That's sucks!Interesting tidbits from chatting with some of the gents while watching this stream- https://www.twitch.tv/etxlive
Apparently in the Queensland, Australia Regional, 2 players were cut from the Top 8 because they failed to list Guidance Chips in their submitted lists. Ouch.
And apparently another player who did get into the top 8 was eliminated as he brought Boba, even included the point for him in his list, but didn't write it down.
Geez - Aussies are tough. Moral of the story: use an online list builder and print out your list! Writing a list in is just prone to stupid mistakes...
At least one of the players had a printed list from an online builder and didn't include the Chips.
One of the faults was a guy who pointed out the failure himself and took the DQ.
The cascade of rechecks on lists and then DQs caused a lot of players to have scores out of whack.
It caused me to be pushed out of the Top 8, but then after the other DQ, put me back in.
I thought my head was going to explode.
I have to say that the guys running it, particularly Ado, did a good job with the ugly situation.
And also that the player base on a whole was really civil (at the event). There where no blow-ups and all discussion was reasonable.
I'm glad everyone appreciated what a difficult situation it was.
