My match is about to start!

_My opponent won the match-up but did not record his match. He asked before the match-up start if I could stream which I found odd. So, there is no recording of his side of the match. I recorded but I choose not to upload because its split into 3-4 videos due to me being logged out frequently. Kryder, you handle this.

Yankspanker, what is happening to me is exactly what Gem just described above. My videos are being cut up into 3-5 different videos which is annoying. i don't know why that is happening. It must be because I'm switching to other apps in the Xbox (but my Magic Duels is still going the whole time, it's not like it closes).

what a pain. I think i'll just leave the chat window open from now on and talk to people in the chat between matches instead of bouncing in and out of the app. Cuz i want people to be able to watch the Twitch videos after easily enough and having it all chopped up like this is annoying.

Sorry, i only have the Xbox DVR recording at the moment, but i messed up and the dvr only recorded the final '30s of the match =(
Im uploading one cellphone video recorded by my gf in the last moments of the game. I'll send u soon.
(sorry for my terrible engish)

btw, thanks to Kryder for the rules change. I think this will make it much more fun. Especially for streamers like me that like to laugh it up and interact.

witty,

I will be on for awhile tonight. After that I will only be on for a few hours each night. Let's come up with a better time and date than Sunday. I don't like waiting until the last minute.

The rules are pretty specific about this situation...I'll just follow those.

XBoners,

Just a quick update for you...I needed to adjust the rules for the tournament to remove some ambiguity I found when dealing with a match over on the STEAM Showdown.

Here are the rules in question, with the updates underlined for emphasis:

Here are updated rules 6 and 7, with specific changes underlined for emphasis:

6. Disconnects - If there is a disconnect, we will assume that it was unintentional and replay the match UNLESS it is clearly obvious that one of the players had an insurmountable advantage and would have likely won. This needs to be agreed upon by BOTH players, and I need to know this via PM that you both were in agreement. If both players do not agree, replay the match anyway and then PM me with your video link (to include timestamps where this DC occurred) and I will make the call. If it is not clear there will be a winner within several turns by my estimation, the game will be voided and the results of the following games will count. If I decide there would have been a clear winner within several turns, I will award that player the win for that game and the results will stack in order from that game, if necessary.

Remember this is a friendly tournament and aims to promote a fun and competitive tournament environment and to showcase our players within the community ...don't be a dick, that’s my job. But also, don’t be afraid to call an issue to my attention; just be respectful.

7. Bugged Cards - A lot of these have been corrected, but some were not. Instead of going over individual cards, here's the basic rule: You, the player, will have (hopefully) been practicing with your deck for some time and know any buggy interactions that occur with the cards you have selected for your deck.

Regardless of what you can do, don't do anything that is contrary to the rules of the cards/game as written. If the game forces you to do something that is contrary to the rules, make it right (ie, if you get away with casting/doing something for free and there should have been a cost, add the appropriate mana to your mana pool and let it drain at the end of the current phase).

If there are any questions or something happens mid-game, finish the game and send me video of the event...I’ll make the rules call. If a card causes a disconnection, before the next match starts all players will have the option to replace the card(s) in question if it is in their original decklist for the rest of the tournament. If players do not change the card out, any further bugged interaction caused by that card will cause them to receive a game loss.

These rule changes go into effect immediately and cover the entirety of the tournament.

Sorry about changing things up in the middle of the tournament, but they should be transparent for the majority of players and she clear up some confusion for specific situations.

For those of you who wanted to watch infamous get spanked but couldn't, HERE IT IS.....

P.S. Your welcome Gemini helping a friend out...

Gemini has removed the videos from Twitch! Now this is intriguing, what was in there?
Also, yet another interesting consequence of that new recording rule. Hope Kryder is enjoying it.

so does this mean gem doesn't get the extra point ?

Kryder, what is your ruling on this????

Nothing. holysacrebleu is just walking over my preference to not post my video because I can freely do so. My opponent on the other hand consciously choose not to record and insisted I did before the match-up started. He is the one who HAS to post his video by the ruling and has not done so.

Well, Gemini obviously gets the loss. It's just whether or not Kryder determines that they both lose, which I would find humorous.

My last 2min match against Gemini + my fail try in recording by Xbox DVR + Winning dance (haha, sorry, brazilians manners): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7489fu16tV8

My trying record videos are in http://xboxclips.com/hnqe

Edit: I can rematch if necessary and solve my record problems

You can have the win, I don't care.

I didn't want to offend you.... but I thought people had a right to know, Who was the winner and Who was getting spanked.. you didn't need to delete your losses like that. You take a loss like a man, and show it proudly..

I know, but rules are rules. Unfortunately i only have the Xbox DVR record at the moment, because of that i warned you for record.
I dont know if i can have another great results againts you in a rematch, but what was decided, i do.

Waiting for the decision.
And for round2+ i'll stream according the rules

lmfao !!!!! be a man gem

Sounds like you are trying to pull something.

Kryder, I'm curious, how often do you facepalm during these tournaments?
