Regarding Replacement Partners

[Christoph]

The risk exists that a partner may bail out before a round for various reasons. Should this happen, the remaining team member may seek out a replacement partner, with the following restrictions: a partner can only be replaced once during the ToC, a replacement may not be brought in after the second round, a replacement must be found before the end of the first week in the round, and the original partner must have either made a public statement withdrawing or the remaining team member must have ten days or more without contact.

I would like to notify the judges of a change to the team "Matheson Twins" - I have had no contact with Sebastian for well over ten days, and have been forced, due to his inactivity both on here and on IRC and MSN, to choose a new partner.

The new member of the team is Miehm, using the character of the same name.

I would like to announce the official endings of teams Awesome and Zetsumei. It has been made exceedingly clear to both Qaron and I that our respective partners do not intend to return (at least thirteen days without contact), and therefore we would like to form our own team- Pride and Glory.

[Christoph]

I'm sorry for not making things clearer in my PM; you didn't need to wait for approval, as the thread was merely there for notification purposes. Thus, your new team is, in fact approved. Go forth and have fun!

[Atle]

Thank you, Christoph. I was unwilling to simply go ahead with the assumption that the new team was alright.

Team: The Whole Glory
Members: Shadowed, Logopolis

Logopolis has dropped out. My opponents this round have agreed to a variation on the rules to let me finish the round solo, as approved by Christoph. If I make it to the next round, NightCast will be replacing Logopolis.
