As much as I don't like quoting myself, let me correct you as usual:

All the teams are guaranteed a chance you say? Really? Last time I checked the official NCAA tournament has 65 slots. Every team? Perhaps you're referring to the conference tournaments which, to my knowledge, do have every team involved. But do recall that those tournaments have X amount of slots and thus fill them with X amount of teams. Doesn't quite fit what we're talking about.

If UNers came to the monthly more than once, they'd know how it works, just like classicians. Familiarity with the system is not something we can compensate. What we can compensate is explaining how our system works (8 location spars w/ first two sparring, and 8 summon spars w/ first two pmers sparring.) If they can't figure out how to try and gain an edge to be first, thats their problem. Besides, WHY THE **** ARE YOU CATERING THE FOREIGNERS? It's called the Classic Monthly Spar Tournament for a reason. It's about finding the best sparrer on classic. The people that have done it before will have an edge. It's called being a pro. The people who play on the server will have an edge. It's called home field advantage. If a classician has competed in our tournament before, why the hell should we penalize him for being a bit quicker? It's not his fault he knows whats going on. Don't try to penalize experience by making our server "foreigner friendly". If a classician is able to get into more spars than a UNer, thats not his ****ing fault. It's the fault of the UNer for not trying harder. If you want in our tournament, you got to earn it. We can't just give a free pass to people from other servers just for a public relations bonus. Hell no. We go with what works. This system has worked for years and has never had any major problems until recently when some UN cry babies weren't fast enough on a foreign server. Thats not OUR problem, its theirs. They didn't get in because they were new here and only came for a one time visit. They didn't have the experience. They sure as hell didn't have the homefield advantage. Why are you trying to cater to these cry babies? Because you have a history on UN? Idk man. You're raising so much hell over this going to night and storm and ****. We've never had a problem before.
Look dude. We host 8 summon spars. That means EVERYONE has EIGHT mother ****ing chances to get in our tournament REGARDLESS of what server they come from. If they're too ****ing slow to pm faster, especially in the later spars (less ppl pming,) thats their own ****ing fault. We've done it this way for years and we're not changing it because it WORKS. Simple as that. Everyone has the same ****ing eight chances and you can't ****ing deny that.
Phew. Ranting over, unless mystic decides to ignore the facts about the same number of chances, which seems highly likely based on past arguments.
