FTR OFC tournament! 1st Prize: Play OFC w/ Barry Greenstein

[MadMojoMonkey]

Sabr1988.. you will be disqualified from the event if you do not contact either myself or Mike1013 to schedule your match before tomorrow.

[MadMojoMonkey]

Sabr1988 was eliminated as a no-show. Mike1013 advances automatically.

The updated bracket is posted in the OP.
(The purple numbers represent the winner's score at the end of the match. They have no bearing on the tournament bracket, I added them as a curiosity.)

Round 2 passwords have been sent. (harring_sean will receive his soon... problem with PMs again.)

The quarterfinal round will last until Saturday, November 2.

[Puppymint]

As I have not received an answer to the PM's which this mod requested I take the current conversation to, it's a forfeit and gg.

I'm sorry. Your PMs have inspired a flurry of email activity up to the highest levels of FTR. This forum is run by people who are all over the world and email chains can take some time to develop.

Please be patient with us while we figure out the best solution to this grievance. We have heard you and we are diligently working to resolve this issue in a way that is best for all of FTR and sets a good precedent for the future of FTR.

I take personal responsibility for not responding to YOU via PM when I received your message. I immediately passed it along, but I didn't reply. This is because the issue is bigger than me, and I don't want to come across as the ersatz negotiator. I don't speak for the owners of FTR, and I didn't want to mislead you with my personal thoughts, when it's their thoughts that will resolve this.

Again... please be patient while we scramble to make sure that everyone who should be involved has a chance to be heard.

We appreciate your membership and we're working to keep it. Please give us the chance to do so.

Urggghhhhh....

I threw away a 50 pt lead with stupid reckless behavior.

Well played seabiscuit.

[eberetta1]

mike1013 defeated eberetta1 convincingly...

[Mike1013]

I prevail over eberetta by 33 points. I think luck was involved somehow.

gg eberetta

[eberetta1]

You had a few good cards that were nice, but you played a better game than me today by far, congratz!

Round 2 match between Mike and eberetta1

Good games guys.

Looks like Mike is going for a repeat performance! When do your OFC quicktip vids come out, then?

[MadMojoMonkey]

I have not been able to send harring_sean his password for round 2 yet. PM's are not enabled.

harring_sean:
Please post ITT when would be a good time to send you the password. I can post it on your profile, but I want to make sure you're the one who receives / uses it. So I need you to post here when you're online.

SOLVED!

I have sent out the PM to harring_sean with the password.

Please note that the quarterfinals will last through the end of Saturday, with the semifinals starting on Sunday. If the delay getting the password to harring_sean caused a scheduling problem, please post ITT or send me a PM ASAP.

We'll be fine, thanks MMM!

[sam1FTR]

Harring_Sean crushed Sam into the fifth dimension

[MadMojoMonkey]

Another 60 point spread!

Review the round 2 match between sam1FTR and harring_sean here.

[agnesamurphy]

Well, I sent a PM to Puppymint. Can't say I didn't try.

If I end up winning this thing, then I owe it to him.

[Puppymint]

Well, I sent a PM to Puppymint.

confirmed and gl in the next round

[MadMojoMonkey]

We've made it to the semi-finals!

I'm having a minor delay creating the semi-final tables. PM's with passwords will be sent out as soon as I can resolve these issues.

[Eric]

I think the timed versions are now live. Should we use the timer for future rounds?

[agnesamurphy]

I tried to send harring_sean a PM. Said I couldn't do it because he hasn't enabled PMs.

I suppose let me know when you are available.

Hey @agnesamurphy, I can play tomorrow night if that works for you.

[agnesamurphy]

Hey @agnesamurphy, I can play tomorrow night if that works for you.

That does! Would 7 p.m. or 8 p.m. CST work for you?

[OhEfSEAbiscuit]

I tried to send messages but it wont allow me to.... Was trying to schedule game with mike....

[MadMojoMonkey]

We're working on a permanent solution to the issue with PMs... until then, you can use this thread to schedule your games.

[givememyleg]

I've enabled PMs for all accounts still in the tournament. Let me know if anyone still has issues.

[Mike1013]

My match against OhEfSEAbiscuit doesn't seem to be in the lobby. Neither he nor I can find an appropriately labeled table.

I don't see ANY open tables.

If you guys create a table and play the 20 rounds, that's fine. There's really nothing special about the tournament tables other than some conveniences.

If you remember to avoid clicking the "end game" button until the match is over... and that the match is 20 rounds... yada yada about FL and ties, then you should be fine.

After that, just post the link to your match ITT when you're done.

[MadMojoMonkey]

It looks like something strange is happening. I don't see the 'open games' in the lobby, so I'm guessing this is why the tournament games have not happened yet.

I've emailed the programmer to see if he's seeing what I'm seeing. Hopefully this will all be resolved soon.

[Mike1013]

OhEfSEAbiscuit wins by a landslide.

Although biscuit totally screwed up his fantasy hand imo:

Mike1013



OhEfSEAbiscuit (Dealer)

[OhEfSEAbiscuit]

Did I ever screw it up, u had already sat your hand before I had.... so I just set it quickly since it was round 20.... def set wrong

[MadMojoMonkey]

Yeah, I'd have done it like this:

[MadMojoMonkey]

Hey @agnesamurphy, I can play tomorrow night if that works for you.

It's coming down to the wire, harring_sean. Please contact agnes or myself ASAP. You can post in this thread if your PMs are not working.

I know agnes is sitting at your tournament table and will be free all this evening to play the match.

I'd really hate to disqualify you. It would make for 2 bye's in a row for agnes, who is my fiancee'. It looks pretty bad when the tournament organizer has a 'friend' who gets to advance twice without a match.

I'm willing to extend the quarterfinal round another day to allow for your match, but I have to draw the line there.

[MadMojoMonkey]

I absolutely can not extend the tournament any further.

harring_sean... You will be disqualified from the event if you and agnesamurphy haven't completed your match by midnight tonight.

[MadMojoMonkey]

harring_sean was eliminated as a no-show in the semifinal round. agnesamurphy advances automatically... again.

The updated bracket is posted in the OP.

The final round password has been sent.

The final round will last until Friday, November 8.

[agnesamurphy]

OhEfSEAbiscuit Please show up! This would be the worst first place ever if you don't!

[eberetta1]

They say a win is a win. If seabiscuit is a no show that would not be a good thing. It would never ever ever be forgotten at this forum. It would probably kill off OFC poker at this forum.

[OhEfSEAbiscuit]

ever ever?? r u hinting at a conspiracy... lol... I should/will be there eberetta1

[agnesamurphy]

Yaaaaaay! I actually get to play OFC in the OFC tournament I entered!

Sorry Miss Jackson, I am for reals...

[agnesamurphy]

agnesamurphy beats OhEfSEAbiscuit!!!!

GG biscuit

A big thanks to Puppymint and harring_sean for giving me byes I didn't deserve.

[Eric]

Congrats, agnesamurphy!

[Savy]

Congrats on the win. Sorry you didn't get to play more games partly my fault.

[agnesamurphy]

Congrats on the win. Sorry you didn't get to play more games partly my fault.

I don't blame you. He didn't have to withdraw. He didn't have to let the name-calling get in the way of winning.

[MadMojoMonkey]

Congratulation agnesamurphy! Nice win. Good luck against Barry Greenstein!

See the final round here.

[sam1FTR]

Congrats Agnes, good luck vs Barry Greenstein!

[agnesamurphy]

Barry beat my butt!
