Candidates Thread

I have messaged a few candidates about playing, but I have some bad news. I will have to postpone all challenges until a later date, including my scheduled match with blitzbullet. I apologize for the inconvenience.
Congrats @TwelveTeen and comiserations @blitzbullet ... TT was too good today.

Do please let us know on the forum in future when your matches are. I streamed it live, but missed the first few games because it came as a surprise.

The record won't continue forever but every match has been live streamed so far.
Guys I was hoping the tension involving my inclusion in this event would have died down by now but it seems like there is still some disagreement over this wild card. I previously stated I didn't want to play if there were any objections but I was encouraged to stick it out so I complied. It is just not enjoyable at all with this tension, especially with kids , work and since my girlfriend would also like me to not play much I have to kind of play when I can and setting a scheduled time is difficult. If fumitoks would agree to play his matches I think it is more fair for him to be in the tournament than me since he earned it. If it is okay with FischyVischy and fumitoks will rejoin the tournament I would prefer to forfeit the rest of my matches. Please let me know if that is acceptable FischyVischy. I want to support the tournament and zh as much as I can but at this time I think if fumitoks would rejoin the tournament and I will try to stream/comment I think it is best for everyone. If you disagree I would certainly honor my commitment and finish my matches as quickly as possible.
