Chain Draft (Main Thread)
- Thread starter Edgar Allan Pillow
- Start date
Nearly choked on my sandwich reading that
Starting now...
Wait! It's up already! GS did it about half an hour ago! Sorry mate
Kool. Just clicked on alerts and came here directly. All fine then.
Got a writeup sent there. Would still prefer a 6pm start if possible tomorrow @Edgar Allan Pillow @The Stain, would mean i'd make it on at the start and the end
6pm GMT? About 2pm my time. I can do that. Hope Stain is OK with that!
Sure thing.
Write up, Stain?
I'll send it when i get home.
Got both write ups' starting game in about 45 mins, should be around 6pm GMT.
I can't send it to you immediately. I may be able to do so in several hours.
Can somebody give an update on the breakdown in the Anto/Diarm game thread?
Anto wasn't a fan of diarm and his comments he thought were bs and downplaying the difference in quality between nordahl and campbell/Neville etc.
Said he could have the win and this is why he didn't take part in drafts anymore because people were just talking smack about players and not being truthful.
Asked for a ban.
They were both being obnoxious to each other and it broke down little by little
Obnoxious?They were both being obnoxious to each other and it broke down little by little
So Antohan got Antohand by Diarm and requested for his own ban? Wasn't he caught cheating? Thought that was why he asked for the ban. But it seems like he's unbanned already?Anto wasn't a fan of diarm and his comments he thought were bs and downplaying the difference in quality between nordahl and campbell/Neville etc.

I don't know where people get this ban thing from. He clearly isn't banned.
What he told me was that he was going on vacation.

You can't out-anto anto without being obnoxiousObnoxious?
I didn't say he was banned. .. just that he asked for one
Ah, I see. Well, I don't know anything about that. Seems he wasn't asking too adamantly, at any rate. Heat of the moment and all that.
Oh I don't put much stock into what people say in drafts. You get invested in your team and players, try and get your points across and it's frustrating when you feel things are falling on deaf ears, or you feel people are purposely being obtuse.
All water under the bridge...or at least it should be. This draft in particular seems to be bringing out the anger in people
typical of an @Edgar Allan Pillow creation 
I protest that! Have been the definition of chill.Oh I don't put much stock into what people say in drafts. You get invested in your team and players, try and get your points across and it's frustrating when you feel things are falling on deaf ears, or you feel people are purposely being obtuse.

Sent. When are you planning to start the game ?
There was a cross against him name which would suggest he was banned for some time.
Typical Anto tantrum when people don't see things his way.
- Openly admits to using dishonest arguments in past drafts, but throws his toys out of the pram when he thinks anyone else is doing the same (which is whenever anyone disagree with him).
- Tries every dirty trick in the book to win a game, including PM'ing members to vote, then claims he never cared in the first place.
- "Congratulates" his opponent at the end by saying Diarm "clearly wanted it badly" and he anyway had no interest in carrying on.
Amazed so many on here still humour him. Some good insight aside, he always gets too invested in these drafts and ends up going off the deep end more often than not.
We need an Anto vs Berbasloth draft game: it would break the internet!
On the plus side, the passion and meltdowns are great viewing for the neutral.
Yup. A shame, when he manages to remain unbiased as a voter he's a great asset but even as a voter he often takes side or goes way too far and spams 50 posts about why he's right and you're wrong. I stopped playing these drafts after his stunt in the British/Irish draft and after his ban I was actually looking forward to playing these again, but it turns out he isn't banned.
I know there are people who love the drama and complete bullshit he adds, but I'm not one of them. Voting against people to create drama - then blame them - then admit to it. Constant personal insults. Spamming the match threads with one sided arguments. Not to mention the last game which seemed to have followed the same route. Not my cup of tea at all.
C'mon lads, this is just a fun exercise at the end of the day.

Did we have any other draft where 2 players had meltdown quits?The first auction draft was way way worse.
Polaroid's? Yeah, these 'first time' drafts are quite a nuisance to run. Fun, yet a nuisance for the mods!
That's true. Might sound like I'm complaining but it's great entertainment. Though I can understand why it might drive away potential participants who can't be bothered to deal with all the drama.
I blame @diarm for being obnoxious
Just kidding
If we are going to play the blame game, I blame @green_smiley who started that particular match thread. All threads I started went smoothly. Just kidding too!
QF 4 game thread is up!
