A Note From The Chairman
Houston, we have a problem.
I have one Judge's scorecard.
One.
I can't do Judges' Comments, because it would be Judge's Comment.
I can't do a Verdict. Even throwing in my scorecard, I'd have only 2.
I can't now /ask/ for any of you to Judge, because you all have likely chosen the winner in your mind by now and therefore cannot Judge it clean, with that 'take it as they come' mentality a Judge uses to score one round at a time. There's a bigger picture in mind, now.
To top it off, we're losing another IB, have only 1 new Challenger in /months/ and our slim pool of Judges just went from slim to almost none.
People are just too busy to be doing this, and that's life. It happens.
If I'm going to keep this alive, we /NEED/ more Judges and Challengers, and not just return Challengers who Battle again.
Thoughts?
