I used the ARC PM system, but NWOWWE claimed he missed some results that were in a PM until the last minute... |

I missed deadline for two of my RPs because of real life interfering, and I really want to see how one of them (Loadout vs Smilodon) would play out. Any chance it would get counted? |

Maybe you could do a grudge match later on if Brian is okay with it. |

as the writer for that match, I'm not counting it for anything official (since it was indeed late), but if someone's willing to write a grudge match for you, I certainly don't have an issue with it (though I am not the tournament organizer )

I'll have to RP between my tournament match tommorow and leaving for work. Hopefully have some strategies by then. |

Wow... yeah... IMO that should be a DQ for this week, since it's extremely obvious he read and countered your RP. If he'd just said something like "Be careful to stay away from the hazards and don't fall for anything sneaky," it might have been okay, but that's going too far. DrummerBrian, if you can't resist the temptation to read your opponent's RP, then either write your RP in a Word document without looking at the thread, or try to RP before your opponent. |

bro that's going way overboard. you have absolutely no proof that he countered any strategy on Kody's part. you also are not NWOWWE, and do not get to make these decisions |

You're just a voice pal, you don't know a damn thing about racing!
|
To be fair, he did mention hazard baiting as a tactic in his previous RP against Lethal Carriageway, so there isn't any real way to prove that he debunked Kody's RP. I'd feel better if we got an explanation from Brian first before we outright DQ him. |

This. I just want to hear Brian's stance on the matter. I just inferred that comment to get a reaction out of Brian. It was kind of passive-aggressive, yes, but it's pretty annoying when someone seemingly completely counters your strategy out of nowhere, without anything else to fall back on. Brian? |

Well, if you remember back in R:TC, I sometimes mentioned hazard baiting in my RP's even when the other guy didn't even mention it anywhere in his strategy. I also did it last week against Lethal Carriageway, as Badnik said. Also I did not directly say that I know KodeBreaker will wait by the hazards; I said if I see hazard baiting. Maybe it was too direct, but I personally felt that KodeBreaker's RP was overly specific and came across as a bit condescending honestly. If I get DQ'ed for the week, I won't argue or appeal in any way. We need an official ruling by NWOWWE. |

Brian, if you think that was condescending, you really need to check back and see some earlier RPs from even a few years back. I don't even know how you took it like that. The entire point of my RP was my strategy, pointing out the profile of Buzz Cut, how my strategy would work along with that, and trying to convince the writer of that. If it doesn't work, it doesn't work. But the way you laid your own strategy out in your RP seemed very suspicious to me, and that's why I raised a question. Believe me, I don't want you DQ'd or FF'd, I just want things to be cleared up. I'm not trying to be the 'bad guy' or anything, but when I notice this stuff, I will raise questions. The thing is, it's seemingly me who does it most of the time, so I get the flak for it.

I don't know; maybe I just always thought that our RP's were supposed to be a bit more "formal" (not the right word, don't know how else to put it), and I thought that some of the remarks were... out-of-place is probably a better choice than condescending. However, to tell the truth......... I hate Buzz Cut. I have no idea why I decided to take Viper out but by the time I changed my mind again it was too late and the thread was closed. |
