Poor Sportsmanship and Libel in Arcadia

Currently on RacerX Gullwings Land, above an object that he owns, is floating text stating the following.

"Please touch this and get a land mark to a place where you can play this after the game expo is over and this game looses because you can't add money to the pot or buy expensive decks of cards you'll never use again."



My problem is obviously with the last part, a blatantly direct attack at The Collective. Just because his game is not drawing enough income to satisfy him does not mean he should be allowed to make untrue and slanderous remarks on land used for the competition.

He had the same time to prepare, the same knowledge prior, and just as even a chance as everyone in the competition. In fact, CastleWars was fully set-up in the first two days of our month-long preparation process for Arcadia. RacerX even remarked to me and Matthias in that first week that he should make a new version of CastleWars in order to draw more revenue. It's not our fault that he didn't.

I know that Matthias Zander and myself have poured many hours into this project and built a game that a lot of people are enjoying and I don't appreciate the actions of RacerX at all. I have already contacted Ben about getting this floating text removed. My intentions for bringing it to the public forum are simple... to be sure it gets done.

To all other contestants, thank you for conducting yourselves honorably and with dignity. There is a long ways to go in this competition and it will be fun watching it progress. Good luck and have fun.

But anyone out there not using there cards just wondering?
I know I'd never use mine. (had I botherd to buy some)
If so I guess this this accusation of me committing slander would be slanderous

I use my cards and battle controller just about any time I can.
