@Van You should make people who have no opponent go against each other, so they actually can be judged. (just match up the videos)
-
Date: Tue, Jan 18 2011 03:10:47

Date: Tue, Jan 18 2011 06:46:10
what? you wanted the results ~4 hrs after you PM'd us? LOL judges are always given about a week to judge... we should have til next tuesday >.>'' not that it will take that long to judge, but i'm just saying, sometimes our schedule may be busy and judges wont' have time to judge @Van In any case, this reminds me... generally, the judges names are never revealed. That way, people bug us about our final decisions and also for us to hurry up. Just a note you should probably make for next time. And please check that all the videos work before sending them in a PM next time too... not that it's hard for me to just find them here, it's just the principle that things should be organized nicely. Granted this is your first time organizing a tourney, so this is just some constructive criticism you should take note of for next time. Edit: And I just finished judging those 3 complete battles, but I think I'll turn them in later in the week... because I'm disliking the fact that people are impatient :) Is this immature of me? Perhaps. But I still think patience is a virtue that people should have.

Date: Tue, Jan 18 2011 22:02:49
I would start to think up of a combo now... u dont know if ur gonna be in the second round or not... And the ppl that KNOWs that ur in the second round, (because ur opponent did not submit a video) especially should have a good combo LOL
-
Date: Tue, Jan 18 2011 22:10:37

@TheAafg Whyd that guy get banned?

Date: Sun, Jan 23 2011 05:56:07
@WhatsOfTheUp1 he made fake accounts and was leaving feedback on them to get his reputation up. He made several fake accounts

Van wrote: Wooow fail But can't he like use that fake account
If his main account is banned, obviously his fake accounts will also be banned. His IP address is banned, so no future accounts can be registered from his computer either. -
Date: Mon, Jan 24 2011 15:04:51
@JC: I saw him online; Wat does banned actually forbid u from doing? And do u know if he is permanently banned?
-
Date: Mon, Jan 24 2011 15:06:15
Wait.wtf? I saw him online too........
-
Date: Mon, Jan 24 2011 16:01:45
When did you see him online? I think there mayhave been some glitches with banning, but I'm pretty sure he got banned permanently. His scam-like behavior started about a day ago, so his ban was pretty recent -- less than a day ago. Banning prevents you from signing on.

Date: Tue, Jan 25 2011 12:54:30
Okayyy so the final judge total Vortechs: 2 votes, xzekle:1 vote Vortechs wins! Tinnepu: 2 votes, Illusion 1 Tinnepu wins! Riley: 3 votes, drgripable: 0 votes Riley wins! Check the first post of the beginners tourney thread (original one) to see ur next match ups

Date: Wed, Jan 26 2011 03:28:23
The only result that got me thinking is Tinnepu vs Illusion, I really thought Illusion was going to win :O. Really amazed by these spinners, Good Luck TheAafg. Riley is looking strong, also Vortechs and blaber54 were amazing too :D Blaber 54 is my prediction ;) Riley is my prediction too.

Maybe it was better to make another thread with Round 2 ;), Since some people would wonder where are videos for ROUND 1 - _ -. Too bad Tinnepu did not submit a video, I wanted to see him vs Riley ;). -

@Escorpio123: well alot of ppl told me not to make a new thread so...:P

Well there always is YouTube :P But some ppl really got mad when I made THIS thread -_- SO I decided to change the title like they advised me LAST time and now ur all complaining that I shouldve made a new thread :huh: ALL U PPL DO IS COMPLAIN :angryfire:
-
Date: Tue, Feb 1 2011 02:08:40
W/e van, remember, it was other people that advised u to not create another thread, lol, not me <_<. It is obvious that making a new one is a easier method on how people would look for the videos of each round. Nvm though, It is your Tourney. Relax.
-
Date: Tue, Feb 1 2011 02:35:47
Well if I did create another thread someone else would have complained that I shouldve uploaded it on the first post; blahblahblah So everyone just STFU and watch the video if u r interested U wanna watch the first round vid, go to YouTube and follow the related links
-
Date: Tue, Feb 1 2011 02:49:54
Holy crap. Riley can do some stuff even I can't do o-o then again I've never really worked on powertricks. But still :o Too bad no video was against him.

