Top Spin Rllmuk Tour

[Arnie74]

Draw for round 2 of the final tournament is:

sladie

Simms

Arnie74

petrolgirls

Choccy

BraveStarr UK

UK MinerWilly

Dukesy

petrolgirls - I can play Friday (after 7pm) or pretty much anytime on Saturday. Let me know when you can play.

[Beertiger]

this needs to hurry up because so many people have bought the game for £13 that we want to join the next one.

[Arnie74]

This is the last tournament of the tour, with the final date of the tour being 16 January.

There's no reason why the new tournament can't be set up now though. With XSN you can compete in a maximum of 5 XSN events per game at any one time. It gets a bit confusing trying to keep track of match schedules if you compete in 5, but a new tournament could be set up and people who are still involved in this one could still register for it.

[Miner Willy]

Dukesy - PM'd you. Hope you can make it tonight?

[El Geet]

It's been a bit of a joke of late. I can't believe how many coin tosses I've lost!

Yeah, (probably unsurprisingly) everything seemed to fall apart over Christmas.

I entered a (separate) season set up by someone I had a few games with and we were all a bit crap at sorting out our games. When the deadline for the season part came around it cointossed 7 or 8 of my games in one go. Not only did I lose most of them, but my sportsmanship rating has now taken a right hammering

[MrJ]

Dukesy - PM'd you. Hope you can make it tonight?

Good luck. He didn't reply to my PM and I lost on cointoss :-(

[KimPossible]

Darn, I somehow managed to miss this thread and so my first round match was decided on a coin toss. Sorry Yorda's Saviour.

Choccy, you around for our match? Deadline is today.

Shite, I'd completely forgotten about this.

Am around tonight only, if that's any good? Anytime from about 9pm onwards.

[KimPossible]

Not sure if I'm in tonight. If I can't make it I'll forfeit the game.

Cheers for that - sorry I wasn't around earlier.

Was something up with the voice thingy? It had the little icon to say you were connected, but nothing seemed to be getting through, either way.

[NumberSix]

Righto, semi finals as follows:

sladie

petrolgirls

Choccy

UK MinerWilly

Gah, to be completed by the 13th, which is tomorrow.

MinerWilly - I can do any tonight or tomorrow after about 9.30. Any good for you?

With the benefit of hindsight, I'd say that the three day turnaround on games is a little over ambitious

I presumed you didn't have a headset on since I couldn't hear you say anything (I tried to talk to you but got no response). Weird.

Anyway, cheers for the game.

So the final is me V Sladie.

UKMinerWilly absolutely trounced me, but I fucked up the XSN sports thing, so it didn't count. Judging by our game that's the only way I was ever going to beat him... sorry again.

Anyhow, sladie - I can do tonight or tomorrow night, whichever's easiest for you. Later is better for me - 10pm or so.

Let me know which you'd rather.

Cheers.

[sladie]

10pm tonight is fine by me.

Are the finals a best of 5 affair? I've never been out of the first round before...

Just sent you a PM.

As far as I know finals are the same as the others. Best of three games, and best of three sets.

[NumberSix]

Cheers for the game sladie. I'll be on R63 soon, so hopefully see you there.

as an aside - does anyone know what I means next to a name? Where it would say F for forfeit, or W/L for win/loss, it says W next to my name, and I next to sladie's.

anyone got any ideas?

Did the connection drop just before the game finished? If you look at the details of a match "I" stands for "Inc" which I assumed meant "incomplete"????

Don't think it did, actually. We were chatting away till the end.

Incomplete makes sense though. Very odd, mind. XSN didn't even register my last game....

[sladie]

The connection didn't drop at all, so incomplete seems a little odd.

I've had some fun games on the RLLMUK Tour. My highlight is my 0% record in tennis matches compared with my 100% record in coin tosses.

I think XSN still has quite a few bugs in it with games not being registered, etc. MrJ had one game reported as W/I before it have even been played and well before the deadline - it didn't even give him a chance to play it!!!!

Just made the "incomplete" assumption as the only other times I've seen it was when the details of the match reported as someone winning a 3 set match 1 set to 0, or reporting that someone won 3-1, 1-0. Maybe it means it knew who won, but the connection to XSN dropped before it could get all the match details?
