It was two and a half years old, but it made me wonder why I came back.
Here is the story:
cenquist (I hope Colin is still around here somewhere) and I had clearly dominant teams and we were in separate conferences. He was using David Robinson at C and I had Olajuwon and Russell at C and PF (a classic malone9975 tactic for purposes of DEF and OREB). I go up 3-0 in the Finals after having split the season series with him winning the first to games at his house no less. I then proceed to lose the next four games in a row including Game 7 by roughly 30.
If this was a one time occurance I could understand, BUT...
This happened to me 3 times in the course of a month (granted I was most likely in more leagues than anyone at the time, but you get the point) so I opened a ticket knowing it was the only way to get anyone to pay attention to it since WiS doesn't pay attention to the forum accept when emonk or monkee says things like ignore turnovers the more the better, or minutes don't matter in a mock how-to that earned a banning, and I believed was the funniest forum post in the history of the internet (I wonder if monkee around too...his disdain for seble made me smile). Anyway I also lost while up 3-1 many many times...this had become a joke in the forums and really started to make me mad. I would laugh about it online, but then I would beat my wife and kid, scream "why, why" while in my rape shower position (now patented as the malone9975 rape and cry....Law and Order SVU sent me a royalty check last month). This took alot of fun out of the game, but I was still having fun.
What really bothered me, and then bothered me again was the response I got. One of which said that maybe my luck would turn around and I would go on a championship run...after that I decided not to respond because all could have said after that was for him to go have sex with a woodchipper, and that would have been inappropriate (and those who remember me know about my incredible use of decorum). I was also told that Robinson's improbable dominance over Olajuwon and Russell was entirely possible (of course REAL basketball fans remember that Robinson and Rodman together got destroyed by Olajuwon in the 95 WCF) to this day I still hate the Admiral even though he is a great guy.
So I just thought I would share that non sequitur with you all. After perusal of the forums I noticed that there seems to be a lot of SSDD, but it looks like WiS is hiring some additional people. I can't wait to see what the new people do with the Dynasty games!
