Jensen is back!

Seeds are irrelevant, the game is evolving way too fast

Great, I hate you too. Every time I see you post it is some kind of negative or snide remark. Yoyo kids are not even close to the worst, that remark definitely needs something to back if up. This thread has thirteen pages of jensen fanboys arguing with Jensen haters arguing with those like myself, who are found in the middle. If you don’t like it, stay out of it.

This is so…simplistic

So your stance is if he did a whole routine well he would still have took last?
Or had no chance of winning?

He could probably have placed very well, I’m not saying he’s not good.

Ok so who’s seed where you talking about that was so out of date the competitor wasn’t relevant?

Jensen at BAC 2014

I thought this thread was over. There’s not much more to be said. :-\

So did I. I don’t know why Schnayke wanted to debate again, nor do I know why I’m playing his game, but I’m a little bored, that may be an explanation.

I think we all are that’s why we’re debating lol :stuck_out_tongue:

Hahaha, I really thought this thread was dead. It keeps coming back!

gets popcorn

You just said he could have done fine if he hadn’t messed up. You seem to be contradicting yourself.
also you seem to misunderstand why all past winners get a seed. It isn’t so they can respect everyone, it is the competitions recognizing their past achievements. I don’t think the people putting it on expect anything from them at all, other then maybe use the time they where given, in fact I know that.

;D

let it go my friend, the world ends in 12 years not tomorrow

yay, that’s my new sig

I said he could have done something nice
→ hypothetical

You asked which performance wasn’t relevant
→ reality

By the way, I don’t misunderstand the concept of seeds, I don’t understand it at all. Giving someone an advantage based on past achievements makes no sense to me.

Its not an advantage it is giving them time on stage thanking them for being such a good competitor in the past. There is an advantage to that but has nothing to do with the reason they give it out. So if you are trying to make since of that you won’t be able too. It wasn’t part of the equation. I see where you are confused now. :wink:

Did I say it has something to do with the reason they give it out?

You could also give some time on stage apart from the competition.

While I see absolutely nothing wrong with his yoyo performance, I definitely agree with this part. I think it’s pretty weird and speaks to some issues, but at least he seems to be enjoying yoyo and life.

At the end of the day I bet that CLYW makes just as much money whether Jensen dorked around and had fun at BAC or whether he practiced and brought his A game and blew everyone away with a 1st place performance. I really doubt that Jensen was sent to BAC by CLYW to win the competition, he was sent to represent CLYW and, at least in my opinion, he did so in an amusing way. As a guy who will never compete, has no interest in competing but does enjoy buying yoyos, trading for yoyos, interacting on the forum and Facebook, when I watched the video all I thought was “lol, looks like he had fun”. It hadn’t even occurred to me that he had done something “wrong”. Take that for what it’s worth. Possibly nothing.

Well nobody is talking about the 1st place performance so this is better than tryharding it.

Er… did you just call Rojas a “try-hard”?
