When I was preparing for this, I really though dropping a million names was a groundbreaking approach. But I got to give myself credit. I got sober and have changed a lot in my writing/as a person. Props to Fresco of course. He killed it.

Nah, what I'm saying is that's why there are 5 judges. I may have given it to Z, but as you can see by the final judging, it was a close battle and others would have voted for Fresco and it would have went OT anyway. At that point, all you can judge is that last round, so I would have given it to Fresco in OT.

Probably cuz Saurus doesn't an obvious gimmick so I don't know what exactly they're accused of copying. I just notice that it's a recurring theme that Illusion & Tantrum are clones of the Saurus but nobody explains it.
