Not official yet since I just glanced at the spreadsheet but seem to me we have our first drop out as well. It will be official on Sunday when I am making tables. Kara.aa1 failed to submit and it is his third strike which means he is out. All his games will be set to 3:0 for his opponents.
All Kara.aa1's games will be 3-0 expect the one in the current round against russeras.
Kara.aa1 and russeras give zero point each in the current round, as russeras failed to submit the answers before the deadline. Am I right? Correct me if I am wrong, please.
I just came here to write about this. When I wrote before I didn't catch that russeras plays against Kara.aa1 this round. In short he has been incredibly lucky. All this is in the OP, or should be, but I will repeat it here.
Penalty for late submission
- auto loss 3:0
-1 point penalty
- reduced final rewards (details in OP)
- kicked out of LMS
- not playing for free bet
Now since Kara.aa1 is out we are assigning all his games as 3:0 since it is easier to do in our software than to void them. That effectively means his game didn't happen and russeras was in fact free this round. That leaves just following penalties for him:
- kicked out of LMS
- not playing for free bet
and since he is already out of LMS, he got off super lightly and just lost a chance for free bet this round. This doesn't even count as missed deadline since he was "free", just didn't know it.
Hope it is clear

Situations like this are why we have a lot of rules. They are not needed mostly but then a lot of coincidences happen and you need to have every angle covered. That is also why we are adding to rules after every season.
@russeras
You got off super easy this time, I hope this was enough of a warning for you for future rounds. No need for apologies or anything. Rules are rules and we are sticking by them always.
