  12. i.suk
    Date: Sun, May 8 2011 09:15:41

    time limit 15 to 45 seconds, hmm...then again, it's about how effectively tricks are used and not merely spinning for 45 seconds if you feel like it =__="

    haha, i'm thinking that too...but given that the top spinner in each group will be facing the 2nd ranked spinner (who they faced earlier), it's way too risky to go all out in 3 rounds and come 1st in group, only to be beaten by the 2nd seed who distributed material more effectively -.- *strategises*

    @xSpin Go read the original post carefully.

  24. iColor

    tl;dr: All videos must be original for each battle. At the beginning of each round there will be a code provided that must be in sight of the camera at some point during the video. VIDEO CODE: the code you MUST have in your video for this round is "Opening Round"

  25. Hippo2626
    Date: Thu, May 19 2011 05:14:19

    Dunno' bout the rest but I think naving no 1 week break interval between the 2 weeks prep time for each round is very tiring can it be changed? @strat1227

  26. strat1227
    Date: Thu, May 19 2011 06:04:29

    @Hippo2626 no, the schedule is already a bit to long as it is Plus, people rarely take two full weeks working on their combo, most people film in the last 3 days anyway, why stretch out the time even longer

  27. Hippo2626
    Date: Thu, May 19 2011 07:30:23

    I see. I guess 'cause I'm a noob so I need the whole 2 weeks for 1 combo.

  28. strat1227
    Date: Thu, May 19 2011 07:34:47

    Well I don't even understand what you mean as a "break", if we add another week between every round all it means is every round is 3 weeks, if we did that then you'd be asking for a week break between the 3 week rounds lol you should be able to come up with 2 combos a month, not that hard

  29. Hippo2626
    Date: Thu, May 19 2011 07:37:52

    I mean something like the WT format. 2 weeks to produce the combo. 1 week for the results to be out (break for the spinners) then another 2 weeks. Hist a suggestion but if I'm the only one who feels that way it's fine, I'll suck it up!!

    I had this discussion with Iota already ... everyone can vote in their own battles it doesn't matter ... everyone will probably vote for themselves so it will even out, and if you think the other person destroyed you then your one vote probably won't change anything, they'll probably win by a landslide so everyone, feel free to vote in your own thread it doesn't matter it won't change anything

    June 3rd or June 10th? coz the polls are meant to run for 1 week after R1 vids handed in, and they closed yesterday...so only 1 week has passed for ppl to film their R2 combos? maybe i forgot something, but check please ^^

    Date: Wed, Jun 1 2011 01:52:13

    I was very clear in the original post that you were supposed to spend the week of polls working on your combo as well 1 combo every 2 weeks is not very hard to do, if you guys wasted this last week there's not much i can do :dunno: there's not enough time to do 1 combo every 3 weeks, it would take forever, we set the schedule and now have to stick to it i even posted dates in the original post :dunno:

    sorry guys i'm out of town, you could have mentioned icolor and asked if you needed to know the schedule said the 19th (again you can read the first post for the answer i dont know why you're confused) you're supposed to have them in by sunday night midnight EST, but if you need to be 6-12 hours late that'll be ok, but if it's later than that it will cause problems

  84. i.suk
    Date: Thu, Jun 16 2011 15:03:12

    miscalculation in dates on roster xD (possibly? round 2 vid deadline was june 6th, as stated earlier in this thread somewhere, so round 3 deadline is 20th if round times are 'overlap' by one day, 21st if not) round 1 = may 8 to 22 -->14 days round 2 = may 23 to june 5 --> 13 days =__=" meant to be june 6th (it was changed to june 6th later, actually) so round 3 should be june 7 to june 21? idk, it seems on roster it had round 2 AND 3 as 13 days each (intentional? as rounds are every 2 weeks including 'overlap'? idk), not really sure (sorry for being pedantic, should've mentioned this agesss ago) sighs, feel guilty for causing trouble for PSL organisers repeatedly -.-

  85. strat1227
    Date: Thu, Jun 16 2011 15:06:14

    Videos are due every other sunday at midnight, like i've said several times already how about you just turn it in a day early that way you never have to worry about it. then it's still 2 weeks for you if you always turn it in a day early if you guys would not try to wait until the last possible second then it wouldn't be an issue

    @strat1227 Hey there! The next video as the plan says should be released this weekend, but I don't even know who advanced into the Half Finals. So the thing is that I don't want to record anything until I know whether I advanced or not. Further it seems like that both of you have lost the interest in further organisation in this leagues. It seems as if we were lonely and in fact, we cn not go on like this. I mean, we don't even know the video code for the next round. Please continue with this league as you did in the first round. It is only 2 rounds left. greetings Kiyo

  92. i.suk
    Date: Wed, Jun 29 2011 12:46:44

    @Kiyo video code for next round is 'Preparation', and since polls for R3 are closed, you can deduce who is in next round by seeing who the 2 best spinners from your group/side are but still, i'd like an official announcement too :P

    I don't know all the data of who won how much, and with what vote number. Frankly, I don't think we should have to look all that up. I'm going to be out of town this coming week, so hopefully there insta a due date during that time if I somehow made it farther...@iColor, please do some sort of officioal announcement of this with both A and B?
