Hey @Fig when do you wanna battle? I should be available to battle anytime between 7 am - 8 am CET, 12 pm - 1 pm CET and 5 pm - 11 pm CET today and tomorrow.

That’s what I’m saying, leaving it up to a coin flip when fig made zero effort to try and communicate a time is stupid

usually the person who made effort to schedule does just get a bye in more official online tournaments

what I'm hearing is

if I think I'm going to lose to Terminus

I should just noshow and get a cool 50% chance of beating him anyways?

I mean, 50% is better than 0%

giving people the idea this is fine is basically why the coinflip thing was dumb as hell

 

[ExLight]

not to mention it was pretty unfair maybe, I feel like both parties hardly put any effort into scheduling

 

[ExLight]

also extremely arbitrary when the host is one of the players

Hey, I actually told fig when I’d be on, not only did he not respond, but he got snarky for some reason because I wasn’t on at the exact same time as him.

I at least made the attempt.
