I would find a breakdown of decks that did well at States pretty interesting, personally. I just couldn't figure out how to split the posts into a new topic within the mod panel.
I think you're the one being a little dramatic here, Jerry. Nobody else took issue because it isn't really that important to most people, and is only a minor inconvenience. The outcome is growth for the site for those of us who care about that, which is actually just good for everyone, in or out of the clan.
If we were as big as MTGS I probably wouldn't give a shit whatsoever because the forums would populate themselves, but unless we put some effort into getting to that point we're just going to continue to be a couple dozen dudes on the internet intelectually circlejerking one
another.
States Top 8's for this past weekend (those under the auspices of Glenn Goddard) are all posted as received on
http://www.sleeveup.com/. As to stats across the whole sample...I got nothin' more sophisticated to suggested than counting the old-fashioned way.
As to my statements, Alex, the folks in this clan that have been here from the start can tell you that I have no qualms about calling things exactly as I see them and about setting boundaries. Yes, we want to produce quality content and draw members, but our clan thread is whatever we choose to let it be. We left Sally because people got butthurt over our expressing ourselves as we chose and saying what we could and could not talk about. You are stepping over a line in trying to badger us into doing what you want. Yet again, I am all for better organization, but leave THIS thread and THIS forum the fuck alone. It's the tree house, man...we don't want to pick up our socks,
thank you...and if we want to engage in mental masturbation, we can choose to do that, too.
