I have Fraps full version but it may slow the game down. I'll try it.

I'm not comfortable with the number of volunteers here. Someone always flakes.

Since its bidding tournament why not allow the Torch then? You might get a few more people.

-and no, I will never stop beating this drum. It’s a silly thing to impose, especially since you’ve excluded the top tier players.

Amiga, if you want tournaments with the Torch allowed, feel free to host some...

By "a few", you must mean "one".

Indeed. I don't think anyone's going to try and stop him from doing this.

Despite my bad record with flaking, there's a 97.5% chance that I can play this weekend if you're planning another tournament.

Actually, that's not true anymore. I won't speak for them. If they see this thread they will speak up for themselves, hopefully.

I won't be able to play anyway, but I don't see why you need to ban it. I mean, no one who can be good with it will be playing.

You don't need to be good with it. Only a small amount of skill at the game is involved in Thraddash abuse. If C Bob can poke my Chmmr to death in a practice bout, I'm sure other average and below-average players can too. Also, newbie players play dirty as often as regulars, they just do it with Spathi and force a stalemate by running away instead of something more dangerous.

when I clicked the thread I was hoping it would be an all-druuge tournament :-)

but this looks like fun.  I'll do it if someone drops out.

Alright, I got my times for the European regions wrong (they're fixed now) so the tournament is being postponed by an hour on the hope that Dabir actually follows through on his word. SweetSassyMolassy, who almost definitely lives in the US, has decided to flake once again. We're down one person at the moment.

Dabir and SweetSassyMolassy have both decided not to show up. May lightning fry their motherboards. I'm starting with a few different people and will cover the results later...
