ggs Jengajam. You have always been one of the players to have my number every time we’ve met (4-9 record all time until today). Mad respect, one of the GOAT Yomi players honestly.

When are people going to actually play their matches?

I’ve given people a catchup week this week. Hopefully some of them get done.

Week 2 matches have been done for a while now, I just haven’t updated the MU spread. So here you go:

By games played*:

Character	Games	W	Win %
Troq	        21	12	57%
Grave	        16	9	56%
Geiger	        15	7	47%
Bal-Bas-Beta	14	7	50%
Zane	        12	6	50%
DeGrey          9	2	22%
Rook	        6	3	50%
Persephone	5	3	60%
Gwen	        4	1	25%
Midori	        3	3	100%
Onimaru	        3	3	100%
Menelker	3	1	33%
Argagarg	3	1	33%
Vendetta	2	1	50%
Gloria	        2	1	50%
Valerie	        1	0	0%
Setsuki	        1	0	0%

By win rate:

Character	Games	W	Win %
Midori	        3	3	100%
Onimaru	        3	3	100%
Persephone	5	3	60%
Troq	        21	12	57%
Grave	        16	9	56%
Bal-Bas-Beta	14	7	50%
Zane	        12	6	50%
Rook	        6	3	50%
Vendetta	2	1	50%
Gloria	        2	1	50%
Geiger	        15	7	47%
Menelker	3	1	33%
Argagarg	3	1	33%
Gwen	        4	1	25%
DeGrey   	9	2	22%
Valerie	        1	0	0%
Setsuki	        1	0	0%

*Mirror matches excluded: 4 Bal-Bas-Beta, 1 Midori, 1 Troq

Usual suspects near the top of games played with the major exception of Bal-Bas-Beta. If you include the mirror matches, he comes in second in games played behind only Troq.

Other surprises include underperforming top tiers like Geiger and DeGrey (both under 50%), and solid performances from low tiers like Midori, Onimaru, and Persephone (they top the leaderboard but with fewer games played).

Unfortunately, there are still three (!) outstanding week 3 matches, so it’s doubtful that I’m going to be able to update this on anywhere near a weekly basis. It might come in one big chunk near the end.

or just do it after # of matches get played, regardless of weeks

Interviews are also lagging behind too…

Lol, oops. Now it’s quoted for posterity.

So, when are match losses/DQs going to happen for players that are cronically missing deadlines?

3 Likes

I would have to drop a third of the field if I wanted to DQ players who were chronically missing deadlines. I would rather cancel the tournament than do that. Unfortunately, several players have made it clear that this tournament is not a priority for them, and since this may very well be the last Yomi-related thing I participate in, I would prefer that it take as long as it needs to happen.

Maybe I’m just being optimistic in thinking that given extra time, the matches will happen, but I think doling out forfeits gives these players even less incentive to play going forward.

If it’s not a priority for them, why make this harder for the rest of us who still give a damn? DQ’s say, “If you don’t want to play, don’t play. If you want to play, get playing.” They knew what they were signing up for, and how long it was going to take, there’s no excuse for this level of unsportsmanlike behavior.

At the very least, set a hard deadline for all game needing to be played by Dec 31st, as that would be when preliminary games should be done by.

I understand where you’re coming from, but the main reason I hate to issue DQs is because I don’t think a 12-person tournament littered with forfeits is ultimately worth much. Like, I ultimately don’t really care about the results of that tournament.

That said, I can’t control how much people want to participate, so issuing a hard deadline for getting matches in might be a good compromise. I would extend the deadline two more weeks to 1/14 if I did that.
