That will be all, Sincerely, Shortboy!
Holyyyyy ****.

Have you ever heard of a ****ing period? Jesus Christ, do they just not teach grammar in school anymore, or do you just not know anything?

Sorry if I seem a little brash, but your post was pretty much out of line and unnecessary. No one is ridiculing Brian as far as I can tell.

What people are trying to say is that though he feels he has been misplaced in Intermediate, he does not belong in Beginner because he would probably win that division, or at least do very, very well just by his own innate ability, not by how much he has improved over the course of the tournament.

People are always under the misconception that they are going to be the best in the division and that their skill level should be the borderline between the next division and the lower one. This is not correct.

I understand it's natural to be competitive, and we all want to win, but if you've been placed in a higher division and Phynx doesn't move you, then you need to deal with it. Play in the division, or just don't submit. I got put in Expert for the Official Tournament when I had less than a dozen Challenging AAAs. I was miffed, but I just didn't submit. No big deal in all honesty.

All judgment lies in the hands of the tournament creator, so what he says is final. You guys seem to think that incessant nagging and bitching will get you your way, and I don't think y'all see that it won't. At this point, people can't be switching divisions because many people have submitted and the round is more than halfway over.

EDIT: It can't be said any better than this:

I was referring to passivegirl earlier and I don't think it matters whether she took 5 or 50 attempts to AAA them, when I wouldn't be able to AAA most of those songs if I tried 1,000 times.
Misplacement goes both ways. Sometimes you get lucky, and sometimes you get the shaft.
