Haha.. Webo's was nice, but Tldscorp's was kind of fresh, so I voted that.
Teatime - July 24, 2007 08:36 PM (GMT)
Webo's was a bit too basic imo...(heck even I can do that...almost..)
TlLD's was faster and more engaging, he got my vote :)
rookee - July 24, 2007 09:10 PM (GMT)
In the end, I must say TLD's was better. His combo was solid, but could've included a little less spamming. The last "arm roll" was what separated him from Webo, and gave him that extra creativity bonus. GJ.

Thanks? Yeah it was too basic. I underestimated Tldscorp and I think he'll have a good chance of killing me this match. And that last trick better have been on purpose and not out of luck tld. <_<
Wongton Spin - July 24, 2007 11:05 PM (GMT)
i voted webo. tlds combo looked like it waz pure luck. go webo! :banana:
ShortAssassin - July 24, 2007 11:11 PM (GMT)
Yeah I voted for Webo as well. That really looked like a botched trick that you got lucky on TLD.
purple_clover - July 24, 2007 11:21 PM (GMT)
da poll wont let me vote. i dont know who id vote 4 yet if i could. prolly tld bcz it waz fast
ShortAssassin - July 24, 2007 11:25 PM (GMT)
You need to use semi-proper English to vote. Actually, you just need 20 posts, 4 more and you're there.
Zombo - July 24, 2007 11:47 PM (GMT)
I think TLD probably caught a lucky break but it was nothing short of spectacular. Heck, some scientists' reputation are built on lucky breakthroughs so...
purple_clover - July 24, 2007 11:53 PM (GMT)
ya but still. i would change my mind if he can do it again. jus to make shure.
TLDScorp - July 25, 2007 02:01 AM (GMT)
Oops my breakdown is wrong :P I did a Twisted Sonic 23-12 > Rev. Wiper T1 >
Before that entire combo :P

Yeah you can get a reputation for getting lucky on a trick, but its kinda useless if you cant do it again.
AlmightyMalachi - July 25, 2007 04:59 AM (GMT)
Webo wins dude....TLD that was such a lucky catch...sloppy...NT dude
platypusvictim9 - July 25, 2007 05:24 AM (GMT)
Nullvote, Webo's had more variety, and Scorp's looked lucky, but the catch seemed pro, i dunno.....
kasra12321 - July 25, 2007 05:30 AM (GMT)
I voted WEbo cuz everyone knows that TLD's catch is completly luck, and if u take that out of the combo, u got a basic easy combo. Webo's combo and had variety in it
faulk - July 25, 2007 07:09 AM (GMT)
Well, TLD's looked lucky, but the move really has potential, so I voted for him.
Webo's combo is nice, looks like he's learning lots of variety, but I've still seen it all before :P...

So what if you cant repeat the trick? Thats no potential, thats luck

Chill dawg. The first guy who ever did TS 2.0 probably thought it was luck and unrepeatable. I'm just judging the videos on how fresh and full of potential they were :P.
DaThroat - July 25, 2007 07:31 AM (GMT)
i voted for TLDScorp because it just looked cooler. simple logic. its all about presentation.
Mats - July 25, 2007 11:25 AM (GMT)
TLD had the better video. Luck, or lack there of, is not a factor. It is what video is better that counts, not 'who got more/less lucky'.

So I say to you sir, read the poll question 'Who had the best video?'. Luck, or otherwise, TLD's was better, weather he can replicate the combo is immaterial.

Being able to repeat a trick is not the same as potential. Ideas have potential, repetition is entirely a question of skill and practice.

I have never seen someone yet get a reputation built upon being lucky on a single trick.
Edit: Voted TLDScorp.
Zombo - July 25, 2007 01:40 PM (GMT)
well although it does look flukey in the video, I see no reason why someone can't master this trick. In fact, I like it a lot.
Using your forearm to stop a horizontal aerial.
rookee - July 25, 2007 03:15 PM (GMT)
I can do it with a BackAround 100%, it isn't that hard to do.
firebird - July 25, 2007 03:47 PM (GMT)
If PS were 100% skill and 0% luck, then nobody would be able to produce a good combo. To do what TLD did isn't hard when you use a pen that long because it has more momentum. You only have to do a spin trick away from the COP without catching it and tilt your arm slightly so it can roll.
TLDScorp - July 25, 2007 04:34 PM (GMT)
Ugh just woke up and >_< im winning lol My pen aint that long, its jsut big for my hands. Its like a tiny bit longer then an MX. And i totaly agree with mats because voting on how gooda video is doesnt really come down to "what it could have been" or "If he could do it again", its really about wats tehre on the video itself. If you think it looks unsmooth/flukey like zomebo said, thats fine, just dont critisize on how the video "could have been this/that"
ShortAssassin - July 25, 2007 04:57 PM (GMT)
TLD can you address whether or not you meant to do that, because to me it looks like you just totally fucked up an Ext. TA.
TLDScorp - July 25, 2007 05:13 PM (GMT)
lol it wasnt meant to do that, i wanted to do like a Twisted Sonic Bust but the bust counter, but i stoped it in a wierd way and it slid up my hand, so i went along with it...
ShortAssassin - July 25, 2007 05:21 PM (GMT)
Oh you're right, it was a Twisted Bust. Anyway, I probably would have nulled if you had done the Twisted Bust correctly.

Measure your pen plz, my pen is 18 cm.
TLDScorp - July 25, 2007 06:11 PM (GMT)
my pen is 20cm, its a little off :P but i never had an MX before so xD Sorry rookee :P
Webo Splash - July 26, 2007 04:36 AM (GMT)
CHEATER! Haha just playing. I can see who will win. Grats dude. Bad sportsmanship is gay so yeah haha.
Teatime - July 26, 2007 07:33 AM (GMT)
Don't worry Webo we know you're good, just don't underestimate your opponent next time and give us a kick ass combo ;)
Webo Splash - July 30, 2007 03:50 AM (GMT)
Sooooooo close to a tie. Go Go Go!
DaThroat - July 30, 2007 09:25 AM (GMT)
50% to each side at this point in time. really thought TLD would win easily(no offence webo) :lol: .
