People who were WINNING got the award too. That didn't have anything to do with the sportsmanship award. I was going 2-1 when I recieved it.Also clapping and such had nothing to do with it either.Dragon Master said:This good sportsmanship is ridiculous! So if you lost every single game you get a better prize than those who work there butts off to actualy win. Although some of the people I did observe deserved the award but seriously those that ran this event should not have spoken or advertised for this award. All this award served as is a doggy treat for those that thought, if they pat the judges on the backs and clap every time someone with a referee T-shirt said something they would get a reward. This should have been something where know one knows about a reward, and a judge sees someone do whatever out of the ordinary, follow this person up through the tournament then give the person or persons a token of gratitude. Also it would have been nice to know what many of the people did to get them the award. I saw many people especially in the 10- group doing good deeds. So maybe instead of giving particular people Poke boxes for a year I think packs could have been given to everyone at Worlds.( Of course I'm not an expert at public relations).

The judges were looking fo people who didn't get upset after loosing, peoples who shook hands with others even after a loss,people who turned themselves in for their own mistakes , and stuff along those lines.

If there were angry parents out there, please have them contact POP directly ([email protected] ). We certainly didn't see them there. And your comments were more on the lines of "Destructive Critisism" instead of constructive.
Please don't start another smear campaign like you guys did in Nevada.
