For a very casual-heavy tournament...I don't think the pace is slow at all. I've been getting a match against the king roughly every 2 weeks or so consistently. Considering that there hasn't been less than 10 guys on the list since the beginning of this season, I'd say thats pretty good.

Glacial pace? Kings (on Xbox at least) are playing 3-4 matches per week. How many would you prefer? I mean, jeez, some of us have social lives (and win alot at Magic).

Should we have a new rule in which the King is able to play the ANY of the people in the waiting area AND any of the 1st 2 or 3 in the list?

Nah, I'm already wary of choosing between #1 and #2 on the list, just because I don't want people getting jumped just because they don't know they are up right away.

Like, how would you have liked it if you were #1 on the list and then I played the #2 guy three straight times? Because that sounds hilarious to me and now, apparently, it's possible.

I know bro I was backing you up jeezus :king: It hasn't been slow. Guys just get anxious and whiny when they've had to wait longer than a day for their match lol. Look at Gemini for ***k sakes. He quit cause he wasn't getting matches (but now that he's king he's come out of retirement; that lasted a whole 2 hours :cloud9:). I think others may follow suit, which is fine by me cause then I get more matches :D

And I agreed with you more. That "seriously" was like "Seriously, this guy is correct."

I thought this was actually the rule.
Anyway too many people to contact, if one among Hawk, Joly, Haven, Vert, Nathaniel and Darthmask wanna challenge me i'm ready after 2 hours.

Damnit Gemini quit listening to the try-hards!!! KOTH is going great. No need to concede to grown ass whiny men just because they're being loud. Pure made KOTH what it is for one purpose: casual tournament play. If you change too much stuff about it, it won't be casual and it won't be fun anymore.

I think the biggest problem is gem automatically puts people back on the list haha, I didn't even know i was on.

(Plz take me off, don't think i can commit at the minute if i ended up becoming king)

Yeah I don't think Gem should put people back on the list unless they ask.

Secondly, i think that only the person in the number 1 spot or anyone in the waiting area can challenge the king. I hate the idea as well of the number 2 spot being able to challenge the king without allowing sufficient time for the number one guy to do it. Vert's example is perfect.

I thought Pure was coming back anyway?

I hope he comes back.

So far, Barney is in 1st, Vert is in 2nd, and I'm in 3rd with Heebeez in 4th.

Sleephumper, I'm ready to set things up if your ready. Let me know.
