What's wrong with alliances forfeiting? Can't they field 3 pilots ffs? Are they forfeiting because "z0mg, i dun wanna lose my ship!!!"?
sad tbh
King Liu is RIGHT!!

ISS forfeited, because 2 of the 3 pilots that were nominated weren't online at the time. Why they weren't online, and whether we'd have been allowed to nominate replacements, I don't know.
I don't think anyone expected us to do all that well anyway. Now, when they organise a tournament for mining barge-industrial-freighter ...

I don't know if I want to laugh or cry after that statement, because it's soooo true.

Edited by: pershphanie on 29/12/2005 00:31:40 Maybe 9am on a wensday wasnt the best time for this contest. We had to pick our pilots before we knew the times it was going to be held. |

There is no excuse except poor planning. We had backups incase someone couldnt make it or what not. It's called being prepared, which is what you do if you care. If you don't care, that's fine too. Just please don't drop some lame-o excuse.
The above thoughts and statements are IC and should be taken as such. |

Nope.
Only the three pilots named could participate.
AFAIK, that's the reason why some alliances couldn't field a team (and some fought with less than three pilots). ------------------------------------------- Sometimes, I wake up but keep on dreaming. |

Nope, that's incorrect. Each alliance nominated 3 pilots, 1 substitute and a spectator. So anyone with one or two of their first team missing could have brought in the substitute and got back to two or three pilots in the team. We also did not have to nominate which pilots were flying which ships so if the intended BS pilot was missing then anyone of the remaining two first choices or the substitute could have flown a BS.
To be honest I think ISD would probably have let an alliance missing a pilot or two use their spectator as a pilot if it meant they could participate rather than forefeit, although that's just an opinion and I could be wrong.
There was therefore some contingency available.

As far as I know, our 3rd pilot had connection problems and we were refused the option to bring in our backup..

This is the first time such an event is held, I'm sure by next year ISD will have learned from what went wrong and they'll fix it.

Yes, quite. It was entirely our fault that two of our nominees were struck by a power failure, and a third was required by his job (he's a police officer) to stay on duty until long after the event was over. Next time, we'll make sure no blizzards strike England on the day of the tournament; I can only apologise that we didn't exercise our supernatural powers to prevent them this time around.
