Ok first of all apologies for not being here, I didnt get any e-mail reminders about this topic and have been busy lately trying to sort crap out in work because im leaving this place soon.
Right first of all,

Im not sure why you think the 5 man team is a bad idea, maybe you could elaborate on that one? I realize that it means team captains have to decide on who plays and who doesnt, but the thing about it is, it makes organising matches a lot easier because there are more people and if one is missing its not a problem. The second is that I was planning to try and make it that each player must play a certain number of matches. So it gives the team captain the choice of when to play people. However with the current sign ups we are getting, were gonna struggle to have 3 man teams nevermind 5 man.
With regards to the punishment system. Ok fair enough we had a few problems the last tournament, but the last tournament was a learning curve for this one. We can now implement this sort of stuff like team captains making a decision that they want to drop a player in place of a new one if they can find a suitable person. We can factor into the rules that if we dont hear from someone for a week that they are dropped. But we cant go into the fact of punishing people for shit that goes on in real life man, its uncontrolable. I agree yes its frustrating, and personally if i remember correctly I apologised to inside joke for getting a bit pissed off, because its out of anyones control what happens in real life.
Inside joke -
I would really like you to take part in this tournament. Im not going to hold a grudge or anything and as i said just now to bo, i believe i apologised if i remember correctly for gettin a bit pissed off. I fully understand that real life gets in the way sometimes so we all gotta deal with it, if your commitment to XS is too big then thats fine, but if you can handle it please sign up.

'If I sign up, and it's still an if after last time' - explanation?
As i said above sign ups are poor at the moment so im looking for as many people to sign up as possible. If we get enough sign ups and everyone is ok with the 5 man team thing, i will try to make sure your on a 5 man team, so that if you need to rush off, then someone is there to replace you. Either way, id like to see you sign up.
