Sorry, I didn't mean to say ANYTHING that would even imply anything like that...
What did I say that sounded that way?
Do you mean just how I like... put every point out there again? I figured you knew all that, I was just putting it out there again. If that was what you're talking about...?
:{

So you disagree, we know that much. But what said do you disagree with? Aside from the obvious. (who > who type of thing)

Reasons for why you think who > who is more reasonable than why they think a different who > who is what matters.
We could all say the weather will be different tomorrow but if there's no reasoning why people think differently, it's all just random and might as well do a random draw lol
A reason would be a good start :\

You know that already though so nvm >_>

Yeah guys, honestly...

Just update it
With what?
Good on Manuel for not folding to the pressure. How can you update with such disagreement.


Also, since some people like putting words in other people's mouths...

No matter how badly Eric did at that tournament, it can be discounted. However if he did good, it would be used as supporting evidence for 1st.

lol tiep
If that's what you got from what I said, (or manuel, I don't even think he mentioned that lol) you need to read it again.
Eric did bad at the tournament, that's the reason he would even be winked at as 'not first'. No johns to him, he lost.
What you seem blind to is that Tony doesn't get johns for his losses either. He lost, just like Eric did.
Then take the REST of it into acount, more losses for Tony, and wins for Eric.

Quote from me - "Tony losing to john and manuel not being significant and Eric having one bad tournament being so impactful on the PR is a little scewed..."

They both factor into as they're both the results of their performances. They both lost. Sure, some people think Eric/Tony are better than the people they beat/each other, that doesn't change anything.

They BOTH lost. Not ONE of them...
But ONE of them has better results in the last 4/5 tourneys then the other. You can guess who...

That's all anyone ever said :\



lol ryan

I don't take anything offensive so don't worry about that for me. Especially when I know everything I said is valid/true, and I would assume you wouldn't mean to be offensive even if it did sound that way.
I'll try sounding nicer myself for you though. :]

Hope that didn't sound mean btw tiep lol

Edit: btw, nobody put any words in anyone's mouth
until you :O

I'm not going to update irrationally.

Dieslow has made it clear he isn't willing to use tournament results to break the stalemate and move forwards.

Is that true for you as well, Tiep?

It looks a lot like Peach's color wise.

How many players' hair resemble Falco's (given that there's about a million in BC)?

What were the last 4 tournaments?

1. Eric's
2. John's (Was supposed to be at Eric's)
3. ?
4. ?

I don't count jimz. I can't put heavy emphasis on tournaments I'm not at. (WA). So what should I use for 3 and 4?

How about GENESIS, should that not count at all? lawlz

I'll say it again, eric took a match off M2K and took 3 shiz stocks whereas shiz only took 2 off eric in crews. Eric was 4 stocking good players like lovage and tang, he 3 stocked dark rain in a friendly too. I feel most of you aren't taking ANY of that into account. OOS national tournaments should count for more than anything. >_>

OOS national tournaments are THE most important thing (by far)

Isn't that the goal of a good smasher to begin with? To do well on a LARGE scale? Not just their home town? lol
(TP3/Genesis/other WA >>> ALLLL of Van stuff)

Tiep - if you don't want to count tournaments that only 1 of them attended, that could date back like 4 'seasons' lol. It might not at the moment (it might ionno) but it'll no doubt be problems (recency/variaty/w/e) if you 'choose' your tournament base that way.


It's already mid-October...half way through fall.
Soon you might as well wait for winter (December?) to update the winter PR lol.

1. Eric did well against a bunch of good players.
2. He goes back to Vancouver and plays a bunch of local players.
3. Local players see the level he is at.


That is how things should be deduced. He shouldn't ascend to God-Level for doing good against players that no local players have played. It's very difficult to extract how well he does somewhere else and say he's the best because of it.


Also, I never said I wasn't willing to take those tournaments into account. I'm just saying it's not possible for me to put as much emphasis on those tournaments as you would like me to. I also asked what tournaments 3 and 4 SHOULD be. I didn't say anything about not counting OOS.


It's already mid-October...half way through fall.
edit: fall began approximately 3 weeks ago. Winter is approximately 10 weeks away.
We are about 3/13 of the way through fall. Exaggerate much?

