It's EXTEMPORANEOUS for a reason

I'm always driven back here when something just sets me off. So what is it now, might you ask

I wonder is there some sort of committee or jury you could bring this up to? Or did whoever was incharge of the tournament think it was fair?

It doesn't sound very fair to me.

You're right to be pissed, but at the same time, you can't let it get to you. And I don't just say that because of that "life's not fair" cliche, because you're smart; you already know that. Fact of the matter is that you're mad because people will think he beat you, even though you're the more rightful winner. But you're better than him, so it doesn't matter. People may think he's better, or that he won fair and square, but people also think the world is flat and that evolution is a lie. Can't put too much stock into people and how they think. Besides, now that you know he plays with a loaded deck, you can beat him regardless.

(Also, by the by, this is Rice. This is my other account that I still write in once every never. Way I see it, we're friends, but only have a very finite amount of time we'll be seeing each other, so if you get to find out how mindfucked I am now, doesn't matter so much. Just keep things quiet, right? Can't have people finding out they can commit me to an institution)

you and your font of wisdom. actually, this whole cheating matter took a very different turn, and I've been meaning to post about it because it's just a whole new level of frustration, but basically the powers that be apparently consider these briefs "electronic news articles"...yeah. there's more to be said there, but I won't pour it all out in a comment.

and something unrelated, are you going to prom?

Hmm

So they're legal then? Though, I bet you're the sort to not use them anyway, out of general principle, right?

And, I have yet to ask anyone, though, I should probably get on that. You?

Re: Hmm

yeah, to the first bit... there'd be no integrity in it. not to mention, our extempers would never learn how it's really done if they use those as a crutch.

and I am not going with anyone yet... do I need to be more obvious?
