13th Trials - Phase 3: Community Vote https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=67466.msg1294281#msg1294281

Phase 3 - Community Vote

It's time to vote for your favorite Master candidate!  Every community member may vote on only one candidate. You can change your vote(s) at any time as long as there is still time on the clock.

Vote based on who you think would make the best Master of that element. Do not vote based on who is the best player or who you know personally. Try to pick someone who you think would help the community the most as THE representative for their element.  If you believe none of the Trialists should be Master, please select the "None Worthy" option. 

To help you make the best decision possible, feel free to ask the candidates questions.  Both challengers and defending Masters ought to answer the questions in this thread (and in the General questions thread) to help the voters make the best possible choice.  Please put all your answers in a single post (employing spoiler tags is recommended).  Also, challengers should include in that post a link to your Phase 1 submission post.


Questions and answers may begin now that this topic is posted.
Voting will begin when the polls are up at the official start of Phase 3.
Phase 3 ends when poll expires.

I'm going to modify this post to just answer all future questions I might get at once. I will not be answering any questions. Don't feel like you need to answer my question either, that was just for my own fun, I didn't expect to get more than like 2 answers anyways.


Spoiler for Hidden:
I truly doubt there's even a single person that's on the fence on whether they're voting for me or not. Pretty much everyone knew what they were going to vote before this trials started, whether you want to admit it or not. Either you think I'm annoying and self-centered, or you realize I'm just here to win games and throw a little shade while I'm at it. If you have some other nit-picky reason I really don't care to hear it (good or bad), and it probably just falls under the above two categories anyways.

If you're in denial and pretend like you're on the fence, I really don't care about convincing you for a popularity contest that's only worth 4 upgrades. The best evidence I can give you is I crushed it in phase 2 with only 3 people doing better than me. Then again, no one cares about PvP results when they vote in phase 3 as is evident from the past 12 trials, and I don't care that no one cares because I already got all the upgrades I need from phase 2 anyways. So yeah, spite me with your None Worthy vote, odds are I outperformed you in phase 2 anyways and couldn't care less about your vote. Do I sound like an annoying idiot to you right now? Well that's cause you probably already thought that, so it's not like I'm losing your vote.

As far as non-PvP aspects about being a master, such as "representing the element" and having "good leadership," this community and game is basically dead. Masters don't do anything except general war, and a lot of them didn't even general last year. Half of last years masters basically never played the game this past year, so pretty bad representatives of the game as a whole if you ask me. Finally, if you can't admit to yourself that I thematically embody :fire better than anyone else then you need to stop asking non-PvP questions to other trialists like you actually care, unless you want your integrity to look like a spark the turn after it's played.

Thanks for reading, and @immortal feud, future me does not regret banning nothing (including firebolt) in the phase 4 finals.

Question:

Explain your future loss against STANDIN (without using my name).

Updated my post. I will not be answering questions beyond what might have been answered in my updated post. I personally really hate this phase. Guess I should've fought harder with Manual when he complained about this last year. I get why people like this type of content and it makes things more interesting and different from simply a PvP event, but that energy and enthusiasm could really go towards something like getting people to actually join Brawl, or any event for that matter.


If you look at my phase 1 and phase 3 from last years trials I put a lot of effort into those (probably top 3 of everyone participating) as I had just joined this community and was really excited that this game had a lot more depth than simply being an online card game. Yet, all I saw for the whole next year was people sitting in chat and never joining any events. People can't even take 5 minutes to play a PvP match with a guest or even new registered players like Darkshadow or Virgo. This stuff isn't worth it for me anymore. I'm here to win PvP events and collect my mark codes, not pretend like this game still has life.
