i am an evil man i say for breaking the rules they should be forced to resign. timtim has a peachy looking rating though and it will hurt.

nobody needs to resign... (especially not my top clan player😛)
and they did not brake the rules because there was no rule... the only rule was to have a flag on and that they do. i agree that it is worthless to say that a tourney is for afericans, but to allow any player to join.

You're really wrong on this:if I join the Oceania tournament (I'm italian),I'm breaking the rules.
Russ said that he can do nothing if people get silly (his words)and enter the wrong tourny.
However mossgroup entered the wrong one and suddendly resigned all his games.........a great gesture for sure.

Name Grand Continent : Africa
Description African entrants only : Flags must be on to enter.
Timeout 1 days
Timebank 14 days


I don't think flags must be on was the only rule. Go check for yourself.

if it was me i would do the honorable thing and resign all my games and let the saffas fight it out ;-)

if timtim wanted more games then why not just create 25 million open invites ??? that should increase his game load.

i think he is telling porkies, he saw he was stronger than all the others and wanted a cup on his profile. that is what i think.

why would you think that??

i can tell you from expirience that timtim is an exteremly strong player, and that his real rating is somewhere in the 2000...
now if you will look closer at ALL of the grand continent tourneys you will se that the south america one (where timtim does really live)
has even less strong players then the africa one... so i seriously doubt he did it only too 'get another cup on his profile'
so before you accuse people for no reason, take a look, timtim is a new player and he did not now that it was so critical what flag he has on.

a. coz if he wanted to increase his game load then just create open invites.

my geography is bad, but i am pretty sure Texas is not in south america. this again just reinforces my earlier opinion.

as for the accusations, well if u enter a tourney that is clearly stated "Africans only" people are going to talk. i know all the saffas in the group are peeved and rightly so.

i am prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt, so it was a mistake then.

i can understand why you might be mad at him. but it upsets me that you only mentioned him because of his rating...
i am in the south america tourney, but you didnt even bother checking because of my low rating. if i would have a high rating i am pretty sure you would look.

if you have an opinion stick by it to every palyer and not only the stronger ones

It's obvious that you didn't read the ''GrandContinents'' thread where timtim says he's aware of it (he didn't enter the tourny for mistake because he's''new''😉 and tells people to shut up.
If you want more games put more invites:by entering the wrong tourny you close the opportunity to enter to another user who has the right to.
You haven't this right and it's things like that that cause so many troubles to the admins in organizing range tournaments.................

And there's another 'Continents' thread - started by Russ, in which he declares that ONLY people from the appropriate continent can win the tournament. Which also contains a much nicer post from TimTim.

I know this goes over a few threads in the tournaments section but it is fairly obvious that it has been resolved?

Of course you're going to defend him! Haha! Why didn't I see it before? He's the strongest player in your clan, if he gets shunned by these people they won't play your clan. So then you would have a choice between dropping a good player or not playing matches against certain clans. Don't you think you're opinion might be a little too biased?
