    dude, there's even less ppl in the summer. everybody's gone on vacations at some point. every summer there's always at least one thread saying there's no activity on the board or whatever. Right now is the perfect time the ppl are most active.

    Pen Spinning is a hobby closely associated with school, when school is off, ppl stop spinning.

    Yeah, I remember mentioning that earlier. WT would be better at a time when spinners have more time. Also gives them something to do in the summer.

    Yet at the same time, we have nearly all of JEB eliminated because most of their pros are busy with school.

    And I spin more during summer. I've spun less and less since school started. I attract way too much attention when I spin now, thus I spin very little in class.

    well, thats too bad for jeb ppl. and possibly us but i think its going overboard just to schedule the tourney based on jeb pros schedules

    and as for spinning during summer, it varies from ppl to ppl

    for a long tournament like this, you need a huge block of time where you know for sure ppl are not leaving anywhere.

    during the summer, almost everybody go on a trip for a few weeks. This means most ppl can't participate, cuz that means they might have to miss one round along they way, so they cant even enter.

    you would need people who are at home for the whole summer... there's not that many.

    during school, ppl can't leave cuz they have school, so at least you know they're home all the time.

    I dont dont agree with many of that results mellow.gif


    Meteor should have won. Well A13x had difficult conts, but overall Metoer just had a better Combo structure, more Style and more Innovation.

    I also dont agree with the loss of Neophine: Katix wasn't too good, but that my subjective opinnion.

    And I'm suprised of seeing Skonix winning: His Style is awesome, but the Combo wasn't really good: simple ending and not innovative, i saw him better at FPSB tournament.Rafe with cool Illusions/Isolations O.o

    I wish that 3shine would have won: Spinnerpeems Combo was for me just Spam to prepare for a wtf-ending


    All in all no good Round, but I'm happy about seeing Baoo and Skonix in Round 2 rolleyes.gif

    well its OK but its still less time than starting in spring

    because in spring you have

    january to may = 5 months

    in fall you only have

    september to start of december = 4, after that they are some ppl who go on vacation for christmas, although there are not many

    Im satisfied with the results. 6 out of the 7 spinners i wanted to win actually won (charlie being the one tht lost sad.gif)

    Not surprised that a lot of jeb spinners didnt make it.

    Not surprised 12ve lost, s777 had more difficulty while 12ve was all flash. I still <3 12ve's combo.

    Still rooting for:

    Fratleym
    Rarka
    Eriror
    Minwoo
    s777
    Spinnerpeem

    I've been expecting that results would be a little bit other, but I can agree with these ones happy.gif

    It's a big disadvantage of WT that in the next round there are less spinners in every next round huh.gif 'cos I really wanna see more combos from Rex, 12ve, x1213 and Meteor dry.gif They were awesome (as always happy.gif ), but they have very strong opponents in this round mellow.gif

    But WT '09 go on!!! laugh.gif
    I'm waiting for much more great combos from Spinnerpeem, s777, BaoO, Vic, ChauTran, Answer, Rarka...

    I hold in high respect Eriror, Fratleym, Minwoo... They are amazing pro spinners but I'm really not delighted with their styles... unsure.gif

    round 1 details: http://www.alexsimpsononline.com/images/results.txt

    before anyone complains "WHY HAS A LOWER SCORE THAN IN ANOTHER BATTLE?!"

    please remember that only the RELATIVE score matters, that is the score of one against another one in the same match is important.

    this is because it's very difficult for a judge to remember all 64 videos in his head and their ranking is impossible, so it's very easy to give someone in a match a higher score than someone else in another match. They would have to go through all the scores and readjust all the matches so that every 64 videos can ranked in order.

    having 1vs1 matches essentially simplify the process for judges in that they have to compare one video vs another video only, and not all 64 at once, which is why absolute scores are meaningless in this case.

    if you're going to complain about the scores make sure you keep this in mind.

    the only interesting fact in these details is by how much someone lost in his respective battle, that's all.

    highest scorer of the round and all that stuff doesn't mean much.
