Fly, PhilMan! Fly to NYC as fast as you can! :D

If you're indeed the final... finalist, then per my spreadsheet, the actual cutoff was twelve positions below where I marked it at a 15.745.

Has it been confirmed who the fourth Canadian finalist is? I think they are still looking for someone to fill the spot, as I just checked my email and saw that I got an invite last night (I have no interest in going however). They must be a bit desperate considering I'm fairly far down the list at 12th in the country, and it's really last minute since the email says I'd have to leave for NYC tomorrow :crazy: Hopefully someone picks up the spot.

Wow....
 
That's what happens when you don't look at your email -_- wow. Common fellow Canucks, that's what happens if you don't have GTPlanet and keep up on what's happening. Cause you never know, Canada might not be in it next year. And this isn't helping us stay in it if we can't even have all of us going, and Then I might not have my chance either. And regret not going this year, even though that's my decision.

also, that's what happens when @LLOYDZELITE69 decides not to go lol (You can tell I'm bored by trolling around GTP)

if you want that is, might be worth emailing/calling them and seeing if you can change your mind.

No, it's way to late for myself now. No way I could make it. I'm just disappointment in my fellow Canadians :( Haha

I feel bad for the guy who's trying to find the last Canadian! :lol:
 
I just hope this doesn't make them regret putting Canada in, and we might not be in it next year :nervous: Lol

Wow that's crazy! :crazy:

I don't know how they proceed ,but I never got any email from them (even though I can't go).

I honestly think that the Canadian GTA would've been much more successful if Quebec didn't have those stupid laws. Oh well.

Especially if we could go to Montreal instead of Silverstone.
 
They can run the tournament with 31 players if need be. They did it last year after one contestant never showed up to NYC.

If that's the case though, I mostly feel bad for the next Canadian in line who did want to go...
 
Damn, so many cool Canadians on GTP deciding to not go, or can't. They should've been in from the start, seems a bit like too little too late.

I just heard about this...what ever happened to that guy?
 
WELLLLLLLLLLLLL we wouldnt have this problem if they let certain people go.
 
dgaf95integra
We never ended up finding Out what happen he just never showed up lol
Click to expand...

Was he not active on the forums? Like...months later he never resurfaced? Is he alive?!
 
I hope they fill the position. It caused a lot of problems last year including an impromptu elimination decision. Epic fail by several people, including US participants. I just cannot see how people are this disorganized/lazy.
