Edited by: Seleene on 22/07/2006 09:05:32 Just checked the Final 16 Schedule.
So, is this another rule change? Is this about what IAC did last night? If so, that is not needed. They did as they wanted with thier team. The brackets have been locked for over two weeks now. Changing them is not needed.
If this is just an attempt to be clever by putting the names in there later, cool. But rumor has it that there will be some kind of a "drawing" for the placement of the Final 16. If that's the case, do that next time. The rules were set. No need to change them now in the middle of the event. -

If they do decide to change the draw it would make sense to me, FIFA do not allow teams to throw matches in the world cup to get an easier draw in the next round, why should CCP.
It would definately throw things up in the air if they did.
/emote awaits the drama to unfold, just nipping to the shop to grab some popcorn.

I think it is more a case of them not picking which match will take place when until all the contestants have moved to the final 16. No that they intend to draw them out into random brackets. ------

Depends lunas, some teams are better suited for taking out a nossing team then others. For example teams with a huginn/rapier. So by throwing a match and thus letting a team better suited for the job clean an opponent you yourself cannot is somewhat ghey to say the least .

My issue is not so much that they might want to do this (draw for the Final 16) as much as... FFS, pick a set of rules and stick to them.
By the way the brackets were set up, the MC's road to the final (assuming I'm picking the right winners ) would look like this:
3FA The Five BoB Final
We were frakkin' stoked at that line-up. There is no shame in losing along the way to one of those teams or even in the final and if we won? OMG, what a path to overcome!
We don't want it easy. We'd rather earn it. -

...I'm flattered that you consider us a challenge ;)
That is, assuming things pan out in the last fights in our group.
I'll wait with bated breath to see how things turn out, regardless. God knows this tournament has already made me appreciate intestinal unease and nail-biting nervousness, like when one of your pilots only shows up 30 minutes before deadline.
...Come think of it, I think it's probably better we get the tournament over with. Might be developing ulcers here :p

Eh, no. Then you read it wrong. BoB 'was' on your lineup to the final. You're semifinal 'is' out of the pool where IAC just placed themself.

No, I think it was more a longing for you to do the right thing rather than paranoia.
Unfortunately it would appear that you don't give a fig for the integrity of your event.
Shame really*
*Especially when I think of those people who are watching EveTV who do not currently subscribe to Eve. Who'd want to join a game where sportsmanship and fair play in an organised event are not expected? One where matchfixing is sanctioned? Sad.
Still, easier to just wash your hands of it than to do the right thing, eh LeMonde?

What a surprise, Avon flaming LeMonde again over eveTV, clearly he's utterly incompetent for not changing the rules in mid-tournament. ERRR... Yeah... That's it...
Why don't you go back to whinging about the money for the DVD before it exists ? Maybe you can hire a lawyer and sue CCP for hurting your feelings.
I'm being totally serious when i say your forum presence has got to be a huge embarassment to your corporation and alliance, i'd suggest taking a few weeks off from EVE until you've got your head on straight.

Don't be so hard on Avon, he's just a little miffed about what happened. I'm sure he doesn't mean it! ----

I can categorically state that is not the case. However, I wouldn't have you in my corp if I had my lifetimes subscription paid for on all my acounts as recompense.
You're only having a pop at Avon because he's being critical of how he perceives LeMonde has reacted to your utterly reprehensible behaviour yesterday.

WTF. If the brackets weren't set, we wouldn't have risked our CNR against MC yesterday. Ergo, if you punks change the final 16 lineup now, you owe SA our CNR back.

Haha, well frankly I'd be pretty embarassed to be in a corp with an arrogant troll flamer like you, so I can't say that bothers me. I wouldn't even join Evolution despite numerous attempts at recruiting me, let alone an utterly crap second-rate corp like BNC. I'm not having a pop at Avon at all, have you even read his posts about the DVD ? You're defending him out of loyalty alone.
Flaming devs for sticking to the rules is quite simply moronic. Maybe that's what you like BNC to be represented as, wouldn't surprise me given your history.

Pure and simple moderation... tbh I doubt mol would ever want him in bob anyway. but from memory it was something like
Tyrrax->"After numerous attempts to hire me" Mol->"pardon ? Im responsible for ALL recruitments and I NEVER remember trying to recruit you."
