Someone needs to give you credit for the work you continue to do. As an outsider you managed to take a competition that many on the board genuinely care about and make it your own. You selected both of the guys you wanted to be in the championship round when it started. Because of your greatness everyone can't stop talking about you and your influence. You've gotten people to do exactly what you wanted them to do even when they thought they were doing the opposite. The end justifies the means. Kudos!

I agree. Panther is doing an an absolutely outstanding job of being a raging lunatic.

Organized chaos. A lot brilliant people were called crazy.

Denial. The results tell a completely different story.

He definitely helps keep this place funny. He is an acquired taste, but once you understand his role around here you can appreciate what he does.

Panther, Nas, anti crew mult, and badrogue are early favorites for top seed next year.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

If you mean choosing a different "chosen one" every round then yes.

We just have two likeable posters in the finale. If we had someone everyone hates like Baby McCown, Chas, or FavreFan then maybe I'd believe it.

has a mult ever had a #1 seed ?

could be history in the making

Panther is the goods. The board could survive without him but why would you want to?

I'm on voluntary CSFMB tournament exclusion from here on in Samuel. I'll shoot the first free throw to start things off then fade into further board obscurity.

Honestly he wanted both to make it there. I could prove it if I didn't get a million PM's over the past couple of weeks. Some sniffed out the DS choice but I knew about the Sam thing from Day 1. My choice was RFDC and FF but I lost. I did correctly pick DS as the winner.

The problem is that he only really had an effect on one match, and that was getting rid of rpb.

I counted at least 80% of the votes in this contest, and it is pretty clear why both these guys made it. It's because people like both of them. Many contests for them were not that close.

We aren't talking about who is going to win the tournament we are talking about Panther. Even when the final results are given we will still be talking about Panther. He's the trending topic of this board and has been for the past couple of weeks.

I don't entirely know what's going on, but if the extent of it is as Nas says, I don't really understand how someone with a full time job and family has the time for any of this stuff.

IMO opinion he played a role in Sam beating Doc and DS beating Bagels. He felt that GD would beat DS so he cast the deciding vote for Bagels.

thats like saying when your team wins 100-98 that a basket made in the 1st quarter was the winning shot

Except his vote was the game winner.

Most contests got between 20-35 votes. A lot of people "controlled" the contest then.

Again, he knocked out rpb by bringing out his mults in a public vote. That was it.
