Congratulations to this year's winners, and thanks to all who voted!

[Finn]

Very cool. Recognition deserved.

I think The Source should do this every December.

BUT I believe it would have way more appeal if it wasn't so clearly centered around people who live in NE US.

Is there no way to cast a wider net?

Is there no way to cast a wider net?Everyone on the site had the opportunity to vote. If you don't, how can you complain of a bias to the voting?

[Deep6er]

I'd like to thank everybody who voted for me and a meaningful 'I know where you live to those' who didn't. Also, I suppose a grudging congratulations is in order to Machinus. Even though I've won WAY more than him. :) Nah, he's a great guy and I don't mind losing to him. Although, if we ever play (preferably with some duals on the line), then we can see who comes out on top. Oh yeah, and a congratulations to everyone else who made it. Except for Jesse and Herbig. Those guys suck. I hate them. Herbig's a decent guy and I don't hate him as much as I hate Jesse. Jesse sucks. And is gay. In the 'boy-liking way'. Man, I FUCKING HATE THAT GUY.

At least Jesse has a cool avatar...

No need to get defensive, Adam. The idea was a good one. I did not vote because it would have been pointless. I do not begrudge you your fun.

Q - How do we get less NE bias?
A - Encourage a more geographically diverse pool of voters.

[Bardo]

BUT I believe it would have way more appeal if it wasn't so clearly centered around people who live in NE US.

Since this was a thread for tourney performance and most of the major 1.5 tourneys are held in the NE, it follows that there will be a regional bias.

[Ewokslayer]

Thinking of this in terms of "only tournaments matter" pretty much exlude IBA and people like me.
It sounds like you are declining the nomination and IBA is banned so that excludes him from participating in a sanctioned tournament.
So, I guess Sexy-Rector and me make the team.
Woot.

@ Mr. Nightmare
You spelled my name wrong.

Brian Deifendorf (Ewokslayer) - 6
Should be Diefendorf

First Anusien and now you. Is my name really that much harder to spell than everyone else’s?

[herbig]

Wow, I got a lot of votes. Thanks guys.

And I love you too Gearbear!

[Nightmare]

Is my name really that much harder to spell than everyone else’s?Yes. I'll try to remember that your name starts with 'die.'

[Ewokslayer]

And I love you too Gearbear!

Does that mean he has a magical tatto of gears on his belly?

Do all the other All Stars?

That would be pretty cool.

In a crappy pathetic 80s cartoon sort of way.



Yes. I'll try to remember that your name starts with 'die.'
I just realized how many actual words can be spelled with just the first 3-4 letters of the All Stars' last names. I guess it is fitting that yours starts with Bar. Of course, now all I can think of is skipping out of work early and grabbing a Guinness.

[Bardo]

Sure. Is there really anything on the line here? I thought this was a fun little exercise.

Don't feel bad Brian my last name was misspelled as well. It should be Ahmad.

Humble and Logical?

Those don't seem right in a Magic Forum.

I think you are suppose to respond like:

Now that is the kinda post one expects to see in a Magic Forum.

I don't feel bad at all.
Heck, my cell phone company still can't spell my FIRST name right after like 5 damn years.

[Machinus]

Actually Dave, I've done pretty well at Magic tournaments. I've won multiple pieces of power, drains, etc, and obviously lots of cash and duals. But this isn't about our egos right? I will admit that yours is bigger. You win!

Regarding the SCG duals status for everyone else: Jacob refused to split with me in July (even after I beat him in the swiss), so that puts me five behind Dave for total duals won at SCG. I expect to remedy this problem at the next D4D (I know what Deep6er is going to be playing!). Also, keep your eye on Eric Darland - at only five behind me, he could easily take the lead.

To everyone who voted - I appreciate the gesture.

I'm sorry, when I said I won the most, I was referring to Legacy and in the US. I'm almost positive that I've won the most in the Legacy events of anybody in the US. Sorry, should have cleared that up. Also, drunk face won't be winning anymore. He's lost his surprise factor. Everyone knows he's coming. Anyway, I'll beat you everytime as you're much less likely to go to EVERY D4D.

[Nightmare]

Anyway, I'll beat you everytime as you're much less likely to go to EVERY D4D.It must be nice to live in Virginia. Minus all the Calosso, of course.

[TheInfamousBearAssassin]

Apparently not voting for myself isn't enough to quell the awesomeness that is Jack Elgin. Nonetheless, between getting myself banned and not actually doing much in the year '06 itself, besides play more copies of Loxodon Warhammer at a pro tour than anyone else, I abdicate my mighty and most of all, completely relevant and not in any way meaningless and masteubatory position.


Eric and the Dief are both great guys, so I recommend that they be forced to fight to the death as a tiebreaker.

[Bardo]

Quick, ban me before my good manners become contagious!

[Lego]

Maybe if there were good players outside of NE US, there'd be more of them on the list. Wait, let me rephrase that. Maybe if there were good people outside of NE US, they'd be on the list. :wink:

[Anusien]

I think Bardo has more total tournament wins than the rest of the team combined. And he's written a kick-ass report for each one of them.

[Bardo]

I am indeed the "Scourge of the 8-Man Tournament." :laugh:
