We have lost the last three matches by one vote. How annoying.

I enjoyed Jerec's commentary for EmP vs bluberry.

Thanks for your commentary, judges, and for giving me my first-ever win against zigfried. I was really anxious about this one because I wrote it specifically for this contest with less time available than I had hoped for. I was really pleased with how it came out, but I knew that I was definitely taking risks with the approach. Then zigfried produced a review that was really different and I had no idea how that would be received. I'm glad that two out of three judges liked my effort more. Now I can focus on how to win next week! :-D

Me too genj. I'd been waiting for that. Good to see a lot of first wins this week, too. DarkEternal's too good to go winless.

Jerec goes to sleep just as Lewis wakes up, which was the problem in this case. I wonder who the most efficient person to post the verdicts would have been, assuming everyone finished at the same time in the day. Sportsman as the person furthest west or lewis as the person in the middle?

Me, as I'm the one who is currently unemployed and has time to do this shit. Also I'm good with Excel. I usually finish judging first, though.

Appreciate the feedback here. I'm glad you pointed out things that could be better even though it one. That'll help for next week.

Both teams played hard.

Team Suskie vs Team Janus was actually super close. Halfway through the Disco review (I read Schultz's first) I thought to myself that he was going to be the clear winner here and was almost tempted to just skim the rest. Then I got kind of annoyed by the end of it and wound up picking Schultz's. That pick determined the fate of the match, actually.

I just want to take a moment to share something I was thinking about today at work, as I anxiously awaited for the results that would end up spelling my doom.

good to know that it's not worth writing new reviews since the judges won't even bother to fucking read them if they assume that they'll be something they're not, huh EmP? get ready for Doom II and the rest of the hit parade! he's right though, I thought my piece in particular was very flowery and gay, lilicesque even. we're trapped in Fix's shadow even when we're writing totally different stuff, how depressing is that?
Oh no, it's a Goomba! |

Man. Beating Zig just isn't as magical when everybody's fucking doing it.

For the record, I think "I have no interest in this series. Do you manage to win me over?" is a totally fair angle to take with judging this, even when the game in question is mediocre.
