At this point, there's nothing we can do, it's too late. But he didn't earn it; he didn't have to battle like everyone else and he stole his prize from a more honest person. It's like dropping a major league baseball player into little league by accident, slamming the baseball down their twelve year old throats, and then winning MVP. That's my 52 cents. Turning your back on fairness and honesty will just make your little corner of the world a latrine, no matter what the circumstance. Community is what you make it ... Quote:

Re: 7th Official FFR Tournament ~predictions thread~
Either way to sum up this troll of an argument let the course of the tournament go through its flow. Worry about no one but yourself. If your not going to win and are butthurt well that sucks but you can't do nothing. This happens every year. At least Neomasterpie had the balls (and quite big balls they are) to AAA every song in the division rather than to borderline elimination every round.

And before you rant on about how it's not his fault, it does not ****ing matter whose fault it is, he should not have been that low. The rest of the division has to deal with him being there. It's not right. In my opinion, it's not right that he wins prizes from this either. I'm pretty sure with those scores he could have easily taken first in D3 even. If that were the case, prizes, feel free. This situation is just dumb though. Almost Oni, a score on Reality that rivals mine.... That's miles out of D1's league. Next year, feel free to dump me in D2 so I can get some prizes, I'll be sure not to say anything about it.

Re: 7th Official FFR Tournament ~predictions thread~
edit: Justin, you're saying that he should be the one punished for his placement. If anything, the people that placed him there should be due to their own stupidity.

This is what's wrong with society, including parts of the ffr community.
Goodnight everyone. |

Re: 7th Official FFR Tournament ~predictions thread~
No, I'm saying he should have said something. At this point, it's his fault just as much. But basically like the last page and a half of posts has discussed, honesty is nothing worthwhile to people anyway.

I also don't see the honesty issue here either. Neo AAA'd every song so far in the tournament, and is certainly not hiding his FFR skills from anyone. He may have not requested a bump, but he certainly wasn't trying to avoid being bumped. He shouldn't have had to anyway, his far superior stats should have been a huge signal to the tournament managers to alter his division. Maybe he figured if they want to keep him in D1, then why should he stop them? Also justin_ator for D2! I'll take D3 if it's open lol.

Re: 7th Official FFR Tournament ~predictions thread~
I honestly doubt he knew where he was going to be placed. Us StepMania people don't play FFR all that much and don't really know the levels/difficulties. If he was to be in a higher division, it's really not his problem.

Note to staff: Whoever did placements for this tournament should never do placements for another official tournament. Ever. Again.

Re: 7th Official FFR Tournament ~predictions thread~
In the scale of the whole tournament, one massive misplacement isn't that far-fetched of an concept out of this many people. Managing all of those people and doing checks throughout each week in my own time and checking ips/replays/levelranks/chat logs is no easy task. I invite anyone who wants to play a part in placements to speak up and contact me when the next tournament is advertised.
On another note, the forum isn't the place to complain and bitch about placements. You can technically be removed from the tournament for doing so (if you read the tourney OP). If you have an issue, PM me about it. I have responded to countless nmp PMs this week alone, so it isn't like it is such an impossible task. The problem at this end of the tournament is that whether he is bumped/not bumped/removed a few people (or more) will be adversely affected and will nopt be happy. There is no win-win in this scenario and at this point all I can say is that any account I could connect with nmp pre-tourn had no or worse stats than he possesses. In the event that he is harbouring another FFR account that has better stats, somebody step forward and pass it onto me. From what I can tell he is an sm player, steps somewhat and managed to sit idle in a lower division until it was too late when he was found out. Until the time in which users can compose themselves in a manner that doesn't involve 100% bitch posts about how shit wasn't done properly and how they obviously have far superior knowledge and organisational skills, this thread will stay locked for the moment. Just know that investigations on players are still taking place and that I am doing everything in my power to ensure that the tournament continues to run smoothly. |
