Crazy Suggestion That'll probably get shot down regardless...
What if we restarted the tourney next month? Crazy I know but let's face it... This is looking like the worst GC in history. 2 people are getting free rides to the quarter finals, while another 2 are getting rides to the semis due to no shows. I know it'd be complicated to reset the participants but it'd be worth. I say it should be an Allstar invitational to active reliable battlers.

Most of them are going to dispute this due to their personal experience of the tournament so far.
As for me, it's been a no-show followed by a forfeit and I'm in Round 3. I'm not exactly stimulated thus far.

This had nothing to do with you being butthurt. I was just saying that a majority of the tournament's battlers will have a "let it ride" attitude about it based on their expectations of their own potential victory.
I genuinely don't give much of a shit but it would have been nice to have had a complete tournament with no auto-wins for once.

I knew what you meant. I just know how people can be. Why would anyone want to win in a pitiful tourney like this. LOL the way people bash Talksick for being the worst Champ you'd be right behind him.

It's not like that for everyone lol. I don't have an easy battle in front of me this whole tournament if I keep moving through. Every GC has no shows like this, it wouldn't be the 1st. Recent GC that is, it's the site's demographics; can't really help it.

No, the star power was there, the no shows from fast tourney deadlines killed it. @ Obey

I honestly don't think the dates had anything to do w/ it. Most of the no shows, the people didn't log in during the whole time the tourney was going. RULE, Mayneak both I don't think logged at all. The star power is still there? Dissizit, Bleu, AfterThought, Erupt, ILLoKWENT, Dono, Grizz, Vitty, Row, Anarchist, Punk, Remark, Rant, Fuel, Phe ..Am I missing anyone? It's still a great tournament. I agree the no shows are disappointing but restarting puts everyone's writing and work to shit. I know I've put time into both my verses and it'd suck if they meant shit.

@ GOOD GRIEF Longer tourney deadlines would mean less no shows then i guess. I mean many of us have lives outside of LB plus it would add more excitement as GC is a coveted tourney right? And should b treated as such. ...No rushin GC.

Damn...now thats a bummer. Well...guess we can only hope for better decisions on invites and posting deadlines for the next GC.
