Ya we had no intention of playing this tournament, we had members busy this weekend. I signed up our team for esports before there was any announcement of this event as far as I know. I got an alert on the website but it did not give me a push notification to my phone, which was in my car anyways. Sorry for forfeiting and being seeded. I guess there was a misunderstanding on my part about creating a team for the eshl season auto entering us for this event. Who do we contact in the future if we dont intend to play any of these weekend events? @Tris10
