Bonsai didn't joined any of the battle island games. I understand that there is the "2 games at a time rule" and there is no need to play all at the same time but none? Is he on vacation or something?

Edit: Ok, he did it now.

"First of all i like to say i feel sorry for all the clans who had to replace players for whatever reason cause its def. not funny not having a line-up which is not "working""

Triple-negative, Don haha

So it's definitely funny having a line-up, which is not 'working'?

The remake game in battle islands, 101 vs sninja, ended in a boot for Sninja on the picking stage. It's this valid? The game has to be remade again or something?

hey all!

Is it possible for GG to replace MG? We can't reach him for months now and his competition is a festival of boots.

Same about Orinocoflows, we can't communicate at all with him.


We are considering these players as retired.

Edited 8/25/2016 14:50:25

Psykkoman from CORP retired. Not sure if Ox already informed anyone.

- Ollie will replace Orinocoflows in this tourney:

So the games affected by this change, with Ollie playing for us, would be:

- (GG) Team G vs Team I (Turtles) https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=11826668
- (GG) Team G vs Team A (Master) https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=11826670
- (GG) Team G vs Team D (WG) https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=11826671


- About MG, we have his login. So FB will replace him in the following tourneys:

No need for replacement games, if I get everything well and if I don't; Please correct me.

Summer is missing again. She will be replaced by nich in Strat ME 2v2 and Mirror in EU 3v3

Psykkoman from CORP retired. Not sure if Ox already informed anyone.

Yes, I've informed Beren about it and he told me to officially post it here, so yes :p

I'm sure the news has got to there and the official statement means that 3 games are hopefully being remade ^^

Psykkoman has retired but I'm definitely not sure I want to replay those games -_-
Our performance this season just killed my motivation for CL8...
Now I'll just finish my last game with Shots and say goodbye to CL8

reading though this is like a running joke gone wrong!

Teams pick players. If they pick unreliable players then it should be their tough luck.... replacing players just prolongs the madness.

If you're going to run a competition make it simple.
What you're doing here is in effect penalizing teams that have good reliable players in their clans.

It's a CLAN league, part of being in a clan is that you all stick together. If people drop out then it's the clans fault or simply bad luck.
Get over it and move on

(i can't tell you how much i'd rather that 0 clans got replacement games, but when i found out other clans did then... x_x)

To be honest, I completely agree. This is an absolute pain. However, these rules were in place before I took over. It's a bit difficult to change rules midway through a season. We generally try to avoid that, unless it is a grey area.

The biggest lesson I've learnt from this episode is to look at all the rules more closely at the start of the season. It would be great if others could chime in at the beginning and raise these concerns.

All that being said, we have a decent solution for retirements next season.

@OxTheAutist, ChrisCMU

Please post all the games which need to be replayed as well. You also are responsible for creating these replacement games and posting the game links on this thread.

I’ve been thinking about this a great deal, and I agree. My father unexpectedly died a few days before CL8 started. In my grief, I completely forgot about WL and--as a result--got booted from four of my 1v1 Guiroma games. When I finally returned, I assumed, “ah, too bad, life happens.” But… when the requests for replacement games started coming in, I asked the ruling committee if I could get my booted games re-done. The answer was “No.”

So, in effect, you have players who committed to play in CL8, then decided to *quit* (something over which they HAD control) and their clans received replacement games. At the same time, others (like myself) who committed to play, but had a personal crisis (something over which they had ZERO control) are told, “No replacement games for you.”

Very unfair, in my humble opinion.

The CORP v VS Great Lakes game was the accepted GL game, as it had not started when Koala was officially declared retired:

https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=11835724 (will be remade when my brain cells function)

There are also 3 China games to be remade, although if Ven truly doesn't care at all they might just all be dropped :p 2 have not started, but 1 has, and here is the link.

@farragut:

My sincere condolences for your father... *hugs*

I noticed you were booted during the picking phase from all of your games. How come your request to have replacement games was denied?
