Well, the fact is, you still should have won.

One judge should not outweigh two judges. That makes no sense whatsoever, no matter HOW big of a point difference there is, which I pointed out about Kenji's fight. It lacks a third judging, but it doesn't need it - 2/3 judges agree that Kenji won, even if the third disagrees, it won't matter.

Or, it shouldn't. Points are just a means to explain WHY someone won, they shouldn't overrule a simple majority like that.

Judge majority -> point system to show WHY the judges chose who they did, NOT to control the outcome -> comments, which further elaborate on why the fighters scored as they did in each judge's opinion.

This is an exaggerated example, but under the current system, let's say the max is 30 points. Fighter A/Fighter B are graded.

Judge 1 it 28/26.
Judge 2 gives it 29/24.
Judge 3 gives it 1/30.

Fighter B would win simply because one judge's opinions don't mesh with the others.

I mean, that's just all kinds of ******** up and wonky, and this is throwing aside 100% judge bias because this enables judges like that (not that there seems to be any here and this year thank god), but it makes no sense as Darth has pointed out.

Points are a measure by which the fighter got a vote, the votes are supposed to be what decides the winner.

[Pats Snow's back.] Fret not. Several others of us have became first year fodder this year sadly.

Perhaps this means we need to go to secret training camp and become badass while a new generation rises up and fails on levels we couldn't have imagined.

PHAHAHAHAHAH no, [Rubs tears away from laughter.] Good one.

Really though, I think taking this time to play an absurd amount of video games, exercise heavy, find work, and think diabolical thoughts'll do me wonders.

Hael, its not the resulting loss that surprises me - hell, Rylen fought pretty well, so I wouldn't have minded the loss but -
- it's how there's a dramatic 6 point difference on the second judge that surprises me.

What was the deciding factor that costed me that fight?

We won't find out unless the judges in question decide t be nice and send us comments, Snow. So we just have to take it at face value they're not faggits.

I'm not surprised I lost, just disappointed. My opponent was quite good, even if many I spoke to kept saying otherwise going "HUHR I'LL LAUGH IF YOU LOSE." I suspect she'll go pretty far this year.

I already in a less addle-headed state of mind see my most damning fault in that fight, as close as our results were. And it's something I'm ready to rectify albeit too late.. this year.

Ah, but there's a DT, hopefully an HoH, and god knows what else besides the next GTB to apply said knowledge to. [Cracks fists.]

Truthiness. There's always those and then whatever some Gaian billionaire decides on throwing together.
