Re: Rurouni Taikai Tactics - Round Five - The Return of...
Thank you. Should have known that Golbez would be able to answer that question.:)

What's Falco's rank? That's a really estoric bit of trivia...

Re: Whew
Chibi-Citan: *is repeatedly squirted* I'm SORRY! I didn't mean to-- the darkness overtook me! Noooo!
*finds a hiding place somehow*
Chibi-Citan: What can I do to make her stop spraying me? Maybe flowers? Or candy? I don't think the cheap booze will work this time.... What can make her happy?
TT: *from nowhere* Weren't you just a girl anyway?
Chibi-Citan: Well, at that point I was too busy swooning over Chibi-Will-Scarlett to pay attention. And in any case, even if I was a girl, that still doesn't mean I'd automatically know what Aeris would like, because she's a totally different person than myself. She doesn't walk the path of carnage and bloodshed, worried of slipping into full-on insanity from her grim experiences... and anyway, why should I listen to you? You're the one that got me into this chibi stuff in the first place! It's obvious you simply want to put me in the path of grievous harm.
TT: *from nowhere* Geez, sorry for trying to help... Well, here. *A bouquet of flowers materialize in Chibi-Citan's hand* Try your infamous Citan charm. And if not, *a giant mallet materializes in Citan's other hand* this should suffice for self-defense.
Citan: *sigh* Okay... although I don't know how you talked me into using these flowers. *Citan hides the mallet in his endless pocket and walks back over to Chibi-Aeris, who raises her gun; Citan takes out the flowers* NO! Don't shoot... I come in peace. I just want to apologize... I shouldn't have regressed into my evil state last night, even if I had suddenly been shrunken twice over, and transverted into a girl no less, but that's me rambling, as I tend to do because my mind kinda wanders, and--gah! Just... do you forgive me?

Oi.
Dry: Think an Army rank. A bit above Private. It's rather obscure, eh?

I hope the votes after the alloted time don't get counted. Even though that sounds selfish, seeing as my team took the brunt of the votes after 9:00 MDT, I have a good reason to protest if the votes are counted.

The deadline for votes is supposed to establish a zone inbetween round times. If Krizak said: 'This round will end somtime this afternoon' or 'This round ends when I feel like it', then I could care less, and I wouldn't even bother to post this. However, he set set a specific time for the end of Round 5, which was 9:00 AM MDT, or 10:00 AM where I am, or 2:00 PM where Baka and a slew of other contestants are. That means that even if he doesn't show up, the round is OVER. The official post is just a reminder, albeit a strong one. If Krizak had intended for this round to span over a day's time, then he would have put a specific time to end it later than that 9:00.

On a more personal note, my team's voting strategy hinged on that deadline, which is the major reason we became a prime target for A-Votes: We declared our votes in-round. I'm sure several more votes have been flying around in private, but we opted to put them out a small while before the round ended.

I don't blame any of you, especially the Magic Blades team, for lambasting us. After all, we were the most logical target to pursue at the time, having the second highest A-Vote total. But, you should have done that within the deadline. Making moves outside the directed time only gives you an unfair advantage.

Chances are, I might have done the same thing in your situation. Heck, I want to win as much as anyone else(Save Dareon, who I have a lot of respect for). But then someone would have made a similar point like I'm doing now.

*Waits for Krizak to contradict him* :x

I can't blame you
So I get to be screwed because I don't have a constant internet connection. From 1:45 PM (11:45 EDT, at which time I was hard asleep after a late night working and then acting the fool up here, up until 12 Noon, where I woke up, mowed the lawn, went to work until six, then fell hard asleep again upon getting home) to 9:00 AM Monday (7:00 AM, at which time I was running for the bus--yes, unfortunately, I still have school, else I'd be here all the time), I had no chance to vote. See, right now I'm pounding this out at my aunt's house, the only place I can get compie access (school computers are so blocked it's not funny, and at home my mother STILL hasn't gotten any internet service), and my itinerary would've made it difficult for me to vote at any point anyway. Still, you have quite the valid point, even if you admit to being selfish; after all, you are following the rules. We're being selfish AND transgressing the rules, and I wouldn't expect anything but to be kicked because of that. I didn't think I'd end up being a dead leg on this team, since it's obviously me who's failing the Blades... sorry, everyone. Still, one more point to make? I'll have to pore over the posts some more, but I'm quite certain that another round had votes past the "deadline" which counted; in fact, a large amount (if not a majority) of the votes came in after the time set, but were counted anyway. Moreover, the round didn't end with the deadline, but ended at the time Krizzy said as much. If he instead holds to the deadline for this round, I'd begrudge him little, but he wouldn't be holding to precedent, which seemed to apply when the rules were transgressed in other topics.

Re: I can't blame you
Thirdtwin - I know how you feel about missing parts of the round.

Just bear in mind that for most rounds, anyone in the UK (who isn't crazy) will have gone to bed about 4 hrs before the round ends.

It generally sucks.

On all things...
Well, yeah, all accounts the "extra" votage will happen because it was never declared over, and that rounds have often passed their bounds, much to some detriment.

Personally, I can't say either way. I've been known to abuse the clock to get my strikes in just before closing to avoid retributional voting; hell, I know alot of times in past tournies where votes came out of the woodwork right before closing time.

Part of me says that votes past the declared time should become invalid. Part of me says until 'officially announced' (or announced by Proxy (someone acting on hosts behalf), as happened a few times) all things should count.

*shrugs* We'll see, ok? What passes passes, and in all judgement, just remmeber its a game peeps. ^^ (After all, I can think of worse things, such as the abilities of RT1.... >D )

Boo. ^^
Well... as far as I understand, votes can be cast and still be accepted until the round is officially ended by Krizak. So, votes cast now may still be valid.

Dry: I guessed at that question, and I got it correct. Just go through different ranks until you find the one that's correct - it shouldn't be too hard (although I can't remember any of the other questions! ^^)

*grumbles over Clue 9* That HAS to be a typo...

Dammit.....
Heya guys...Just posting to say I'm going to have to pull out. I'm a fallen, so it shouldn't matter too much anyway, but I figured you all deserved a heads up and an explination....

See, I never thought this would go on this long...I figured there's no way.. Well, It did, and I'm now into finals week. I've got at least two classes in which getting a decent grade completely HINGES on getting a good grade on the final, which means I'm going to have to put school before RT and study.

Sorry guys, Link's avaliable as an NPC if any of you want to use him, And I may make a post or two, but there'll be no more significant activity from me....Sorry guys :(

Good Luck everyone....

I might be taking time off, too, since I have finals as well. Although I will probably post more than Cirrus, but we never know. And school's been such a bith this year...

Re: ><;
Actually, our school is changing to the 'normal' school year. So while we get out of school before June, we also get back in during September. Next year, we'll get out in June.

I got an extra-long vacation!

Re: Rurouni Taikai Tactics - Round Five - The Return of...
Heh, I've been out of school since the first full week of May. *laughs maniacally at those who just finished* :lol

As for this whole "official end of the round" controversy... I don't really care either way. I know my votes and my submission for the minigame both happened well after the set end time, but if they don't count I don't really mind. I'm already fallen so my few votes probably won't matter, and I'm already at my maximum level so I don't really need experience (unless there's a prize for having lots of experience, because I've had one of the consistently highest levels since round two).

Personally I can't help but wonder if the DGoBD has struck down Kriz's internet connestion again.