guys feedback?
-
Date: Tue, Feb 8 2011 00:45:30
Soooo Blaber54 vs. Roy Blabet54:1 Roy 2
Van vs. Vortechs Van:0 Vortechs: 3Spoiler
Shoeman6: Blaber 54 Was a bit disappointed to have a recycled video, but it was better on all points. JC: While both Blaber and Roy had similar execution and difficulty in their combos, though Blaber perhaps had a slightly higher difficulty, this win goes to Roy for me given his better combo structure. Winner: Roy Awesome: Blaber54 vs Roy; Blaber 54 appears to drops the pen as his finisher, but pulls it into a peace sign, so it isn't as blatant as it would be normally, however I don't feel his higher difficulty justfies such an execution error so my vote goes to RoyTheAafg vs. Sam TheAafg: 2 Sam:1Spoiler
Shoeman6: Vortechs Unfortunately I could not judge Van's combo because of his use of the banned leigun. This move is not acceptable, ever, it's to dangerous, don't ever do that again Van... ( no, but I actually liked it a lot) :] However, Vortechs combo was more appealing, the 2h could have been a bit smoother, and it was a little bit repetitive, but it was a strong combo overall. JC: Van vs. Vortechs A strong win for Vortechs for having more control, difficulty, creativity, and though it was slightly spammy compared to Van’s (though expected since it was a pretty long combo), the other aspects of the combo overcame that issue for me. Winner: Vortechs Awesome: Van vs Vortechs Vortech has an extermly high level combo compared to Van. Its harder, smoother, and shows more control Victor: VortechsRiley vs. Tinnepu Riley wins by default Soo, @Sam, but if u have complaints, tell JC and Awesome because they waited untill the last second to judgeSpoiler
Shoeman6: Sam Nothing special here, but it was much more fluid than Theafg's, plus he had a crowd of people cheering for him. Still, impressive combo for a beginner. JC: Sam vs. TheAafg TheAafg wins by default because Sam’s youtube account was deleted/closed. If the video is still available somewhere, send that to me and I will re-judge this battle. Winner: The Aafg Awesome: TheAafg vs Sam I get a "video is no longer available because the user closed their account error" message on Sams video Victor:null vote (or theaafg, depends on organizers call) -
Date: Tue, Feb 8 2011 00:49:50

If that wasn't a drop your structure is whacked, which would mean I would be using JC's reasoning. Normally you want to end combos with some kind of finisher move, like cont fl ta, busts, or something (This is the weakest part of my spinning, I hate it too) if you did that then there wouldn't have been ambiguity and I would have probably given you the win for higher creativity and difficulty. JC should be able to explain better -
Date: Tue, Feb 8 2011 03:11:59
Man how i wish i could've participated in this tournament.... After my 5 way battle with people, I changed my style a WHOLE BUNCH. I got so many better linkages..... damn. Well, that doesn't matter now. What matters is you guys. Good luck/job to you all! And if i could say so myself, i believe Riley may be the winner of this tournament. Him, or Vortechs.

Well, let's see what the judges say :). After all u did turned it, but on the other hand, knowing that you have a tournament, it is weird just to say that you were not online forever o.O. Need to know what's going on with your video, lol. ;) -
Date: Tue, Feb 8 2011 04:09:21
Ok so im uploading right now. 3 more minutes. P: Sorry for the incident thing. I was trying to think of a new youtube name b/c my old one was random and temporary. so yeah. i deleted it replacing it w/ a new one. sorry judges, D: wooohoo 50th post.

I think it should be up to your opponent whether or not he wants to allow this. Video availability was a personal responsibility in this tournament, and if the video wasn't there to be judged, you can't really argue the other way...

