I'm in! But it depends on when this'll start. Hoping it won't start before the end of next week.

Great Avatar, by the way WCA

me too. I can't get rid of Pikachu.

EDIT: But if I do try one, which I'm going to soon. It'll be with better odds, and for a short time. :wink:

Sorry, but you can't join.
Since you dont have an avatar, you have nothing to wager or lose. Its like playing in a Casino without any money. It just doesnt work.

I will:
1. Put them into a list i am going to be making of people that should not be allowed in tournaments.
2. Ask people that played with the person to give him negative feedback.

But dont worry, If the avatar breaks any rules I wont allow it, So you will be ok wearing whatever it is if you lose.

So am I not able to participate then since you did not add my name to the first post?

If it becomes a sequential tourney, count me in, but if it remains freestyle I can't participate.

Because:
--------Not a lot of posts means you dont post in the forums.
--------Not posting in the forums means it doesnt matter what your avatar is because no one will see it.
--------If no one sees it, you wont be losing much if you lose.
--------It wont matter if you lose because no one will see your avatar even if you do lose.
--------Since this challenge is based on losing your avatars, it doesnt work if people that are never on the forums lose theirs.

Does that help you understand?

Can you make an exception about the 300 posts rule? I love to play, and I've NEVER deadbeated.

EDIT: What if I just start posting in every forum that I see starting right now?

Then go join a different tournament! This one is based on avatars and the embarrasment of losing! if you never post in the forums, there wont be any embarrasment of losing! Go find a different tournament.

*bangs head on desk*
YOU MUST HAVE AT LEAST 300 POSTS TO JOIN THIS TOURNAMENT. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE AT LEAST 300 POSTS, DONT JOIN THIS TOURNAMENT. I DONT CARE IF YOU NEVER DEADBEAT OR ARE AN AWESOME PLAYER. IF YOU DONT HAVE AT LEAST 300 POSTS, YOU CAN NOT JOIN!

kwanton · Post by **kwanton** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 9:47 pm

Wait. Can I join if I have more than 300? How about a million? Could I join then? How bout negative 300? That's like the evil twin of 300. What if I have 300 Spartans? And how do imaginary numbers factor into this? 300i? :lol:

You can't join because you don't have 300 posts. Of course I don't either and I am already in. I joined before the 300 post thing was announced but I guess I should be taken out.

Also I think you should lower the post requirement as only 320 players have that many (Go to memberlist and sort by posts) and a fair number of those are no longer active.
