I usually do check. nobody started when I checked at 9:10 est. I advanced the week at 9:30 est after putting my kids down. We advance at 10 est if games aren't started by at least 9:00 est it won't finish before the advance time at 10 est which is why I simmed the rest of the week. You all know I don't wait on anybody at advance do to the fact we have so many days to get our games in and only advance twice a week. Had you guys let me know you started later I probably would've waited. You both waited till the last minute to get your game in. Get your games in earlier to avoid this in the future.
Can you please explain how to get my game in earlier if my opponent is sick or whatever and cannot play until advance day? Should I miss work to get home earlier so that instead of starting at 8:13 or something CST we start by 8:00?
The OP in the thread says "10pm est SHARP!!". Maybe just make it simple and at 10pm EST "SHARP!!" check the GroupMe to see if anyone is playing and if not, advance? You didn't even check GroupMe. Had you posted asking if anyone was going to play, we'd have told you. Had we known the league was going to be advanced some time other than "10pm est SHARP!!" maybe we would have let someone in there know.
Just less contradictions please. We advance at 10pm EST sharp. Unless you advance early. You never wait on anyone to finish. Unless maybe we had asked for maybe extra time then maybe you maybe would have potentially given us extra time.
Your reaction in GM was "oh snap. at least you get a higher draft pick". That's garbage. The idea that my record sucks and thus the games I try to play are somehow irrelevant is garbage. This is the last I will speak on this but you done fucked it up.
