oh nova posts porn pics and mr mean gay elvis doesn't come deleting his posts....how rude
as min said earlier, this isnt about winning money, this is about getting people to commit to play the tournament, instead of bail after saying they will join.
ok how about this. you send 1 dollar. if you win your first match up you get 2 dollars. if you lose it you lose 1 dollar.
if you cant spare 1 dollar to play a tournament, then that's fine. it just tells me you arn't committed, and so i nor the other committed players would want you in anyway, so please by all means, fuck off. or possibley you are too poor to spare a dollar, like q-man seems to be, in which case, you should probably be finding a job instead of playing winbolo. either that or you are some 11 year old who frankly, i dont want in the tournament anyways. 11 year olds cant be depended on for crap. also, there are stupid "get paid to write surveys" or "get paid to read email" etc, that all pay at least a dollar. you can spend an hour and do that, and make your every-dollar-counts-dollar-for-free-cuz-im-a-cheap-ass-qmandabom-that-has-probably-never-paid-anyone-a-tip-or-donated-to-a-charity-cuz-i-hate-you.
also, if you are too lazy to make a paypal account to input 1 dollar, which is as easy as going to the site, click twice, type in your email, confirm, then either use a creditcard or your bank account to send it one dollar, then i suspect you are too lazy to plan a schedule and organize games at given times, with given opponents.
as for madmaxx, you know why you were banned. also, perhaps cussing at the person who set tha ban isnt the most productive strategy to be unbanned.
as for "oh but there is no webpage" if there are 10 people who will play the tourny, one will be put up. why waste my time when so far 99% of the people are just bitching at me anyways?
if the tourny was free, i am sure lots of tracker newbies, and passer-by new players will say "oh ill join" and then disappear. why am i sure? cuz that is what happened before.
and sj, wtf, i dont wear glasses, and where are my pubes?
too poor? too irresponsible? Have I talked with you about this lately? Dude, I am 13, I go to school and I referee soccer games on Saturdays for money. I am certainly not poor. In fact, if i were poor, how could I be buying pizza? Also, you say im immature? Wasnt it older playersast year who fucked up and hacked?? And speed hack no longer exists. So I dont see why you ask for the hassle of an entry fee because everyone showed up for their games last year. Hmmm... maybe older players need to watch their maturity?
doesn't paypal take most of that dollar? and ud those your your leet dollar symbol sunglass' you bought with q's 5 bucks....and ren ate all the pubes
lol you alll suck hahahah this is funny to read im going to use my 1 canadian dollar to by an ice cream cone lol hahahaha
ps ud is going to win(not like anybody didnt know that)
and qs right im only 14 yrs old and theres no time for bolo theres school basketball ect ect i say just do the tourney in the summer well later hjahahah the TERMINATOR IS GOING TO TERMINATE YOU
not sure if paypal eats up the dollar. i have like 15 bucks in my paypal, and it wasnt eaten up.
oh, and "older players that fucked up and hacked" please explain any instance in the past tournament where an older player hacked, id be interested
This thread is one of the funniest things I've read in a long time.
i agree with you beast this is funny to read and i like how underdog keeps bitching at everyone lol i love arnold the governator hes my uncle hahahahaha
Fucking make me asswhipe.... i dont see u cussing at sj or fermat or anyone else who went againstt he tourney. So YOU can stfu.
Kudos to Underdog for taking the time to think this through and spending the time to write it up. Several of us know from experience it's not easy to spend the time and energy to do stuff related for the winbolo community.
I agree with Fermat that I see lots of potential problems with paying an entry fee. It's a good idea in the sense that it will definetely commit people to playing the game. However, making it a pay tourney - raises the stakes for people and with winbolo being so unstable - so bug laden - it can raise the nastyness level a few notches if someone feels they were dealt unfairly.
And finally - didn't Skywalker's single elimination tournament work out where everyone actually played their game? Sure there was some bumps, but in the end didn't everyone play and didn't we get a clear winner? And those of us who didn't play got to enjoy seeing the result of the tourney - especially with Stick's analysis and stuff.
Anyway good luck in your tourney UD no matter what shape it takes! I for one would enjoy seeing a match-up with charts and analysis even if I don't take part in it.
ps. I like Min's idea of everyone who were in the top half gets double their money - with those on the second half losing their money - IF Winbolo was stable enough.
The reason I like min's idea of rewarding those who were in the top half is that I'm pretty sure 90% of us know who are the most likely to end up in the top 3 spots - or at least the top 2 spots. However, it's a little murkier knowing who will end 4,5,6th place - and it gives a great goal for those who would never have a shot of placing in the top 3.
Yes Fireice! Nice picture SJ! Eat shit and die underdog!

once again ren proves he is not mature enough to be in any place of power.
