like a guy seriously promised to forfeit, ALL of his playoff robots, that are all semi finalists, because of how wacky this tournament was (this was one person). automaton is going to the finals. this isn't insane to anyone else? everyone just wants to play this out?

lmao I'm not sure why finally just being able to wrap up 2 more weeks of a season is so annoying to you. I mean if it was like Backlash and got stalled in week 4 or 5 or whatever it was, then sure it would be a bit silly to carry on with it, but damn man.

I should go 3-1 this week but it'll probably be something like 0-4 or 0-5.

It sucks going 0-5. You lose all 4 of your bot fights for the week and you also lose at life.

lol i'm not even going to make any finals and you're locked in at least one with automaton (though you would have been beaten perseus regardless) so i honestly don't know what the hell you're crowing about

also you're the only one who seems to care about my win record which has meant dick since i'm not able to do anything with it. someone's a little obsessive.

I would hardly point fingers at Kody anyway. I'm pretty sure I've done more poking and prodding at Lian to get this wrapped up since it stalled than Kody ever did.

Agreed, except when the tournament is such a farce the tournament gets delayed twice over the course of longer than a year and a dude ends up forfeiting all his semi final matches because of the 'drama'. just like this thing die.

Wow, now I REALLY want to see this through just because of your non-reasoning for not wanting it to finish. :v:

It wouldn't hurt anyone just to finish up the literally 8 or whatever actual fights that are needed to put it in the books. Like I don't see how it could possibly bother you if we just finished it.

Quit trolling shit, it's boring. :v:

i just don't understand why you're so eager to finish this tournament other than just for completion's sake. it was a bad tournament from beginning to end and the multiple stoppages, kody forfeiting all his robots in the playoffs, etc. are evidence of this. its being played with year-old robots and year-old rules. why. bother.

four semi finalists are forfeiting. an entire quarter of the competition. because it was so bad. why is that not a huge red flag to anyone else.

It would literally take only two more weeks to do so it's hardly a large time investment.

I think that's taking it a bit far. You could hardly call the tournament bad from the beginning.

Quote:

Well if by "multiple stoppages" you mean delays, sure. But I guess every other tournament runs completely smoothly. The only real stoppage was towards the end was towards the end when multiple arguments were breaking out over several different things.

Also, Kody FFing his bots in the playoffs was his own choice as part of his initial resolution with Lian over their original argument. At this point I (and probably most other people) wouldn't think any less of Kody if he changed his mind on that. But he wants to honor that part of agreement as if no time has passed. So okay that kind of dampens the excitement of the semi-finals, but it won't really hurt the Finals at all.

Quote:
 
its being played with year-old robots and year-old rules. why. bother.
Okay that first part is so laughable and dumb as an argument. Plenty of us (and myself not least of all) regularly use bots that, in some cases, might be up to a DECADE old. You might have had a point if everybody always used completely new designs every single tournament. I mean I could literally enter my exact Crazy Bots team into Ruination and no one (well maybe you) would bat an eye.

The old rules thing, okay yeah that could be a bit awkward for people trying to RP and decide fights since the current rule set is rather ingrained in all our minds now. But it's not like every tournament is actually required to use the current rule set. Anyone is free to come up with their own rule set for a tournament, even an older rule set if they thought it was better. And again, it's only for two weeks of fights so what's the big deal?

If it bothers you that much, just ignore it. It hardly needs to affect you. If you don't want to help out on the staff in any capacity, then don't. No one is going to force you to do it.

And again just for clarification, Kody FFing (since he accounts for all 4 of the FF you refer to, but nice job with your vague, misleading sentence that seems to imply multiple different people are FFing) has precisely nothing to do with the quality of the tournament or any of the arguments you brought up. He had a big argument with Lian and at that time (AT THAT TIME mind you) didn't want any part of Lian personally. It was eventually sorted out (obviously) and he had no more ill will towards Lian or Crazy Bots, but decided to honor his initial decision.

So if you want to argue against Crazy Bots, try to use facts and not just try to throw out your own personal opinion as the truth.

just let this die
Well we're this close to finishing it as it is, so I think we should give it some proper closure by finishing it, IMHO.

I disagree with this, there was that time when robot bastards started and the tournament basically came towards a standstill :v: (no offence intended to anybody involved)
