    Operation: Evolution was a failure.

    I think the fine staff and administration of FFR and Thirdstyle might have hit FFR a little hard (bro) by taking the gamewhore competition approach to get people to play thirdstyle more. Three people have IMed me saying that after this competition they're never playing Thirdstyle again because it was practically like forcing a cigarette smoker to smoke a whole carton in a day, ergo -too much of a good thing-. Playing 10+ hours of thirdstyle for an FFR token is obviously draining and I'm not sure that this approach necessarily worked to get more people on Thirdstyle in the long run (of course it worked for the day).

    I have a new-found respect for Thirdstyle, I'll play again.

    I don't think they expected the competition to be this intense.

      TS sucks and any idea to get people to play it is just stupid.

        I enjoyed 9th place, and dragon890 enjoyed ts so much that even after he won he kept going

        you don't speak for everyone, just those who don't like to do vrofl runs, in which case why would you even attempt it to begin with?

                First place:
                262 plays.

                262x5 = 1310
                1310/60 = 21.83

                Seriously?

                  I wouldn't have wanted to touch the reqs in this one haha, even if I didn't have work today. I deliberately passed this one up for more than one reason. I said this in another thread, but the event was going to backfire, and it did.

                  However, I think your poll is slightly misleading. It's obviously worded in a way to curve in favor of one side. I'm going to play TS more in the near future, but the event obviously didn't provide any "new found respect" for me. I think the poll should be reworded.

                  edit: lmao ok I see, Rushy

                  I might be mistaken, but didn't you originally hail from TS?

                      The one time when I actually played Thirdstyle, I had a major skill drop on FFR haha. This idea was a bad idea for me so I'm glad I didn't do it haha.

                        Poll was mainly intended for thirdstyle haters going into this competition which is why it's worded like it is.

                            I didn't take the challenge too seriously- First, the song was way to long and was boring, second, the chart was awkward for me. That just put me off the challenge.

                            I still like TS though.
