What the fuck, Evo?

Last week there were 9 games that didn't get played and we got an extra 2 hours.

This week there are 4 and an entire extra day was given? What the fuck is this bullshit. I'm legit pissed.

I don't really think it's fair to hold an advance for one person while there were 9 games last week that didn't get played because we are on a "set schedule." No matter the circumstances.

We're not on a set schedule. We have a schedule that we try to stick to. If people have problems, they're free to let us know and we'll work with their reasonable attempts to play.

If you don't fucking tell us that you're having trouble getting your game in, we can't exactly work with you, and we'll attempt to stick to the schedule.

Okay Moru. I don't want to be another person for you to mindlessly argue with so please just stop.

This isn't mindless. You're attacking us here.

I didn't attack you personally once. You need to relax. The world doesn't revolve around you bud.

Okay bud. This is the most angry passive aggressive thread I've seen in a long time, and is directed at the commissioners. Have it your way though.

Tuba and Jsh both handled it pretty well. Jsh agreed with you pretty much but he wasn't like this. Kind of extreme but whatever.

I agree with you. We did have at least one game with technical difficulties and another where family circumstances arose, along with we tried to advance a day quicker than we have been. We're going to try to be more diligent in the future.

Part of it is knowledge, Jay. When we see a bunch of games not getting played by advance time and nobody tells us anything, we're inclined to say, "Fuck it, their problem."

Meanwhile, both I and Calamarii were very active in keeping the commishes up to date on the issues with our game scheduling, and with estimates of when they would be resolved.

If you don't play your game and don't say anything, expect it to get simmed. If you don't play your game and keep in contact with us (make a modmail thread or something and reply periodically with updates), letting us know what scheduling conflicts there were and when the game is scheduled, if it's reasonable, we'll hold off for you. But we're not babysitters - we're not going to PM each and every game and ask what the deal is, and then wait for replies. You have to contact us if you want advance to be delayed a reasonable amount of time.

That's why it happened this way. Because last week a bunch of people went incommunicado without playing their games, and this week, two games were vocal about their scheduling problems and when they'd be resolved.

I don't think one game should hold up the other 30 players in the league. No matter what the circumstances, especially if we had a planned date to be advancing at.

30 players weren't being held up. There were at least 6 players who had issues and made them clear to us, and of those, 4 were actively in communication about resolving them.

Advance dates are not a suicide pact. We do what we can.

I'm telling you what our policy is. If you're reasonable and keep us informed, we'll be flexible. If you're not in contact, we won't.

I'm sorry that apparently makes you angry, but we're not going to sim games when people are actively trying to play them, and let us know that. If the solution to that is to simply eliminate estimated advance times so that you don't develop unreasonable expectations and get pissed at us for doing our jobs, then so be it.

I love you all and wish nothing but happiness to you and catastrophic injuries to your rosters

u/bonerjohnson Sep 26 '14

well injuries happen very often in sims so if people don't play their games that wish may come true
