Im just happy as a pig in mud that I got the Rot EMBLEM AND SKIN There is a problem with that. If only two hundred people can win the top prize, then more than likly they are spending buttloads of money to get it as well as hours playing. Plus not to mention that most of the tournments have been starting at times most acceptable to regions that are more likely to pay and spend hours playing.

So far all tournments have started around (dont quote me) 12:00 noon or 1pm in Japan but here in the US it starts around 9 00pm in Califoinia meaning that it starts late at night for the rest of the country (11pm for where I live). Thus not the people that spend more money and play for hours live in areas where that is more accepted but they also get a head start on time (in Japanese culture...it is custom to go home around lunch time for a few hours to rest so the tournments start when they get home to rest.)  Thus we are at a disticnt disadvantage. And the ones that do spend hours playing and a buttload of money are rewarded with aircraft that while are limited can easly be match by other players standard crafts. So when you see someone flying a special craft or have a limited time emblem it isnt so much a show of skill but rather a show of how much money they have in their accounts and how much time they spend playing games.
