I rarely disappoint.
😉
And we're the first two to meet up who really know what's up in tourneys and are willing to go at it like dogs. I disagree with, well, everything Abhi has said. But none can accuse him of lacking tenacity.
I still can't figure out what Abhi was thinking by drafting Abom and Captain Britain. I'm looking forward to seeing something surprising, but right now it's like if someone could choose any two weapons and he chose a hammer for the first and another slightly heavier hammer for the second. Or perhaps, more accurately, chose a hammer as his weapon and another hammer as his shield.
Don't disappoint me, Abhi. uhuh

Unofficial post.That's because my post was so big that I'd have to split it into two parts otherwise I couldn't even post it. That's why I wrote continued....... at the end of both posts. I posted only twice so I wrote it as post #2.
Ok. Just so you understand that because a post is too long for one, it has to count as two. Your numbering was just funky. You've posted 4 times, I'm working on my 3rd right now.

Well, one of us can. 😉
So are we agreed on post count? If you're going over 10K characters, it has to count as two posts. And if you're not going over 10K, you should be posting it as one post, not two. This shouldn't even be up for debate, and I think we're on the same page, but I want to confirm that we are so that we can deal with it swiftly if there's a discrepancy.

If you really want that I post only once, I would do that from now on but making my post count 4 would limit me to one more post only. This isn't a hard and fast rule anywhere and I did the same thing posters have done many times in the last several tourneys. I don't know why you're complaining.
I'm complaining because you made two posts and counted it as one. And you did that twice. It's not a hard concept. You've been on the forum long enough to know what a post is. There is a 10K character limit on posts. If you go over, you can't just say "continued" and count it as one. That's absurd. Can I just post a page worth of materials at once and count it as a single post?
Id's in agreement, and I'm quite sure everyone else will be who reviews it. We don't need to argue over it, since our opinions won't determine the decision. Just be prepared to only have one more post from this point on. I'll probably even throw you a bone and not go balls-out full-10K on my last two posts. But I'm not budging on the post count thing.

False distinction there, dude. Is there a rule saying we can't post 5 posts worth of material and count it as 1? 10? 55? Of course not. But there's a 5 post limit. That's the rule. And we all know what a post is. If your avatar and signature show up twice, you've posted twice. There's being thorough with the rules, and there's hand-holding on stuff that toddlers can grasp. Don't be stupidly pedantic. If there are instances of it happening elsewhere, it's either hosts not doing their job, or matches that never neared the post limits (or that didn't have one).
I'll adapt if needed. So will everyone else. If it gets ruled in your favor, my last two posts will take up the rest of the damn page. I'm not worried from a competitive standpoint. It's just, that extends matches, it makes judges' duties harder, and most importantly it sh*ts on the 5-post-limit rule, which is intended to limit discussion to a manageable amount.
I have a PM to curry. I didn't try to sway him, I just linked him to the discussion and asked for a ruling.

You are the guy who's using physical implants under mind draft by giving false information to tourney host and then complained that if he took that away, you'd only been left with a human mind and a useless armor and now you're trying to limit my posts by making a rule in-between the match by a rule which has never been posted anywhere and hardly anybody considers a rule? Hypocrisy much?

Threatening to derail us here. I'll try not to bite hard enough to start a flame war...
I knew Dark Angel could be considered either. Hell, that possibility was openly discussed when I drafted her...it's not something that has been hidden. So I got confirmation before sticking with her as a draft. Nothing I've done has been deliberately misleading. We openly discussed it, I received a ruling, and have been relaying it in our match. Curry had access to all scans that have been posted when he reaffirmed the ruling.
Your post here is implying intentional dishonesty, which is hard for me to ignore without getting upset. It's an ad hominem attack, not something having to do with tourney rules or matches.
As I said, I PMd curry with links and a request. Let's see what he says and move forward.

You've deliberately tried to mislead tourney host and everybody else in the tourney about her source of powers.
You know why you are permitted to use Dark angel's powers? Because Curry didn't want to pull the rug from under your legs.
I've violated no rules of tourney AFAIK and this is the same tourney where rules are being broken in every match like bringing miracle machine in a fight. You want to count my posts as two posts even though I made it clear they are one posts, you better bring the rule which says so because you're the absolute last person in this tourney to talk about rules at this point.
Dude, the first time we discussed this, I talked about the Fabric and how they equaled her powers. It was referenced in her bio that was posted, it was in the scans I posted in the discussion thread. Blair pointed out that it could be seen as a body thing. So the discussion was out there from the beginning. Here's the link:
http://www.killermovies.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&postid=14377185#post14377185
If you scroll down, you'll actually see me and Blair discuss it at length, and I actually use the words "I see your point" when he says he thinks it's a body thing. What else was I supposed to do? That's me having an open discussion during drafts about the thing you say I've been hiding. I can't help the ruling. I put it out there and went with what was decided.
The other thing you're not getting is that it's one thing to say you were misled (you weren't, I was as open as possible). It's another to pretend that you know what I was thinking, and then to claim that you know I was deliberately misleading you.
So shut the f*ck up about me personally. If you want to place some sort of twisted agenda onto me, it's your own baggage. Doing anything deliberately false taints anything I would do. I'd sooner drop out than try to lie purposely. Disagreeing about a ruling is fine. Disagreeing about a match is fine. Letting that disagreement get a bit heated is also fine. But attacking one another personally is not.
If you persist, the next step is pulling a mod in here, one that isn't part of this (I wouldn't warn you myself since I'm part of events here). Because at this point, you're well past anything tourney-related, well past anything productive, and squarely into mud slinging.
Originally posted by DigiCalm down. I'm just reminding you that you may have broken a rule here too and thus your accusations of me extending post's length which broke no rule can be considered as hypocrisy. No need to get worked over it. You disagree with my view, fine. Let's just wait for curry, OK?
