Dorks...LOL

Team paid, PM sent.

I would suggest starting team discussions on a different facebook or google plus chat board once the individual teams are determined.

Any more word on the Friday event?

The one that I question is Bring Something for Your Opponents. Not to slight other teams who have done this is the past, but to me it blurs the line between bribery and good sportsmanship.

Rgr that.

Looking forward to seeing all y'all again! Any word on the list/rating submittal date? It's been a few weeks since tho was last mentioned. Thanks!

The Emperor's Neckbeards are currently organizing two teams to bring from Richland.

will work something up for this, definitely.

Where does he get all those wonderful gif's?

It's like we're playing Last Word now or something.

And I love it when I say it's cool and drop the subject and the person still tries to ruffle my feathers and keep the discussion going. :roll eyes:

The band is just fantastic, that is really what I think!

Didn't really feel like getting sucked into a troll war arguing over my own opinions with pretre. he's already demonstrated an inability to get what I'm saying, and I've said all I wanted to say about it, so it's cool.

lol! pretty close, just not angrily!

Ok, lol, so now you are asking me to present hard data on conversations where I've talked to people about and the best sportsman is touted as the top prize over the past 15 years that I've been attending or organizing tournaments and game days?... lol, sorry, cannot stop laughing over this one! Ok, at this point I'm just going to withdraw--the conversation is just starting to get silly

Like banning and social contract, right?

You mean hard data like when the tournament organizers say, 'and now, the most important award at this tournament?'

Pretre, you have way too much time on your hands, man! lol! I'm quite clear about what I said, but thanks for the recap. overall, it was tl/dr. conversations do have a habit of rambling at times, granted, but my point has remained the same throughout, as I believe you recapped.

Actually, I have done this at most of the regional tournaments here in eastern Washington, and it is by far and away the number one answer.

No idea what you mean by moral high horse--just my opinions here. The lesson I hope you take away from this has nothing to do with me or my playstyle or being more like me, trust me. You'll have to look deeper to find it. I'm being very polite and gentlemanly, and am trying to explain it to you in the most polite terms possible. I am not suggesting or endorsing any particular playstyle, as you seem to keep coming back to. I'm not really worried about friends on here, either. My actions and my games with folks speak for themselves.. I've gotten more than my share of all four of the awards, and am in no way covetous of this or any other award that I was in a competition for but did not win. AP, you ever win a best sportsman? It's not easy, and it's pretty great when it happens, believe me.

Sorry, but you are both missing my point. I'm not even complaining about the elder lists. I merely pointed out that the two top lists happen to be the only codex that could bring gargantuan creatures, that I thought it was not merely a coincidence, and that I thought that it somewhat lessened the victory since neither winning list faced anything even remotely capable of dealing with them. all personal opinion, so no arguments from my side.

That's also why I don't think we'll see eye to eye on this. It's much more important to me to compete for the best sportsman or best painted, since those are the aspects of the hobby I most enjoy. However, my opinion of AP's and Alex's lists are still valid, regardless of the results of the tournament. It remains my hope that AP gains a lesson or insight from this experience beyond the actual top placement results. That's all I'm saying.
