Current status: WINNER! - King_Of_Thorns + Zen_God
Round 1a began at 5PM on 4/21/2010 and ended at 11:59PM EST on 4/30/2010.

Players responsible for hosting and scheduling their own matches. Then, the winning team must provide a replay and a link to the pantheon stats here for tracking purposes, for every game played. Please feel free to use this thread get your matches scheduled.
There will be a need to disqualify teams that aren't making the required effort to get their games in without penalizing another team that's doing whatever they can to get a match scheduled. It's probably best if teams that are trying to organize matches go on record in the forums. For instance, if I was playing against say AtMa and Ba, I'd post something like the following in this thread:
Atma + Ba: trouser and pacov are generally available M-F from 5pm EST - 1AM EST. Please let us know if some time in that slot would work for you or recommend a time slot that works. I'll PM you in a few days if I haven't heard from you or we can discuss this on lagwars vent.
Something like that. If it comes down to disqualifying teams because they didn't get their match in, the more info and tracking you have indicating that you did your best to get the match scheduled the better.
Here is the FINAL bracket - UPDATED 6/5/2010
Tournament Rules:
How will we handle crashes:
If there is a game crash, the players involved in that match should see if they can come to a consensus on the probable outcome of the match. If there is no clear winner, the 2 teams should replay the match using the exact same demigods and sides (light/dark). If there was a clear winner at that point in the game, then that team should be awarded the win. If the 2 teams disagree on the outcome, a third party will review the replay of the match and render a decision. Be aware that the 3rd party must agree that a specific team was going to win or the results will be thrown out and the match redone.
How we will handle invalid game states:
The lastgamereplay file is still created in the event of an invalid game state, so it is still possible to review the results of a match. In the event of an invalid game state, players should attempt to resolve the issue exactly the same way as game crashes. If you believe foul play occurred, submit the replay along with any screen shots, etc, as evidence and we will review. If there is a CLEAR consensus that a team is willingly triggering invalid game states, that team should be disqualified after a thorough review of the facts. Please be reasonable, though. We all know that Demigod has its bugs and its still pretty easy to encounter an invalid game state even if no one has intentionally triggered it. If your game does crash, it might be advisable to take a screen shot of the crash as proof. Be aware that we know invalid game states can occur without any sort of foul play, so please be mindful when submitting requests for review.
Prizes:
Outside of prestige in our small community, there is also a cash prize thanks to community contributions. The total (and probably final) amount paid for this tournament is $200. If you would like to contribute to the pot, please pm me and I'll get you the needed info to send me a payment. If individuals do not come through on their pledges, I will not be personally covering the difference. My goal is to collect the pledged amount before the tournament starts and I will be providing updates as I receive the pledged money.
Please thank our contributors and consider contributing to the prize yourself.

GG to the both of you. You both played really well, but one of you COUGH needs to work on his monk sharing skills. It's unfortunate that it turned into a paper beats rock sort of situation for you later game... you guys were really messing me up mid game! I knew TB/Occ was dangerous, but jesus christ...
atma and ba when are you available
Jona and tacoguy. we are on lagwars vent almost all day long. I am not on demigod but for the past 4-5 days i have been leaving vent on in case you guys show up. I am on AFK status there but send me a private message, telling me the time that you want to play 1-2 hours earlier and i ll be there.
there has been effort to get the game in-behind the scenes, just passfail has been absent for a while and is busy with school. ive been on quite a bit and have played multiple times with zen. whether you will grant a week or so extension is ultimately up to you and/or others. i am about fairness as well, so if my luck of the draw is not so lucky, then so be it.
thanks, let me know
Ya I can do any weekday. Thursday night around 7 should be fine, I'll check in with Kalel when I see him on and see if he's ok with that.
also, Passfail - Everyone else is online for your game
Any weekday night is good for me. Thursday is the only day I won't be available in the early evenings (more like 10pm+)
I'll talk to atma and work out a time...let us know which nights are good for u guys.
Man Prozombe, you and passfail are killing me here, I'm getting tired of this constantly checking demigod till 5am to see if you guys are on. I can understand extending the dealine through the weekends, then asking for an extra day, but this is just pushing it. I told Passfail earlier that if he doesn't grace us with his presence today, that you guys should step down, I don't like that it's come to that, but I'm tired of waiting. I'll wait for about 1 - 2 hours maximum, but past that, I'm gonna have to ask you to step down unforuantely.
If pacov insists that the deadline is extended, out of my hands, but I say just end it here.
Here's my thought - I understand that there are scheduling conflicts - especially with folks that were randomly paired. I share the interest of most here in seeing all games actually happen. So, realistically - if we grant another extension, how sure are you that you guys can get your game in? I ask because holding up the tourney just for you guys isn't that great, but we could do it... but I also assume we'll be in the same boat for scheduling if you fellas move onto the next round. I'm willing to give it a shot, but only if you are 100% sure you can get a game in the next week. If not, we should disqualify you guys and move on. Let me know asap plz.
