All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

I guess I was premature in that assessment. However, I feel the need to explain.
In my assessment, LOG deserved to win because his post was original and creative. It stood out from everything else in the tournament, which was a collection of references to bodily functions or sex acts (sometimes both, and frequently accented with the use of swear words). His idea was original.
That said, I forgot that LOG was fat and lazy, so he sat on his laurels and mailed in the rest of the tournament. He shot his wad with his first effort, and wasn't capable of following it up. That gave you your opening.
Your follow-up was clever and funny, but wasn't original. You probably don't think of the MySpace thing, in my assessment, unless LOG comes out with the EBay idea first. I just don't see you as capable of that kind of original idea, however there is something to be said for copying someone else's idea and doing it well. However, your MySpace thing was just LOG's Ebay ad with your name at the top. Basically, you just stole his homework, IMO.
The other factor is that LOG is something of a Geek. He isn't going to hold up as well against your popular support, as you have more charisma and appeal. You automatically are going to hold favor with the lowest-common-denominator (see Lateral, Forward), wanna-be adults (kini) and just general fawn on the popular guy types (S11). I didn't mention Phil, who I'm not even sure how to classify, but I know will support you like you were his sister. You had those kinds of votes locked up before the thing began.
Thus, in the end, it led to your victory. Granted, a tainted victory, but I'll give you your props. I'm not sure how you can live with it, but I guess you probably know the truth even if you are too insecure to admit it.
I do want to give props to everyone who participated in the tournament. They are the ones that put themselves out there unlike myself who just sat on the sidelines and watched. I'm sure they did far better than I could have, for I'm not very good at insulting people.

Can you repost this in the Reader's Digest version?

The myspace thing was planned long before the ebay add, a few people knew about it actually. The ebay add was actually something I considered but truthfully I didnt think it would come off that funny. However LOG managed to make it so.
Truth be told LOG's "fanclub" is far larger then mine, even after the myspace thing I figured he still had it in the bag. Guys like you, thurm.....etc will always vote for log no matter the circumstance.
Honestly Im just glad people had fun with it, this years finals were better then any in the past imo.
