Here is the original topic that has been locked until we find a winner: http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,13180.0.html

Use this new topic to discuss about all the bets made. You can either go with "I told you so" or rant about losing because your favorite War team is a bunch of newbies. Blaming randomizers works too.

Discuss.

All i can say is that it's too early for anyone to really be gloating but i really, really, wish i had put air higher.

It's still to early to tell who's going to get second place... but I think it's obvious who is coming in first....Team :life!!

Remember Earth last War, 12-0 to 3rd place.

Air is strong...but for how long? Can they manage the entire War?

That would make a good rap song or something.

Well, looking back, I think I way underestimated air, but my picks for aether and darkness were spot on.

I'm just glad people still have faith in life as an element.

Between the two strongest elements so far - :entropy and :air, the score is :air 2 - 0 :entropy.

We came very, very, VERY close to beating the Air General (actually we probably would have with slightly different strategy) but for the moment it looks like they might go undefeated in the first round. Considering they are already 20-some cards ahead of everyone because of cheap bids in the first round, :air is probably not going to finish 5th-to-last like I predicted. Still, I think my predictions so far have been decent ... Of course with :entropy winning. :)

Btw, Air and Entropy look like they're taking the lead.

Looking back at my bet...
" :death  :water  :entropy  :earth  :time  :air  :fire  :light  :gravity  :aether  :life  :darkness  "

Oops.
I had faith in Death because I looked at their original War performance, How MrBlonde fought in the trials battle and the players he chose.
With water, I saw my stacked war team betting, and noticed a trend between the players on that, and the players on water's team.
Entropy is just a epic element. And It would be really random if they came 3rd twice in a row.

Earth and Time are the two bets I regret most. I judged them on last war, and general attractiveness, and stregnth. I should have put them down a few places.

And while I did hear a lot about pervepic, and I expected Air to de very well, I didn't know any of the players he chose, so I lowered them a few places. Oops indeed.
