I'm not saying iGenesis is right, but try to imagine.
Put things in his shoes. You got 195300 points, perfect score. You got two choices on a final pick, either play it safe with a straight, or go for the win. A straight pick would have cashed him in big, but wouldn't have been enough for the win. He took a risk, he was brave, he was bold.
He wasn't the only one. I'm not naming any names, but there were a lot of people who lost their whole bracket, it sucks, but try to give a little sympathy.
iGenesis, you're totally not dealing with this right. It's a learning experience; it's not fair, but a lot of games throw in curve balls. Shake it off, and cash in big next contest.

Lol, nope. I didn't score anywhere near perfect in the battle. I'm just having one of those days where I feel like being a nice guy.
I get that and I do think the rule change was bogus. I'd feel bad for him if he hadn't spanmed the board with 4 or 5 different whining topics. It's like Extha last year except not entertaining and just sad.

Pretty much this; I get that what happened sucks (it happened to me too), but he's obsessing over it way too much, and had been obsessing over the contest generally for the past few weeks.

This is karma. Very, very, very funny karma.
^ His entire existence on this board consists of repeatedly making troll topics and trying to hijack threads by attacking Pokémon, a known favorite among many board members. Not to mention his antics on other boards.
As an unrelated message, I'd like to point out that my alt got 26th in the contest, but it shows the universal account name, not the GameFAQs name. That's really, really lame.

man what. everyone was attracted to lola bunny back in the day.
also i don't feel pity to people who want to throw a pity party on themselves for making a choice. if he wanted to play it safe, he could've. if he wanted to gamble, he had choices, and he made the wrong one. he was under no obligation to do so and predicted wrong. he's got no room to complain because he picked that. don't particularly care about the rest of the stuff beyond the fact that if you make a choice and it blows up in your face, you man up and deal with it. which in this case is basically shrugging it off really.

From: FashnQueenEtna | #033 Are people so senile that they forgot a totally minor character in a movie that most of us probably saw multiple times?
I actually forgot a lot crap in that movie. Like the monster actually getting their abilities from other NBA players, and those players were actually in the movie.
honestly haven't seen the movie in so long that it's kinda 'eh.' i just remember being a kid and being happy whenever she showed up on screen there, before rooting for bugs as he got kissed.
i mean to be fair they played her up as a sex symbol within the movie, so yeah. she was totally sex appeal in the show. it's not to the level of like Chetara from Thundercats or something (who never even made herself a sex symbol and was just hot), but yeah.
