There is reason why members are not allowed to interfere in the match in any shape or form. Now both you and Leo claim their isn’t a debate going on. However arguing the legality of my use of said character, is a debate in it of itself. Interfering of what you deem legal or not, breaches your agreement on the tournament rules. For that matter, you are still bound to follow the rules of the tournament.If you find something out of place, you bring it to the discussion thread or PM Delph. Otherwise, if members are allowed to come in, and post their opinions in the middle of the match. This could create a sway in a judges ruling.
Do you understand where I am coming from? 🙂

It seems we have different ideas on the limits of participant involvement. You told me to respect your match. I do, which is precisely why I pointed out the similarity that I did. You see, respecting a match doesn't mean shutting up and letting things play out. Respecting a match means respecting it enough to want to see it be on the same playing field as every other match. Respecting the tournament enough to want to see the same rules applied to everyone.
As I see it, it's ill's job to make rulings of this nature. I wasn't trying to sway the judges at all. I was trying to provide all relevant information to delph before he made his decision. My words had nothing to do with the judges themselves. But as it pertains to battles, I've never said a word. But as it pertains to tourney rulings on the legality of strategies, I'm never going to be silent, because each ruling sets a precedent that affects everyone. I can't afford to be silent when my future plans may be getting rearranged before my eyes.
Problem is, I doubt you'd have the same problem if I was on your side. And if I were, leo and Scoob would be fighting my opinion tooth and claw, but they wouldn't make it personal....because it isn't. At least not on my end, it isn't. That's the problem with enjoying controversy, as you alluded to earlier. I'm trying to hash out a ruling. You're taking it as a personal affront.
Now, I'm in the discussion thread now and Bada transferred my comments from the thread over here. I trust we won't have further legality quarrels, yes?

Forfeit. They missed the final deadline.
