Look everyone, to those i've totally pissed off i did it for a good reason. You would not listen otherwise. But i am sorry for going so crazy. Now on to business. I'm gonna get a change even if it kills me. I just wish to go back to peace again and keep my judge status. But i don't see why this league can't be fair to everyone as it says it supposedly is. I just wanted a fair ammount of trials for everyone today and i can't get koen to talk to me about it otherwise so i came here. Hoping that the people will back me up on this just the same. Doesn't anyone else want a fair ammount of trials for everyone in the league and not have 3 taken away because they can't seem to get to that 1700 mark? Yeah people can but if everyone was able to this wouldn't be much of a game and there wouldn't be any competition now would there? Again i'm sorry i went so crazy and deeply regret it and nico please don't dejudge me I do what i do for a good reason.

Thank you to those whoever reads this and will back me, i appreciate you're support.

I dont understand what is it that you want, there are trials in every day. people never attend more than one or two every week. as a relativly good player Im glad that we finnaly get a chance to play a tournament with good player only.

the 1700 plus trial is a great idea, you complaining is like asking why the pro tour isnt open to the public, It should be interesting to see a battle of ml's best

if you can't get to one cause of your rating there are others. and if people logged on today at the trial time expecting to join they should read the calender. we have the options of 1700+ 1600- stuff like that for a reason. im not 1700+ and im not going to be in the trial. but ill find one to play in.

yeah but isn't this league supposed to be for everyone? If so then make it fair for everyone if 1700+'s get 3 trials then give 3 to people 1699 and below and make it fair. thats all i was askin for and i can't even play in them. i'm only trying to even things out and make it fair for everyone to have their own shot into the invitational. for the 1700+'s to only have their own trial takes away from the chances of someone below that to be in invitational because that day a one of the big shots will win and then the next day that same big shot can go and win the next trial where everyone is allowed. So all i ask is that to make things fair make 3 -1700 trials and let people that can't quite get to 1700 compete for their own place in this invitational. If that can't happen then this league truly isn't what it says it is and does not care about the people.

I understand what your getting at. It isn't fair for the 1700+ players to be able to play in every trial will 1699- players only get ceritain trials. There should be 1700+ trails and 1699- trials for some people who aren't as good to not have to play the 1700+ players too.

P.S. You should down the site again to get rid of the horrible color. I'm about to gouge my eyes out. Evil or Very Mad

I give 5 thumbs up to the 1700+ trial. If only because it will shut-up all the people who claim their rating sucks because they don't care about it and it doesn't matter what it is. I'm sure lower rating only trials will come at some point. It will be nice playing in a trial for once and not losing 100 points if I lose a game.

to those of you that think i'm being a baby only because i can't play i'm gonna tell you a little story.

Back when i first started i truly was a scrub. Did not know as much as i do now in mtg. but i saw a chance in playing in a vintage master. My first master and first time ever even touching on vintage and 2-land-belcher. the night b4 i sat for four whole hours testing and figuring out every turn 1 kill in the deck. The next day i woke up and sat down ready to go i went 5-2 in the swiss and top 8ed. After this i have trouble in t8 but manage to pull through after a force of will against my belcher g1. I go into t4 and go for combo and lose because of my own screw up by choosing ancestral recall for a demonic consultation. Sure i screwed up in top 4. But look at what i did. My first ever master and first time playing vintage and i piloted 2-land-belcher to a top 4. Thats pretty damn good for someone new to a format and new to a deck to do.

This is the reason i argue this. Because any scrub on any day can pull off the win of the century. Not because my rating, and not because i'm trying to be a bitch.

I am doing this because of whats right and whats fair to all and i wanna see some 1699 and below trials to even things out. It is only fair.

These Trials feed into the Invitational. 1700+ gives more veteran players with good ratings a chance to qualify. Thats what makes the Invitational an invitational, not everyone's invited. "Other" format trials fed into the BYOB master, more Legacy Trials fed into the Legacy master, so logically the Trials that feed the Invitational are exclusive. Heed to my logic and stop crying please.

And that is only first in a line of faults, WildCard. Razz

I fully support ace's contention. Considering what the League does to cater to Apprentice users in order to make sure it comes to flips, treating people equally is the least one could expect. If trials are being run for 1700+ players, the only fair complement is to run trials for 1699- players.
