    Not necessarily, I think a13x and ction are the stronger spinners of the four, it would have been nicer to have a13x vs ction as the final battle. A13x the world champion, sounds nice ^^

    You've got such a great talent to say stupid things in every post bro (sun) Sutomo was better than Ction this round, A13x & Sutomo were the best, period :) Anyway Congratz to you two, I'm really happy to have reached the semi finals that was like the best thing that ever happened in my penspinning life, even better than winning the WC12 (sun) However making 10 WC/WT combos in two years completely killed me so you might not see me around for a few months. Good luck to the finalists

    I actually wrote up a full analysis of Sutomo and Ction, but then chrome decided to crash on me halfway through finishing sutomo's. It wasn't based on any point scores, just what I see. But honestly, you're not worth rewriting it for. You don't seem to understand what an opinion is when I say I think to be met by you saying "Sutomo were the best", claiming your opinion as fact and saying I make stupid posts. Of course, it's not stupid when I agree with your opinion, though, when I supported LeftFinger Vs Mind in the third round. You're all like: [B]Don't like what I don't like or what you say is stupid![/B] How immature. [B]Edit:[/B] You know what, while I'm at it, the only point disagreed with me before then was when I was talking about F2F vs Sutomo and saying Sutomo's combo was better. Which it was in the end, because it knocked F2F clean out of the tournament! How stupid I am!

    I said nothing about his penspinning or his knowledge of his penspinning. How well you spin a pen is not a measure of your maturity, which you've just said here. I also didn't say he was incorrect, can you not read? I was talking about him taking his view which is subjective and thus an opinion as fact and calling my post stupid when I clearly made out it was an opinion.

    The thing you don't seem to understand is that I'm not expressing my point of view right here, I'm expressing a [B]fact[/B]. Every single thing I'm saying on these WT13 threads isn't based on my opinion(except when I'm telling my predictions), otherwise i'd say Rex is the WT13 champion lol. When I say something I try to be as objective as possible, even though you're right by sayin that skilled spinners aren't automatically the best judges, it still helps judging if you're yourself a good spinner. I've been around for 5 years and I've watched thousands of videos, I've had hundreds of debates and arguments on msn, fpsb & upsb about tournaments and top spinners etc, I made millions of analysis, reading people opinions and then making conclusions to improve my judging skills to be as objective as possible. You've got the right to express your opinion but you keep telling shit, I'm sorry. Even though you're telling your opinion, that doesn't allow you to force spinners to think the way you think. Adding "imo" at the end of the sentence doesn't make you somebody intelligent or anyway, and it doesn't mean that it is true either. And like I've told you millions of time, you should definitely try to learn more about penspinning. Otherwise F2F would be the lamest spinner on Earth (sun)

    This is also irrelevant, but I'll reply anyway: Learn more about penspinning? Honestly a large amount of tricks and information on penspinning is already in my knowledge, what is left to do is practice to bring my skills up to where my mind is at. Irionically I've made it quite clear that F2F is one of my idols and I respect him heavily, I certainly do not think of him anywhere NEAR the "lamest spinner under the sun", but what I do think is that people should not go around claiming he is the "best spinner in the world", because what makes the best spinner is also subjective, and it is claiming opinion is fact. Exactly what you're doing here.

    Simple example. Peter says << In my opinion, I've won the WT >> Ok, that is not wrong because its an opinion. Ok, IMO OK OK OK IMO. But, still, peter has no fucking idea about WT, how is the tournament going, what a TA is, and penspinning in general. Conclusion -> Arguing with opinions doesnt make you less stupid. If the name of any member in UPSB is peter, sorry, no offense. Take a cookie (::.) <3 Oh. Also.

    That is not a very subjective example though RPD, so it doesn't really correlate here. It is more so: Spinner A thinks Spinner C is going to win the WT Spinner B thinks Spinner D is going to win the WT Spinner C and Spinner D are both in the WT and are at the same level (final round in this case), opinions are opinions. But I get what you mean. It's fine to argue opinions though, you CAN argue which spinner is better than the other, but it is in retrospect, quite stupid, I don't think I shall be arguing about another spinner again, regardless whether Ivabra is backing me up, because it's based on opinions and it doesn't lead to anything but wasted time. However, in this case it is not alright to claim your opinion is THE fact and that people who disagree with you are stupid. That's called being intolerant and a dick.

    Do you not know how to understand a message instead of just reading words? I hope you do understand that words don't only carry their own meaning, but there can also be a hidden meaning behind the obvious meaning of the words. But looking at your reaction I think I will be disappointed.

    As I study English I should know quite well what semantics are and why you're trying to pretend you used it now. Incase you're unaware, semantics is the meaning of the text. Whereas the only meaning here is that you're using a strawman argument because you don't like me personally. This is an argument, not a discussion on the meaning of a poem. I'm nor sure if English is your first language, but it is mine, and I need no lecturing on what semantics is by someonw who cannot so much as know the word semantics itself. Perhaps you're referring to pragmatics, the individual connotation of each word? Nope, you're not, and I know you were never aware such a topic as pragmatics even existed. You know nothing of whar you're talking about. Incase you're wondering, no, neither you nore Iva really take use of pragmatics on this forum and exploit it, and it's main use to to help back up the obvious and establish the tone. Texts rarely have a different, unclear meaning, and they are usually satire. You are likely not skilled enough to write successful satire, much less something that hides a specific semantic meaning. But then again, the purpose of everything you write in reply to me is to argue against me and try to win, because you've argued with me before and you take everything I say like an attack to you and start whining how mean I am for not supporting your view after. So either argue for what you believe or keep on backing up people blindly like sheep and making laughable posts such as this one, claming you know but a single thing of English! Go to bed!

