Jappert and me faced each others in round 1 of the first bracket that was made 10+ minutes before the second one was up. I won fairly convincingly 1-0 there and we were about to start the second when new bracket came up 10.

We got each other in round three of the second bracket.
Since it is a new bracket the 3 games should be played but the problem lies in sportsmanship ie honor ie whats the right thing to do considering we already played one game we solved it thus.

[11:14:25] Rastafla [»]  Jappert: Yeah i would think so, it is a new bracket after all
[11:14:26] Jappert [»] Rastafla: same
[11:14:33] Jappert [»] Rastafla: aye, sorry about that
[11:14:44] Rastafla [»] Jappert: Shit happens when TOs aren't communicating
[11:15:03] Rastafla [»] Jappert: The fairest thing i could think of for the both of us was to redo the first game
[11:15:14] Jappert [»] Rastafla: ye agreed
[11:15:23] Rastafla [»] Jappert: If i took the win, unfair to you, if we did completely new decks unfair to me

So we picked the exact decks we had in the game from the initial bracket. This time Jappert won that since i didnt draw a flying weapon in time to make it count. Fair and square.

This situation will probably don't show up again but i think this approach is the best. Its fair to both players this way. The winning deck will still have the presumed better deck for at least 1 game and the losing will still be entitled to the three chances which the rules state.

Next time don't screw the bracket(s) up TOs.

To clarify: We played 4 games in total.
First bracket (1-0) to Rastafla
Second Bracket 2-1 to Jappert. (1-0) (1-1) (2-1)

Good matches Calin!

It's good enough :p  Grats on the win. (I think every single time I've played in a tournament, I've lost to the eventual winner, except once)  Obviously, beating me is the key to winning it all.

I think that the top players made a darkness deck.

I don't think I saw any darkness cards this tournament...
