Wow, two weeks and no trash talking?!

You won't get any from me - just a "Great Game!!" to Far Far Away, who would have beaten anyone else in our division this week. The Pretenders have their work cut out for them this week.

Thanks man... we were disappointed about some of our scores, but you did so great that it was really hard to defeat you ;)

Coming into DPL, I had the lowest percentile (not counting the people who failed to qualify for a score with 0's) over the past 10 challenges.
Any time I score better than Anybody during a DPL challenge, you can look in the mirror and say "I was beat by the Worst photographer (statistically) in the challenge".
How's that for some DPL Trash talk? :-p


Just to further prove my point since the Trash Talk thread was revived...

Currently scoring in feathers.... Avg Vote: 5.8125
Take "THAT" everybody who scores less than me :D

181 entries in graveyards and only about 100 voters? That stinks.

Um, right?! That's 2/3 voter turnout of just DPL "participants", and we know there are non-participant voters.

Not that we need the scores even lower. ;)

I feel like the winners shouldn't claim winner if not everybody votes. It should be a requirement for a competition.

I guess the smell wasn't so bad- more like chocolate ice cream :)

If the winners all vote, and they can't vote for themselves, how is it on them?!

I do agree that voting should be a requirement for competition, not just in the DPL, but at a minimum there. Participation is voluntary so you'd think participants would want to fully participate. I can see why it's not a rule, but I would expect Captains to encourage their teams to participate fully.

If you enter, you should vote. You expect to receive votes on YOUR photo, don't you? With everyone playing (more or less), who do you think votes if the participants don't? We don't have Vote Faeries....

I was just picking on the winners in general. I'm sure some of them vote and some do not, just like everybody else. But who knows what the results would be if everyone voted? That would be a real competition.

Well said ! I quite agree with this sentiment. It irks me even more than normal when there's league competition ongoing

So when a team beats the Smite Council they get to pick the challenges for the next week of competition, right?! :)

Only Langdon, and he hasn't posted anything in the team thread since the competition started ...

I think you might have an idea there, Deb. I could use a little magic about now :)

Submitting and image into a challenge to be voted on and not voting is just plain rude.
06/25/2015 07:07:20 PM · #42
I love my dyslexia (perhaps it's a bit of needing computer glasses) but I just read that not voting is just plain nude.

I rarely vote in the nude. Actually, never.

Man, you guys really suck at trash talking!! :)

Once again, not here to talk smack, just to brag on my team. When someone on your team finishes 8th in an Open challenge and their score doesn't contribute to your average you know you had a great week. Smite Council has been smoted!! Smoten?! Smited?! Smitten?! Fagedaboudit!!

Go Hit Squad!!

Congrats!! I'm so pleased for you -- and not worried about the possibility of perhaps meeting you in the playoffs. Because when a team beats the Smite council, I hear that half of the team randomly disappears, and the other half has DQ problems. mwahahaha!

They can try, but we know where to bury smoted/smoten/smited bodies where nobody will ever find 'em.

Cool! Two teams decimating each other! Works for me. :)

Wow, sounds like you guys would rather skate through than face a little competition. ;)
