[Unequal teams in this tournament?]

We have playoff 2nd round games going on with The United Knights. Round started on last thursday (11.2) and we did play 2 games. Games are 1-1 at the moment. After 2 games TUK players saying that no more games because they wanna go sleep and they also have early wake up in the morning. In the beginning we also asked that can we start 15 min later our games that we can play one warmup game before ECL but answer was no. Now i understand why.. OK but thats fine.. we took extra player to roster and we got warmup game.

- That's true. Some of us have to wake up between 05.00-06.00 for work and we agreed only two games with your GM's in our conversation before games, not more. We prepared to play 20.30cet like you asked and noticed next day you asked to start 20.50cet and that was too late for us.

Well do you have any idea who was our first opponent on friday during our training games? Well it was The United Knights. I thought that you guys had roster problem? seems like you don’t.. You guys were playing exactly with same roster than thursday against us?

Rules? Some kind of penalty for TUK? Aah no. Thats fine again.

- We asked 02/07 can you play 02/08 and you answered "We don't have players untill 02/10 (Wednesday)". We didn't complain when you played 02/09 EASHL against us (we can't see it in last games so us or you jumped after connection test). We cancelled our games early enough and knew 10min before our first game on Friday that we can play three games before we have to quit.

Then we said to TUK that can we play on sunday? Answer was ”It seems we have enough players on Tuesday but on Wednesday we have 6 for sure”. One funny thing also in this whole story is that 1 of TUK players is on a holiday and surprise coming back on wednesday.

- You answered to us we dont have players on Wednesday? How about Tuesday? You didn't answer. Rankaisija contacted me personally and tried to settle games for Thursday and I told you if you get 6 were ready to play on Wednesday and we did our best but we had connection problems like you did.

Well, we were supposed to play 3 games yesterday (17.2 wednesday). How about that yesterdays game? well you can watch that stream if you like so.

Game was good and lots of action, but I’m still wondering how did you.. everyone of your team did quit on same time when we had really good momentum at overtime? Answer was that goalies network disconnected? Rules saying that you should play until the next whistle? Funny thing, again..

- Do you guys really think we quit on purpose? How about youre pause in 1st games 1st period and suddenly your rw is gone? Our goalie disconnected and quitting before next whistle was our mistake and were sorry about that. We asked how you want continue and you answered "overtime continues".

And also we did play only one game. You guys said that no more games today because there is network problem at one of your players. Really? i personally don’t believe that. And why you didn’t change player? At least Lagezicarno were writing at our stream so there was one player available all the time. Or did you guys had early wake up again? Funny thing, AGAIN.

- Why we should quit if there wasn't a good reason? There was. Our rw lost connection to EA and PSN when 2nd games was loading and we noticed it immediately before 1st faceoff and we had to jump. He couldn't get back online and we didn't have another player who could play even Lage wrote in your stream chat. That's why we had quit, we were one short.

Tonight (thursday 18.2) we are playing 1 (MAX 2, if we can start in time) game(s). If TUK gets their roster together, don’t have early wake ups or don’t have network problems or don’t have any 1st line up players in canary islands??

- We get roster. Its up to you because your GM's wrote it's not sure can you get 6 tonight.

If this whole series continues after this night.. next gaming day will be on next week. Can we get also few extra days? we really have seriously problems with our lineup and things to do on a weekend.

I also heard that this is same problem.. every year with TUK.

Have to say that im really disappointed and believe me, i’m not the only one.

My opinion is that if we have rules then we really need to use them and those should be same to everybody.

Thanks and Sorry for this whole show.. its just wrong that everybody is waiting our series to be played.

- Well you're not the only one. Do you think we or other teams don't have problems with line-up? That's why we haven't agreed game times so good in this series. It is wrong that others have to wait but don't put all blame on us.

PS. I'm not sure did I answer all the issues. I hope my answers satisfies Aapon Taikasauva's members and the community. I know both teams have their own view about this case. I have sent these answers to ECL admins. Our only proofs are Twitch streams and our GM conversation in PSN chat with Aapo (I guess).
