if you want to extrapolate lines out of context to put in a bad light, go ahead and do it, im not going to stop you from doing so, you are doing it for the likes and for the drama and i respect that
but i just want you to know that those lines came in response to abr constant mocking and provoking, with the tournament directors doing absolutely nothing. here i got a few nice examples of what im talking about
★ABR: if ur getting tired of me trying to win i can go back to switching
★ABR: cuz uk thats what i do
★ABR: stall to annoy u
★ABR: ok time to sit another 2 hours
★ABR: hope u miss work or w/e u do
I don't really care that much about the whole situation (though I did come on smogtours every 40-50 minutes or so to check how the battle was progressing until 5 am), but since you seemed fully aware of being in a losing position, and having plans for today, why didn't you make use of the wonderful feature that is the forfeit button. also known as "la x rossa in alto a destra"?
it would have saved you some hours of agony
or is your ego too hard to swallow?
he didnt really care but he came on smogtours every 40 minutes to check the battke. very logical
he assumes i was fully aware of being in a losing position when ive never said that, and even then, being in a losing position isnt enough of a justification to forfeit a game. ive won tons of games where i was in a much more difficult situation but it didnt prevent me from ending up as the final the winner, it happened 2 years ago against bloo and it happened last year against cosine.
i also couldnt predict the battle would last for so long. i couldnt predict my opponent would start using timezones at his advantage and make the battle last forever and i couldnt predict tournament directors would do absolutely nothing about it despite the evident lack of sportmanship. if you have a win condition, you use it before turn 400, as someone said in this thread, and not at turn 1200 or whatever it was.
but anyway this post coming from the same guy whos still mad over me not wanting him on the italian team last year after he went 0-3 in 2015, it doesnt really hurt me. remember kids, when you lose, all the haters come back altogether.
i just used the word 'lose', and well id like to say something more about it.
i may be the loser of the battle. i most certainly am. but i dont think im the only loser from yesterdays game.
i think abr is a loser too for showing everyone how much pitiful his life is. you dont believe abr was intentionally trying to extend the game as long as he possibly could, and he was just doing it for the memes? well i think you should. but if you dont believe that, then you should be able to tell me why he didnt try to win with the sd skarmory at turn 200 instead of doing it at turn 1200. he pretty much sacrificed 6 hrs of his time just for the memes. i respect that a lot. it takes a lot of dedication. i dont know many people who would do that, especially with no gain. putting an online videogame ahead of your irl relationship, i will always respect that. or maybe he just didnt have anything better to do than sitting in front of his laptop for 7 hours. thats also an option
but the real loser from yesterday, it was neither me nor abr. it was you. it was the spectators. just wanted to get that out.
like i said something went wrong during my preparation for this olt, i probably should have asked myself some questions after i struggled to make playoffs for the 1st time ever, instead i just ignored this warning. ill be gone for a while but u can bet ill come back in great style
