It's odd that Sabas' team is called the "tall firs", and only one position features a player taller than mine.

Also, I'm very tempted to edit your post and screw with the team names and pictures...

Seriously, it's taking a lot of restraint.

I, on the other hand, have every intention of judging.

Get your writeups up, people!

+1

Yeah GMs clean up your BS and keep your propaganda to yourself. Your not going to be able to convince me that your PG can get 10rpg.

^Agreed...only three write-ups in is dragging this out hardcore. I'm already going to be writing up for two games at once soon here :)

I'd like to register my amusement that Cellar apologizes for the length of a writeup that is dwarfed by the first PORTION of one of Tmac's writeups in the previous game.

haha, I wish I was english-speaking native. well said. after all these great writeups in the first round I expected everyone to bring their A game, but can't say it's a lot more than C so far. btw. Black Ice vs Tmac matchups is AMAZING :o

I've gotten a LOT of complaints in the past about the length of my write-ups...I'm making a conscious effort to shorten them up because of this.

You can keep the length and do what I did: put hot pictures of hot girls in between segments and nobody will complain about how long it is.

EDIT: Seriously, though, I think writeups would be a lot less tedious if they were less stream of consciousness and more organized. You can always say more during a rebuttal. I know when I feel like I've won I write less, because the points speak for themselves.

A note on rebuttals:

I'm only allowing one day after the second writeup is posted. After that point, I reserve to right to judge.

So what you're saying is TMAC's already lost?
