Quote from: pyscolone on May 24, 2010, 12:12:05 PMCan't believe I didn't get in because of half of these no-namesQuoted for truth. There's nothing that annoys me in BBEANS more than these nobodies popping up out of the woodwork to waste the spaces of good users with these- and then disappearing into thin air, safe in the knowledge that they've wasted everyone's time. For the next series, I recommend a minimum amount of posts in an account to enter (IE. 50) to prevent these parasites leeching spaces off worthwhile users. An entry fee if you will.

No they won't. And did you ignore my post?
[rant]One thing I will not do, however, is exclude people based on their experience or their quality. I don't want BBEANS becoming some exclusive, elitist "club". Maybe it's the biggest and most prestigious tourney here, but it's always been open to anybody. If I didn't let in newbies, we wouldn't have people like somestrangeguy (who was totally unknown when he first entered BBEANS3 as Destroyer), or Sage (who was still a newbie and wasn't yet making the killer bots he does now), or Phlox and Barbie (who weren't even registered on the forum when they entered BBEANS1), and the list goes on. My point is, it's good to give the newbies a chance, even if their bots are SFTWs. Just look at Phlox and Barbie's BBEANS1 bots and compare them to their BBEANS3 bots.[/rant]

Sorry Goldenfox, but I agree with Clickbeetle. You should be allowed to enter, no matter what skill level you are. How will you learn if you aren't able to enter tourneys until you are of higher level?Quote from: Somebody on May 24, 2010, 02:02:12 PMYou snooze you loseThat makes a lot of sense.
ALERT- Another WS coming up...
I'm fine with hugging reier
