Sure sounds like elitism all up in here.

It's a fun idea. I was making a replay for it but it glitched and I couldn't be bothered with fixing it just then. Why limit yourselves to hosting and competing in solely "professional" events anyway? So what if it's not "make the best madman/decap/skeet/split/generic replay making term"? Heck, this specific idea has even been used several times already such as in this event two years ago and it was popular, and a success. I ended up winning that one too, with Nightin coming in second. It was a fun, alternative challenge that I enjoyed making the replay for.

That's the reason I make replays anyway. The moment it stops being a game, I'm off.
