Well then, I guess it's not 'closed' because...

Avi, I love you like my own family and you know that, so you also know that I'm not trying to upset you.

1) If you were truly biased, I would win every Battle Royale...It's okay, you don't have to admit it, we all know it's true :p <-- That means I'm joking, laugh with me, it helps to break up the tension

2) Rather than 'biased', I felt you were a little too lenient a couple of times, and that I wouldn't have been so generous if I were the game master...BUT, I am NOT the game master, this is YOUR game, so I didn't say anything because it's not my place, and honestly it wasn't that big a deal.

3) The reason I spoke out when I did is:

A 'sit-out' isn't supposed to be a penalty...If a person has to be chosen to sit out it's because their team did BETTER than the other teams, and they didn't have as many (or any) deaths...Instead of a penalty, it's a necessary inconvenience to keep things even, and I believed that was why the hit (it IS a hit, a sit-out loses HPs) is shared by everyone, as we all take turns.

To make someone sit out twice, is an undue penalty.

I also believe that if you have to make someone sit out, the choice should be fair, unbiased, and should not benefit someone else...This was why my team didn't submit any consideration for the last sit-out.

You have always handled this perfectly and evenly in the past, so I am confused as to why you would alter your system.

Everyone knew they would choose Dustin, and I was expecting you to tell them that he already took his turn, then they would have chosen Sarah, because she won't follow their agenda either...Which would have been fair, because she hadn't sat out yet.

I guess I was just disappointed that you allowed it...But, like I said, YOU are the game master, you have every right to conduct the game however you want, but the game that I thought I agreed to play was a bit less 'stacked' than this.



You and I always try to do things equanimously, and we also speak up when we feel something is off-kilter...That's what has happened here, I felt this one action was "unfair", not that YOU are...Please don't punish the other players because I made an objection...The remnants of my team are damned good players, they are really into the game, they play LEGITIMATELY, and they play for THEIR team, and no one else's...They are also ready to tear each other apart as soon as they go solo.

If nothing else, at least let us see what happens with all of these new people...It has been extremely interesting so far...In fact, I almost would have felt bad about shooting Straker when (if) the time came ;) ...I have to admit that I have been very impressed.

And let's be honest...I'm dead anyway...I didn't ask my team to protect me, I left it up to them to decide if they wanted to or not...They all know that I'm a target, and they chose to keep their HPs...While I feel I am an asset to their team, I also acknowledge the fact that I would be a daunting solo opponent...My team knows this, too.


If you are upset with me, and you want to respond with something negative, please yell at me privately, or you will completely screw up the 'feel' of this post :p


@Vampenguin: You just HUSH...I have spoken up in other Battle Royales when something was in MY team's favor, but was against YOUR team, if that 'something' seemed unfair...Who isn't "paying attention"?...Fair is fair...Winning or losing doesn't mean shit if it's not legitimate.
