    Any other way is being biased towards Dutch and Sarah but not Bats, despite the fact he came second.

    If batman has the better 'goal difference' he should qualify. Let's not do a Sepp Blatter and change the rules halfway through so our favourites can go through.

    Do you guys know me at all? :p If you did, you'd know who LZ's favourite was. ;)

    Anyway, majority rule it is. I'd like to see a few more opinions though before we set anything in concrete.

    Ill stop ranting and raving. I just like rules being followed.

    And i HATE Sepp Blatter

    Nah seriously, you have a fair point, probably best that I don't give what can be seen as preferential treatment.

    sarah Connor only came first because she got the easy draw! Dutch would have devoured Hannibal Lector! Boo-hiSS!!!!!

    So, Dutch fails to qualify despite being undefeated.
    A bit like the Ireland football team.

    Bit of a rough deal alright. I thought I was doing the fairest thing with my original plan of Bats -v- Dutch.

    Ah well. Rules is rules.

    Hmm, I see the machines thread has made a controversial start.

    I openly admit to being an optimus fanboy, but come on.

    How in the hell would a t800 even irritate Optimus?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,746 ✭✭✭✭Galvasean


    By speeding off on his motorbike, forcing a high speed chase, then blowing him up.

    Prime sees the good T-800 has done for humanity. Let's him live. Turns his back. Then blammo.

    Optimus would then go "what's that thing scratching my foot?"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    Sometimes there is no competition. The T800 was built to kill humans. It did quite alot of it in the terminator movies.

    But he was actually pretty piss poor at killing other robots. Like he had Sarah and John for help and only managed to kill another robot.

    Nature of the draw, it's unpredictable, sometimes characters get a kind draw, like Sarah Connor, Venom or even The Red Skull did. Then there are others who get it tough like Dracula.

    Sorry LZ, i reread that and can see how it seemed like criticism. I was just commenting on how Optimus kicks a$$, and how sometimes in life, no matter how many motorcycles you steal and smiles you simulate, you just cant win (Im looking at you arnie).

    It took Optimus to bring us together. :D

    Ha i wasnt aware we were apart.

    Running together hug

    I honestly cant see how one Borg could win this.....cause without the collective they wouldnt be Borg, they would just be normal people...

    In fact, one Borg is a contradiction in terms....

    Cause alone and without the collective, it wouldnt be a Borg

    Each Borg is the Collective and The Collective is each Borg.

    Collective = more than one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,746 ✭✭✭✭Galvasean


    Okay then, it is one Borg who is part of the Collective, but for reasons unknown more borg cannot come to it's aid at this moment in time.
    Happy?

    Ive got to start letting things go...
