[quote name='n8rockerasu']I apologize that I didn't message you to tell you that I wasn't sure when I could play. I was trying to wait in the hope that I would actually have something to tell you when I did respond. It should be noted that we're basically talking about a 24 hour period here (your original post in the thread was on Friday night...and I didn't see it until the next morning). You asked about the match 3 times in 14 hours (thread post, CAG PM, XBL message)...and yeah, unfortunately, I didn't have anything to tell you and I was busy, so I didn't respond right away. You should even be able to recognize that what I finally sent you was still fairly vague. I really didn't want to be so non-specific, but it was the best I could do.
Are you seriously suggesting that it's ok for you to be busy with a Kings viewing party and a friend sleeping over, but it's not ok for me to be busy with marital obligations or taking care of another human life? When you've got a kid running around screaming and a wife asking you questions and wanting your help with stuff, responding to PM's isn't even a thought. Even when I'm on my Xbox, I'm not always there. I leave my console idle so much now because I'll start to play and than have to go do something...then 2 hours later, I get to sit back down again. Until you know what that's like, you know nothing about what "not having time" means (let alone, how it applies to my life).
I wasn't even going to say anything about it because it's not like we missed a deadline or anything...and like I said, it was a holiday weekend. But if you're going to call me out on it with stuff like "much to my dismay"...as though we both weren't busy, I might as well explain myself.[/QUOTE]
Again, the PM was sent Saturday morning (Pacific). I was hoping to schedule something before UFC. I wasn't busy that day, although I was busy Sunday like you said. My "much to my dismay" post was made Saturday night after seeing that you were on CAG, making posts, even replying to one of my posts in another thread. That's what got me.
I understand you're busy with wife and baby. I've lived with girls who had very young kids and helped take care of them, so I can relate on some level. But I've explained my reasons as to why my initial post about it was made.
I hope you understand now where I was coming from. If not, I'm sure we can talk it out. We usually do. But hey, it seems that we've got some of the other guys interested in our match! And that match will take place at 6 P.M. Pacific tonight.