    plz just knowing something is light years away from the understanding gained from actual mastery and application i don't doubt your ability to make a breakdown and deduce what spinners are doing with 500% slomo, but merely knowing how the pen moves is nothing like being able to perform the combos yourself and even if you have finally mastered the breakdown, that is a mere fraction of what PS is about - refinement, subtlety, fine finger motions, rhythm and pacing changes etc so yeah, your knowledge is probably fine but the true learning i think the poster meant was being able to perform the stuff and refine it ^^ happy training on another note, so that this post isn't off-topic entirely: good luck both participants for R6 :D a13x gets the highest average score each round pretty much, but sutomo was the one who killed the supposedly invincible f2f (at least after wc12, f2f was considered rightly as such) disappointed at the huge number of 'draw' votes this round though for a13x vs ction, would've been interesting to see what would've happened if judges were forced to decide

    You replied only to the parts of my post that did not matter and were offtopic merely for the sake of tying up all ends. And I'm fairly certain I undrrstand difficulty and it's application quite well, I've found what I though the difficulty of tricks were when I was a newbie and which got me into a lot of arguments because "lol you're new you know nothing" turned out to be quite correct. So you're wrong, ou can very well know difficulty without having mastered the trick itself. I'll leave this out as a big "suck it" to anyone who claims I knew less about a combo than them after I broke the entire thing down as a 5 month spinner while most only watched it once. I still stand by my belief that I knew the difficulty of it then, now that I am close to being able to execute all of it. It doesn't take a genius to figure ASS is harder than spiderspin because it has a considerably smaller spinning space. Also you're talking about style and execution, you don't need to be a pro spinner to detect those either. This whole bragging about experience spinning making you more able to understand combos is complete bullshit. A 4 month spinner aware of advanced notation and researched all the tricks would be more than capable of describing intricate and difficult parts of a combo better than a 3 year spinner who knows only basic notation and doesn't do much research. This is because it's impossible to learn all the tricks and linkages in pen spinning and say which are better, so either all spinners know nothing and cannot understand a combo unless they can copy it, or researchers can understand combos. Otherwise we'd never have judges because thry would have to be as good as or better than the spinners to judge them.

    Yeah you sure are right. There cant possibly ever be any hidden meaning in normal text. How stupid of me believing there were such things as stylistic devices in a text that could have any meaning. It is so obvious that only poems can carry deeper meanings. Also my use of the trollface didnt indicate anything since I'm way too stupid for trying to integrate a deeper meaning in a text that is not a poem. /sarcasm off <-- I dont usually use this, but looking at your intellect I qould highly doubt you would get any of the meaning of the text.

    When did UPSB become Linguistics 101?

    Spoiler And when did it become such a shithole? Oh well, we all know who's to blame for that.

    ChainBreak;258250]Yeah you sure are right. There cant possibly ever be any hidden meaning in normal text. How stupid of me believing there were such things as stylistic devices in a text that could have any meaning. It is so obvious that only poems can carry deeper meanings.

And while texts can have specific hidden meanings, the meaning of the posts you write against me are quite obvious and I've pointed it out quite a few times. In fact, I doubt your posts really have a meaning other than to attempt to be annoying now. Your purpose is obviously to try and inconvenience me, which would explain why you try to get the fist comment in on any post I make, consistently. To say that your argument is a straw man is a compliment, you rather ignore everything I say and do not refute my point. So on the scheme of things, all the points unrefuted still stand against you and you've made no real ground. By now, you're not really having much effect on me ChainBreak, and you strayed off topic at your second post.

    Some nice Ad Hominem from my side: You don't know what you are talking about. Neither in linguistics, nor in penspinning. The sheep-makin comment and your post about semantics gave me the rest (Der Rest, jener wurde wieder gegeben)

    Points without any explanation and you know very well they're untrue. On top of which, this has gone heavily off topic, as somehow we've managed to branch out to this, with chainbreak spouting some random garbage that had nothing to do with what I said and then you replying to me pointing that out to him. So yes, a wonderful ad hominem, but even as a fallacy as you have made out, it's weaker than most! I mean, barely an attempt to poison the well at all from my point of view. If you'd like to speak more about my native language and how much I know about penspinning, do add me on skype: eurocracy2 Rather than end up getting infractions or bans, and so that I know you're serious and not out to harbor post likes.

    Why can't he just shut up? ._. :pan: This WT as actually surprised me in many ways. However I must say that I am not a too big A13x fan. Therefore I guess I'll just be rooting for Sutomo. ;) Looking forward to the final round. (sun)

    why are there so many people who dislike a13x's style? I find his spinning way more dynamic, creative, difficult, and interesting than sutomo's. Both amazing spinners, but I think many people are just trying to be different and root for the underdog, so they bash a13x's style.

    Yeah I'm sure that's why people dislike A13X.

    Wow, going through this topic just shows that this WT has brought out the worst in our community. The WT is being taken far more seriously than it should be. Its supposed to be a celebration of a unique talent, not a bashing-fest on the opponents of the spinner youre rooting for, or other people who support them.
