Winterbrah Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Almost every ex staff member I can think of has made some reaaally shitty calls in past tournaments, no need to still be mad over it Orangeslash and Strych 2 Link to comment
Emlee Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I am not disagreeing with you. He was especially bad regardless, imo. Don't forget that you don't get to see (almost) everything a staff member does unless you're staff. Link to comment

Plague Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Almost every ex staff member I can think of has made some reaaally shitty calls in past tournaments, no need to still be mad over it The ex-staff with the most knowledge of comp pokemon would be Dormira/Plizard/Spectre, outside of them I don't think there's much experience.

Comp experience doesn't necessarily mean good hosting skills. It has almost nothing to do with that and everything to do with PR. Link to comment
Plague Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Comp experience doesn't necessarily mean good hosting skills. It has almost nothing to do with that and everything to do with PR. Hosting skills kind of go hand in hand with knowledge of what you're hosting, no? Link to comment
Emlee Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Hosting skills kind of go hand in hand with knowledge of what you're hosting, no? Not nessesarily. An understanding helps but I someone who is skilled in competitive play isn't necessarily a good tournament host. A good tournament host is adaptable, covers all of their basis (via the thread, rules, etc), can present themselves in an unbiased manor, and can communicate well and respectfully with the community. None of those things really relate to comp experience. It's a people skill and logical reasoning thing. Yes, people make good and bad calls but often a call is made based on someone "covering their basis" and it enrages the community regardless. You can't please everyone all of the time. A knowledge of competitive play helps out in specific circumstances but in reality it's not like you can ever say "well this person was going to win so even though they disconnected and that counts as a DQ I am going to award them the win", etc. Link to comment

Emlee Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Unfortunately Darkshade is the best "current or previous GM" ever. There just isn't any questioning it. Link to comment
Munya Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 In IRC I would not so secretly tell every GM that they were my favorite. except cypher cause i cared for him about as little as everybody else seems to have Link to comment
MarleyRose Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Darkshade is the best. Except for some reason he refuses to make a dress. The fuck Darkshade. Heimann 1 Link to comment
