the__saint has been actively trying to get apples_back to message her since the tie began. She heard nothing and then ritcho is subbed in. Now she still cant play? Whats the point in a sub that doesnt help get the game done? the__saints times for playing have been the same all season. She doesnt deserved to be subbed out in this situation.

Exactly what I said , like I said I'm last resort

Jamie i contacted this person on monday of this week as yet no reply however he did get the msg and posted on his own forum will be defo on sat mornin from 9am to 5 ish the same sunday I would like to play this tie but no pressure Jamie as captain whatever u feel is right c u all at the weekend

freak vs magic GSC

I went thinking I had a chance. But when I missed an easy pot on the 1st frame , I was thinking different, he then won the first frame through my silly mistake. I then took advantage of the second frame where I potted okayish. But just enough to get it back to 1-1. He then went on a rampage and 7 balled me and finished me off in the next two frames to go 3-1 up. I turned up my game a little to make it 3-3 but then it happened. The thing that usually happens when funkypool see's me playing good again. It started messing me up. The 7th frame was mine until. I made a neat cut into far pocket and somehow magic's ball went in. Which finished me off to make it 4-3. The 8th frame saw me dominat again until magic's ball decided to drop in the pocket and made it 5-3. The final frame which saw me on the last 3 balls. I saw an opening and for some reason the ball didn't slot past when the pocket was blatantly open and should have slotted straight in which destroyed me.

Credit to mrmagic for his clinical nature of finishing my mishaps

I lost 6-3 and if we lose from here. I declare it to be my fault

No worry. Seems like you have it all sorted. No need for us to get involved it seems to me.

Arghhh was gonna play PC semi and perhaps veyron now but i left my charger at work and the laptop is dead
Next chances are at about 10 tonight on my gf's laptop or tomorrow at about 10/10.30

two silly things in two sets, you feeling ok seb?

lol what was the other again?

snooker default

She messaged him Monday, he posted Wednesday and I found out if Ritcho could make her times and subbed him in when he said yes and I give the days when he could make the__saint times. Then afterwards, she's posted to say she can't make the days ritcho said he could get on at her time.

I have two active players and I've given you both as options. What more can I do? Saint hadn't ever said she's had a problem and has said she only messaged him on Monday (and having ruled out Thursday and Friday, there wasn't a great deal of time to arrange).

I said you might want to sub fr34k in as he offered it because he'll be more active than Saint and at a more peak time and if he's unavailable at the weekend then it's down to our player coming on at a time he's said he might not be able to despite gong a definite day at your players time (or you have to sub your player out Sunday evening hours before the deadline) to avoid a default. That's a rush and if it's going to go to that is it not better to get it played before the weekend if we know out players won't meet definitely after.

There's 100s of players in clans, what good is telling me one particular players times haven't changed all season?

The sub was fine until your players times changed after, we need some more flexibility from you guys

I understand the concept of flexibility. What i also understand is regardless of what i would do under normal circumstances, this is the semi final of a competition we have been in all season and we would all like our best players to play. Its a 2 week fixture and i know that Jolene was messaging last week to arrange a time with no joy. Now its the second week, apples back cant get on and a sub who cant meet Jolene's times either is subbed in. Im not saying it should be done last minute but she will be on for 8hrs on sat and sun. Not hugely restrictive now is it?

If she's had problems then why didn't you guys swap the games when you could or inform us there was a timezone issue. The first we hear about is our own player saying he can't make her times because they are off peak, so we make a sub within a day who can meet her times and then she moves the goalposts. Apples_back can get on, just not before 5.

We have two active players to cover a range of times, as do you, but you keep In a player who's times don't suit any of our players because they're not the usual times people play. We have ritcho who might be able to play at et one on the weekend but he have a definite time which should've seen the game played. 16 hours out of the last 104 at off peak times is quite restrictive.

You gave us a time, we gave you a sub to meet that time and you've changed it. What more can we do on our side? you have the power to actually do something. If we could sub someone else in we would have.

But its not is it. She was available last weekend as well but as she had heard nothing from her opponent couldnt get it done. She is also available on mon and tues but again had heard nothing. Your first attempt to sort something was 10 hrs ago when you subbed ritcho in. Now because we havent jumped to your suggestion of using our sub we are being obstructive. I my self didnt know there was an issue till this morning. We will wait till Sat evening. If ritcho or apples_back cant play we will do a sub.

all the best in the last 2 fixtures, FPD!

Cheers buddy. And to you guys. I was going to try and play welshonly18 tonight but i got to go out on a measure up. I will be in by 8pm yours tomorrow for the evening if hes about.

Yes and we had our player available last week too, the issue has been the players meeting each other not inactivity. If the saint has not told you or us there was an issue until after our player has said a sub is needed, she can only have messaged him and not done anything else to try and get a reply or solution.

Our first attempt began over 24 hours ago, a day before your player had even informed you or us of the problem. We have 3 players available, 1 won't be on before the other two are active. You have about 10 options to use as a sub, obviously you want to give your player the best chance but if you've left it too late then it was your side that could've done more.

It's all good that she was available at random days last week, but we gave two days that suited the times for her and then afterwards it's been changed. Can't say that our sub doesn't suit you when you move the goalposts.

Hopefully this weekend the players will meet and this is sorted without anymore problems.

all good, he said to me also tht he is prob gon play u tonight. no worries, tomorrow is another day :)

Seems fitting for one of my favourite FF songs

PC Semi
whocares8x8 (13) vs (8) miss_harriet
8US: 4-4
9-Ball: 7-1
8UK: 2-3

I had a brilliant run in 9-Ball, which ended up making the difference
Very high quality game!
