Alright, I'm assuming that the catcher of the snitch was predetermined as it was in the R v. S game...but still?! That ending is extremely disappointing. Disappointing and any other number of crazy synonyms for that word that you can think of...This is sort of a rant, but I just want to know that I'm not alone in thinking this way. -sniff, growl, sniff-

For some reason I doubt it was predetermined. But I can't go from blind guessing. Ask Beni. But I think Mike just wanted to finish the game. Honestly I hated it.
It wasn't fun, it was turned into a competition of who could get on and be active alot and thats not what its meant to be. Its meant to be fun. Not treated like life or death "I gotta post in the quiditch thread since I'm online at the moment."
Beaters, we can't go hitting a bludger every post, theres only TWO in the game. I had a real hard time figuring out where either of you were because you were hitting a bludger somewhere different each post. (Mind you I had an even harder time figuring out where half the Huffle team was...)
Anywhos not to go on a tirade, but, try to at least remember its not a REAL game, or competition. And I hold myself to that as well.

Yea, I am pretty disappointed on how the game ended too. It ended to quickly. And about me hitting a bludger almost everytime, sorry about that. Guess I got a little carried away about knocking someone off their broom.

Sorry guys butting in cause I feel bad about the game and such would like to clarify a few things. I'm not all that impressed about how the game ended either. Unfortunately Mike was not told by Ryder to post that he had caught the snitch but Huffle did actually win. I recived the PM from Ryder Hailey today explaining that Huffle had won and I went into the Quidditch Match and Mike had already caught the snitch. I'm not sure when the PM was sent as I was away for the weekend and hadn't been on But Mike wasn't supposed to, when he did, post that he had caught the snitch. He was, in the end though, supposed to catch it. Which makes things difficult. So I'm sorry to all you's guys because I would have loved the game to go on much longer too and have a much better ending with both the seekers chasing down the snitch. I also, though it is legal, am not very impressed with Mike's using of the woronski Feint (I spelt that wrong I think) because it is a very difficult move and I really don't think I could see a 5th year student being able to pull off that move. And I will be discussing both these points with Mike myself later on. And Corey as for half the Huffle team, they were missing. We were posting in Abi for a while because she wasn't able to get on (After her first post thatis) and then she returned. But we were missing a player and others only appeared sometimes, and it was all very confusing. Plus with the bludger thing I did try and post who I actually hit it at and that I was chasing one at different times rather than just hitting them all the time, though I know we did hit alot, I seemed to somehow keep up with it, though I can't speak for the other beaters. But yeah Sorry about the match guys, I too owuld have liked it to continue on longer and once Seanna returns she will be back to playing seeker for Hufflepuff and Mike will once again be a chaser where he can't cause as much damage

The thing is, Ryder sent me and Seanna the results of who was determined as the catcher of the snitch. Assuming that Seanna was absent, and that Mike was the alt, I PM'd him with the news. I didn't expect such a quick response, but then again I did say, "Catch one for the cripple." I don't know if I'm in trouble or not.... but sorry.

You wouldn't be in trouble at all Benita. From what I understand from what ryder said Mike caught it before he was notified or something, like before the decision had been made. Ryder did also PM me and tell me what was happening and asked who the seeker for Huffle was. But yeah you ain't in any trouble its just the confusingness of Quidditch at this time.

Psh, Beni. Nobody's in trouble. I knew the catcher would be decided outside of the game, and it would all be a luck of the draw sort of thing. My issue was simply with the snitch being caught so...abruptly. Can't blame you for that.