Fuck you to buddy [QUOTE=shoeman6 wrote: I think it should be up to your opponent whether or not he wants to allow this. Video availability was a personal responsibility in this tournament, and if the video wasn't there to be judged, you can't really argue the other way...
He submitted on time, right, and he had it available while we could have judged and made it re-available before the judging time was officially over, I would its fine to judge it. EDIT, opps double post >_< merge them plz -

What? Are you serious? Same thing as what Awesome said, what's with the disrespect? Especially when this is all volunteer work we're doing I am fine with judging Sam's video, and had just did so and sent that in. If you're still pissy about R1 judging results being held back, again...it's not that I was lazy being that I judged it the day I got it, it's that it's ridiculous to expect results 4hrs after you PM the videos out so I turned the results in within a week-- the normal time judges are given on average to judge a tournament. --And you may not think it takes a long time to judge, and it doesn't take thatttt long, but I have other priorities that come first sometimes during a week that may be unusually busy. And to accommodate for that, judges are given a week. Judges aren't given a week because it actually takes a week to judge all those videos. --For example, for R2, I didn't get to judge all week because I go to class at 9am and didn't get back to my room til at least midnight everyday with hours of hw to still do on top of that. That was an unusually busy week, and so I didn't get the chance to judge right away. BUT even then, I still got the results in within a week's time so I don't think there should be any complaints anyway. Try dealing with judges that don't turn in results and don't respond for 3 weeks or a month for a tournament this size. The other judges and I are so under-appreciated and disrespected considering how timely (yes, a week IS timely) we turn our results in. I'm still willing to judge this, but I do think we deserve a bit more respect than the snobby attitude you've displayed on quite a few occasions. -

@Riley FTW. Both have nice linkages and very smooth spinning. Although Riley, if you spinned something more sophisticated that that long white stick or yours (maybe a g3 based Single Sided mod) you might not look so "begginer" although nice job on the hia tua and the last palmspin > fl ta =D

Don't the participants also get a week or more to film a combo? I don't see how Awesome and JC are being disrespectful towards you anyway. -

Guys, chill out. As for Sam, i think he should be re-judged cause its not fair, and everyone should be given a chance to be judged.
-
Date: Tue, Feb 8 2011 19:45:15
Certainly the person who organizes this is busy and certainly the participants are also busy, but I don't understand why you're bringing that up. It's not like we said you're not busy, and it's not like we said that you guys should have less time to organize or film. And TheAafg, Sam will be re-judged, that's not an issue here at all. I just think the judges are treated unfairly and disrespected given that this is volunteer work. I understand everyone is busy and never said someone wasn't busy or that they had too much time compared to what we, as judges, get. Regardless of that though, to call us lazy? That's too far from the truth.

Ok I apologize for Van. We are sorry, we won't bother you about the judging again. We are just im-patient you know. You guys just continue to judge, and take your time. We are just extremely curious, ignore us if we say something bad. -

This is bad, the organizer of both tournaments just quit 'cause of reasons, but dang, to organize a tourney is a big job but then again, why organizing it if you know that you won't be able to do it or that you know that you are going to get sentimental easily - _ -.

real awkward. I would like to emphasize JC's VOLUNTEER POINT he doesn't have to do this he just does... I respect JC, and don't disrespect him. Judges have a life too, 1 week to judge is fair. your vid should be up for at least a week, or up for DL On a different note: I really like this idea of a noob tourney. make this a regular thing??? every half year??? I would definitely volunteer to organize, but I cannot judge... and last thing, I'm rooting for Vortechs over Riley. They are both fantastic spinners though. crazy....

He is already doing enough <_< just chill man he has more stuff to do then us. He is not a 14 year old. He has shit to do. We should be glad that a experienced spinner like him is even judging. We should be glad we have the chance to be judged by him. I am not hating on you or anything but just respect the judges. -Yes, i agree with you we should have this tournament as a regular thing. I would gladly help organize it. -

Okay thanks. I actually have been planning a combo for the past 2 weeks, I just haven't had any time to film. Yesterday, and Friday, I filmed for six hours and only got one complete clip, it's not even close to good. So that's why I asked if it there was that extra day. Sorry. -

Sad news; there will be no semi-finals match, because Roy dropped out, and Sam did not submit a video So Riley vs Vortechs is the finals automatically :( @Vortechs I didn't bother creating a new thread for this... The videos; Riley Vortechs

Well, I'm not sure, but does SAm have until 11:59 pm, in Pacific time? Because that's where he lives, which would give him an extra three hours. If not, good luck Vortechs! -

IMO, Riley has won this tournament. Great job everybody

Does that mean I am going to be judged? Even though the video was late, in your time zone?
-
Date: Tue, Feb 15 2011 22:48:15
Well it was my fault for forgetting to write 11:59 EST, and for u guys, it was actually on time; So I guess I'll have to accept Sam's video
