You bet it is :D why do you think we have judges? So I can sit here and google at the results by myself? :P
Final results will be out on the first post as soon as I have the last of the judges decisions.

I get the feeling that I'll never win one of these frikkin' competitions- I'm always 2nd or 3rd place. Oh well. I already have this idea for a great trick, and when I execute it cleanly within the next month or so, it will pretty much guarantee me a top-place fin(n)ish. I mostly guarantee that, unless I dont actually end up hitting it well.

Novice Sick 3

1.Troy E
Good Variety and difficulty - cool first link. Last move is a little easy. Well executed.

2. Matt C
Very close for first. If the legover was something slightly more difficult I think you would have got this. Good variety - dexes, duck and a spin and good execution.

3. Fletcher F
Well hit and some difficulty but very one sided and not much variety. Symp pixie and symp mirage are basically the same move in my opinion.

4. Kensuke
Good variety of components and hit fairly solidly. I thought the whirl looked a little thin but still ok.

5. Chris M
Fairly similar to the above combo but I thought both the difficulty and the links of Kensuke were slightly better - your easy move is in the middle while his was at the start - so the links weren't that hard. Also try to stand a little straighter.

6. Ben R
The return of da da curve. I hear that this is Anssi's favourite move of all time and I like it too. Last dex was pretty late but I think it was clean which is good. The refraction looked messy. Still a nice combo and two moves that you don't see very often.

7. Logan
I put this up this high because I thought the execution was really good and everything looked solid. Difficulty was a little lacking - good variety though.

8. Ben A
Looked fairly solid. more variety would have been nice.

9. Aleksey
Looks good. The stall for the butterfly is too toey though.

10. Julien R
Looks ok but I think you got a little lost into the mirage.

11. Danny P
Very deep dex on that butterfly - probably would be better to do it later - especially for harder moves.

12. Dominik W
Combo is a litte easy to compete with those above. Also try not to pause on each move - work on having some flow.

13. Ben B
Nice clean dexes but as above - work on flow.

14. David S
Fairly basic combo. Also I think the timing of the pixie could be a lot better - it looked like a pixie set toe stall as opposed to a downtime pixie - if you're going to hit sets try components afterwards.

15. David M
Nice combo and good variety. Unfortunantly the symp fairy is "the". If it wasn't you would have probably placed in the top 3.

I'd like to know who the judges were officially, and then I'd like to know if they all reside in Australia. Then, I'd like to know why they were picked, and by whom, and how the possibility of water draining in the opposite direction may have influenced their decision-making. If I recall correct;y, without looking back int his thread, Kevin Regamey was a judge, so that would emilinate the all-aussie judging panel concern. Please elaborate however.

because we're a day ahead, we just check modified early, see the results, then copy them.
then we ride our kangaroo's to the croc farms where we all work.
Jeremy ran a judging workshop in the lead-up to Australian champs, which I took part in. Nic came over for the comp and saw how awesome Jeremy and I were first hand. When his retinas had healed he asked me judge for this, and i declined. Then he sent me some cash and asked me to put him first. I took the cash but didn't put him first.

The judges this month were Kevin(Canada), Dyalan(Australia), Jeremy(Australia), Nic(New Zealand). I was hoping to have Phil M (New Zealand) and Ken S (Japan) but they were both too busy.
If anyone has a problem with the selection of judges then feel free to let me know so that I can appoint you to be in charge of finding judges for next month, because finding experianced footbag players willing to give up a few hours to judge online competitions is no easy task.

I'm always amazed how low I place. Not because I think I should be placed any higher, but because every single entry was so ass kicking! Way to go everyone :)

paul come on, dude......
since all the dexes are just not there (hes moving around air),
its just a kinda sloppy same side butterfly.

i really like jordens style and his fresh combos but this move
is just nothing. i wouldnt complain if he wasnt that good.
where is the point in pretending to have hit something when
its obvious that its not clean?
