I mentioned about the bounties and that I believe more than 1 should be allowed not only 1.
How many should be allowed? 5? 10? 100? When do we know when to stop? Ultimately, it is John and Eric's tourney, they can decide how they want
The rules to me should be changed.
You seem to be alone in this opinion.
I thought its totally ridiculous.
Why, cause you didn't win money? A couple dozen other people also didn't win money... but they seem to be fine about it.
Yes I did mention that I thought that the tournament was rigged in the bounties and believe this still.
It is not rigged. They said the bounties were random. If you think they are rigged, provide evidence.
How can still a 2,200 score end up winning something when almost all players in a tournament who have been playing for years end up basically getting nothing out of it?
Because the mystery bounties are designated completely irrespective of skill and effort and because no one is entitled to win money in any tournament like this -especially if it is competely free of charge.
Still doesn't make any sense to me.
It should. But hopefully my elucidation of the clear logic helps now.
But whatever.
Yes, just let it go.
I won't be playing in any more tournaments anyways if John and Eric will always be in charge.
Making enemies now? That's not nice. They did nothing wrong so long as you can't prove that they are out to get you (which they obviously weren't/aren't)
Unless one day the tournament decides to change the moderators or whoever is in charge of them.
Since everyone I know agrees with and has no beef with how they've been running the tourneys so far, I can't imagine the tournaments' organization changing hands will effect anything different in this regard. Looks like you're out of luck.
And yes I have made friends and I know that there are friends who are still behind me anyways and can understand how I feel about this.
Who? Name names or don't make this claim. Who? Brian? Like he's an objective source of knowing what is logical or best. I honestly know no one who agrees with you in taking issue on the mystery bounties, so I really want to know to whom you are referring.
And yet they mention to me about being a poor sport on top of it?
You didn't win a
random bounty and you are complaining about it. That is being a poor sport. You shouldn't get mad at *people* for
randomness. Didn't I help to promote this last tournament to all the webpages that I knew of?
I don't know. It gets lost behind all the complaining that comes afterwards. Kinda two-faced if you ask me.
Didn't I try to do my best to actually help them?
I honestly don't recall any of this... but even if it is true, it is irrelevant if you just end up being the only person who consistently criticizes the tournaments for bad reasons.
I thought I was doing a bit of my part.
No one asked you to promote or play, nor was this asked of anyone else I know. All that is asked for is respect and thanks for providing bounties for a
free tournament. And simple logic asked that one not get mad at inanimate things such as bad randomness.
I guess I was wrong in the first place to even try to put a bit of my time to actually help out as well.
The ends ought not dictate the means in this case. You ought to be nice to people regardless of whether or not you'll win somethign that is dependant upon
complete randomness.
All the tournaments I have played in, I have actually always felt that alot of the mystery bounties was rigged alot of the time anyways.
Prove it or it is merely a claim.
I always actually have felt that.
You should base this sort of claim on much more than simply a feeling.
I know actually a couple other players who actually thought the same thing that I did!
Again, name names or don't make these claims.
If Eric and John want to, they can actually ask a bunch of the other players as well besides me who would think that there was something fishy about those mystery bounties.
Everyone I've heard is fine with it, so I really wanna know who your sources are.
I know i'm definately not the only person.
Get them to this thread then so that they can speak up as well. So far, it seems as though you are the only person.
I'm sorry that I'm speaking my mind but this is the truth!
So far, it has not been demonstrated that your claims are true. All that seems to be true is that you "feel" your claims are true.
Whoever wants to go ahead and leave my page and are on Eric and John's side, then go ahead!
Leaving your page simply because people think you are wrong on this issue is just as dumb as blocking people on FB because they disagree with you and give you pushback on things. That is something Brian Allen would do (and does). People should not be like him in this respect.
I'm sorry that I'm actually speaking my mind about this!
Maybe just change your mind on this issue and you won't have to apologize. It's not that hard to see that you're current view is unmerited by both the evidence and the reasons you've provided.
And..........
