Sent out to those I have not recieved from. As a token to past fail. Think one elite challenges me with correct time after my fail. Thanks sir/lady!

Yes, now that we're in a bit of a rush, it's ok to send challenges even though you're not responsible for doing so (in a given match).

But it's of course voluntary, because you will lose token that you're not required to use. But sometimes it can be very good thing to send challenge to speed up organizing process, if you have tokens so spare. Now that we don't have any new managers on Season 5, it won't cause so big confusion (to receive challenge from someone they're not supposed to receive a challenge from).

Sir it would be - I don't think we have any ladies participating to HGL, do we? :)

I have 13 matches arranged, I did my part with challenges, if I don't receive challenges in a couple of days, I'll challenge the rest myself.

Well, I am proud of my decision not to break my HG status just to promote. I lost the finals, but because I went 21-1 and had the second-best point differential of all Australian Div III teams...I'm promoting to Div II. :D

I probably won't win many games, but the promotion bonus, bigger economy and the arena boost will all make my efforts worth it.

Meanwhile...

...the Homegrown Kings continue to train!

You should be, that's the real HG(L) spirit!
It all tastes so much sweeter, when you have taken the hard path and succeed.

Thank you for info, it's good to hear from multiple managers where we stand currently.

Now that people have started creating (and partly filling) their own box score posts for Season 5, that'll also help us to see the progress.

The match inspection process though hasn't been started, and if someone wants to take part of that (and think that they're very careful/precise person and know how to do it correctly), they can let me know. We could for instance do certain RS Rounds per manager.
But it's possible for me to handle that myself as well, it's just good to know beforehand what's the case.

As I mentioned though, it's arduous process that requires concentration and there's zero room for error, so everybody please only lift your hand if you think you can handle (part of) that Season 5 match inspection process with precision. :)

Same with me - as we're bit late this time, 24h stretch was a very much uninvited guest for most of us.

Especially now that we are pressed in time, I don't mind if someone else sends correct PU match challenge (other than person responsible of doing so in the first place), as long as all match details are correct.

Remember, match time is the same time that you see on your BB schedule our match (vs. Wagner College) being played at. This same advice goes with all HGL managers.
For me it shows 15.30 for Season 5, and for you for instance it should show as being played 14.30 (02.30PM) because France's time zone is one hour behind Finland.

((Im not sure if BB would allow any "advertising" of websites, but one more way to ensure correct match time would be to use reliable online time converter website to find out what's the time difference between my and your time zone. However, we are on safer waters I believe, if everyone just checks out their BB schedule to see what's the time they are playing against my team (Wagner College)).
