Title: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Kevin Birtcher on Feb 05, 2011, 04:24 PM
Our fair site weathers all storms, but as we clock in a new decade, VOID City needs a Champion.  Such a Champion can only be decided in the most ancient of tournaments.  Only one, amongst all others, that can truly claim to be...

THE 2011 HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION!

The Heavyweight Tournament, not seen since 2005, is the very first Tournament EnterVOID.com ever held, to determine the best of the best.

“This title sounds like a pretty big thing. What's it all about?”

So many of our tournaments end in death for all characters except the sole survivor to make it to the end and claim the prize.  In practice, this overwhelmingly means the creation of new characters, so as not to put everyone's most precious creations to the axe.

The Heavyweight Tournament is different because it does not end in death at the end of each round, and is specifically for everyone to use their 'main' characters instead of creating new ones.  Characters we've all witnessed grow and evolve over the years, now pitted against one another until one stands above all others.

“So--"

But wait, there's more...

The winner of the 2011 Heavyweight Tournament will earn the permanent title of 2011 Heavyweight Tournament Champion, but also be granted a secondary title of Heavyweight Champion.  Following the tournament, this second title of Heavyweight Champion can be earned by any contender who manages to best the current Champion and title holder, passing from one artist to the next for years to come.

“Can even I, the lowly newbie scrub, enter?"

This tournament is open to everyone with an active character on the site, though there will be a selection process involving the Council and Think Tanks to determine slots.  Whether you've got 1 or 100 fights under your belt, all living characters are welcome to sign up!

“Good Golly, Miss Molly! I've gotta get in on this!”

Well good news! You've got until the 13th of February until Sign-Ups end! So shake out those drawing muscles and get ready for a fight!

“Anything else I should know?”

Each round will have a two-week drawing period, with three page minimum, and Round One begins 02/14.  NOW STOP ASKING QUESTIONS AND SIGN UP BELOW WITH YOUR CHARACTER OF CHOICE.  ...all right, you can still ask questions.

This is so fucking tempting but I probably will have to pass.

One question though - how would the heavyweight title be handled exactly? Say the person who wins decides they don't ever want to fight again and the title just stagnates, then what?
Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Qyzex on Feb 06, 2011, 12:37 AM
i imagine there'd be like... a 30 day no-compete rule, where it's vacated after that.

Possibly handed to the last person they faced off against? Or maybe mini battle royales to decide? Who knows

Man, I'd say 6 months or something. 30 days is FAR too short, I think.

Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Wei Ingnan on Feb 07, 2011, 08:59 AM
I was thinking the same thing as you and Qyzex, I should think if the title goes unchallenged or the character goes inactive for a predetermined length of time then the title should go up for grabs in another tourney.

We could run into exactly the same problems if we just give it the top contender from the original tourney. It should only be held by someone reasonably active. As long as we don't schedule it during any other current events there shouldn't be any conflicts.

The whole thing cries out to be dynamic and coveted so it should come down to a new tourney with current artists if things go stale with the original holder.

Really it could even be a small 4 person 2 round tournament. It hardly matters the size of the event, because the entire purpose of it is to get the title of Heavyweight Champion out to active hands so it can be defended and passed around. I suppose in that regard, it'll be much much easier to schedule such an event compared to something of SDT proportions.

Here's a puzzler though, say the title winner enters into a Tag Match. If he loses, who gets the title then?


P.S. You're signing up to be that active title holder, right? You denied me with All-Together Now!, do something asshole.
Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Knomer on Feb 07, 2011, 10:04 AM
Yeah there needs to be some stipulations and responsibilities to the title. Every battle the champion has shouldn't have to have his/her title on the line, perhaps bring back the trophy match concept but instead name it "championship match".

My suggestion is that the title should be defended at least once within a 2-3month interval, if not they must relinquish the title.

Another thing, to ensure that only "deserving" people are battling maybe only the top 50(25 whatever) ranked are only allowed to challenge for a championship match.
Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Cherubas on Feb 07, 2011, 11:00 AM
I think a defense every 2 months is completely fair. If the title holder is supposed to be the alpha dog of the site then he or she should be active as well. Plus, during this tourney everyone (selected) has a shot at the title but once we have a champion we'll have to wait for the title holder to offer that chance. For some of us that will be a loooooong time, and if the champion only had to defend once or twice a year that would pretty much make it indefinite.

