After checking the match-list I will be cheering for any permanet injury made in that game. I thought 8 matches with skavens were bad, but the Chaosteam played 24 matches gaining 300 SPP on 3rd of Januart alone, which makes me abit sick. I am really thinking about not applying to any major this year.
I had discounted the rumors about teams being hyped up at birthday but after seeing the amount of games played and how the teams look... |

I'm just sad my goblins didn't get to a chance to splatter in this major too. |

Not that I was particularly moaning, but I'll stop as soon as you stop attempting to smash the post count record every day.
Do we have an accord? |

The problem is that even if they play during majors, they stay mainly uninjured. That's the problem. |

Is it that the elites don't want to lower themselves to playing us lightweights with less than a thousand games? |
Has someone ever told you, that you are obsessed with 'elites' that are 'arrogant' towards 'the masses'? |

Strangely enough no.
Just wondering why there is so much moaning that something has happened to give a wider set of coaches a chance at making the cut. |

Because they made the cut for a fake tournament starring fake teams? |

Yes.
Because even while elf-balling, you could get hurt PLUS you always have aging.
So those teams are even more of a fake than a team that would be created by me playing with myself using 12 PCs, 12 IPs and 12 accounts.
EDIT:
I don`t see how birthday fumbbling has giving a wider range of coaches a fighting chance in a major. I rather think that it`s the opposite. The gap between the 'elitist powergamer' and 'Joe Average' has widened considerably by the fact that Joe didn`t play 20+ games with his designated majors team on the birthday and has never touched that team ever since. |

koadah, you are obsessed with 'elites' that are 'arrogant' towards 'the masses'.
... I've no idea whether that's true, but there: a new experience for you. |
