Moderator: Tournament Directors
Jweezy, he's referring to The Cold War tournament of yours. It will be YOUR fault if he doesn't receive a medal. It is your responsibility as the organizer to announce a winner when the tournament is completed. If you do not do so, then he will not receive a medal and YOU will receive an abandoned tournament mark. It's how the system works.JweezyIII wrote:i am sry the u did not get ur tournement winner medal and in all fairness i think u should also get the tournament achievement i was given.
Barry, this is not meant to be a slight against you; I just have to make sure the organizers do the job they've signed up to do.Gilligan wrote:The organizer MUST have announced the winner in some way. If someone approaches a Tournament Director claiming to have won a tournament where the organizer didn't officially declare a winner, then it does not count.

I previously argued that the TD's should actually have this power, especially if the player has left CC. As a TO, you've given up your right to ownership in this case. This policy should be looked at.Tournament Handbook wrote:Unfortunately, as Tournament Directors, we cannot grant you the privileges to take over a tournament without the permission of the original organizer.

However, on a legal technicality, it does not say that an Admin cannot grant privileges. Hence, and admin could allow a TD take it on and see it to completion.

What about bending the spirit of the lawjpcloet wrote:No, just finding the holes in text. I spent 3 years for a Legal Regulatory organization, and it's incredibly tough to write legal documents. That's why we have judges to decide spirit vs letter.
All rise, the honorable Judge Prime residing.
Just curious, why didn't you get him to just make a post in the actual tournament thread saying who the winner was? It's a waste of time to post in this thread and keep it going when all that has to be done for the whole situation to dissolve is for a post from the organizer in the tournament thread announcing the winner. I would have gotten the organizer to come and make that post rather than the one here.sailorseal wrote:He has quit CC, I was only able to get him to post that (vs. the flame he wanted to post) because I explained it, but he will not return again.
Sorry
