All the teams that are in red are the ones that were previously put on probation on 11/2

These teams are:

3    Beastmode, General G, SitffyG

8    IZ, Darz, Darkliath

10    Eltimes, Seawolf, Dream Catcher

12    Nacelle, Vulture, Loco

14    Commando, Rezzan, Tschert

18    Max, Seb, Stilr
19    Mort, Nate, Zebra
20    Bartleby, Aberrator, Nnils
21    Mandingo, Ruiprsg, Kobzos

Of these teams these are the ones that we have either heard from or got at least a game in

18    Max, Seb, Stilr (5 games total 3 games since placed on probation)

8    IZ, Darz, Darkliath (7 games total - 4 games total since placed on probation)

Therefore these teams should definitely be considered for DQ (without question)

3    Beastmode, General G, SitffyG

10    Eltimes, Seawolf, Dream Catcher

12    Nacelle, Vulture, Loco

14    Commando, Rezzan, Tschert

19    Mort, Nate, Zebra
20    Bartleby, Aberrator, Nnils
21    Mandingo, Ruiprsg, Kobzos

I say we keep Max and Dark's team on.  No DQ as they are clearly trying to get their games in. Let's keep them on probation.

Here are my votes on the following teams

3    Beastmode, General G, SitffyG - Disqualify - 0 games played as of start of week 4

10    Eltimes, Seawolf, Dream Catcher - I'm on the fence.  Dream Catcher posted awhile back in the rules/registration thread asking us not to dq, but I haven't seen any actual effort to get games in.  I say we either disqualify or drop his team at the end of this week. 

12    Nacelle, Vulture, Loco - I'm not sure about this team.  They did get 3 games in so far if I'm reading the chart right, but I'm not sure how recently that was, if they are making any real effort to get their games in, etc.  Candidate for DQ.

14    Commando, Rezzan, Tschert - Same as nacelle's team - 3 games in.  No idea how recent.  Candidate for DQ

19    Mort, Nate, Zebra - same as naceele
20    Bartleby, Aberrator, Nnils - 7 games total - not sure when last game played.  IF they are stil trying to play, I say we keep them on.
21    Mandingo, Ruiprsg, Kobzos - 3 games total.  I know rui is shipping out before too long - I think he said just before Christmas, so still some time... but only 3 games - not sure if they are trying to get games in or what.

Anyway, there is my 2 cents.  The only team that seems like a cut and dry let's dq them is beastmode's team.  The other's we'll have to discuss.  What sayeth the panel.

okay just figured out jon's spreadsheet.

Looks like Bartleby was on probation last week, for having 5 out of 6 games. I would give them 48 hours before DQ. 

It also looks like we forgot to DQ Brasher, Brokenstrong and Beckad. They still have 0 games it looks like. 

Teams that should have been put on probation this week would be (this week's threshold is 9? or 12?)

Kalel - 7

Baddaddy - 8

Thunder - 8

Honestly, with the drop rate of the tourney, I suggest for the next tourney we just have it be one day or one weekend long and have the time that the games be on very very rigorously determined and adhered to. This round robin thing isn't working out very well. 

Disqualifications the panel agrees on

• Beastmode's team (0 games at start of week 4) - dq by vote of 2/3
• Nacelle's team (3 games in week 1 only) - dq by vote of 2/3
• Brasher, Brokenstrong and Beckad (0 games at start of week 4) - dq by vote of 2/3
• Commando, Rezzan, Tschert (3 games in week 1 only) - dq by vote of 2/3
• Eltimes, Seawolf, Dream Catcher (0 games in 4 weeks) - dq by vote of 2/3

Teams going on probation instead of dq

• Darkliath's team (2/3)
• Max, Seb, Stilr (2/3)
• Baddaddy/Trouser/Chiefy
• Jona/Rawrr/Kalel

Special consideration

• Rui's team - they have approx 48 hours to get more tourney matches in.  Not sure if they are still wanting to participate.  No matches in 48 hours results in DQ (2/3) - Will be DQ'd 11:59 PM EST on 11/11/2010

I want someone else to vote on the dreamcatcher deal - hedgie says dq.  I'm on the fence but leaning dq.  Mcshane?

Need your vote on the other teams as well McShane.  On the fence on those as well, but mostly due to not knowing when they played last... I lean more favorably towards folks that have played those 3 games very recently (indicating they are trying to get their games in).  If all of the games are from week1, I say dq.

Saw Jon's comment above - updated the list of things we agree on.

I think Bartleby and Nnils won't be able to get their games in if they don't get on vent.  Good potential there but hard to get a hold of all 3 of them at once.

Keep them I guess.  All of the teams behind mine need SOMEONE to play, so we can figure out who 2nd, 3rd, and 4th are then get on with this thing.  I think when you play Zen's team you should do a best of 7, like a Stanley Cup or NBA Finals then we just wait to see whoever falls into 4th place between Rawrr's team and Darkliath's. 

any objections to the folks on jon's previous team becoming free agents with their teams dissolution?  I'm fine with it. 

updated my dq post here and adding to the rules/registration thread now.

This seems like it might be the direction to go... hmm...

what happens if we sweep the zen_god? Are you still the winner of the round robin? We would both have 2 losses.

On that note we need to play zen... sigh...

Not necessarily, but probably.  If we have any ties, then we will have a tie breaker match.  I think we talked about that some back when we were coming up with the rules.  Not really anything we need to worry about atm, though, imo. 

Actually you guys don't even have 2 losses you have 3, so Zen should be the one asking what happens if he sweeps you, which him and I already talked about.  I don't remember an old discussion about this, but pretty sure if there's a tie, the fact that we won the head to head matchups is the logical thing to go by.

Personally I'd be offended for someone to try to argue that we're not the top team in the first part of the tournament.  But I guess if a miracle happens and zen's team sweeps pacov's, we'll talk more about it.
