Again Sorry for the garbage plays guys!! :nohead:
I think I have a couple of winners here to get me back
into the groove .
Why the need for "comeback" plays if you were tearing the NBA up? This is why people called you out when you created the Tracker Forum thread in the first place, remember? You just got to reset your record...and disregarded all of your losing plays. That tracker forum record is very misleading. That's why, if you remember, Boxslayer and others called you out on it in a thread way back when.
As for the attempts to cheat on your record...the facts speak for themselves. No less than four times did you, "accidentally" either omit a losing play alltogether, or "miscalculate" your record, counting two-unit losses as one-unit losses, and so forth. All of this can be verified by RobFunk.
As for Budworth's comments about the moderators...I think RobFunk does a solid job running the Tracker Forum, but I tend to agree with Budworth that the Tracker Forum's intergrity has been compromised in this situation. As I asked Funk about a week ago, how many times is a poster going to be given the benefit of the doubt for, "accidentally miscalculating" his record? Or "making a mistake, forgetting to count a loss? At what point does the RX Moderating Team even start to suspect that a poster might actually be trying to deceive them. With the exception of maybe one occurence, I truly believe that these "miscalculations" were blatant attempts to deceive the RX. Especially with the Denver play, where Gyno posted a play, then made a completely separate post adding more units to the play...then somehow missed BOTH posts and didn't count the losses in his record. Of course, after Journeyman commented that he should be more accurate, it was decided that those comments be deleted from his tracker forum thread.
So I ask again: how many times can a poster attempt to deceive this website and its posters before any action is taken? Clearly the lesson has not been learned, seeing as how the latest violation occured last week. Of course, it was "an accident."
I also have serious concerns about how much real $ you put on these plays...updating your tracker forum record with "23 something units" after a loss makes me question whether or not there was even $ being put on the play. Not saying that you don't, but that was pretty shady, to say the least.
But yeah Gyno, the bottom line is your record IS misleading because it did not include your record before you started tracking(although still undoubtedly impressive, congrats, and your record might actually be BETTER if you include the plays from before, although I guess then there would've been no need for "comeback plays")...and I have no choice but to believe that you have, on multiple occasions, tried to deceive the RX by cheating on your tracker forum record.
For the record, I have nothing personal against you whatsoever. You've been nice to me and shown me nothing but respect and kindness both here and the forum at which you moderate. I'd like to think I've treated you with that same respect and kindness. But I can't ignore the facts, and after reading this thread, I was compelled to respond. You simply should not throw that record around in people's faces and claim to be a great NBA capper without expecting some sort of backlash.
To be honest, I'm more disappointed with the moderators moreso than with you. You seem like a nice person, a good person.
I'd love to hear a response from the moderators as to why they decided that taking no action, not even so much as a slap on the wrist, was the best course of action. Did they truly believe that all of these occurences were truly accidents, with no alterior motive whatsoever?
GL on all of your future plays and I hope you don't take this post too offensively...but the facts speak for themselves. GL.
