Sorry dudes, I was at work, and don't have control over that stuff anyways. I had no idea we were doing wagers, until Hippy called me at work and let me know.

Its a pain doing Japanese promotions as you can never find an accurate start time for these things. I'm convinced they don't even know what it is, considering they don't have their cards finalized until the last minute anyways.

Sorry to folks who didn't get their wagers in in time.

I remember you saying this.....

"This happens at least once or twice a season in the secondary league. If there isn't a reasonable amount of time between events (usually 48 hours), we don't allow wagers for the second event, so no wagers will be available for Dream 3. "

But yet you still got your picks in

Too bad I think your gonna miss your parley you could donate all your funds to those of us that listened to you.......

FYI not trying to be an ass but do hold your statments higher than the average poster because your a Mod....

I appreciate your concern. However, I think since an overwhelming majority of participants were unable to make wagers for Dream 3 the wagers should be canceled. There should at least be a vote or something, as there was only one person in the top 50 who was able to get their wagers in. Anyways, I just think it is unfair and something needs to be done. If the wagers cannot be overturned, that is fine. I just think that those of us who didn't get to make wagers are getting the shaft. I'm glad some people got to make wagers, it just sucks for the rest of us.

Thats how we did it last season, but we're under new Admin, and I guess we're doing it different this time. Like I said, I had no clue until like 20 minutes before the wagers closed, and thats only because Hippy was nice enough to call me at work so I could get my kick-ass parley in there I'm sure with my $600 bankroll, I'll take this season easily.

I'm not sure how this will be handled, as its totally out of my hands, but if you have a concern about the time available to put in wagers, just put it here and I'm sure the site owner and admin will see it.

That was terrible, why would the mods let people wager on Dream 3? Extremely unfair to the large majority of people who weren't on at that time to update their wagers.

Yeah, that is obvious....Yet, with this event the majority missed wagers. Most didn't check because we were told we wouldn't be able to. So, most felt there was no need to check and when I checked I was unable to. It's over and done with, but I think Hippysmacker needs to do some explaining. There should have been an announcement or PM sent to give us a fair warning, but there wasn't. Good job with your wagers though, lucky bastard.
