Hi @thalapathy_64 : my best guess is . as he live in German, are you sure that it's 2:30 am UTC . not 14:30 UTC ? because if 2:30 am UTC it will be past midnite for him
as sometime time zone can be confusing, also AM/ PM, that is why I always use 14:30 instead of 2:30 PM for instance
ok noted. Either he forgot. or he thought its 14:30 UTC. We will have to wait & see his reply.
anyway, as this is double round robin, there's still chance to reschedule
Rd-3 : Thalapathy_64 vs Beeonhoney : 1 - 0 ( Win without play).
Explanation : As I guess, Beeonhoney come online at 2:30 PM UTC (14:30 UTC) waiting to play with Thalapathy_64.
Beeonhoney told me that in his chat (with Thalapathy_64) earlier, that his availabilities in between 1.30 pm - 11 pm UTC (13:30 - 23:00 UTC) .
When Thalapathy_64 offer time 02:30 AM ( as copied by Thalapathy_64 above), Beeonhoney confirm YES without realizing that Thalapathy wrote 02:30 AM (which is 08:00 morning at India where thalapathy_64 lives) and 04:30 am morning where Beeonhoney lives (in German). which is Beeonhoney told me that it is impossible to play at 04:30 am morning German time.
I offer Thalapathy_64 the chance to reschedule, but Thalapathy_64 said he is already very busy with his other schedule/ league etc. so there is no chance for reschedule unfortunately.
" For future reference to all players, it is best to use 12:01 - 23:59 format ( instead of 00:01 PM - 11:59 PM) "
As Beeonhoney come online around 14:30 UTC, but there is no game , I offer him to play our Rd-6 game : fhunfi (W) vs Beeonhoney (B), that supposed to be played at Jul 16 - Jul 31 (but it's okay to be played earlier, as this is Double Round Robin tourney, not Swiss)
He agreed to play - we had good moment playing the game today. Result : 1 - 0
