Just to be on the safe side, I'll also PM this:
"Ah, if we get until Friday...chkn, pick a random reasonable time on Thursday. I'll be back home by then. Don't forget this time, okay?"
Chicken's never forget, and any time after 6:30 pm my time is a good time for me on thursday. Just pm me on here when youre free.
Taking the time zone comparison chart again;
Florida - Netherlands
UTC-4 - UTC+2
8:00 = 14:00
9:00 = 15:00
10:00 = 16:00
11:00 = 17:00
12:00 = 18:00
13:00 = 19:00
14:00 = 20:00
15:00 = 21:00
16:00 = 22:00
17:00 = 23:00
18:00 = 0:00
18:30 your time is 0:30 my time. Although I personally don't have a problem with that, my dad and younger brother do. I live with my dad, in the same room as my younger brother, so I can't play, as my dad will complain I should go to sleep and my younger brother will complain I should stop playing.
You absolutely can't play before 6:30 pm?
Well I cant really play at work. And you do realize the rediculous amount that this will lag since you live so far.
I know, I've played against Americans before. So, how about Friday after 2 pm your time then?
yeah thats alright.
Very well. Then we'll play this Friday, at 3 PM your time. (9 PM my time.)

He had plenty of time to read the message and respond if he didn't agree. He didn't respond, so I assumed we had settled on a time we could both play. It's 9:30 PM my time right now.
I already confirmed with other people that 9 PM my time is indeed 3 PM in Florida, so it was not a time conversion problem.
He just doesn't show up. I even installed AIM to contact the *******, but even there he's offline.
Here on Smashboards he went offline right (3 minutes) before I sent him a PM regarding the match (my neutral strike out choices).
I've done everything I can this time, but this time he just totally ****ed up.
Not only that, but on the friend roster he's still listed as 'Awaiting Registration', even though I added him hours ago. If I recall correctly, he will show up as 'Offline' minutes/seconds after he has also added me to his friend roster. In other words, chckn hasn't even added me to his friend roster - so it isn't possible he was confused and thought we'd play at 8 PM either (also, he would probably have sent PMs if that was the case).
Long story short, Chckn simply DID NOT SHOW UP AT THE APPOINTED TIME. I've waited since 9 PM, and it's currently 9:40 PM, and there's still no sign of him. I'm sick of waiting, as he'll probably not show up at all.
I don't think it would be fair if I didn't get a chance to advance to the next round because Chkcn doesn't show up. Please let me win this game by default.
To Chckn; make sure you show up at the appointed time next time, dammit. Also, I still want to play against you sometime to see if I would have lost this first round if you DID show up. I'm still quite inexperienced in SSBB, so I was likely to have been eliminated in the first round.
EDIT: Kind of important, timestamp on that last PM is 08-12-2008, 09:29 PM. That's three days ago, so he had plenty of time to respond.
