Official Match Thread Season 38, Round 4: Sin City Swamprats v West Coast Wonders @ Underground Stadium

[Giant YoYo]

Giant YoYo is really good at walking the dog.
I can vouch for that

Always a good walk

 

[philreich]

Bad luck today Wonders - we had the luck on our side when it mattered. Good luck for the rest of the season.

Well done Rats - we now sit at 2-2. Time to smash some Dragons: I wonder if they'll submit a team sheet this week........

[The Filth Wizard]

The Filth Wizard, are games no longer checked through the sim-checking process? Why / why-not?

Lord no. Why would they be? What a waste of time. It’s why we have re-sim rules and experienced simmers.

If there’s an issue by the rules we re-sim it by appeal. If there’s not, it’s quirk of the sim(mers).

well, get ready for one

 

[The Filth Wizard]

For the time skip? It’s not cause for a re-sim. Even if I thought people should waste their time re-reading a sim on a weekend when somebody who just simmed it would have cross checked their work, the only things being looked out for a things that cause a re-sim, not things that don’t.

Experienced simmers? The same simmers who asked to keep the sim check process in place?

The simmers do a phenomenal job and now in Round 4 we're already shining a negative light on the great work that they do. Shame!

Firstly, these are the same simmers who had no qualms about me removing the process.

Secondly, this is beautiful scandal media with no resolution that is wasted on the end of a match thread. Shame!

 

[BFew]

There was a time skip?

Probably when I started doing the below during the game.

 

[BFew]

We'll speak shortly.

Do not speak to that Filth pls.

It shouldn't take you that long to finish a Geelong Bitter!

 

[The Filth Wizard]

The thread is fifteen minutes late

 

[HARPSichord]

… like a Dyson

I could do with some of that right now.

 

[damicky]

I could do with some of that right now.

Is the honeymoon stage already over?

 

[HARPSichord]

Is the honeymoon stage already over?

RE-SIM!!!

 

[damicky]

Are you telling me that you expect to be rewarded for incompetence?

Justice will prevail and the good guys will win.
