I messaged you and stated that the game was not drawn, and still ongoing. There is the assumption that you would have seen the clocks still running unless there was an interface bug here. Whether is was an engine problem or an interface problem doesn't matter. The server result _is_ what matters. >4.- Arena (debug window) and Fafis put in their log draw by mutual agrement. Then I am sure this happened due to an interface bug. >5.- 10 min later , TD says that Fafis lost on time. Yes I informed you of the server result. >Some people said in a bad way that i'll be in a black list for leave the >tourney, i think, i said in a very polite way to td that i was leaving out the >tourney, and i made appologies to all people in cct7. You won't be black listed for anything. You stated your reasons, made your apologies to the rest of the participants and I, and left. As I stated in my message to you, this was not a personal attack on you, or your program. I made the decision based on what I saw, what I said, and the server result. Ultimately that is what I have to do. I am the TD, and I have to make the tough calls, and certainly this was very difficult. I asked you politely to stay. I really wanted you to. There are times in sports where a call will go against you, and you have to grin and bare it. I am sorry for all that happened, and I honestly hope I get to talk to you again Rafael. Peter
