[quote name='Beef' post='1551252' date='Apr 22 2008, 03:10 PM']You said it, we dont control the rules so we should stop trying to control the tournaments. Let the person with the most abusive list win. If you dont like it take the same list as him/her. Tournamenst should apeal to hardcore gamers and non hardcore gamers alike I agree but the ones who are not hardcore should not cry about it when they get thrashed. Its like saying everybody should be able to play in the NFL. Fine but when you get people who are crap and they get a leg broken they should not moan about it. If you play against the hard core you should except the fact you might lose.
Beef I've got to applaud you on this statement, it brought a smile to my face and it's actually won me around to your way of thinking. Tournaments are there to be won, plain and simple and as you say, if you play with the big boys then you've gotta be prepared for the consequences.

It interesting that the hobby uis almost ideal for a husband, but poor for a boyfriend.
Yep... The statement above is correct.
I quit the GW hobby, found a girlfriend, got married, and now back in the hobby again... GW hobby is not conducive to girlfriends unless you have something else to offer...

Is Deep Striking when she has a blindfold on, or when she's asleep?
