I was then told that TSI and a bunch others came on at an earlier time then our 10 or so players from XYZ fleets and did their own thing?

Who dropped the ball? We came expecting to take part in something that took HOURS of tedious TS conversations only to be told it'd fallen through. Why can no group or individual manage even the most simple tournament in this community without in-fighting or sloppy organization to foil it at the final hurdle?

Do I sound alittle annoyed about it? Yeah I am from reading back, but I think I and anyone else who took the time to put a build together have reason to be.

TSI was there, but no other full group showed up at that time or during the following hour.

That's very interesting, how did 10 or so people from 3 or 4 different fleets get a different time to you?

Anyway, at 20:00 CET there was nothing even close to the 8 teams that had signed up. So we got the mixed team matches instead of actual 5v5 tournament premade games.
