The curse of having too many tabs open that they all only said "Save My'

Well he said he was "being fair" which is basically asking for that when you're doing almost nothing to that end

I mean, if anything, that post was more in the vein of "I regret doing that now"

23. Cecil Harvey
CI - 1/40 [def. Zidane, 179-155]
CII - 3/45
CIII - 10/50
CIV - 5/55
CV - 5/60
CVI - 13/65
CVII - 19/70
CVIII - 6/75
CIX - 29/75
CX - 4/75
CXI - 33/75
CXII - 19/75
CXIII - 15/75
CXIV - 29/102
CXV - 11/100
CXVI - 24/100
CXVII - 5/100
CXVIII - 5/100
CXIX - 12/100
CXX - 23/100

In his twenty appearances, Cecil has only fallen outside of the top quarter three times, and he remains the character with the most appearances with none in the bottom half. He's also one of only two characters to have been lawyered twice (in CXIV and CXV). His numbers drop a little here, from 84.56% to 84.23%, but he holds steady at 3rd all-time.

lawyered in two straight contests, jesus. That's unfortunate.

True I would not have expected that almost pointless gesture to become relevant over the course of the contest either.
---

one of those lawyerings was the best day in smfffc history

almost pointless gesture

We seem to have different definitions of "almost pointless."

Elab?

It was almost pointless instead of entirely because the odds of it actually mattering were very low. That it actually came up once after 78 rounds doesn't change that fact

Cecil was the original elim, but Celes was lawyered and would have gone in his place... but then Cecil was also lawyered.

HOW is that even possible?

More elaboration:

The *very end* round rush:
- Inviso saves Celes
- seeing 'vis saved Celes, Gmun saves [unimportant, I forgot]
- Inviso yells WAIT SHIT THAT'S EARLY
- Gmun & Inviso cry over killing their fav charas
- Inviso tracks down an early lefty Cecil save, lawyering out *his* fav chara instead
---

I second the sentiment of "I don't care if host saves in the first post, I consider it a perk of hosting"
---

also wasn't that the leftybot incident, or am I mixing up my lawyerings
---

not only that but lefty's early save was a script that messed up when he wasn't at his computer. hence being known as leftybot to this day.
---

I wasn't sure if that was also the leftybot lawyering but it might've been yes
---

that was the script lawyering, yes

CXV was eaed
---

Is that what prompted the no bots/scripts rule or did that come later

if you want to be technical, I killed Cecil by intentionally waiting to save at the start of rounds out of "fairness"

Wasnt Nanis the one who would complain about that

So Nanis killed Cecil!

Oh you remember that
Wow I didn't even realize lefty is doing this

Respect++
