Had an agreed time of 8:00 AM EST on Saturday set with KillemallCFH, we had replied back and forth many times to find what time worked out, since we are on opposite sides of the world. I showed 45 minutes early, and now it is more than 30 minutes past the time we had agreed. I had PM'ed him when I got on, with no reply.
Yeah, this was my fault. I totally forgot. If we're not able to get our game in, Jank gets the win.
@KillemallCFH I hoped that helped and that you and jank get to play
Nope. Jank gets the win because he lives on the opposite side of the world, won't use IM services, and is banned from The Source, the only MTG forums I go to frequently. Oh, and he's in the navy, apparantly. And he doesn't have internet at his home.
Good luck to whoever has to jump through hoops to get a game with this guy next round.
My lap top (which had my deck on it) has been stolen as of Friday night.
I don't Can you post a round win for yourself and say that I will disqualify myself if I don't find my laptop by the next round (my mtgsalvation username/password were on my laptop).
This sucks and thank you,

This is an email I recieved from znoyes. I guess I win 2-0:(

No. This will be taken as an ID. Both of you were active and in touch.
C_C do you have a general guess or time when the next round will be up? I just wanna know because I may or may not be around the next few days and would just like to know just in case :).

The deadline is, as in the OP, Nov 16th, 7PM EDT. The next round starts as soon as I get the pairings up, which is generally ~1/2 hour after.
My experiments aren't going so well, so now I suddenly have alot more work to do around the lab. I doubt that I will be able to find time to play Magic for the next few weeks, so I'll just drop and concede 0-2 to my opponent Throst. Good luck on the tournament man.

It's your tourney, so clearly it's your call...but I disagree with this decision...An agreed time was schedualed, and one of the players failed to show. To me, that should be a loss for the player failing to show.

Cabal-chan, I have the same circumstance here. DeathScythe is pretty late for our 6PM ET match. I think he forgot. But (sorry, samoht) I don't really care what action you take. Frankly, I just want to play the lad. We had to wait so long.

That is complete BS, I had my butt out at an internet cafe later than 10:00 PM at night so that I can cater to someone that is in the states at an agreed time and he fails to show. It wasn't like we didn't plan it; it was set for days when we were going to play. He was unavailable all the other days of the week.
I told him that I am at least 15 minutes early so that I can set up, and get everything ready. I was 45 minutes early, and ended up being on til 45 minutes after he was suppose to show. That's an hour and a half of waiting, and 45 minutes to the right and left of our agreed time.
I have to play most of my matches after 10:00 PM at night to cater to everyone else, because no one else is going to cater to my time, and I understand/accept that, so if someone stands me up that screws me over. I give up my sleep to be online when it is convenient for other people. We all have lives outside of Magic; at least I hope everyone else does, so when you stand someone up that is down right rude.
Ask my last opponent (Julian), setting a time and showing up isn't that difficult. PM's on this site will do just as much as an instant message service. If I was able to send a PM via the source I would gladly do that, but the mod's over there decided a long time ago that people on the west coast shouldn't defend themselves, and I as the most out spoken person got banned because I stood up to how they ran the site back then. I guess I was right though, because they have since tried to clear that old image, but seeing as I'm still banned that old image still lingers or they would have unbanned me, maybe they're unwilling to admit that they did something wrong. No one can argue against the fact that the source was run like a club for a very long time, and still kind of is. Blame the mod's over there for me not being able to PM you.
He admitted he forgot. If he was catering to me, and had to get up in the middle of the night, I would say sure, not a problem ID, but I was the one inconvenienced. Obviously playing the match wasn't that important to him otherwise he would have been there. People need to learn to be responsible for their actions, or lack there of. If you didn't show up to a match in real life you would get the loss, not an ID.
I joined in on this tourney because it was the SALVATION Legacy Tourney, I understand that it could be run from any other location or website, but it wasn’t. Because it is the SALVATION Legacy Tourney, I had no worries as communication should be handled easily through PM’s on THIS site, not the source. I wouldn’t make such an issue out of this, but I am having the fact that I am banned on the source being held against me here on MTGSalvation. This is not right.
I follow the rules; I don’t attack people; and I actually try to help the community. However, once again I am standing up for what is right, but the people that have the power to do anything are siding with members of the source, as if I am wrong, or they are afraid of hurting other people’s/thier friend's feelings.
It's your tourney, so clearly it's your call...but I disagree with this decision...An agreed time was schedualed, and one of the players failed to show. To me, that should be a loss for the player failing to show.
Thank you Samoht,
However, I am the black sheep of legacy, outcast by that holier than holy place the source, so I must under go this punishment of unfairness towards myself (along with pain and suffering) for eternity. lol =)
To anyone else that might play me... As for jumping through hoops, you'll find that I am the one who will jump through the hoops to make it convenient for you.

In Vintage (Type 1) > Budget Deck Discussion forum:
While netdecking and testing VileHorror i thought about Biorhythm. Sure its really expensive, off-color and crappy but still you're always the one with creatures while playing VH. That made me think.
PM's on this site will do just as much as an instant message service.
My computer doesn't make a noise I receive a PM on here, nor does a little window pop up in the lower right hand corner of my screen when someone signs on. I was at my computer all morning, and if you just went on AIM, we could've easily gotten our match done.
Obviously playing the match wasn't that important to him otherwise he would have been there.
Believe it or not, the human brain isn't flawless, and is capable of forgetting things. I have a a bad memory for **** like this; that's not my fault.
If you didn't show up to a match in real life you would get the loss, not an ID.
That is an absurd comparison, and you know it.
But just to make things clear, I agree I should probably be getting the loss, because it ultimately was my fault.

This is all that I needed to know. That being the cased, Killemall missed the deadline, so it's your win.
You don't need to turn the thread into a rant-fest. Hence why I ask, when people post about their opponents, that they specifically include what went on. Such as them not replying, or missing times, etc.
Edit: I want to put something here about people needing to have some easy method of communication, but can't find the adequate words. Really, for serious now.
Tell you what. If you can't install or run an IM system, do this for me. See if you can get access www.meebo.com . In a nutshell, you can run a pre-made IM from your web browser. If you can get to that site without being blocked, I will make you an IM account. Just tell me what you want the account name to be, and what e-mail account to tie it to. Make a secondary e-mail account for it. If you don't want to do that, I suppose I could make it for you, make your IM account, and hands the keys over to you so you can change it.
Anything so I don't have to deal with these issues of games being missed because one person doesn't have a commonly used form of internet communication.

While I'll continue to try to improve the means in which I contact people and people can contact me, even if I had a messenger service of some sort, you do not have any messenger services or contact names in your profile.
I do hope that my connectivity issues will be taken care of after the Thanksgiving holiday. I hopefully will have some days off, and to the shock of some Thanksgiving is not celebrated by the Japanese, so I should be able to talk to my internet provider as they will be working.
KillemallCFH,
I would have liked to have played, maybe after my connectivity issues are cleared up, we can play it out to see how it went, or just play for the heck of it.
C_C,
Blocked from work, I'll have to try that when I get off the boat.

5th is just a guy snapping his fingers. Maybe Nicol Bolas can get mana that way, but I can't.
Understand, Dredge is not really a Magic: The Gathering deck. When a card is playable in it, it doesn't mean it's a tournament playable card. It means it's playable in whatever crazy fantasy world that Dredge operates in.
(unless I missed something) he didn't show up.
@KillemallCFH I hoped that helped and that you and jank get to play
