FFR Quidditch Tournament - Page 96

**MeaCulpa** · 08-28-2007, 11:55 AM

In previous rounds, u84 was inactive for a few days, but came back a few hours before the Seeker song was released. I didn't want to ask for a sub before last night because I figured he might have come online, as he's done before.

Anyway, gg everyone, and thanks again to the three hosts for one of the most unique tournaments I've seen. All that planning and updating and such was well worth it, as the 1900 posts in this thread prove.

Yeah...it was a good tourney, but the bs call at the end ruined it a bit...

We have a right to complain when bs like what happened here came into play in the tournament. If you don't agree and have no counter-arguments besides the, "stop complaining blah blah blah", then I suggest you just be quiet.

Hey HufflePuff, did you guys realize that just about everything that has come up in this tournament you've all b*tched and moaned over? Yeah. It's annoying as hell.

As for the subbing in the final rounds, what the hell did you expect us to do? u84 went AWOL with account issues, (etc, etc) and left no sign of his return for the finals. I realize that you all want to complain that the sub was a beast at FFR, but even if we had picked someone who was terrible they could have just submitted something for points. At the rate things were going, Slytherin would have still won by quite a margin. If you completely disregarded the Seekers, the way the round was going was quite clear. With three Chaser AAA's, a keeper AAA, etc. the points that Slytherin had were getting near perfect. HufflePuff on the other hand... yeah, no. There was no indication that the score difference would change drastically, so seriously... stop making mountains out of molehills. Take a note out of ruferddude's book and just get over it.

AK_Parker · 08-28-2007, 06:07 PM

Actually, hoochan was going to submit, same with others, and u84, I saw him on and you got a sub? LOL, nice try shadowswordsman, but we got cheated =)

Go to his profile. It clearly shows the latest activity for u84 was August 21st (8/21/07). That was a week ago. You saw him on? Yeah. Sure. Stop making excuses and whining about bing "cheated." Even with those other submissions you would have been behind. I don't remember who did it, but somebody calculated the scores of if every non-submitter on your team got an AAA (which is rather unlikely based on previous round scores) and there would be over 40 points of a gap still, and that is the BEST case scenario.

zim311 · 08-28-2007, 06:25 PM

*yawns* whatever. you're just determined to be...i cant even think of a word for this...

First, what BS happened? If jwcgator went missing for a couple of days (not saying he would but just for an example), then you're are saying that you wouldn't get a substitute?

Second, I do have a counter arguement. My counter arguement is: THERE WAS NO BS! Someone was gone for a couple days, he got subbed, we lost big deal. Let's just say that there was no "BS" happening. We would have lost. Milkchan already explained it but you were probably to busy b*tching to read his post. We were down like 120 points BEFORE danceguy117 submitted.

You know it's getting pretty bad when your own teammate is annoyed by it. XD Sorry if you guys disagree with my point of view, but this is the way I see it. Sorry for disagreeing with your opinion, I'm just trying to keep the negativity to a low because, guess what guys:
It's is a game. You can't win every game you play. Take the losses when they come. You can't be perfect.

It looks like he did better than I did anyway, so it's probably better for the team that you let his score count instead of mine. It was easy enough to play the song a few times, and I got a new personal best out of it, so I still got something out of it.

**jwcgator** · 08-28-2007, 07:27 PM

My beef isn't really the fact that they sub'd but the fact that they instantly went for the AAA machine instead of the designated seeker sub.

again, you couldve switched him out earlier, but you chose to wait until the finals. i ask why?

we have discussed this and your statistics are only valid if you were saying that NO ONE on our team could improve which is not true in the least sense

once again, they couldve switched him out rounds ago WHEN HE WASNT THERE TO SUBMIT. KEYWORD-ROUNDS AGO

we were down by a lot, yes, but also, a couple key people were not there to submit ANYTHING at all so we coulve easily gained points from that. also, from the looks of it, it seemed as though a lot of people did not give their best effort

negativity is part of life, "deal with it" as you would say

once again, i would not have bitched if a last minute subbing did not take place, which, imo, is complete bs

it's like some major football team paying loads of money (in this case it was free) for a last minute trade right before the superbowl and getting some even greater players

would you not agree that that is bs? (if i recall correctly, i think that theres a trade cut off after a certain date, tell me if im wrong though)

manti?

DrawingJunkie · 08-28-2007, 07:37 PM

Wait.

WAIT.

It's over? I missed everything?

jugglinguy · 08-28-2007, 07:45 PM

ya pretty much.

Sorry for going to someone who's active as a sub huffle, from now on I'll pick inactive subs so you guys can have a slight chance of winning!(if even that)

**jwcgator** · 08-28-2007, 07:55 PM

Manti isn't inactive, and thanks for telling the future ur real good at that

zim311 · 08-28-2007, 08:00 PM

ugh. who wants to join my tourney if i put one up, cause im thinking about it.

Yeah, I can see your point but I'm pretty sure manti would have most likely got the AAA. Not sure though but I think he is capable of it.

I rest my case. Even I complained a little until shadowswordsman informed me that they had the highest score for two out of the three rounds. They deserved the bye.

We could have improved, yes. But not by 120 points. Maybe like 50 absolute tops. Also milkchan's senario did involve three (if not all) of our chasers AAAing and drawingjunkie getting the lowest score for his category. He made it out so that we would have the best possible senario. We still would have lost

Quote:

I understand that negativity is natural. But the only negative stuff I see is the fact that people won't take a loss. They just keep looking for excuses like: "BS" or "I got cheated". If they would have accepted the loss then there would be no negativity. Be mad that you lost for a while, but then you should accept it move on. Sorry that this whole event got blown out of proportion.

zim311 · 08-28-2007, 08:09 PM

you're the one looking for excuses. i just dont get why the hell you're so particular on making people "Deal with it". i will not, by hell, "Deal with it". end of story.
