Well I have a cnc topic up that hasnt really received any cnc at all.
Some of the nicer regs have but there are a bunch of people I see just look at the topic and walk away.


Still don't think any of the mentors care about fg lol, so I don't think that is the reason.

I was under the impression that he gave you the prize fg but the tournament was still in play.
And I honestly cant see some of the mentors actually helping without " pixelated incentive "
Sane and I were using the PM system for all things regarding this whole thing.
Which is why I was angry about nero's comment about the most active topic.


with all due respect, you haven't been here long enough to understand.
We have had countless activities that regulars said " oh yeah sure sounds fun! I'll join!" and they never posted anything regarding it again.
None of the mentors care about fg what-so-ever. I'm almost completely sure of that.

a fine example of how lazy we are in this section.
we know whats wrong with them or what right.
but wasting out precious 10 seconds to type is completely to demanding.
I know, I do it myself.

I actually think you are right...
idk what I am trying to say anymore.
Been a roller coaster ride of emotions in the last 10 minutes.
I just thought some of the mentors wouldnt help without the proper motivation.
I may be wrong :/
I thought they were gonna stop teaching based on some of the comments I saw after his announcement.

You're right.
I was only here for the signature weeks that TRM was putting out.
And I loved those, I participated like crazy.
I take any chance I can to learn from some of the greats in this section.
I just thought that this was all gonna stop..

You are wrong which is fine, the reason the uproar was there is it kinda felt like a slap in the face to everyone's hard work, at least to me and the few others I spoke to about it.


But it sounds like nero put his foot in his mouth which is no biggie it happens, don't think anything has changed :P .

I was angry because I thought the tournament was over seeing as his announcement said the fg prize was rewarded although there was no tournament at all.
I just felt like I got robbed on time to learn more.
I feel like an asshole :cry:

we piss eachother off all the time.
But were like a big clinically insane family. We can hate eachother but, were stuck together.
most of us have literally known each-other for several years

I'm kinda on the same boat as Reload, I've made 2 tags but never got any pm's or new assignments. So I guess I'm left in the dark as well ^^

i did not assume anything
i did not award fg to anyone

the point of this is to encourage learning and teaching, the tournament was icing on the cake - it's not supposed to be the focus, and you all seem to be missing the point

@reload, you gave me 100fg out of the 2240 that i have received for this event, and yet you're the only one who seems to care about it

@lazydazy, i THOUGHT i posted that i'd be busy for 3 days, but apparently i only told vengance. furthermore you were absent during my first group lesson and did not ever PM me your contact info.

basically, you're all missing the point of this event.

i want you all to learn from everyone
and i want everyone to teach everyone


making this into a contest was just a spark to ignite incentive in this subforum, but apparently people are just interested in who wins and who loses.

trm and odin have both made large and in-depth blanket guides on basic tags and principles, and i myself have made three tutorials, and coached various come-and-go posters on a personal and private level.

it's not about the fg, it's not about the contest

fucking HELP people instead of bickering and flaming and arguing.

fuck