I think the first step to scheduling a match is setting up a specific time. The second step is to show up. It's not that hard. All this "We'll be on" stuff is retarded. handle.
In that case lets have our game tomorow morning at 9am pst. Thats usually around the time I get home from work and should be ready to go. Jona is usually on around that timeas well. Hopefully he will be on tomorow.
I've been camping on vent for Jona for the past 3 days and he has not shown his face, except for a few minutes here and there to pm me and ask "you there" just so he can leave 20 seconds later.
I see how it is Jona
Jona's a tricky sort apparently... surely someone can reason with him to get him to play in the tourney he wanted in so badly... you'll be alright... worst case you lose...
cool... I'll check with trouser... heh - I just realized you were replying to me
edit - soooo.... out of all the replays we've had (for those of you that have been viewing them), what do you guys think is the best game so far?
And also - I really enjoyed when rawrrrr + ninki were providing commentary on the naur/koll game. Sadly, the 1st game had an invalid gamestate, and I'm not sure if a replay was saved (i think the lastgamereplay file still would have the data, but I'm not sure). I would LOVE to see a game with live or post game commentary saved as a video that we could watch. I know a few people in the community are really into this, so you guys have my support if someone is up for it.
I do have some concerns regarding game stability though... the one game where they commented, rawrrr + ninki were in game (one on each team) and just stayed behind the crystal to not interfere. That said, the game had an invalid gamestate.
Anyway - I'm not 100% sure if everyone would be on board for rawrrr/kalel v pacov/trouser, but I'd be up for trying to have 2 commentators in game to give it a shot. I'd like to do a real quick test where its just the 4 of us so we can get a feel for what the lag is like. Then do a 2nd test to see if we can have the 2 commentators in game with us without any real difference in lag (then we start a 3rd game that will be official in the tourney). Anyway, i think it would be fun to have all the bells and whistles for this and a few other games in the tourney if people are up for it. I think ninki did a good job last time, so I'd like him to be a commentator, but I'm not sure who would make a good second for him. My hopes would be the other guy would have a good grasp of 2v2 tactics and strategy. Let me know if you are interested here. If any of you in the game I mentioned are opposed to this, just pm or let me know on vent and I'll simply say we aren't up for a live broadcast - no harm, no foul without mentioning any names.
Ok. I talked to shane and we'll be on lagwars vent at 9 am pst tomorrow(tuesday).
If our match has again been extended, please try to message me more passfail and Prozombe with what could maybe work for you.
To be serious though, even if this match does go underway, not being rude or anything but I doubt you could pull a win on me and Zen. Feel free to try if you insist on playing.
well... it has been extended if pass/pro indicate here the soonest they will commit to play. If there is any reason to disqualify due to a scheduling conflict, koush/zen will NOT be disqualified.
Taco is on in the mornings. Orcun is never on in the mornings, so i dont see how we are going to get a match in? I just read this last page. Sry I havent been available the past few days so I did not see this. Can we do it tomorrow(wensday) at 9?
Boxxy you are probably right, we will have a hard time aginst you two, but hey... anything can happen in demigod.
As prozombe already said i am very busy with school nowadays and will have problems playing this tournament. The best thing for me would be as boxxy suggested ingame.. to step down from tournament.
Maybe you 2 want to play against me and prozombe outside of the tournament sometime? without a time limit and just for fun
Yeah man, if we are gonna play together it should be outside of a tournament or something when you ain't so busy. If you want find me, it isn't really hard.
IP: boxxy.zapto.orgPORT: 3784
This is me and Renz's vent channel, come in any time and ask to play me/us/whomever. Just uh, don't be easily offended lol, anything goes in that channel .
If you guys aren't going to bother to play your game against zen/koush then because you won't beat them then I won't bother to play my game against them either because they won't beat us.
In fact, by that logic we'll just play orcun and shane for the tourny finals tonight.
Also you have had 17 days since the results of your first round to schedule with zen. There are 5 days remaining. No one is so busy that over the course of 22 days they can't find 2 hours to play games.
528 consecutive hours your face is either in a book or in bed? C'mon, people need breaks to keep their brain from exploding.
Oh ho Magnus, some trash talk, I love it. Just makes this tournament that bit more interesting. Bout time this good sportsmen took to the sidelines. I've pretty much pegged Orcun and Shane winning however though lol.
Also, the point is Magnus that finding time to play Demigod is easy, but time where both of them can play is why we've extended this deadline by 3 days.
Well as foreseen we lost, I didn't do my best but its hard to go against the best dg player ever with someone who only can play one dg and uses all interrupts at the beginning of a fight =/. Not to say I helped very much all in all it was a big team suckiness.
Ok lets say this is offical then. Due to scheduling (lack of), me and passfail are disqualifying ourselves. Good luck to you guys in the tourny. Anxious to see the outcome and was really hoping to keep playing. We should def try to match up outside tourny for fun though.
