You know what ,i agree with
@xtreme cuber2007 here I feel like he is correct and his family did vote. It's fine just deal with it, it's not a big deal. He may just have a family of cubers, who knows its not your business. You can just deal with it, it's not the end of the world. Apparently to yall if something happens less than 95% of the time, its fake. I do see yalls argument but I think the defendant here wins. Just don't accuse people of crap like this. It just happens.
Just when I was starting to change my opinion on you...
This is quite literally the single worst argument I have ever heard on the forums and in real life.
(@BenChristman1 if you're working on forum awards this year I'd like to nominate this for Worst Arguing and Dumbest Post of the Year. No offence Lukas). You start off in a way that suggests you wrote this spontaneously. "You know what" is a horrible to start a post, you also didn't capitalize the first "i" but did for the second. You than say you "feel" that he is correct which is fine. But it makes sense to be skeptical given that he didn't provide good evidence or a confident tone.
Let's assume he has a family of cubers like you said, the chances of that are extremely low but let's just pretend. If his family were all cubers are we also assuming they have a very good understanding of big cubes, theory, ergonomics, lookahead, and so on? If so can we also agree that they all discussed each method in great detail not knowing which was there relatives method as to prevent possible bias? And what are the chances of agreeing that the one was best in terms of all three categories? On top of that how was it that it was also xtreme cuber2007's method? It does not even make sense for all to put his method as most original since that is very, very debatable.
How do you explain the the second string of votes like
@Athefre pointed out. Now that we mentioned Athefre let's discuss your next point. You quote his post replying that it's "fine" if he even
did cheat and that it is "not a big deal". You then go on to tell this whiny Athefre fellow who's been creating methods since before you were even born that he needs to "deal with it" I mean c'mon Athefre it's not the "end of the world" for crying out loud.
You seem to contradict yourself when you go from saying that he did not cheat to even if he did it's not a big deal to it's none of our business if he cheats to stuff like this "just happens". Whether this is purposeful, the fault of bad writing and grammar, or just a poor understanding of arguments I don't know. But what I do know is that it is everyone's business on the forums, especially Atherfre and xtreme cuber2007's fellow competitors who, if I may add, seemed to put a lot more thought and time into this than xtreme. This isn't some card game your playing with your chums, this is a contest that is requiring hard work and thought. Not just anyone could enter. You needed to know what you're doing and how to win. Not only is this a contest that can contribute greatly to the cubing community, but, there is a prize at stake. To cheat someone out of an otherwise rightful prize is extremely dirty and does not belong anywhere, especially in a small community like this.
You act as though your decision is the deciding factor of determining quite possibly the winner of this important event. Excuse me if I sound rude but you aren't exactly the best decision maker on this forum. You tend to create lazy posts that don't really make a point and you never use a professional tone of voice no matter the topic or length. You've been known to not think things through into detail such as your 5x5 method which you cling to despite multiple experienced cubers and method creators telling you it's no good.
Moving on. You give no reason on why you think the defendant wins. You simply say we shouldn't accuse people of "crap" (real mature btw). This kind of stuff doesn't "just happen".
@xtreme cuber2007 decided (unless he can provide some stone hard evidence) to make that decision. It was not by chance. A couple posts is not a big deal everybody has actually been surprisingly quiet about this. The things we "accuse" of not being happen much less than 95% of the time. Having a whole family cube is much greater than a 95% chance, same with when we questioned you about your PB. It was very suspicious and you did not even have the scramble again, something that happens less than 95% of the time.
In summary: 1. Telling the creator of the contest it's not a big deal is ridicules. 2. We have all the right to be suspicious. 3. You can have opinions but don't expect us to agree especially if you sound like a toxic inept internet kid.
Edit: That last bit was a little harsh. I'm sure you aren't this bad in real life but a lot of your posts give that impression. Sorry if I sounded like a jerk.