Giving the opportunity only to 50 top characters is very limiting, because it doesn't give the vote of doubt to those that might have improved a lot or are willing to step up to the required level.

I think it would also be interesting if the title holder had a little icon or something placed in a corner of their avatar to actively show that they are the title holder.

Ugh...you know what. I've been feeling rather emo about my art lately, I think a tournament WOULD do me some good. This beyond battle I am doing right now is not turning out at all (its lame and stupid) and I fare better with a tournament type setting. I probably won't make it very far, but what the fuck. If I get in that means I'll have to cancel the BB and just do this instead (which is fine by me).

Not really, Dure could get it in a few battles, if Orange gets far he'd net it :D. Drastic could get it pretty easily if that slacker would battle more than like 3 times a year. If any of those guys won the tournament overall not only would they end up with the #1 spot but they would also have the fancy pants Heavy Weight Champ title. Yes, I am trying to light a fire under you guys' asses so we can see some amazing comics.

It's like wrestling - single titles aren't up for grabs during tag matches.

And I'm really not ready to comment on the eventualities of title transference beyond that inactivity will result in forfeiture.  Can we keep the discussion to sign-ups and hype?

From the suggestions thread, in July:
If the titleholder's inactive for more than a certain amount of time, a toss up match or tourney's held & victor gets bragging rights.

Inactivity's the only thing that should be a concern & it's already been addressed. Bases were covered.



I really want in on this, but I've got a busy work schedule & I'd like to keep up the momentum for something else I'm already at work on. Though I may get crazy & sign up before the deadline anyhow. We'll see...

haha alas even if I was still battling my schedule is a little too unpredictable right now since I get pages for work at random intervals. Have some big deadlines coming up in March for like 2 books. Orange I need you to go far in the tournament so you can kick me off the top of the ranks dammit! It is my will that a newbie takes the #1 torch. Since I'm not battling anymore I would like to see someone who is take my spot since I'm just loafing around there

I would but I have 3 books due before C2E2 which is March 18th :( There's no way I could handle coloring all that and do a tourney sadly. Sheldon's joining really made me want to do it but then I got a pretty big epic email about needing to finish 3 major projects before C2E2.

Not really, Dure could get it in a few battles, if Orange gets far he'd net it :D. Drastic could get it pretty easily if that slacker would battle more than like 3 times a year. If any of those guys won the tournament overall not only would they end up with the #1 spot but they would also have the fancy pants Heavy Weight Champ title. Yes, I am trying to light a fire under you guys' asses so we can see some amazing comics.

I'm pretty sure Ponbiki is like 1 win away from number #1 with Estrella
and Rtv! is like 4 wins away with Rtv!
Not to mention if P2 has a battle again, win or lose he takes the top spot back...

I'm SUPER EXCITED for this tournament though!! Especially for Sheldon, Jho & One Dark Knight!



Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Angie on Feb 09, 2011, 09:23 AM

And correct me if i'm wrong, because math was never my strong point, isn't the difference between a 32-fighter-tourney and a 16-fighter-tourney, only 1 round? Like this?

5 Rounds:
32 - 18 - 9 (one lucky boy or girl advances with no fight) - 4 - 2

4 Rounds:
16 - 8 - 4 - 2

Hey so,

I was going to do this tournament because I thought some people wanted to see Crazybee come back and slug it out, and I wanted to entertain with some fight comics and some smack talk. But it turns out a lot of the people here have some kind of actual dramatic tension with me. Which is cool, you're entitled to your own opinion...But I've got a lot of work to handle, and as much as I'd like to come back and put on a show for you guys, I get the feeling people are regretting inviting me because of the drama and how I handle it. On top of that, I enjoy the smack talk, but I don't have time for serious drama, or grudges people have with me. So I'm gonna have to cancel, and I don't think I'll be back to compete on VOID anymore. But I'll root for you guys from afar. I have too many fond memories with you guys so yeah,

That's why the internet fails with smack talk, because in real world at some point you get a fist in your face instead of harsh reply.

