Title: Potatoe vs. Potato
Post by: taulover on October 23, 2017, 06:58:25 AM
Welcome to Round 1 of the Holy Faiths Spam Tournament!

Tournament Bracket

Link to bracket (http://challonge.com/jy55q3rm)

Our first match is a much-debated topic, begun by the Great Prophet Dan Quayle (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wdqbi66oNuI). What is the true name of our Holy Spud: Potatoe or Potato?

As we have quite a few tournaments to get through, unlike the original game created by Mathyland, these matches will start at 25. Potatoeists can increment the score by 1 when they post, and win when the score reaches 50. Potatoists can decrement the score by 1 when they post, and win when the score reaches 0.

I shall join the side of the Potatoeists, and begin:

And I shall join the Potatoists, though it makes me shudder in my skin. It isn't appealing, you see, but for a competition to be true, we cannot see eye to eye.

I'll join the potatoeists, but I probably shouldn't post much until @Mathyland comes and balances it out.

I'll balance it out, though I prefer it spelled with an e.

And shouldn't this have stared with a sign up thread or something before you jump right into the tournament?

What's this? A spelling mistake? From you?

We're not competing! The phrases and concepts are!
Also, people can come and go and not feel intrusive if they want to jump in for a sec.

Edit: Unless you were referring to submitting concepts, in which case nevermind.

Edit2: For no particular reason I want to add that the root of this problem is one we can address next time, if it's a major problem.

Potatoe is the one true spelling!

There are no signups, anyone can join in whatever team they want, whenever they want.

Though maybe I could've waited longer for people to comment on the seeding.

Seeding? Could you rephrase that? I don't be-leaf I understand.

Seeding = setting up a tournament bracket (this is usually due to ranking, but I just chose them for what I thought would be interesting matchups)

I see! Thank you for the prompt response. Now would you kindly let me chip away at the points? Cheers.

I'm here representing the Elite Beet Agents.

They wholeheartedly support the Potatoeists.

Do they drop sweet beats? No? Then I'd ask you to pull open a you tuber and teach them.

I'm surprised that Crushita's potatoe radar hasn't triggered yet.

Seems like this will take awhile before it gets to the round I care about... was there any reason that all 4 in Round 1 couldn't be done simultaneously?

In my experience, when too many rounds of the same spam game go on at once, people start losing interest. This even happens when a second round of a spam game starts up right after the previous one ends, so I'd prefer to take this slow.

Ok, didn't know that. Not so much experience with these myself, haven't seen so many spam games at once since I checked Gamefaqs years ago and only saw their "hurt and heal" topics in place of anything useful.

Do spaces stop the math from happening, or do factorial functions ignore the space?

Good point, this isn't a real question because everyone knows that it's spelled Potatoe.
