I'm confused, does the tourney start at 12 Noon PST, or 10 AM, PST, which is 3:00 PM and 1:00 PM in EST? and also, is the tournament on sundays?

Can't wait for tomorrow.
Btw. what happens if someone gets disconnected?
Event organizers, please answer this. Should we post in our group thread when this happens and let people know? It's sometimes not apparent for other people when someone disconnects because an NPC takes over for them once they dc.

Hey All!

I just thought of this & maybe it was mentioned somewhere & I did not see it.

We should turn off our online status so other friends who are not part of the tournament cannot join us. ;)

edit: this can be done in the settings where you register friends or in settings in mk7 itself.

WTF!???!!! I am locked out of my thread only to find you all raced again while i was trying to post the results of the first race & did not race in the second race. this is BS!!!!!

edit: the rules stated we were allowed an hour after the race to post results. well we started @ 3:18 pm EST or 12:18pm PST & finished @ 3:40pm EST or 12:40pm PST so we had until 4:18 EST or 1:18 PST to post. I was already locked out & not included in the second race that was allowed.

Here is the rule: 5. Everyone in your group is responsible for taking a screenshot of the cup results. Be sure to post them in your group thread no later than 1 hour after the race start time. Be aware that you only have a limited time to take the photo once the cup races are finished. You as an individual, and as a group are responsible for providing at least one screenshot. No excuses. Failing to provide a screenshot will disqualify your entire group.

I made the call to let your group restart the GP, because of organizational issues. I even gave you guys a 15 minute extension. I'm truly sorry that you lost out, but my ruling still stands.

I remain in protest! You are not following your own rules!
1)You made the call to allow a second race because someone apparently did not take off their online status & some unknown joined the race. Even after myself & pokefloote told everyone to set their onine status in the settings to NO.
2)The call was made @ 12:46 pm PST which was only 6 mins after the race stopped. That time was supposed be for allowing us to post results as we were given an hour after the race started to do so. That is what I was doing.
3)The thread for our group was locked before the hour was up for us to post. The first GP was only posted by: Dark, Sety & Pookefloote. The second GP was only posted by Pookefloote & Ronny.

The first GP was won by Dark & Sety. I see the second was won by them also. So I do congratulate them.

Yet the race remains unfair & the call for it to stand is by no means justified! The organization that is lacking is in the judge.

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz

    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)

    @BigOnYa, Lol I bought a new USB card reader thing on AliExpress last month for I think like 87 cents. Free shipping from China... It arrived it works and honestly I don't understand how it was so cheap.