I didn't know what was going on in more than a half of this flame war - I hope two entries that happened durring it won't be missed out.

Kuro - I'd still like to see you get in on this.

Max - There's still a few days left in sign-ups... which should be just enough to change your mind a few more times.  I know I'm not the only one that would love to see Crazybee ONE MORE TIME.

A few weeks ago I sent you both an email requesting banner art.  Though my pestering hasn't yet begun, I'd still like to see something from the two of you.

I reformatted something I already had drawn void related to fit specs, but I have one drawing started & the idea for another. Felt silly just sending the old thing so I was going to wait until I finished one of the others. But haven't forgotten.

As for the tourney, I got until Sunday to figure it out? We'll see.

Hey guys, I'm gonna pull out of the tourney.

For once I'm actually working on my own stuff right now and I'd like to keep doing so. I've been using the framework of Void for a crutch and I haven't really learned to do comics all on my own yet. Which is pretty bad.

So yeah, I'd rather someone who will keep battling on Void (or a legend who's coming back to kick ass) get my slot.

EDIT: If there ends up being a need for a few more people to bump the tourney up another bracket like there was with a few of the others, then yeah I'll join.

A tournament bracket should be posted for all the participants to see. I think it might make for stronger storytelling possibilities and maybe introduce a new twist.

Just a thought.

With a bracket you still don't know who you will be fighting next, although the possibilities are narrowed down. Besides, it would be something that has not been seen on this board to my knowledge and I think would make it interesting. It works in major sports and is always exciting. I think the stories would be slightly tighter as well.

Oh...it also keeps the onlookers/fans tightly involved with the tournament's progress.

Nah, in reality I just don't like Coffee.

http://www.starbucks.com/coffee/via/via-log/occasion/recipes/post/905#content-anchor

oooooor, what I make for myself at home on my days off

put the following into a mug

1 pack Starbucks VIA (any kind. It HAS to be Starbucks VIA for this to work. I say this not because I work for Starbucks but because I've attempted it with other instant coffees like Nescafe and since other instant coffees are not ground as finely as VIA, they will not blend into it easily)
(http://dealseekingmom.com/files/2010/12/starbucks_via.jpg)
+
2 tablespoons Starbucks Mocha Powder (I imagine sweetened cocoa powder or chocolate syrup will do the job too, provided you'll be adding less chocolate syrup)
(http://www.scooterswag.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Mocha-Powder.jpg)
+
2 tablespoons hot water

stir it all really well, it's very important that the water you added is hot so the powders will mix. When you add the cold milk you pretty much have no hope of mixing the powder itself anymore than that.

very vanilla soy milk or any of your favorite milk, I use vanilla soy because the vanilla boosts the flavor, I'm not sure how well it would work with regular milk but if you use just Hershey's chocolate syrup instead of the mocha powder I imagine the Hershey's would take the bite off of the coffee.
(http://www.ewaymart.com/images/uploads/Silk%20Soy%20Very%20Vanilla%208.25%20fl.%20oz..jpg)

the results are chocolate awesomeness with as much caffeine as a cup of coffee. While I love the flavor of coffee, you won't taste it at all so even coffee haters would like it. This is also super awesome hot, so if you have any hot chocolate mix sitting around and want to be ghetto, just toss the VIA in there.

If you're scared to try coffee, since you're in Columbus, get your ass to Giant Eagle and go to the tea/coffee section (for the non Ohio people, Target also carries this). Giant Eagle carries the holy grail of deliciousness

(http://img.shoppingnexus.com/products/tazo-chai-spiced-black-tea-concentrate-32-oz-boxes-pack-of-3.jpg)

fuckin Tazo Chai concentrate. For best results add the Chai to vanilla soy milk since I believe this concentrate isn't sweetened like the stuff Starbucks uses so it's kind of bland unless you give it a little extra sugar.

There, all of you are now armed with coffee and tea recipes, I don't want to hear any pansies being all "I needed to sleep" when I have given you my coffee knowledge.

