That's true, but where did you ever get the idea not to compete just because you are good?

What's that all about, why? What sense does it make, tell me just one actual reason, please?


Wouldn't it better if we every time had a winner like you, a true champion, so we all can learn?

"I still don't feel comfortable claiming the #1 spot in a game I myself chose that I already know I'm good at."

"I didn't make the run I recorded to win the competition though"

emphatic, is this an official submission?

Why are you even asking him? So your score looks better?

He submitted his score with that video, and that's perfectly valid entry according to rules.


You making the whole situation awkward. In one hand winning is not important in "friendly" competition, whatever is that supposed to mean, but on the other hand winning is important enough to disqualify true champion so that losers can feel better about their pathetic scores and enjoy their false rankings where victory is not won but given, huh?!  


Where did anyone ever see any team let the other win just becasue they won the last time so it's "fair" the other team wins the next time? How does that make it interesting for anyone and what in the world is "friendly" about it? What sense does it make?

Do you have a single reason WHY would you even suggest someone's entry be disqualified just becasue they are very good in this game?

WHY would you mind if winner could choose the next game every time, what is "not friendly" about it, can you name any ACTUAL REASON?

What is the point of competition where winning is discouraged and being good is not welcome?

You still don't get it do you?

This is a friendly thread about playing games and having fun, not about arguing, not about techincal information or anything else - if you want to do any of that, make another thread!

Its about playing and banter about playing, please don't crap all over the next thread.

Next game please!

torino:
You are not getting it, little troll, and you never will unless you actually address the point in my question:


- What EXACTLY is "not friendly" about competition where winning is encouraged and being good is actually welcome?

- WHY would winner not choose the next game every time, what is "not friendly" about it, is there any ACTUAL REASON?
