[Slhoka]

Sorry for the location mistakes. If I got something wrong, don't hesitate, tell me !

Also, thanks to Teczero for fixing this

Edit :

Any other errors?

Slhoka - If you'd like the revised list let me know, I'll send it to you.

No, thank you. I actually use a spreadsheet that formats the bbcode and everything automatically, so I don't really have any use for the transformed list.

Edit 2 : And anyway, I can have it by quoting the post lol

 

[DJ Nintendo]

LOL


you know you still owe my best friend like 300 bucks right

Edit. Ignore.

 

[Little England]

Any other errors?

My Location should be CA/IN, not CA/IL.

 

[Teczer0]

K, got it

 

[KirbyKaze]

How much was it to enter into Pound 5? Like, 50 bucks? But you need to stay somewhere and eat too (admittedly, one could get free housing with a local player probably but eating is somewhat of a necessity; even packing food beforehand costs money). Plus there's the cost to get there...

I mean, I don't want to get too involved in this or anything, but if you owe someone else money, but you're also taking $100+ dollars pleasure trips to smash tournaments, it's hard to believe much effort is being made to repay the debt. Especially when it drags for over a year...

Missing Pound could easily cover halfish of the debt. You can't really make the argument that you expected to win teams or something to make money, either, because you're not that good...

I dunno. What effort have you made?

 

[SleepyK]

it's ok the rapture is here all debts are erased

 

[rhan]

I blew over 500+ dollars at Pound 5.
Cuz I was one of the innocent ones that paid for two rooms and only housed 4 people in each.

 

[KAOSTAR]

When will you be accepting applications again?

 

[Divinokage]

The rapture makes me remember Nes Noob.. =/ He will save the world! He's going to use his 4th dimension raptor power.

 

[Slhoka]

When will you be accepting applications again?

When people will submit applications

There isn't any set date : you apply whenever you want, we review (a bit whenever we want, too ) and that's it.

 

[KAOSTAR]

dully noted. Thanks

 

[Wschl]

any hint why applications are denied and what to do better enxt time?=D

A ******** stage on the stage list? It's like you're from the midwest or something

 

[Deleted member]

Umbreon was denied?

Wow.

honestly, there are a lot of reasons as to why I'd be denied and most of them are probably pretty reasonable (pissed off a lot of people, cussed out the owner of the website in public, super arrogant application, haven't played in tournaments in forever, etc.), but I'd be surprised if they were reasons that were intellectual in nature (inability to debate, not smart enough, etc.)

i was kind of sad until I saw who actually got added, and then I saw the new debate guidelines and now I don't really care. I would have liked the ego boost I guess of other people thinking I'm "smart", whatever that means in an undefined context. But as soon as I saw the new guidelines I would have quit the user group anyway like I did for the BBR. It's a little shallow and spiteful, but it was probably for the best anyway and saved at least teczero from wasting his time.

it's more like the MBR became something i'm not really interested in anymore. i don't disagree with their decision to change it or to deny me, it just worked out that way.

good luck andy, you got this!