For the coffee lovers out there, fuck all the fancy stuff. A large coffee at most any place, even a gas station, should have roughly 400+mg of caffeine. Don't even look at espresso beverages, a shot of espresso only has about 75mg of caffeine a shot so it's far more efficient and cheaper to just get a massive cup of coffee.

HMMMM...Then I'll have to try that...Since I'm not a huge fan of the Coffee flavor. Chocolate is fine with me though.

I have an idea.  This first round was so excellent that I think it cements the fact that our contenders are heavyweights.  Since they're in the tourney they're obviously the cream of the crop so I think they should have recognition with some sort of Heavyweight Award.

Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Charlie on Mar 16, 2011, 09:44 PM
Quick question, there is no way I can possible upload my finished comic, grab my score, and then bow out of the tournament without resorting to a default right? I don't want my score really to take a hit, and I do intend on finishing this comic, but I'm entering into some real busy quarters at school and I wanna build up my 3D demo reel a lot more. Unfortunately my first major project would coincide with the end of the heavyweight next quarter, and I don't want to risk having this effect that too much.

If I do manage to make it to round 3 I'll still submit, I do not/will not default ever on a match, but I'd rather not have to try and contend with this at the same time. If not, its cool, I'll still keep going if I have to (and if I actually do make it past this round), it was just a thought really.
Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011

I believe Toast has allowed people to bow out in the past, I'm not totally certain on that. I think it was on the invitational?
Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Charlie on Mar 16, 2011, 09:48 PM
It would be cool if I could. I don't want to take the hit on a default. I'd love to finish, I'm really getting into it as much as I can with all my schoolwork piling on top of me this round (I'm currently undergoing final projects and exams at the same time as doing this round xD).

If not, its no big deal, I'll still try super hard to keep going on. I just wouldn't expect anything amazing outta me haha.

Post by: jho on Mar 16, 2011, 11:20 PM
otyher way to do it is put half of your battle up (so let the other dude win) and post the rest as bb. no default, just probably lower score but no default.

Lowering his own score is half  defaulting - why would Orange even draw all that if he were to get below his battle.
RoflQu might still win :P

Post by: carlito on Mar 17, 2011, 07:45 AM
I think maybe I'm reading this different then everyone else... You're saying you're definitely going to turn in something complete this round, but if you win, you want to drop out of the tournament without Luna getting a loss. Right?
If that's what you're asking, you shouldn't be allowed to do that. Nothing against you though. I really like your Luna comics.

Post by: Charlie on Mar 17, 2011, 10:39 AM
Well, sort of. More like getting out of it without any hit to my overall artist score. But I do realize in essence it is kind of unfair. I guess I'll just see what happens and if I happen to move on this round I'm gonna scale down my next entries to a very low pagecount.

Post by: Cherubas on Mar 17, 2011, 11:56 AM
I have to agree with Carlito on this one. It's nothing personal, obviously. You're an amazing artist and a fun person to talk to. But something like half the people who applied for this tournament didn't make it in, you were given the opportunity in someone else's place. If you knew you wouldn't have the time then you shouldn't have tried out, but more likely things have gotten hectic recently, which is just part of life and happens to everyone.
Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Wolcik on Mar 17, 2011, 12:58 PM
Since I'm in the tourney I can understand Orange's point of view more I guess. It's very draining to give your 100% and if he knows he might default next round it's better to give up his win.
The only person that you could say that took someone's place was "namless" since he defaulted in the first round, and he got in based on his history with half-done product and defaulting.
It's still too early to say whenever Orange will win against RoflQu, and the fact is that he'll provide us with two very enjoyable battles.

For the sake of bigger good, or lesser evil it's best for Orange to quit if he knows he won't be able to work. He has his reason and I'm sorry that he didn't lose both his hands in car accided, because you might order him to do next round with his feet or mouth.
Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Kuro on Mar 17, 2011, 01:21 PM
I think it's great that Orange is being upfront. In a professional environment, if you're in over your head, it's good to let people know in advance rather than stay the course & fuck something up. Would've been nice, Orange, could you have anticipated the schedule conflict, to bow out before the thing started. I'm in the opposite boat, frankly. My schedule looked ridiculous & now it's kind of cleared up. I'm kicking myself for not entering. But hindsight's 20/20, & a motherfucker. Obviously you can't anticipate every aspect of everything.

