Was very dissappointed in arriving on time, at 1.00pm and not being allowed to play in the 1v1 wc3. I have attended every respawn to date to play in this event and it has always started earliest 2.00, usually more like 2.30. About 4 other players also had this same problem as we all arrived roughly the same time.

Im not to upset about what happened, i would just like to know that for next time if there are time changes to competitions, please announce it on the website like at Game1 which had a full schedule of when competitions are running. Paying $25 to play in a competition and not even being allowed to play in it is abit unfair.
In the end respawn has always been great to play in, i thought i would just mention this to improve the quality of the next one smile.gif

Thankyou

Last time the competition was set to start at 12:00PM just like it was this weekend and this was mailed out before V3, however last time we had power problems on a couple of tables which had people with laptops that play with you Evilgummiebear and I needed to sort out their power and network problems so they could play as well. Because of that we ended up not starting till 1:30 to 2pm. This event we didnt have any delay's so we were able to start the competition at the scheduled time which was 12pm.

I'm sorry about the incovinience this caused as, as far as I'm concerned the more playing the better. At the next even we'll mail out the timetable again but it will most likely follow the same plan as V4 did.
