LOL. I think the problem with that team was they were lacking some talent. :P


Oh so they are the same team then!

Ooooh, SMACK!

I agree with Jason... unless a handicaping system exists to even the odds of competition in order to provide an opportunity for every team to compete evenly with every other team, the Ribbon Hogs are unbeatable.

Just because they win a million challenges doesnt mean they win the other 4 million lol.

This team is like the Florida gators basket ball team in the season that just pasted. Everyone was gunning for them, but no one could stop them. Well... good luck all. :-)

Hey they are in our league and starting off with a full 1 point lead in DPC average over most of the other teams. For the next several weeks I've managed to insure that all internet connections between Europe and and Asia are corrupted. Any photo transmission sent from there to DPC will be enhanced by large amounts of JPG artifacts and noise. Should be no problem, after all "if ya ain't cheatin ... ya ain't tryin"

The way I look at it, if this team loses even one match, they're an utter, abject failure. Whereas any team that beats them will be carried on the shoulders of others like the giant-beaters they are.

Gimme the underdog role any day.

Team 5.0 will pull the mighty chariot of the one who beats them with any 5.0 mustang we can find or as many as it takes lol.

any competiitive team will put so much into beating them. They will be more likely to reshoot if it isn't perfect, knowing that they need high 6s or 7s.

Hehe well I do :)

Begin WPL history lesson

5D team scored somewhere around a 7.0 average in the five weeks of regular season, one week the average of the top 4 photographers was something like 7.5+. Had a 5-0 winning record, of course.

We then went to the playoffs and narrowly lost in the playoffs against the untouchables, we scored about a 6.8 and they around 6.85.

Was pretty much the same team, had Joey Lawrence, Nico Blue and Terje, De Sousa, Librodo and Scalvert replaced them.

End WPL history lesson

This time we are out for blood and want to improve on the 5D team record and go all the way so bring it on :P I for one haven´t shot a photo for DPC in about 7 weeks so I feel energized and up for the task!

Muahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa :P

It's NOT fair that we DPC7..a new team..new members..mostly new photographers ..charming and young *hihihihi* is going to against Ribbon Hogs in the 2nd week..our fav DPC photographers..:(

Bad Ribbon Hogs *spank all the Ribbon hogs's team members' butt with furious face* not fair! not fair!...now ..don't take any photo in the 2nd week. *Grinning*
05/14/2007 06:59:24 AM · #40
Don`t worry team DPC7, team Se7endipity will put an end any slim chance the ribbons hogs thought they had in week one.

In the last WPL we also won 5-0 and lost out in the semi`s.
Our photobowl shots were 7+, dam that still hurts.

05/14/2007 07:35:49 AM · #41
Yes, you will find the ribbon hogs desillusioned and whining after week 1.

Nothing is more assured of failure as any endeavor preceded by, "Watch this!"

Just remember that the only team to beat you - The Untouchables - are back for this season too! And we're gonna kick some serious *** AGAIN!
