Nadeem, I hope you do realise that scripts can get fucked up with time passing by. When shit goes wrong, then shit goes wrong. Keep your cool about it, no point getting all emo about it.

Stormeus, I'd like an official confirmation about how the things will go.

Today's VW, are the results only official? Are they combined with the next VW results? Are they completely nullified and only next one counts?

Please explain this for all of us, it'd be much appreciated.

Agreed with the above, except for one little tidbit:

Or, as Kessu has suggested, we could play again for fun that is, and for pure fun, without any pressure for either team to count points.

The entire point of ViceWar to have 24 hours of entertainment. This isn't a competitive event; individual stats don't really count for anything other than a cool little keepsake after a good round, and the only thing that anyone gets by winning as a team is rightfully earned bragging rights. There should still be points counted for the second round, especially considering that without them, it's not really so much Vice War as it is a generic TDM mode.

EDIT:

Stormeus, I'd like an official confirmation about how the things will go.

Today's VW, are the results only official? Are they combined with the next VW results? Are they completely nullified and only next one counts?

All I can say for sure is that these results will not be completely nullified. Whether they will be combined with the next round's results or kept separately has yet to be determined.

But tell me one thing. Why these results should be erased? Both teams fought on equal conditions. Blue and Red both suffered that terrible crashes.
Otherwise, as Aki said, we spent time. Aren't our actions and our time deserve to accept the our victory?

Apologies for drawing everyone's attention again on the same point.

I hope that the following echoes the sentiments of everyone here, regardless of blue/red.

Many of us have to either work or study Monday-Fridays. Giving up an entire 24 hours is almost the equivalent of giving up the entire weekend. I also know that many people on the blue team (based on what I hear on Mumble) have been playing until the morning (U.S. time - but that is irrelevant since the event is a full 24 hours) and yes, we're all grumpy, sleep-deprived, and the only thing to get us going is a cocktail of caffeine, sugar, and various substances I shall not specify.

And not to mention, the weeks - that is around 20 days - of planning and preparing for this event.

@Stormeus, I hate to put the spotlight on you, but please consider the circumstances with complete objectivity. This is an issue, that has actually very little to do with the current scores, or the fact that blue is winning by 600 kills, or the poll results (didn't see the point of poll here fyi), etc. It is a matter of whether or not everyone's efforts here (red or blue) are acknowledged and legitimized.

This is the point, if you want to restart the event, both teams should have the actual points, because otherwise this could be seen as favoritism for the red team.

Not actually being a polack glitcher could probably help

The only way I would agree with this is to extend the event - i.e. pause the event and keep the current scores, and then continue the event for another round of 24 hours sometime in the near future.
This.

And if you were on the other side would it be favoritism to the blue team?

The crashes are not to blame for the red teams 700 kill deficit.  Both teams were affected by them equally.  Other than giving red a second chance, I don't see any other reasons why this event should be restarted.

No.
