It was the first game actually. I checked the IRC chat history.
It's still controversial though, so I'd like to hear from both players involved on what we should do.Code:[13:32] Hatts> it's started [13:33] Hatts> eclipse goes first [13:33] Hatts> lol iClipse [13:33] Hatts> that is driving me crazy. [13:33] Commentary> surprise start for iClipse [13:33] Commentary> sacced a card [13:33] Hatts> lol [13:33] Hatts> bold move [13:33] iClipse> Sec, sis closed the tab I think [13:33] iClipse> So we'll have to recreate [13:34] Commentary> eek [13:34] Hatts> false start... [13:34] Commentary> good job it was so early [13:34] iClipse> too bad, had perfect hand [13:34] iClipse> and went first [13:34] iClipse> now I have neither :p

I didn't do this on purpose, only wanted to switch over to irc chat and say that the game's up. It was before the first match, the one i lost anyway, not the 2nd. Allowing iClipse to play another qualifier would be unfair towards the players there (he's good enough to win and let someone else feel cheated, isn't he?), so if anything go with the 2nd option. Or let iClipse advance instead of me, messing the thing up was my fault after all.

However much one kind of longs to see the actors in war outdo each other in cunning activity, finesse, and stratagem, still one has to admit that these qualities show themselves but little in history and have rarely been able to emerge from amongst the mass of relations and circumstances.
The reason for this is obvious enough: Strategy knows no other activity than the arrangement of combats with the measures which relate to it. It doesn't know, like ordinary life, actions that consist of mere words, i.e. expressions, declarations, etc. But these, which are inexpensive, are what the crafty one prefers to deceive with.
This sober truth is always felt through and through by the actor in war and therefore he ceases to fancy a game of shrewd agility. Necessity presses so hard into immediate action that there is no room left for it. In a word, the pieces on the strategical chessboard lack the mobility that is the element of stratagem and cunning. - CvC, On War
I won that first game, so I think it would be unfair for me to play again.

IMO, my two cents (though I have nothing to do with it other than as a participant in the same tourney, but just something to think about): If it was a game in which he lost, I'd support either remedy, and think both are decent.
I'd actually like to see a top 8 anyways, it's more fun, even if it does take a bit longer to organize, 1.28 won't be out for awhile, there's time. But that top 8 should be an separate from this issue.
If you had perfect draw and went first (as you did), and he closed the tab (as he did), then on subsequent remaking you /lost/ that game, I'd say remedy is needed. Since it was game 1 that was restarted, and then you won that game, I'd say no remedy was needed, sort of a no harm, no foul thing.
That aside, I still wouldn't mind a top 8 anyways.
In any case, I love our community. GDC being very fair, and then look at iClipse's post that I quoted, and Sisyphos' last sentence of his post:
Those two are model gentlemen. Good sportsmanship.Or let iClipse advance instead of me, messing the thing up was my fault after all.
Thanks guys.
No, I am going to leave it as top 4. The August League top 8 is dragging on due to timezone differences, so top 4 here makes more sense so we can get our winner sooner.
And, while the next update that has card changes could be a while coming out, the sooner this one is wrapped up, the sooner we can have another and hopefully involve iOS users from the outset.
p.s. I echo your comments on the good sportsmanship.
