I don't want it. And no I'm not saying that for reverse psychology. My ego will genuinely take a hit if I win.All of these candidates really want it, we can't reward their behavior with special recognition for the efforts to be as retarded as possible.
Abstain.
Araysar vs. Ambiturner - this one does not spark joy
pharmakos vs. Foler - downie
Mr. Sox vs. Kirun - black pill don't bug me much
womie vs. Chris - basically Hitler
were you in charge of marketing for The Marvels? the Peewee Herman defense doesnt help in this situation. an apple is still an apple and an Asshat is still an Asshat.Araysar vs. Ambiturner - Now that the previous round is over, I can come clean about something:Araysar has been a paid agent in this tournament. He was absolutely correct that all of his campaigning in these threads was to drive more engagement. But it wasn't his idea, it was mine. He didn't come cheap either! Enjoy those Tucobux, sir. That said, his opinions in the Ukraine and Intifada threads are his own, so he has that going for him, which is nice. HOWEVER! That means that Sergeant Stick Time is a more deserving candidate at this time IMO, so he gets the nod here.
pharmakos vs. Foler - Because I don't want to have to change the avatar around to include a weeping vagina on it somewhere which would be necessary if Pharmakos wins. Plus Foler is only playing possum when it comes to his antics, mark my words. Will he show up in these last few rounds and claim to be excited about winning, like the last 2 years that worked on everyone?? Let's see!
Mr. Sox vs. Kirun - If Mr Sox had the least bit of self awareness this would be a runaway, but I'm not sure he does so this feels a bit wrong somehow. Kirun however is self aware and has been putting in some serious work all year, so I gotta go with Master of the Blade in this round.
wormie vs. Chris - Man, this elite 8 round is no joke. Seriously tough choices. Despitelurkingdirk overstacking the Southeast I must say these brackets aren't bad bro. Still though, I gotta go with Chris in this round. If the Intifada thread goes another few months then wormie has an excellent chance for next year's crown.
