I have to admit, i think we should turn time back a bit.
It seems that there was wide confusion about this whole thing. I mean, i personally had to seek out most of the information about what was going on.
Wouldn't surprise me if people simply had no idea their entries were due. :p

Please, elaborate. What do you suggest? I wouldn't ask, but I am kind of disappointed here myself (although I have found the judges).

I suggest that all of the duelists whose opponents have not finished or not posted their entry are allowed to make a choice.
If they wish, they should be allowed to give their opponents a chance to finish their entries and post them.

We all agreed that if we did not finish, our opponent won by default. But seriously...
Personally, if you'd allow it, i'd like for my opponent, Arcisal, to be allowed to finish his entry.
He's a great writer, and i should know as he's among those i do RPing with, and i was looking forward to fighting him.
With your permission i'll go ask him what happened (as since he hasn't replied to any PMs i've sent him since the deadline passed i don't know what's going on) to his entry, and hopefully get an actual contest going.

I agree with Dragonson, that if your opponent haven't finished in time, you can choose wether or not he should have another chance (We can't wait forever though)

Oh, and with that said - if any of my opponents who backed out from the contest change their mind, I'm still open for a challenge ^^

It'l be the one who would otherwise be the default winner's choice.
How is anything which someone choses themselves unfair towards the chooser?
If i chose to give my opponent a second chance, how in the world and all of the speculatory planes of existance would you mark that as unfair towards me?

Give people a choice. If they wanna' stick to the rules and enforce the contract, that's how it'l be.
If they wish to give their opponents a chance and carry through with the contest, that is how it'l be.

Or, if you don't think this is a good idea, neither of those will be how it will be. :p

But seriously... did you see any post in this thread asking for something like that?
I mean, if someone needed more time and if he had asked it here, no one of us would object in giving him more time.

But most of the persons in question failed to produce anything, even a response or a statement that they won't be able to finish and why or a reason they might need more time.
 
Check your visitor messages.....

What is/was the legendary fight's dealine? ~.~ And if it's already passed, when will the resources be judged?

Did you need a personal announcement for that? Everyone knew. Sorry, this is not an excuse. I have posted notices, I have sent pm's... If you were a bit more interested in this, you would also check the Challenge Section more frequently.

Yeah I had to make a personal announcement since you took the effort to answer. I thought we are supposed to post the WIP submissions to the original thread but seeing it's closed I was a bit lost. It's only luck that this thread was bumped when I was about to check Triggers & Scripts.
If I have no interest in this then what do you think why did I participate?.... The first few days serious things came up that I had to do and I forgot about the deadline. When I've dealt with these things, I made my spell. I don't really think why is that a big problem since as I see the rest of the participants didn't finish their submission within the deadline and the judging is not started yet.

I was too a bit lost where to upload the entry but I searched a bit and found the correct place. It wasn't that hard... Deadline is deadline. If people get a second chance, I want too because I made my entry with rush in few hours before the deadline. But at least I was in time and I created something.

So, do we go with a strict line or not?

I could go through every letter in that post and prove you wrong, as it outlines an answer with predictable arguments, but I will skip it and pretend that this very thread or myself wasn't informative enough.

As for the rest participants that you are referring to, there is a big difference between "didn't finish" and "didn't want to finish" or "couldn't". Also, before you prepare yourself to battle out your delayed sumbission, you should ask defskull if he finds it acceptable. I had to delete 3 challenges from the original list, with a lot of begging to respond for days -most didn't even respond, leaving me assumptive of their willingness to fight. If you find that fair, just as well then. And please, don't take this as a personal attack, I am just stating facts here.

The most possible problem is the event's starting date. The event started when certain things happened on Hive and it was... a bad choice, obviously. So yes, go ahead, ask your duelists if they want to still compete and report here.

Well sorry Marsal, a deadline is a deadline, you cant give excuse to it like you have to deal something in your real life, that is your personal problem so you cant mix this up.
No matter how busy you are, you cant mix between real life and on THW and you should not use the problem as your excuse, it's way too immature.
On my account, you are disquallified for not obeying the deadline, if you have problem, like I said, it's your problem, not THW's.
Deal with it Marsal, you cant turn back time and dont think this as personal, I'm just obeying the contest rule, well you should too.

After the time I spent judging, I'm just fine that those who have both final entries stay put :) But, if a duelist truly agrees to allow their opponent to continue the fight (an additional 3 days), then I am not against it. In cases like Defskull vs. Marsal, however, It's quite clear that the rule stays.

~Asomath
 
Ok, Jazztastic (dropped out) & Marsal (agreed with Dragonson's suggestion and was not accepted by his duelist) are excluded, obviously.
Names that require confirmation:
-Arcisal
-MaTiJa97
-morbent (who wanted to fight, but couldn't) morbent will be gone for 15 days. (Kola didn't respond apparently)
-sonofjay
-KhaosMachine
-Chaosy
-Vladadam

Since Jazztastic has declared you a winner himself, BeTaGod-, so you are.

Is any of the listed people still willing to participate?

@Marsal, I am sorry it turned out that way.

So I'm the bad guy now just because I simply followed the applied rules ?
Cool world.

And once again Marsal, you simply can't give excuse, think what you wanna think of me, but rules are rules, sorry about that.

And I just want a fair fight, it is fair since I followed the rules and you did not.
Also, it's quite a waste to throw bad opinions at me, you know you're wrong, you should not give anymore excuse and turn the table, making me look like a guilt person by simply following rules that should be followed in the first place.

You're ruining my reputation dude, seriously :/
