I'll be honest, I breathed a sigh of relief. No breakdowns this time around, V?

I guess I'm going for you to win the whole thing. Never had any real reaction with Absolute Virtue other than him attacking my tournament (which went great, actually) months ago.

Yay, supporters! <3

Also, I would like to know what constitutes a score of 3 in the strategy category, because I've done three entirely different approaches and still havent gotten a score higher than a 2 in that category. Running away and playing to my range was not strategy, setting up an elaborate trap was 'spam', and deliberately playing to my disadvantage for the sake of creativity also apparently is insufficient. I'd really like to know what is expected here because I'm left scratching my head.

Wish i could help you but I guess that category depends on you going for a different approach that uses as little as possible for maximum effect might work.

But that would require your spells to be flexible and they're not, unlike Joe. xD

Getting the final match set up, then I'll release comments for the last round participants.

Actually, flexibility =/= strategy. Strategy is using what you have in the most clever ways you can think of, to accomplish specific goals.

I'll have a post up shortly, at least before I go workout.

Holy ******** christ, Virtue, you can post like that? I'm impressed in an entirely non-sarcastic way.

Winner: Since it's a tie, I am going to have to call this on personal opinion. One one hand, Virtue has deliberately said that he lost interest in this tournament. The lack of quality to his posts does put him on the burner to be eliminated if he doesn't want to be here anymore. For you, red, it was very uncalled for you to get into a hussy fit over something as someone's roleplaying. As me and others tried to tell you, the judging usually will take care of that. It wasted time and drew the match to a quick stop, having me to close it.

Therefore, I am giving this match to Virtue.

This blinds me with rage to read. I can not BELIEVE that of all the things you chose to call me for, it is a HISSY FIT (That you can't even spell.)

Sure, I made a few posts here, but in the end when you called the fight it had been almost a full week since I had posted in the OOC at all! I haven't even been back here to look at anything since about the second or third post in that thread.

You're basically disqualifying me because I didn't put a leash on Fefnir! oh, how dare I not allow him free will! I as a woman, should at all times keep tabs on my significant other, and simultaneously be making sandwiches in the kitchen for him. I thought this was supposed to be a legit tournament, not a personal preference round.

OH! and what's this? I got docked a point for being late by less than three hours, when I specifically TOLD you that day I would be late in posting. You said it yourself in the help thread that I was to be excused and wouldn't be docked points for it! On top of that your scoring for this round was far reduced from the one you gave me last round. It basically reads as the same thing, but tainted and vile hatred drips from your every word as your opinion of me has obviously lessened by your contact with Fefnir. I should have gotten a score closer to last round's if your critique is anything to judge by, but obviously you just wanted to see me lose. No.... You wanted to see me lose by a technicality. You wanted to make it APPEAR legit, and you failed horribly.

It is wholly unfair that I am DQed based on not only your personal preference but something I didn't even do. Did anyone even notice that I wasn't around for page after page after page of OOC? I don't even know what it says, I never checked what anyone had to say about my fight. I stopped looking here when it was clear that Virtue was just in this fight to piss me off.
You let a Troll win, Vin. How does that make you feel?

It makes me feel sick that I let Virtue's trolling get to me like this, it makes me sick that Vin let all this happen, and then supported it in the end. I was destined to lose from the start, that much was obvious. The arena was rigged, the fight was rigged, and then I was trolled into losing due to personal preference from the single judge in this whole tournament. I didn't even get kudos for fighting uphill the whole way. I could have continued arguing in the OOC, but I didn't. I took the high road, and left it alone after I was clearly refused by Virtue spitting in my face and calling me stupid for asking for clarification, something that I did rightfully and is required in the rules.

I got punished for following the rules for ******** sake! How can you think this is at all FAIR!? You have to be the daftest, blindest, most brain dead person on the planet to think that what has transpired here was in any sense of the word "Fair" What's worse, is that not a soul will stand beside me and call a spade a spade.

Fefnir told me that Vin said somewhere that what happened was the worst RPing he'd ever experienced.
I have to agree. What happened here was the most vile and hateful thing I have ever had the misfortune of experiencing.

Give third place to Wots. I want nothing more to do with this bastardization of writing you call a tournament.

I can already hear people in this thread calling me a whiny b***h and insulting me further for this rant. Please, shut up and go jump under a truck, you immature little ********.

To be fair, you're no better a writer than anyone else here. neutral

To also be fair, the judge's opinion of the players is kind of a shitty thing to have a fight called against you on. >.>;;

She could have handled herself a lot better.

And Sigil, I'll have a post up some time tonight. Sundays are my chat RP night so that sort of takes precedence. I already have my post outlined, I just need to wait until this ends to write it out.

Fefnir cost you the match, then. Although I do not condone it, instead of having a lack of posts due to your match, you easily could have had Fefnir posting for you during the time he was on arguing in this thread. Because I'm not sure whether you guys are the same person or not. And even if you are not, this is still a tournament. The less of a fight there is, the less I have to judge on other than the reason the fight is held up, and that's usually due to attendance on someone's part, which was mostly yours. I didn't have to score that round, but I did it anyway to show my reasoning why I made the decision that I did.

So yes, you're right. Fefnir did mess you up. Regardless, attendance was the main issue in the end.

If Sigil takes this as not super serious business like everyone else I think I might actually have fun with this. Maybe even a surprise in store.

But, I do hope my roleplaying is to satisfactory standards for the whiners this time around.