When he came back he swept the competition in BC, taking 1st. Just say'n.

Anyways, Tourneyplay 3 is this weekend. Hopefully we can get some BC rep moreso the top 3 so we can better determine what the top 3 spots are.

Also, "Eric did well against a bunch of good players" is an understatement. M2K, Darkrain, and Shiz would be considered "GREAT" players.

What were the last 4 tournaments?

1. Eric's
2. John's (Was supposed to be at Eric's)
3. ?
4. ?

I don't count jimz. I can't put heavy emphasis on tournaments I'm not at. (WA). So what should I use for 3 and 4?
1. Eric's
[Washington]
[Genesis]
2. John's, sposda be at Eric's
3. Zhu
4. SFU - the one where we did crews at the end. This was a LONG time ago though, I don't remember if there were any between Zhu and SFU.

That being said,
1. Eric's

*I won, beating Tony, Tony , Tiep, Ryan, John, Evan
* Tony came second, losing only to me twice, beating Ryan, Tiep, and Eric
* Eric lost to John and Tony (I think everyone saw these matches)

I know it's not ideal to use tournaments that not everyone attended, but it is illogical to discredit them altogether. For example, if Eric had gone to Genesis and 4stocked everyone no problem, you wouldn't be saying "o ya well tony and manuel wurnt there". A bit of an extreme case, yes, but it serves to show that perforrmance is still to be valued, whether or not other players were there. This was a HUGE tournament, and he was BC's rep. He took 17th, worldwide. He did very well in crews, even against Armada after he had just savaged Kage and beaten Vwins.

Could Tony have done as well? Maybe-- but all this is now speculation. We can't know. What we do know is that Eric performed, and that says something about his talent.

The same is true of the Washington tournament, albeit to a lesser scale, because the same type of names weren't there. Still, he performed well there against an on-his-game Eggz who beat out SW. This isn't concrete evidence that Eric> Manuel and Tony in terms of tournament performance, but it helps put things in perspective on a bigger scale.

2. John's (sposda be at Eric's)

* Eric beat me in winners, sent me to losers'.
* Eric beat Tony, sent him to losers'.
* I beat Tony, took him out of the tournament.
* Eric beat me in grand finals, though I have (I gotta get outta here) johns.

This is pretty self explanatory.

3. Zhu's tournament

* Eric beats Tony in winners'.
* Eric loses to Zhu.
* Tony beats Eric in losers'.
* Tony loses to Zhu.
* Manuel comes closest to beating Zhu, but is an idiot who kills himself.

What does this tournament tell us? Falcos are meant to be played in dittos. Performance here was quite comparable, I recall Tony doing a little bit better than Eric against Zhu, and I in return did better than Tony.

4. SFU (I'm sorry if there was a tournament later than this, I can't remember)

* Eric sends me to losers' aghh
* Eric takes me out of losers' aghh
* Tony beat Eric, twice I think
* Viets lost crew money match, including me beating Tony

You see, the trend is that Tony was doing better in tournaments farther back-- SFU and Zhu's (and even at Zhu's, it was only slightly better). Just before and after Genesis, it would appear Eric picked it up and since then he was doing well. This is NOT including Jims, where Eric took first and Tony took 3rd after losing to John and his falcon.

Let me give my interpretation of these tournaments, then.

1. Eric's recent tournament
=> Manuel performed best. Tony performed 2nd best.

2. John's tournament, supposed to be Eric's
=> Eric performed best, didn't lose a set. Manuel performed 2nd best.

3. Zhu's tournament
=> In terms of who they won to and lost to, Eric and Tony performed the best. If we want to say that Tony did better against Zhu than Eric did, we also have to say that I did better than both of them. This tournament is a bit of a toss up-- it shows how close we are.

4. SFU
=> Tony performed best. Eric performed 2nd best.

So to me, it would seem as though Eric has been performing the best in tournaments. My track record has also been cleaner than Tony's recently too. I think we are all just stigmatized by Tony's aggressive playstyle and confidence.

Let me know any agreements or disagreements.
