Our LJ invitation

[Confluence]

Don't active squads typically play more than a game every 3 days? Also, wouldn't competitive squads want to a harder challenge? I think we chose the more active and competitive squad.

Yeah, who needs a ladder for qualifying when pascone and his merry men can handpick us. You should be very proud of how you stood above us all and then side stepped your own system to place someone else in lj for us. Congratulations

Over my 8+ years of playing subspace ive witnessed some poorly organized twls, but this one has definately taken the cake.

thumbs up!

this isn't over with yet?

I'm sorry megaman89, but I deem your twld lineup to be inferior to quicksand so they are in and you are out. Was in the best interest of competition.

Would it be over for you?

lol don't know how many times I gotta explain this to you. The selection process isn't based on your one factor. Based on the TWO factors, your squad had the lowest based on a very reasonable formula.

Conf mate, i feel sorry for u but that how its going to be.

Winning two games against dice (Cig smoke and a2m were in one game, I don't know what the other one looked like. You also lost vs dice when they had a real line in, but failed to reference that.) isn't really saying much.

Just a quick sidenote, when did a2m become a joke in javelin? I'm pretty sure he's one of Dice's best, or at least used to be... definitely not a pushover.

[pascone]

he's a nascar fan. he's not as good as he once was?

2.02
"....both Rating and Average Opponent Rating...."

Our point rating was higher.

Our ave opponent rating was also higher than 3 other squads above us.

Points are weighed more than the strenght of schedule, if you will. It's clear that they were thus more deserving

strange how that works in some ways, but not in others.

And where are these other phantom twl ops who supposedly agree with your decision pasc? i dont see any of them here backing you up.

also why isn't a qualifying game a viable solution? you still refuse to comment on the only sensible way of showing us that the twl staff actually has the best interests of the TW community when they make decisions like these, rather than looking like a bunch of 2d power whoring internerds.

I'd be willing to wager that the majority of tw would agree that a qualifying match would be the fair way to handle this.

they had more points than you. more points to the extent that your slightly higher opponent average still had you at the lowest score.

you had 2 months for qualifying games. not even quicksand is complaining. there can't be too much wrong if they aren't complaining about a twl decision.

I also don't see any of these phantom twl ops disagreeing with the decision either. If you want to hear from them, talk to them.

and i still don't think anyone in the whole zone has actually read the twl rules. the one damn rule states quite clearly that these 15 games played only qualifies you to be CONSIDERED. playing 15 games and having one of the top 12 ratings is not what gets you into twl. it's pretty clear actually.

[SLaQ n Sauce]

quicksand isnt complaining because they didnt qualify for twld, just like plade didnt qualify for twlj.

and we had more points than plade. So, if we look at ave rating then, which was lower than plades, yet higher than others who made into twlj. So if the # of points matters for those above us with lower ave rating, how can this same "rule" be disregarded in our place. You have to be pretty damn retarded not to see the hypocrisy in this.

and still no comment about a qualifying match. didnt realize your ego was too big to swallow, pascone.

well obviously it is not clear or else there wouldnt be all this confusion.
So next year, make rules which dont include vague doublespeak that u can distort at a whim, and set this year right by allowing a qualifying match.

[pascone]

again, you had plenty of time for a qualifying match. seeing as this post is going absolutely no where, this will likely be my last post in it. yes, you had a higher opponent average than mambo and heracy. that's point has been beaten to death. however, they also had more points than you. (as you sit here saying we had more points than plade) yes. but, your opponent average was lower than plade. ok, so if that's the case, then mambo and heracy also had lower opponent averages. yes. but had more than 17 points than plade. you didn't. using a formula that weighs actual points a lot more than opponent average, your squad had the least amount of points.

so recap,
your squad's points were higher than plade, but lower than mambo and heracy.

your squad's opponent average was MUCH less than plade, but not much higher than mambo or heracy.

your squad was the odd squad out. bike was able to foresee this, yet the arrogance or something of your squad prevented you from gaining a more substantial amount of points.
