It's supposed to be an ill-fitting latex glove. I was considering colouring this (which would have made that clearer) but I thought black and white was more striking (which means I couldn't be arsed).

Heyup. Piggyoioi's 72 hour deadline ends this afternoon, I have messaged them to let us know if they're able to get a return up or maybe ask for an extension, so just waiting on that now. They have been active on here as late as yesterday though so here's hoping! I don't think my hokey drawing of David Attenborough should be enough for me to go through by default.

I only just got the BBC19 thing, sign me up for dingus duty.

Cheers.

As far as going through by default goes, it is fine by me, it's just the way it goes sometimes. However, if you guys both wanted to, I wouldn't have a problem with you and Plankton playing a match if both your opponents do withdraw. I wouldn't make you do it though, because you've both already served once and I wouldn't want to force one of you to play an additional shot.

For the time being, I'll give Piggyoioi a 24-hour extension to at least get in touch, but if that passes we'll end this particular match.

I wouldn't mind taking the option of starting a fresh round if Plankton was also fine with that, but I'm also aware that this would further delay the start of round 2 which might be of some annoyance to the other players. Let's see what happens today :)

Or just continue the match from the two shots you and Plankton have already played, as it seems a shame to 'waste' them. Could be interesting.

Could have each replying to the other's serve and use those four shots maybe.

Brilliant idea!

Yep. Let's see where we are tomorrow, but I think that's a great solution.

Hey Alan, sorry mate. I only got my home internet back after a 3 day connection loss. after which I found out I lost my job and promptly got fucked and still dealing with the residual hangover.

No hard feelings I hope. I loved your entry though!

Bloody hell, sorry to hear that. I hope your luck improves.

Going out in the first round of Wimblewrong will surely finish him off.

Sorry to hear that Piggyoioi, thanks for getting back to us.


I'll see about setting up this other match later on after the other deadline has passed.

im happy to play you nags, - either with what weve done so far or fresh shots like

Honestly, I'd be happy for a bit of breather after the first round, so if you both wanted to play a fresh match, that would be fine with me.

PlanktonSideburns

im happy however it goes, just let us know -

I'll flip a coin if alan is happy to play a fresh match. We'll just wait for him to let us know his preference and then we can get going with it.

Crikey O'Riley. I'm very sorry to hear this, and I hope you're doing okay. Absolutely no hard feelings of course, do what you gotta do and I hope you feel better soon.

Coin is fine by me also, I'm happy to start a fresh round and give you a bit of a break haha. Flip away, baby.