It's fair that if Orange can't proceed, someone willing & more able can & should take his place. He got where he got to with solid work, as would whoever might step in at this point.

All that having been said, it's pretty goddamn silly to care THAT much about your score. No matter how great you're doing, it really is an arbitrary number. The work is always the most important. Concern yourself with that.

And hey man. Not only that, but like wolcik pointed out, what about your opponent? I think you're really undercutting Rofl here by kind of implying you defaulting would be his only chance at winning. Give him some credit. His last round was solid & he could have the better comic this round. Then you'd still be out anyway & be leaving with the best score possible you could muster.
Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Charlie on Mar 17, 2011, 01:41 PM
Whoa whoa WHOA. I didn't say that RoflQu's only chance of winning was me defaulting. I was speaking in what ifs and I'm sorry if it came across as anything BUT that. I still said I would be turning in a comic this round, finished as complete as I can get it. I do -not- ever default -ever-. I was simply stating in the chance that I managed to move on, I would not be able to uphold a certain level of quality. I never meant it to seem like I said RoflQu stands no chance, I've told him already many times that I'm kind of nervous about this fight and we're pretty good pals so he knows for a fact I don't think that.

I have already decided against dropping out anyway, Carlito already brought up a good point. Also yeah, I wasn't expecting to be this busy. I knew I was going to get busy with school but not quite at this level.

Also I know its silly to care that much about the arbitrary number, but that arbitrary number has given me something to shoot for. I play VOID like I play a video game, the number to me is the EXP and the rank above where I am is the next level so to speak. I can't level up if I don't do better, and so I have fun in giving myself a goal to reach - otherwise I'd turn in sloppy shit. I know the actual artwork is the most important but I use the scores as a benchmark for myself to try to beat, so it does make me produce better stuff :P
Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Qyzex on Mar 17, 2011, 02:00 PM
It sounds perfectly fine to me. Dude wants to bow out, but not default. He's still making comics, and said if he had to, he would continue the tourney and not default. Not really a slap in the face of anyone who didn't make it in, in my opinion.

I think his attitude on this whole thing is a big reason why he was chosen in the first place. Good comics, and an attitude of not turning in crap, even if times get hectic. Sounds like he's handling it very rationally and excellently.

Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Charlie on Mar 17, 2011, 02:08 PM
Its no big deal anyway, it'd be unfair if I was allowed to just drop out anyway (like it was pretty much said last page heh) so I'll just keep going until I lose. If I lose this round, cool, saves me a headache and from what I've seen of Rofl's comic so far it is a big possibility (and then Rofl, you will have achieved your goal of saving me haha)! If not then I'll keep going until I do lose. I realize I made a commitment just like a lot of other people did when signing up to this, I was just seeking a possible way out early was all without having to sacrifice anything. Really though, as stated, it is unfair. So we'll just see where it goes from here and I still am going to give RoflQu my all since I promised him a great round.
Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Qyzex on Mar 17, 2011, 02:15 PM
I think it's perfectly fair. I don't agree with any of this unfair business. And besides, life is unfair, and all you really gotta do is roll with it all and make the best outta it.

I mean, if you look at it in this way, it sheds new light: You put out an amazing comic and beat Rofl, and then move on to the next round. You then turn in something... not bad, but definitely not your best work, and you lose that round. I'm sure Rofl could turn it around and simply say "That's not fair, I would have put my all into my next fight, unlike this chump Orange". Rofl wouldn't say that, but I hope you get my point.

I know you, and I know you'll turn in stuff that will still kick ass, but I don't think it's "fair" to make you focus on this tourney when you have more important real life things to attend to. School is mad important, and I think that should come before Void
Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Charlie on Mar 17, 2011, 02:21 PM
I get your point, at the same time I do agree with it being unfair to let me get off easy. In a what-if scenario, say someone allowed me to hand in my comic and suffer no penalty for it and possibly win, and then let RoflQu go on to the next round. I don't lose out on anything. I guess the thing is I signed up to do this, it's like a contract. Most of the time terminating a contract early has penalties for it, and I'm looking to see what I can get without said penalty etc.

