What's the Ugh about?

Biased judges.

I doubt that "biased judges" is implied in Smurph's comment. Or if it is, we shouldn't assume such things.

No one's happy about losing, and most of us feel we should have won any match that is reasonably close. But judges are generally pretty good, and ill recruited good ones for this tourney.

Biased? No. Delph's a friend of mine, and I don't think you've got anything against me.

I don't think the match was an anomaly. I've never lost a match before where the reasons for losing leave me absolutely befuddled. I actually don't think it was reasonably close at all (in response to Digi), which is why I think it's such an anomaly.

I'm not gonna make a public issue, since it's all said and done, but I'm just expressing my opinion.

Ugh.

So what the f*ck has been going on with this tourney? 🙂

That's a nutshell update. Delph made some recent posts with match results and current rosters.

Mathematically, anyone could still make or miss the playoffs. Realistically, fangirl and KFish are debating for pride and reputation at this point, and would need a lot to happen for them to make the dance. Otherwise, there's 5 teams fighting for 4 spots, lots of team changes, and equally as many fights over who should cost how many points. Fun times.

Charlotte and I are the early leaders, but there's lots of matches to go.

I was just trying to defend both you and the judging. Sorry things didn't go your way. Long tourney yet, though.

Meh. I don't really see our team missing the playoffs (not to be cocky, just honest), but the whole match irks me.

And I wasn't lashing out at you, sorry if it came across like that. I agree with your comment, just saying that I think this match was quite out of the ordinary.

You lost to vector's powers? Silly, I thought you lost to the weapons that paralyzed Juggernaut in one panel?

Good thing Juggernaut's not totally invulnerable though, so I can see your point.

😄

(There's more to that argument, but this is banter, not debate).

Well to be fair Charlotte has a better record in this tourney than anyone so there's no shame in losing to her.

She has more judge votes at the moment, yes. But if this were any major sport, you, id, and I would be tied for first, since our win percentage so far is 100%. A baseball team with a higher win % for example would be ahead of someone with more wins, but only because they had played more games.

If we were going by wins/losses, then yes. But if I understood correctly, playoff spots are being determined by the for/against numbers for judges, so technically we're "winning."

Semantics though, really. She's doing quite well, which was your point.

The less planning you do, and the more favored you are to win, the less you have to do to win a match. An ice blast shown to be no larger than a laser is carried by the winds into an absolute zero win. How the **** can you have wind at absolute zero temps when Wind itself is movement? And Absolute Zero is NO movement.

You're entitled to your opinion, but I'd stop if I were you fangirl. Such rants only make you look immature and unable to handle defeat. We've all experienced it.

It wasn't a rant. No more different than ugg or what ever cav posted. I just stated the obvious. Take Captain Cold's gun and red tornado's winds in the next tourney and turn the battle field into outerspace. You obviously think I care to win any more battles. I'm going for the least prep possible. That's how I lost. have a good night. And I'm not unable to handle defeat. Or don't you remember that I conceded to Charlotte that I'd messed up. yeah. right. Oh how we forget these things. Defeat doesn't bother me. I didn't care when you beat me. You actually had a plan and it was good.

I feel your pain.

I don't see the less planning = win thing.

I've lost all my matches because I get befuddled with insane prep. xD

Week 4 write-ups are due in a little over an hour. For those of you who haven't submitted them yet please do so ASAP. Thanks.

Arghh, where're we fighting this week?
