Yes you had a tournament where the winners were supposed to get prizes. No I have not forgotten. Yes, I fully intend to honour that agreement. Long story short, a few days before the tournament start date, the site had a horrible failure and the so-called redundancy that was touted by the hosting company didn't do jack squat, thus everything had to be rebuilt. THat much you probably have figured out. Sadly between then and now Seibs has has a long string of issues, family-, work- and life-related, that has prevented him from focusing on the site; specifically the portal I use to deal with the database. I've been reminding him to get it back up for me, so with luck in the next few weeks that'll happen.
tl:dr version. Prizes aren't forgotten. Tbey'll be here when I get access back.

Honest question. Does that include mine from SPL round 2?

No problem, just wondered since it went fubar.
I'm just happy I can post on the boards again.

To be honest, in future tournies, I'm jut not gonna bother with prizes. This is no slight on Mkall, it's just clear that the chance of being able to deliver is so small that its not worth the pixels it's typed on. I cant remember why previous attempts have failed (although in at least one situation, it was my fault for leaving to all too late), but the simple fact that Ryan clearly doesn't give a flying crap about the game (why else would he *still* not have given Mkall back his access?)...
Don't worry though, I still hope to run tournies in the future.
