Petition to move "Best In ________" threads to spam.

[TugBoat]

After many suggestions to hold friendly tournaments or duels, the owners of these threads insist on simply placing people into spots or putting up bullshit popularity polls for them.

All these posts do is cause people to troll and isn't constructive community discussion.

I think they should be moved to Spam where they belong.

Tugboat mad he's not getting mentioned in the Best of States thread.

The basis of your argument relies on the fact that over half of the community discussion is constructive. In that case, this board would be empty, save for maybe 5 active threads and 10 dead ones.

Also Life is kicking your ass in that poll

I think that the "Best In" threads are particular unconstructive when the people running them ignore the fact that the two people up for a vote have both agreed to a duel. It's an obvious troll

And you think any other thread that gets posted here has more merit? Which ones and how.

This got moved to spam

Rules:
Being the best player does not mean being the best dueler.
The best player is determined based on the perception of the community, based on battlefield presence, based on "holy shit I wish I had more athletics so I could outrun this badass motherfucker", based on awareness and adaptation, based on "if this guy is supporting his team I will have a hard time killing anyone this round", based on being so good (not annoying!) he/she is making people GTX.

In short: based on being the baddest and meanest sunuvabitch out there that everyone wants on their team and no one wants to fight!

That being said: duels can be used to convince the audience, but are not a deciding factor.

gf Tug and gj cmp!
