Hey Loismustdie.... Just to remind you.... You won the 'FCP FORUM JUNKIE' seat. But the contest wasn't limited to just forum junkies. The contests which are, I wouldn't think of intruding on because I am well aware that I don't post. Personally, I am a lurker, always have been. I don't find much pleasure in reading RGP anymore but there are RGP events I wouldn't miss. During these events, I have never been excluded are criticized for not posting. Most people who post realize there are others who just enjoy reading which doesn't negate their validity or their opinions. Before the FCP site was rolled out, Daniel specifically invited everyone to participate, he included the word 'lurkers' in his invitation. That's why I'm here. That's who I am.... ;-) - Lurker Fernc-ya soon

You want to give me a good talking to? Save it. I understand how the seats were won- incidentally understand that winning the seat that I did I had to wade my way through a ton of quality players, 3 times- each time I came out a winner. I had hoped that about 9 or so of those guys would find a way to make it through another avenue, and it just didn't work out. Vatche in particular, worked his tail off and just couldn't get it going in the right spots. I am not speaking for me- I am speaking for them all, the guys who put this site on there virtual back and helped to make it what it is, when it was just a site, with no freerolls, no bonuses, just conversation and arguments and strategy and what did you eat for dinner. (Thanks for reading, by the way.) There is a reason why I have 30 some odd percent of the votes- it's not just because I am the best player at this table, it's because I am one of them. Good luck.

No, my intention is not to give you "a good talking to". I am sure your seat was won with skill, desire, and perseverance. I am well aware that others deserved to win just as much.I take exception to the fact that every time one of us attempt to post and participate, we have you standing on the sidelines, virtually rolling your eyes, as if we should be taken less serious because you don't know who we are. It's a similar reaction to how us live players used to look down our noses at online players. We worked for years, under some pretty slimy conditions, just to have some hot-shot come in and think they can learn it all in a year and a half and win a million dollars in some media circus.... well, guess what... we were wrong..... ;-)My point wasn't that you and other posters didn't build this forum. My point was and still is..... please don't assume people are less significant just because they are apprehensive to share their opinions.Take care.

Did I say you shouldn't participate? No. Did I say you were insignificant as a person? No. Why do you think that posters are ranked? It's a good question, because I really don't know, unless it were to be some sort of online status symbol, earned through time. Unwarranted at times, but for the most part, you can accurately see who cares enough to participate and freely exchange thought procees and ideas, and you can see who is just reading. The contest by and large had to be open to the public, and I respect that, and by no means am I saying that you shouldn't be there- all I have said is that I wanted to play Vatche, HangukMicuk, RoyalTour, Nikki, HoosierAlum, Spademan- and it didn't work that way.

I really do understand that you are disappointed that you weren't able to play against people you are familiar with.I took exception to comments like ...
Some response is better than none, but this was kind of my point- This winner has one post. One!!....
and
Wow, another contestant with 1 post. Big suprise.
I didn't say that you said I was an insignificant person. I said that making these types of comments, referring to us in the 3rd person is why people don't post..... it's as though you are talking to your peers about someone who doesn't belong. You made the 1st attempt in.... "Where are these guys"... Some of us tried to respond. It isn't always a lack of 'caring' that deters people from posting.

What exactly is so offensive about pointing out the glaringly obvious? I already knew where you guys were, the point of this whole thread was to voice my opinions when it comes to the lack of involvement by the other contestants. Which, I am right about- you guys are not really involved, and having nothing invested in FCP except this one thing. I don't mind being the guy that says what everyone else is thinking- the sad thing is that because of the lack of involvement of actual FCP players, and by players I mean players/posters, they barely even care at this point about the whole Protoge tourney because they have nothing invested, none of there peers are involved, at least not enough to make it interesting. I took my lumps as much anyone else in this site from a myriad of people, and I am o.k. and relatively unemotianally scarred. You will be alright if no one kisses your butt for awhile, I promise. :D On a side note, I am a little miffed that I dropped below 30%. Apparently uninformed people are voting, and it needs to stop. :club:

Oh, I get it now. Your thread titled.... "Where are these guys", was actually a rhetorical question.Hey, I might be slow on the come, but I catch on eventually...