It is a tournament, and I'm still healthy and not in life-threatening circumstances or anything, so I'm inclined to just play it by ear and give it whatever I can. But thanks anyway man!

Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Cherubas on Mar 17, 2011, 02:28 PM
School definitely should come before void, so accepting the loss and focusing on the schoolwork would be a perfectly understandable answer. I've dealt with that. I know others who have dealt with that. Sure, life's NOT fair, which is the point of the situation. It sucks there aren't 522 hours in a day to get everything done and things pop up. It's just like you say, "roll with it all and make the best outta it." If you're going to kill yourself over a loss in a comic battle you seriously shouldn't be doing it in the first place. It's apparently a moot point though as he has decided to stay in the tournament and just do the best he can. I admire that.
Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Kuro on Mar 17, 2011, 03:29 PM
I don't think you meant anything as such. But it just didn't seem like you were treating Rofl winning as a possibility in what you were asking here. It didn't seem intentional but it still felt like a slight. Don't want to cause a scene where there's not. Just wanted to say that possibility's still very much on the table too.

Frankly, I loathe the idea of "Playing" void. Yes it's not pro work. Yes it's a fun thing to do. But to me, the game-y aspect people approach it with some times seems to undermine striving for quality. Obviously not with your stuff, Orange but with others. Sometimes, someone can let their work go to shit & just go "well that was fun" but no one else gets anything out of it, & they're not progressing as an artist. At that point it's kind of like, what's the point. I think it cheapens the whole attitude of Practicing comics. Just make something better than the last. But whatever. That's my take.

At any rate, like I said, if you win, I think you're perfectly in your right to pull out at this kind of a juncture. People are voting & you're not leaving them hanging, making promises you can't keep. You've got some quality stuff for this round, I'm sure & just want to stay honest. It shows you know what you're capable of & your limits. And it's fair to others.
Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: E.W. Schneider on Mar 17, 2011, 03:59 PM
Just so it's clear on how I stand, I'm fine with this. We've talked about it at length before this went up and there's no hard feelings or whatever regarding this.

I don't care if he decided to hand me the win and not for the obvious reason of me winning, but because the site's for fun and considering you're doing all kinds of shit at the moment, if you can't afford it then you should get your 'termination' at your request.

But, hopefully all of this is theoretical and I'll be able to save you from this tournament on my own merits.

EDIT: Or hell, make the next round a 3 way.

Speaking as another competitor in the tournament I have 100% no problem with someone bowing out under these circumstances.  It would be another thing entirely if Orange was trying to bow out of the current round but that's not the case. 

The other rounds haven't even been scheduled yet and next round was going to be two three way fights anyway, so really up to two people could bow out and the tournament would continue without a hitch.  So again, I'm completely fine with it if that's what happens. 

A side note:  I would be excited to face Orange if it worked out that way, but I'd want a competitor that was in position to give it their all.  I applaud you for bringing this up in advance and not simply defaulting later on.
Title: Re: Heavyweight Tournament 2011
Post by: Charlie on Mar 18, 2011, 12:36 AM
Thanks dude.

But like I said, I'm not dropping out regardless now. The only way I'm going out of this tournament is via a loss, so if it happens to me this round so be it and I'll be cheering Rofl on through the rest I guess! As for defaulting later on, I stand by a 100% guarantee that I don't default. I work hard on these fights to get them in to a decent quality, the only way I'll ever default is if I landed myself in the hospital and couldn't draw or an urgent family matter came up that demanded my attention :)

I just ask that people vote fairly on my fight against RoflQu and not try and do me a favour and skew the votes so I can be spared having to go on. I'd rather if I lost, it was done honestly as it would only be fair to RoflQu and myself. I doubt that anyone -will- skew the votes at all, I just wanted to make sure I got that off my chest. No, I am not implying that I'd win and that Rofl stands no chance, before we go down that road again, I just want the outcome of this to be fair for the both of us. I want me to have lost because RoflQu's comic was better than mine rather than the fact that I asked a dumb question earlier ^^;. I hope that came out right, I really don't want to seem like I'm trying to be a dick or instigate anything :(
