what happened?

My phone/adsl company "forgot" to reconnect my line after a maintenance in the weekend. I was out of town in the weekend and came back yesterday. I asked for the phone company support to fix it and they showed up this morning. I tried to post it from a lan house, but the place opened 9am (8am US). I DID chop, and in time. Just didn´t have a fucking computer connected to the internet to post it. And no, I couldn´t use hell´s computer. He lives in another town during the week, 2 hours from the capital.

That totally sucks arc. My sympathies on all the trouble. Stupid phone company. Don't they realize what they screwed up here?!?

You've got my support on avoiding a ban in the next H2H.


Now show us the chop you would have submitted!

Which means that the first bracket of 96 was pretty much good to go and would have saved lots of aggravation.

Hey! Arc's opponent didn't show either. So if Arc posts his pic before his opponent then he could still advance with the win and not screw the brackets up. Same for the other two double-no's!

Post it in the forum with a poll about letting you through to the next round Arc!

Now show us the chop you would have submitted!

I contacted Proc tofu. I sent the image to billtv, once I didn´t have Procs email. Not sure what he´ll decide though. Not that my opponent will show up anyway, but I just rather wait till Proc reply my PM so i can post it or not.

This sucks. Part of the reason I join the H2H is to see all great chops, and now most of the great choppers are MIA. There are a couple of really great ones though that blew me completely away... I hope the next round is better though...
