I just had a lot to say. =P

ALSO, Something that I forgot to mention. There seems to be an abundance of tournament RP's lately. Of course, nothing's wrong with that, but you gotta have some other ideas somewhere, right? Sometimes I think that Tournament's are like, filler ideas. Just hold a tournament when you want an RP but don't have a plot. Of course, you can merge a plot with a tournament, but this hasn't always been the case here. This chain of tournaments all started up with the Shadow Crystal Cloud tournament. It came with it's own plot, actually. A fairly good plot. Execution however, was rather meh. It suffered some of the problems I mentioned above. Next was the Cosmic Championship. Just a regular tournament, with no real plot, but it had a more professional feel to it. Although there were some incidents here and there, It was good. Then I saw stuff like "The First Hero Tournament", "Fancharacter Tournament", or whatever. There were like 3 with similar titles. Also the Christmas Championship, which I kept thinking was the Cosmic Championship at first glance. Neither of them really interested me. Then there was the World Hero Tournament. And that's where I was pretty much like "Okay, this is getting ridiculous." But I entered anyway because it was in good hands. And, it turns out, the World Hero Tournament was actually IMPORTANT for a newer RP. Then there was The Championship Tournament of Heroes. Something I was invited to, but didn't get to join because all the spots were taken up. I ended up being hired as helper because THAT was a CATASTROPHE. I couldn't take another horrible RP like that again, so I ended up just leaving it alone. I KNEW that I was turning out to be the only one who was strictly enforcing rules. That RP was broken. It couldn't be fixed without drastic measures. Then I saw another tournament, which looked like a completely blatant ripoff of the World Hero Tournament. And THAT's when I knew that this was going too far. (RP didn't get very far, as far as I know.) I'd now say that you guys have to start thinking of something new for a change, but it seems that people are already trying that now.
