Shadow said ... Finally, and this is not an attack on you, Perrin, or any one person in particular: Why not play in these tourneys? I'm at a loss for a reason why. As Perrin says here, "To be the Man ya gotta beat the Man!" If you can only win at straight ox and no pinks, then you're not a real champion. Being able to win in any format shows true prowess. A willingness to play in any tourney, no matter the format, shows the true heart of a champion: graceful when he loses, grateful when he wins. If you can't conquer something such as two tile or no oranges, then you really aren't "the Man" (or Woman), now are you?
Ok Junior, There are 2 reasons why i can use that quote you mentioned, First because its my blog and i like to talk smack , Seond reason: For the past several years i have played in EVERY league against the very best players in wordox in every format and day after day, night after night ,year after year i have consistently beaten the very best players in wordox in all the formats. Hell in FSW you cant find a tourney thats regular ox and i beat all them folks too. Not to say that the very best players dont kick my ass as often as i whip them because they do. But over the long haul i feel like i have established myself as one of the top 5 players in the World by doing what i mentioned above and that is beating the top players in every league , not just one tiny little group. Formats such as 2 tile and no oranges etc i have tried , won at them and wrote them off because in my opinion they are a pain in the ass. And free turn tourneys, unless its an obscure word why bother? Want a reward like a free turn ? Earn it. 1 more thing .... Whoooooooooooooooooooooo

Fair enough, Perrin; like I said, I wasn't attacking you or undermining your ability. That would be completely and utterly foolish and blind of me, and I respect your prowess too much to do that (can you tell I'm trying to inflate your ego further? LOL)!
I'm more annoyed at people who never give variety tourneys and such a chance because they think they are a waste of time. You have, though, so I both appreciate and respect that.
Still, I really don't think they're a pain...but that's just a difference in opinion that isn't going to change any time soon. ; o )
Thanks for the response.
