I wonder how much the “not a real format” argument will hold up when people see the prizes for the championship these weekly tournaments give invites and byes to…
and not to harp on the point but I wrote the code for the ladder and it’s tournament functions, it took hundreds of hours and is 10,000+ lines of code. I pay out of pocket every month for the hosting of the ladder and I’m putting up prizes out of my pocket. SBE provides a lot of the ladder prizes but some are paid for by me directly. For people to get so pissed that I would do these things still boggles my mind. Fortunately I know most people appreciate all my hard work so while I was initially caught off guard those people don’t bother me anymore.
It seems so strange to me to complain about banning a card in a format where half the cards are already banned anyway.
Hah. Such a good point.
