Nice birthday present, starting a match with Digi. Not that I helped much this round at all. Meh.

Note: A happy birthday present would be all the judges deciding our team wins the match without reading Digi's posts 🙂

Happy Birthday, Blair. Time for your honorary spanking.

Better yet, just take the week off. Let Jr. whet his chops on a real opponent for a change ( 😉 ).

Its on Wed. And your mom already scheduled me in for the spanking 😉

(😛)

And I could, and I would have full faith in Jr. I've been letting him run things mostly so no one can complain that he doesnt deserve it when we win (yes, I'll probably be more useful in the playoffs just to make sure we clinch it in the end 😛 )

I am surprised, I never would have thought team members would progress so much in this tournament. It’s becoming increasingly difficult to predict what will happen next. What use to be clear as water, has turned a mutty grey area. I tend not trend in those waters.

To my biggest surprise, is Fangirl. Odd ball characters, yet vary abusive friendly. I never got a chance to congratulate you in our match. Congrats, Fangirl may you continue to turn heads from here on.

Why thank you very much. You helped me so much after my first two matches. I do plan on entering the next tourney. I know stuff now that I just didn't know before. watching the professionals at work has taught me alot about how the game works.

P.S. You really made me work hard on your match.

Oh I take it you figured out how to use the links I gave you? If so fantastic.

Losing to you was a huge upset for me. I didn’t see myself losing anytime soon. But then again, I have a huge ego with much elitism. At times I wonder, if I should stop entering these kinds of events.

You had a good plan. The problem as I saw it, was that it was the exact thing I was going for. I just had more of the components. We both went for a blend of TP, Magic, And Tech.

Your weakness, is how you present yourself. You need to tighten up those debate skills. Everyone’s ideas are farfetched. Giving into nerd rage, to think up of the best way to make use of our fav. Comic characters, and show boat how great they are. But can you sell that idea?

Look at me and Kandy.

If you could picture a debate as boxing (flash back from that 70’s show).
Kandy: would be puncher. He goes off to pick apart, anything, and everything that seems out of place. Overwhelm you with the sheer volumes of refuting claims.

Id: Counter puncher. I look at you, I study your plan. And I wait for you reply to feel the weight behind your claims. I am not so interested in which, if your plan is believable or not. I just want to know how many faints, and bluffs you will pull off. And If I catch them, I will counter them. Nothing hurts more, then a puncher placing momentum in their strike, only to have it solidly countered. It’s the same in debate, you put so much emphasis on how said claim is fact, and absolute truth. Prove him otherwise, and it hurts its their character.

I do realize how I present myself. Which is one reason I'll be taking on a partner for the next tourney. I like thinking up amalgams and crazy characters that are hard to argue against because no one has read that stuff lol. But the back and forth isn't really my cup of tea.

Okay, writing up my votes at the moment; would have had them in last night, but it was late and I had work in the morning.

Speaking of which, are you guys changing anything for the playoffs? Or can we expect more of the same?

All votes are in. I'll post them, along with the updated standings, when I get home from work.

At some point I or delph had posted the wrong standings, which were only slightly off because they didn't account for the vote against Blair/Smurph when they faced FG. Charlotte posted the most recent ones in the odds thread, which I believe are updated and correct:

3. B-Dub/Smurph ---- 3-1 (8-4) [.666]
5. Kandy/id369 ---- 1-3 (4-8) [.333]
6. Fangirl ---- 1-4 (4-11) [.267]
7. Kfish ---- 0-5 (0-15) [.000]

* = Clinched Playoff Berth
============

In other, more epic, news: I just figured out what my music will be for my playoff semi-final audio writeup. After the techno version of O Fortuna, The Chicago Bulls intro, some war music, and "The Touch" I was worried I wouldn't be able to follow those with a worthy successor. I really only had 4-5 writeups planned out, and now I'm a bit bushed from all the work. But it's the playoffs, so I'll man up and produce something awesome for the hundreds of fans out there that are waiting for my next installment.

B-Dub\Smurph become the third team to make it into the playoffs, congrats to you, guys🙂
I'm not sure whether or not team Id lost all their chances for playoffs, but we'll see.
I'm afraid I messed up\miscalculated percentage, correct me where I'm wrong.

I have a question.

Win or lose this match, doesn’t Scoob/Leo have the 4th spot for the play off’s?

You can still give'em hell, don't be that quick to give up, darling🙂)

That week's matches would determine playoffs placement (i.e. who faces whom).
You can still send'em to hell🙂)

Oh I will give them hell, in fact I will bring the totality of hell to them. I was just looking at the chart, and noticed that mathematically they should have a spot as well.

Yeah...you are right. The remaining matches are purely fro playoffs seeding purpose, so I'm sorry for giving you a fathom of chance.

And congrats to Scoobs and Leo on being the 4th team in the playoffs🙂
