I vaguely remember a character named Frank or something applying. However, it didn't end up on the final roster. We kept modifying our roster based on who showed up in teamspeak, and you weren't in it, so you probly got dropped in the end. I wanted to just flat out accept everybody that applied since I don't think we had less than 50 applicants, but that comes with potential problems and leadership disagreed with that course of action.
When a battle begins, it will stay on the battle list till it's over. Then the corresponding server (NA 3 in this case) will change from duel to a strat battle. This battle ended in under 3 minutes, so it's possible you came around late.
