@55th just to clarify your guys were not 1 minute late, you guys were 19 minutes late as the match was scheduled to start at 7pm, you didn't have 15 people on the server until 7:19 as per the logs.
If you had semi competent leadership you would've had people on the server at the very latest at 7pm, as both myself and chriseh reminded vegi multiple times. I personally wouldn't have minded to balance down if you were struggling for numbers to a 12v12 for example as long as we started on time or at least within the
grace period. Unfortunately for you, you only had 2 players on at 7:10pm - I'm not gonna play a 2v2 (already doing one w Chucky next Sunday
).
Unlike single day gf team tournaments, there is provision within the rules for round deficit where either team can have a round advantage starting a match, this is something that I thought would be fair and would take but alas there was no provision for it. Ultimately, yes a punishment very much is in order, tough shit that this remedy is the only one available according to the ruleset for this rule break, the rules which I am sure your leaders all read before signing up
I do feel sorry for the average 55th enlisted player because it really is not your fault and I understand why a lot of you do blame me, but you ought to redirect your grief to your incompetent leadership. Maybe if some of your grens and leadership weren't busy farming for a positive K/D in L2 your regiment would've been aware and certainly would have had enough on and involved ready to start at the agreed time.
Beat you before and we would beat you again but time to learn a lesson - tough shit.
If you didnt read them the first time round
EDIT: Last pracc GF we waited till 7:10 when you only had 6 people online before cancelling. Yesterday you only had 2 online at 7:10, do you really expect my players to wait this long every time and not get annoyed ?
