[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 247135, member: 134"] Exactly. And based on comments where people landed in the top 10 of the tourney leaderboard after 5-10 plays and claiming that's a lot for them, versus my attacking a table 30+ times over 2 days sometimes to only land in top 20, clearly there is a skill versus luck equation. I'm not arguing it's not fair or anything, just that often at the end of these things you just kinda throw your hands up in the air and say "what's the point?". I personally have way more fun being soundly beat quickly rather than repeatedly beaten down over a week. That's partly why I'm not participating this month, because I know 4 of the 8 tables are no fun to me on their own, let alone trying to actually post a good score. There have been other times where I enjoy the tables despite my inability to score well, and I do play then. It's funny though, my goal going from bronze to silver to gold level has never been about taking the top spots, merely advancing. Now that I'm in gold, it's about playing to have fun. [/QUOTE]
