During last War, we saw some Masters bet against their team. That was very bad for team morale and extremely embarrassing for the whole event.

This time Generals are ordered to put their element in the 1st place. Even if you think your team sucks and you will lose, it's better to keep up the morale by saying you will win.

You don't have to order us to do so... obviously a master (or a general) has to have pride in his/her own element.

In that logic, Jumba failed, for he posted :gravity as 5th.... The reason why this thread exist.
Ex-Master of :gravity, still a fervid supporter! GO GRAVY!

This is why i abstained from voting last War. Realistically i didn't think we had a chance of winning and me being a realist couldn't get myself to vote for something that i didn't believe in. Had nothing to do with me having or not having great pride in my element. This time around though i will certainly be voting.  ;)

Heh, I hope you meant 3rd :)

Seriously though, for those who still haven't managed to see it (I don't think that applies to anyone who can see this thread, but just in case) any cockiness I display is pure fun :P
I ask nothing of humanity but fairness in all things, but I do not expect even that.
