BuzzerBeater Forums

I could not agree more with this statement.

Ignoring mutual TIE requests is ruining Buzzerbeater. I hope the BBs step in with some solution to force people to reply.

I could not agree less.

While I've yet to receive or issue a mutual TIE request, I fail to see how/why:

a) Buzzerbeater should put something into place that ensures your ability to better milk the system.

b) How they would put something like this in place when not everyone playing the game is as enthusiastic or active as some of us are and might not even check their emails, etc. in time to answer.

As the previous poster stated ... the advantage of not being the guy issuing it is not having to answer. Just because a salesman may think the car he wants to sell me is the greatest car ever and he tries desperately to convince me of that, doesn't mean I have to buy it.

Ok - I will come out of my self imposed silence.

What if the person you are requesting the mutual TIE with doesnt read or understand the language you are sending the message in?

Great thread - I like the way someone steps in and doesnt know if its serious or not, then someone posts to comment on the underlying sarcasm running throughout the thread... then someone gives a deadly serious answer... then someone like me just comes in and says something to keep the thread going... who will respond next?

a) someone taking the thread seriously
b) someone pretending to take the thread seriously but who understands this is a wind up
c) someone who knows its a wind up and adds a serious comment to lead everyone to believe he is taking it seriously
d) someone who still cant work out if this is a serious debate or not and is posting to try and gain further responses to work out if indeed it is serious or not.
e) Juicepats
