    not sure yet, i think i said 1 week before start of competition

    good luck PSH, fighting KPSA, JEB, GPC back-to-back-to-back is not easy

  5. Pudels Kern
    Date: Sun, Dec 13 2009 12:59:27

    Oh shit, the GPC team is going to be a last minute decision again.

    I really hope we are going to see more eploration of new things instead of refinement of the stuff from WT unlike Zombo said.

    Another thing about the judging: The judges just have to give a vote for one spinner or the other and a short justification? So the criteria that are mentioned in the rules can be ignored? This will make the judgung more arbitrary again imo.

  6. Mats
    Date: Sun, Dec 13 2009 14:19:33

    PSH - Destroyed. Doesn't look like a good group for GPC to be deciding on participants last minute for!

    no they are not ignored becuase they must be used to justify your vote. also what makes judging poor is when a person is doing it alone. because often the person will get bored doing it and start rushing it. if people have to actually explain to someone else (in their commitee) their opinion, then they must have first prepared a good evaluation of the combos.

    also judging from every community is public -> you can't hide your vote.

    will reveal group B as soon as I get HKPSA

  19. Wind
    Date: Tue, Jan 5 2010 04:53:26

    PSH - line up is disappointing. Strong but I expect much better. though I can't say much since I only seen half of the team's spinning.

    KPSA - I predict that they well do very good. A very strong team from what it looks like.

    JEB - JEB... oh joy. Strong team but where's Areso? D: I kinda expect more though. Star spinners busy with school again? Everyone in the qualification video ditched T_T besides ponkotu! Go ponkotu!

    GPC - will dominate. nuff said.

  20. CaptainGolfBall
    Date: Tue, Jan 5 2010 05:03:41

    so I am kinda a noob in this area of Pen Spinning.

    Does UPSB ever enter the world cup? We do right, just we havent submitted our roster of people or whatever?

    no we didn't qualify, we finished 9th, only top 8 qualify.

    @wind: areso signed up, but wasn't considered good enough to be in their team I guess. NM I THINK HE PULLED OUT

  22. G.D.A.R
    Date: Wed, Jan 6 2010 09:26:13

    well don't underestimate JEB... this new team of JEB is not weak at all. I've seen most of them spinning. but still maybe it's not good enough to dominate I'm afraid sad.gif GPC and KPSA have more chances
    group A is gonna be interesting.

    and for group B I think THPSC will dominate if there're supawit and peem in the team.

  23. Raem
    Date: Wed, Jan 6 2010 09:54:03

    Yes they have. As I remember, Their team is:


    Spoiler:

    Supawit127
    Spinnerpeem
    BaiMai
    Dongza
    8
    TheLegend

    iirc THPSC is supawit127, dongza, tonnam, 3D, gzsakuraz (forgot last member). (NB: but this info was from 2 or 3 weeks, ago, so it may have changed)

    spinnerpeem is not in THPSC team, he said he wanted to give other spinners a chance to represent THPSC

    Wow I can't believe all the people in the JEB collab dropped out but ponkotu >.> That was the main reason why I wanted to watch the world cup.
    Second reason was to see UPSB annnnnnd.

    Oh well, it should still be entertaining as always.

    I'm glad fire@fox is in it though, I was kinda sad when I didn't see him in the collab.

    Wow... Group 2 is going to be an epic battle.. o_o
    Go TWPS

  30. Zombo
    Date: Fri, Jan 8 2010 22:56:54

    group A: I like the korean team a lot
    group B: TWPS will be the surprise of the tournament, dark horse.

  31. Frip
    Date: Sat, Jan 9 2010 00:10:51

    I have this feeling BPSC will go far.

    Group 1: JEB and GPC

    Group 2: THPSC and BPSC

    then BPSC beats JEB and loses to THPSC in finals


    amirite

  32. taichi1082
    Date: Sat, Jan 9 2010 01:44:59

    PSH is really disappointing. - No AcidDNA, No 12ve, No Answer... CNStar only as a manager.
    JEB is... well, different as it was often pointed out before. I can't wait to see combos from HAL and Sister_R though. I guess they are going to win this tournament.
    I hope the rumors about Peem and Supawit aren't true. Would really like to see them in the tournament.

  33. i.suk.at.everything
    Date: Sat, Jan 9 2010 03:47:09

    spinnerpeem and supawit are in WC yay biggrin.gif but it seems PSH didn't put their best in =/

    i think group 1 winners will be KPSA, JEB. and group 2 winners will be THPSC, TWPS (or BPSC).

    then THPSC vs JEB, THPSC win...

  34. Wind
    Date: Sat, Jan 9 2010 06:18:08

    hmm my predictions...

    First round:

    1. PSH VS KPSA (KPSA)
    2. JEB VS GPC (GPC)

    3. TWPS VS HKPSA (this is a tough one but I say TWPS)
    4. THPSC VS BPSC (THPSC)

    Second round:

    5. PSH VS JEB (JEB)
    6. KPSA VS GPC (GPC)

    7. TWPS VS THPSC (TWPS biggrin.gif lol jk. Most likely THPSC but can't be certain.)
    8. HKPSA VS BPSC (???)

    Third round:

    9. PSH VS GPC (GPC)
    10. KPSA VS JEB (KPSA)

    11. TWPS VS BPSC (TWPS)
    12. HKPSA VS THPSC (THPSC)

    Date: Sat, Jan 9 2010 13:37:01

    imo, group A: JEB and GPC
    group B: TWPS and THPSC
    for the knock-out rounds, THPSC gonna crush all 3 other teams

    although I prefer JEB to win more sad.gif THPSC is soooo strong sad.gif

    I agree with this entirely.
    TWPS is a going to be an interesting team this year.

    hmm darcy is actually a really good spinner. It's just his style is fast and jerky that you can barely see the tricks unless put in slow mo.
    Though I wish Rex can compete instead of him but that would be kind of selfish coming from me >_<

  48. Zombo
    Date: Tue, Jan 12 2010 03:55:57

    darcy is obviously brought in as a theme specialist (speed)

    like I said, TWPS will surprise ppl this year.
