Swap

mrmagic vs ededed
i_am_james vs krazyash_07

is now

mrmagic vs krazyash_07
i_am_james vs ededed

Sorry but this sub is reversed, I did not agree to this, I stated I have messaged i_am_james, the least you can do is allow him time to respond.

Fixtures are: mrmagic vs ededed & i_am_james vs krazyash_07.

I've subbed myself in not to be dictated too, all my substitutions have been agreed with the actual players. I do things properly, sorry.

You don't need to agree with the swap. It's our choice, you and magic are online now with only a few days left before deadline. Unless you are refusing to play, I strongly suggest you play it while the opportunity is there.

The swap stands.

I'm sure krazyash is not blatantly refusing to get the game played.

This is a post letting those who haven't seen that if there's enough interest, I'll be doing straight this time around in the Knockout Cup. If you have already put your name down, but fancy playing straight instead, then just let me know and I'll move you over. If straight doesn't happen then your place in the original type you were down for will still be available to you. Still only one type per person though

No i am not blatantly refusing to play, what I am doing to maintaining my principles. I have been nothing but admirable, pleasant and helpful with all persons on this site. I do not and will not tolerate being spoken too nor dictated to by someone else who think s they have the notoriety to tell me what I can and cannot do (apart from admin).

I have subbed myself in to the fixture to play vs i_am_james in order to get that particular match played, that is what I will continue to do. With all due respect these fixtures would have been completed a hell of a lot sooner if the same co-operation and attention to getting them fulfilled occurred during the 1st week of this set.

I am well within my rights to keep to my original plan and that I will do. My players have all contacted yours, includng myself with i_am_james, which I await his reply.

Well seeing as you and mrmagic are online right now and could get a game played, yet you insist on reversing the swap, it's obvious you are refusing to get a game played.

I think he'd prefer to play the easier opponent!!

Surely that's match fixing? lol, a captain of krazyash's professionalism wouldn't do that...would he?

No preference in who I play, only preference is I have subbed in to face i_am_james, have messaged him, the least they can do is give him time to reply to myself. Now he will probably get told to not face myself, but that's just the way the cookie crumbles.

I am a stand in captain and will not be dictated too.

No preference? Yet you stated to Emma in PM that you would prefer to play james as you "hadn't played him before".

You are not James' opponent anymore, regardless of when you messaged him. UT have made the swap to get the game played, there are still 5 games before deadline in this fixture.

All I'm asking is for the original player to be given a few days to respond to myself, if he hasn't then fine make the sub. The deadlines not till 7th anyways.

I'm not available to play anyone this minute, I maybe online but that's my choice. I have had guests around today, not feeling in the mood for a match right now. But that were never asked 'if I were happy to play their player now?' WAS IT!

Woah...no they haven't! Even the online times i eventually drew out of fry he didn't make. And ed hasn't replied to my message.

A few days to reply with the deadline being a few days away?

And you stated in pm you would play after your partner had left, which you said would be soon.

I am also under the understanding fry and magic had been in contact on a regular basis. Yet you still made the swap and a sub. We had to deal with it.

Your new opponent is mrmagic.

If circumstances dictate that he can't sub in to play then he should be free to do so and not be pressurised into playing. There is a definite whiff of bullying him into playing.

Not at all shad, ash said in pm he would play after his partner had left. We are trying to get a game played and ash is now refusing.

It's got nothing to do with not being able to be subbed in. A swap has been made to get the game played.

Nope not refused at all, sub reversed, giving i_am_james time to reply to my message I took time to write. If no reply then will happily face any of the oppositions players.

If posts return stating another reversal then they are void until I have posted on this matter myself. I suggest you keep of this thread until a couple of days have past as I have expressed in numerous posts.

Thank you. (End of this matter)

This is my stance I will keep too, my players have suffered themselves due to non communication all last week so just because it suits them to make a change (tactical) then sorry I will support my principles and my team 100%
