You're basically saying if someone improves during the duration of a tournament they deserve to be bumped out of winning because you don't want to put the work in and try. |

if you want it, you'll fight for it. That year, I made KrazyKitsune seven different isolation files for the semi-final round, Gargoyle. That dedication to playing songs over and over and over again until getting the desired score is something people should try to attain. (p.s. hi Kayla: not much work to do at the moment so Ted told me to just browse around lol) |

And who said I'm not trying? As far as I know I've nailed all of my D1 songs only to get rekt on stuff that's out of my skill range..but yeah, that's just me definitely being too lazy to try.

As per your second half let me refresh you as to what your last post said. Quote:
I've told this story many times but I'll tell it again. 5th official I was put in D2 with D1 scores. Instead of complaining about it when I found out I practiced, and worked at it. I had a round where I played a song 1000 times just to advance to the next round. There were people way beyond my skill and I managed to get up to 13th before my computer cable shit out on me and I couldn't get a new one before the new round ended. I think I could've pushed my way into top 3 had that not happened. You've had a pretty poor attitude about a lot of things around the site in general. I don't want it in this thread anymore. You can either keep playing or you can drop that's your choice. |

It makes complete sense in your mind to keep him in a division of others who clearly aren't D2? I thought this was a division + not division - Oh and I never accused him of sandbagging..just being poorly placed.

Re: Psychoangel691's One Division Higher Tourney
If he's found D2 in Round 4 on a 6 rounds tournament, it makes little sense to "just move him up" at this point. That may have been a different story on Round 1. You can't really prove that he was D2 before Round 1 started. If you could, you should have tried to do something about it back then. The best thing to do for you right now would be to try to figure how to get better scores for yourself. I agree that it may be frustrating, but this is a normal situation for tournaments. Now that you know he's that good, you have to find a way to cut goods or figure out patterns. Hope that helps.

You haven't been around the site long enough and it clearly shows. Go do some research of old officials and other tournaments. I've been hosting tournaments since 2009 and the number of them I have done is more than I can even remember. Last edited by psychoangel691; 09-25-2014 at 10:08 AM.. |

I'm not going to remove you, you earned your place by practicing and improving. For some reason some people just can't understand that concept. No worries, you just keep playing. |

Re: Psychoangel691's One Division Higher Tourney
I think part of Red's feelings stem from the fact that he's in D1. Not too long ago, before I stopped playing FFR for like 6 months or something, I was a consummate D1 noob. I played in the 6th official in D1 and got a blackflag on a AAA or die round, and got pretty frustrated. Then later I participated in the live mp tournament, and this is the part that really killed me.
It was a bracket style tournament with best of three wins and a loser's bracket. I beat a few people with not much difficulty, until I battled MKIIPro. He was way outta my league, and I just barely won one of the rounds (which still means I lost). In the end, I cleared out the whole loser's bracket, and played MKIIPro again in the finals. The second fight wasn't much different, and notably one of his picks was {Rose}. If I recall correctly he got an FC, which is a feat I only just recently was able to accomplish. Ever since then, it's been my goal to get better than him, to pay him back for his bs, and I've had to move to D2 to do it. The tenth official is my chance to get revenge. tl;dr D1 has weird skill level issues. Once you get some perspective, you'll see it doesn't really matter that much. You can bet I don't think about being better than all the people in D1, or about all the people better than me in D3. You just have to find someone a little better than you, and do everything you can to best them. The divisions are just an arbitrary but convenient way to get similarly skilled people together. If a division has failed you in this respect, time to find another division. |
