pm.

my post wasn't directed at any individual or specific team.. there's been multiple occasions where a team i've been on has had to benefit an opponent that lacked the capability to schedule a match in an appropriate manner or at an appropriate time.. and there is a tpg rule that you cannot take a forfeit win/loss in playoffs.. so basically their scheduling tactics are enabled furthermore through playoffs

Totally agree with that, at 8:50 pm dvc and us had 5 a piece. We were told whether we play 5v5, 4v5, 6v5 it didnt matter, that match HAD to be played. Luckily we ended up with a sixth and we let them use the htk ringer because id rather lose to 6 with a ringer then win 6v5. This week we play bio, and we'll probably lose, so then we can at least have a few weeks before we have to bitch and moan about this again. I think cass should have summer school for the sa's regarding scheduling, or else prepare for round 3 of bubbles/151's whining hahaha.
