So, regarding the KoldKappuccino vs RawMelon Ive made a really sound mistake and I will clarify the situation here.

At first, I decided to give the activity call to RawMelon based upon a quick inspection of the contact that was taking place on the walls

Based my decision on the last post on KoldKappuccino's wall at 11:51 AM on Sunday (which would be at 1 AM on KoldKappuccino's time, way after deadline)

But, KoldKappuccino messaged me explaining the situation with connectivity issues on Saturday and how RawMelon missed the first schedule around Friday at like 9 PM on RawMelon's time. After that, the contact between both wasnt clear enough to determine an specific time and by consequence took a wrong decision on activity.

After much thought and analysis, I came to the conclusion that giving the activity win to RawMelon based on a quick glance without reading into detail was a terrible mistake from my part and I apologize, the correct resolution was giving a coinflip.

And hence Im fixing my mistake through that:



One of the players involved was present during the coinflip moment and this image, alongside the presence, proves the transparency of the procedure. Wanted to the extra small on this one.

So KoldKappuccino wins the coinflip. I sincerely apologize again to RawMelon for this and I will accept the consequences of my incompetence if this leads to anything bigger.

New Matchup:

Rakan vs KoldKappuccino

Apologies again, we can move on.

It seems there is problems with both Tricking and Gentlemenian getting their matches done due to timezones inconveniences so I will just extend that and hopefully they can get it done.
