You played with more than 2 people in that match. You had 3 people in it according to Lisa_, its a 1v1 league, meaning you vs Lisa_ in that match lol.
She's online now, sort your match out, play her 1v1 over your 3 tracks, which are
GBA SHY GUY BEACH
N64 MARIO RACEWAY As said twice in my PM, and also as stated in the fixture....
N64 SHERBET LAND
4th race doesn't matter, only the first three do.

ROUND 1
riginal:Luigi Circuit, DK Snowboard Cross, Grumble Volcano
Vertabray vs Boxhunter
Ronnieboy vs Piepants
OzModChips vs Bong
Only 3 games to go in round 1......
ROUND 2: Classic: GBA Shy Guy Beach, N64 Mario Raceway, N64 Sherbet Land
Chaazziiee vs Piepants
Vertabray vs Bong
Ronnieboy vs iPANIC
OzModChips vs Boxhunter
Only 4 games to go in round 2, hoping that Lisa_ vs ronnieboy will happen tonight, as will Vertabray vs Bong.
Heard nothing from Piepants, and Boxhunter skipped his round 1 against Vertabray, and haven't heard from him since.
Both ladders have been updated, will update tomorrow morning the updated ladder with forfeits if need be. Vertabray, Chaaziiee are the only 2 safe from forfeits in their games due to Piepants having vanished, and same goes with Boxhunter.

Try playing Sherbet Island again mate, that'd make things easier, if she can't or doesn't, i'll adjust the win to you.

Cheers man.
Now, the results for week 1 will be posted shortly, both ladders.
There were only a few forfeit wins given out, with a few more forfeit losses. Basically, it works as follows:
Forfeit win: 2-1. You'll gain this, if proven you contacted your opponent early in the week, and they didn't turn up to a match, or ignored you completely.
Forfeit loss: 0-3. You'll gain this, if you skipped a planned match, or never bothered to organize your match despite an opponent contacting you.
We chose to go with a 2-1 win for Forfeit wins, due to a few people thinking a 3-0 win might be too much, given it only takes 2 points to win a match. It changes the team points slightly given the winner gets 2-1, but does not give players wins who decided to try and be dodgy. Again, the 1 loss for the forfeit winning player, doesn't really affect anything, it's just a basic stat.
We will be replacing 2-3 players this week. I am hoping to do this tomorrow, so as not to disadvantage those playing said opponents.
Piepants will be replaced with tredes.
Can those who have Piepants on their lists, please delete him, and add tredes instead, if you haven't added him already. (He's listed on the league listing) The reason we're asking you to delete those not on the league, or tourney listing, is so we don't run out of room in the future, as your friend list can only be 30 big.
Ozmodchips and Boxhunter will be dropped from the league, and hoping everyone can delete them as well. Boxhunter promised game times he never held, and made excuses as to why he wasn't available when he was. I will be sorting out their replacements over the coming days. It has come to my attention, that Boxhunter copied our league names, A-LEAGUE, B-LEAGUE, our Team names, Red Lightning became Blue Lightning, Blue Shells became Red Shells and so on, and has made his own copycat league elsewhere. I'm all for everyone playing MK however they want, but i hate people directly copying other peoples ideas, especially down to the level of unoriginality that is seen in boxhunters attempts at plagiarism.
Other than that, we had 13 players who all played at least 1 match/3 races, 9 players who played all their matches/6 races, while 3 players, who played no matches/6 races.
So getting 13 players having competed after the first week, i'm pretty happy with. All leagues, tournaments, online can run into problems, and can be hard to find the right group of people to play with overall.
There will always be people who put their name down for things, but can't be stuffed, or believe they are too busy, or will DC if they look like losing. But, for the most part we seem to have a fairly good group of people together, and we just have to find a few more people willing to take 15-30 mins a week to have a race.
I was around the 360 scene for a long time running and participating in leagues, and it is a way of keeping games that usually will grow old, get 100 times more replay value than you'd ever get just racing someone randomly online. We've got a 1v1 situation so it makes the game much different from the usual worldwide/continental races you find online, but we also have the teams set up to give each player something to be a part of, and finally, our tournaments so that if your not so good in the 1v1, or your unlucky in it, you might find you go better when it comes to 4-12 player GPs.
Down the track, if we can get a good community together, i think we could have a fantastic, fun and competitive environment.
Things to note:
After season 1, adjustments will be made to the league format, if only slightly.
If we can build up a successful and willing community, i will look into building a website, buying a domain name etc.
If that happens, we could have an entire Australian Wii League Community. We would be one of the only pure league set ups worldwide, dedicated purely to league/tourney gaming on the Wii. Games could expand to include stuff like Smash Bros Brawl, Mario Strikers, PES 2008 etc. I've run leagues with Prize set ups in the past for xbox 360, including prizes for the winners of the Table Tennis leagues from Microsoft Australia themselves. Down the track, i could potentially see this happening as well with the Mario Kart, and possibly Smash Bros aussie leagues.
For that to work, and for us to end up having something along those lines, means we need people to show a little effort, interest, and to just be able to put in, in some way or another. If it means putting your name up to host a mario kart night of GPs and Battles, that can make a difference, if its to help out with the league, even better.
Final note, i will be setting up a Mario Kart GP room, at 8pm AEST, Mon/Tue/Wed nights this week. If your online, come into the room, and have some GPs, Team GP's, and some Balloon Battles with myself and others from the league, just have some good fun with our small community, the more the merrier.

Nice post there armand, you're just about writing a novel at times
The forfeit wins/losses idea sounds good to me.
No comment regarding boxhunters... actions, other than he's been gladly deleted from my friend roster.

I'll be replacing Boxhunter with "Marty_AU", as soon as i get Martin to get sorted and make himself a gbatemp profile lol.
Have yet to find a replacement for Ozmodchips, but hoping to today.
As far as your 2v2 tournament this week.
The "Semi-final" round is as follows:
Wednesday Night: 7-9pm.
Armada
Elo
muss
Dan
Thursday Night: 7-9pm
Vertabray
Jerome
Chaazziiee
ronnieboy
The winning team from each game will go into the final, to be played on Friday/Saturday or Sunday night. Losing teams from the semi gain 9 points per player in tournament ladder, while losing finalists gain 12 each, and the winning finalist 15 each.
EDIT: TOURNAMENT details for the 2v2 tourney are now on page 1 of the thread.
Marty_AU will be taking over from Boxhunter, and so this week Chaazziiee , and Ronnieboy have to play Marty.
The ladders/fixtures are updated, will be updating League Listing with Marty_AU's friend code soon.

^That would be Forfeit Win. You still haven't replied to my PM, Lisa(also trebes, if you're reading this). When are you available to play our match? Right now I've got to go to work, but I can play tomorrow, or if you want we can do it on the weekend.
I'm down for Thursday night at 7-9pm AEST (5-7pm AWST) for the team tourney.
