There is nothing strange about this.

The reg opens two weeks in advance. Therefore people were registering early.

Due to the game not happening on the 16th, Guru pushed it a week later to start on the 23rd.

That made the game reg close becuz it wud be more than weeks weeks. It will re re open this weekend when the 2 weeks come into place.

You are new and did not know this. Most of us regulars that have been around for a long time knew this and know how things goes around here.

Here is the thread and the info that was said about this earlier.

I went ahead and opened the reg again now to make it less confusing but yes, ROYALKNIGHT is correct.
