So? Make a complaint, sue me, put me before a tribunal. All I have to do is prove that the information was/is in the public domain. You just need to know how to find it. There's no law against collating it all into a neat little resume for easier reading. After its published I would welcome any legal challenge to its accuracy or right to privacy and/or inter ats the end of it. But if the tourney actually starts with Xanth then no way back.

It is not my place to complain, and if you re-read my earlier post you will see that I clearly state this only becomes valid if the info you posted was obtained via means that would make this a breach of data protection.

Edit: P.s. Your Avatar is sooooo Edwardipov 2005.

Ahhh ...its all clear now. Well, you tell Xanth that the site will be up 21 Jan. He has until then to withdraw, wether he/you think he has a right to enter or not. Thats the bottom line. I'm over you two poofs, end of story.

No further corresspondence will be entered into until post 21 Jan.

Calm down Suzianne. You confuse me, you know? You go through the forums with an overtly feminist attitude and then when you come into a situation like this, where positive discrimination is occuring (something you should surely be against), you revert to wanting your specialist female group. I don't get it, do you want to be specialised? Doesn't that make those feminist values somewhat undermined?
your cries of gender discrimination are so hypocrytical Liam. Wasn't it you that started the'Who will win Miss World' thread.? Why don't you stick your false political correctness right up your ring....
One of the reasons i entered the tourney was simply just to get a game with other women on the site who don't frequent the forums..not to play against the likes of xanthos and friends.

I'd like to thank arrakis for his efforts but i'm pulling out..
Thanks a lot plebs

Hehe, fair enough, busted. I'm amazed it took so long though. I'm out of the tourney 🙂

This is crazy. Public disclosure to force someone to retreat from a womens only tournament? You're actually having a serious discussion here, aren't you?

Well, I guess we really don't know much about each other here at RHP. Your general development emotionally seems to have stopped when you were about 8 years old.

This is too pathetic to be taken seriously, and too amusing to resist reading.

Please keep it up. 🙂

skeeter's a real piece of work.

Previous escapades have included threatening to hack into one of the mod's work websites and denial of service of same livelihood, unless she got her way.

And, the cream of the crop, IMO, was chasing one nick all over the internet abusing him and stalking him (on a much grander scale than her current harrassing of X) all because she found out (in her real world investigations of his nick) that he was gay.

Apparent intelligence, idiocy, bigotry and psychosis all in one little package.

Since there's nothing in the ToS that prohibits paying members of this site form entering any tournament on the grounds of their sex, to discriminate against men (or indeed women if it were visa versa) for this purpose is wrong. I pay to play here, I have a right to enter any tournament which my rating allows and I'm not gonna listen to you moan about it. this site.

I'm going to do my best to win the below 1300 tournament just to p;ss you off.
There's nothing in the ToS that prohibits you from entering my clan, either. But you can bet your sweet donkey you're not staying in once I check the list of names.

Arrakis wants to set up a tournament, Arrakis gets to decide who can play. The ToS is not the be all and end all.

The only difference between ranking criteria and any OTHER criteria for a tournament, is that the ranking criteria is automatically checked by the site. Other criteria - countries, gender, name including a 'W' - have to be checked manually.

I'm thinking of setting up a tournament for people with the capacity to construct logical arguments. Don't bother applying.

I'd say the same about you and a tournament concerning reading threads all the way through before posting...

As wucky said, this is unmitigated crap. Discrimination, sexism, feminism, specialization. Please. None of that is an issue! We just want a tournament where we can play some other girls, and not have the men push their noses into it. Yet, you men all go on and on and on about some stupid crap like "it's saying the women can't play on the men's level" or "why a separate women's championship?" when this isn't even about a championship at all! But I'll tell you what this IS about... it's about a bunch of guys who can't act like grown-ups... what exactly does it cost YOU personally to let us have one little tournament??

Forget it... I'm with wucky and will be withdrawing asap. Go enjoy your victory guys...
