Or maybe he looked at the state of some of the claims posts, and went stark raving mad in an atempt to make up for the sheer inability of some of the comunity to READ THE FUNKING RULES....

Now Red, you know it doesn't matter how in detail you explain how you want things set out, even with examples, people still seem to want to do their own thing without even thinking how it may inconvenience the organiser.

True, but I've never seen the requirments ignored so much, hell, one paticular commander was told (by GS I bleive) that his claim post didnt fit the rules, he acknoladged, then did jack ****. That one poster took me almost as long to count as the entire second page combined...

Yeah well that's the point you just tell 'em to sod off and not bother counting them.

May make you sound like an arsehole, but in all seriousness if people aren't going to make it harder for you or whoever's doing the tallying then stuff 'em, don't let 'em participate. It's that simple.

oops hit buttons too fast, cant delete.

So red, do you have Tam's spreadsheets or are you typing it out all again?

Wed Dec 31, 2008 6:43 am

I'd imagine that's 50/50 neliz. But most likely he had a partial copy and he's doing the rest by hand. Or he might even be doing it all from scratch. Tammuz wouldn't just bail on something like this, so I hope she's ok. I'm hoping it's something small like she's just sick and too weak to get on the computer. And nothing serious.

I completely agree. If/when I run another tourney, the rules will be clearly stated (as they are with the scalphunt) along with a caveat that if they are not followed, you will be disqualified, period.

Some people just don't follow the rules intentionally no matter how many times you remind them of them. I'd venture to guess that those same people in this tourney won't bother adjusting their claims to fit the rules even after all this public admonishment.

I cleared all of the logs a few days ago because the log database was too large which was crashing the website. Omega Sentinel didn't program the current log system so it still has all of the inherent problems that it always has had. As soon as I cleared out the logs, Seibertron.com began loading fine once again. Problem resolved.

I didn't realize that clearing out those logs would affect any of your records. I wouldn't get too stressed out about it since HMW version 1 is nearing an end anyways. Some of the staff wanted HMW1 to be shut down during the time period leading up to the release of HMW2 but I wanted to keep it going because I know you guys have fun with it regardless.

Insignificant overall? That's a hell of a way to describe our favorite game.

Tell them that baseball sucks and is very boring. Like this:

Baseball sucks, it's boring as hell. I'd rather read a book or watch the History Channel (I really would. Baseball sucks.)

Baseball is hardly America's past time anymore.

The NFL has better ratings and more attendance at games.

I think even NASCAR gets better ratings then the MLB now :shock:

For nearly 300 years, that was Britian's favorite sport, too. Especially against that strange land across the channel known as France.

No worries...according to the Russians, we'll collapse in 2010...thank God I live in the northeast. I'd rather be a part of the UK than Russia or Mexico, lol...

Russia's wishful thinking

Either way, our turn at world domination has come to an end, methinks. I just hope our Chinese bankers are friendly when they officially take over. :grin:
