If they are "told" to go on with Rev.4, they will no matter what... So don't bother.
I think the team is pretty strong and will come up with all needed points.

Right now the only vote I'm comfortable with casting is "oh, and also, I don't like changes". Since this poll doesnt show a hint of Hwbot relenting their proposed changes, its pretty much a dead poll. If they were open to not killing the Team Rankings, there would be a clear option to vote for "NO CHANGES".


Team PURE has some of the best overclockers and some of the best manuf supported overclockers in the business. Lets put them aside for a second because these proposals are not about "Team" anymore.

Lets instead take someone like Hicookie or Hipro or even Andre for that matter. Any one of these three at any given time can take every world record in every hardware category. What use do they have for the 400, 200, 100, 49 other members on their team? NONE! Hwbot feels this is good "Team Spirit"

Now lets take an average Joe and then a team of 400 average joes, not mid-rangers or upper enders, just your average joe overclocker. Put him and just for exaggeration sake 1000 average joe overclockers on the same team and have them compete against one Hicookie. Do the odds get better? Nope. Nothing against great overclockers with great manufacturer backing, but this scenario is a fruitless endeaver for 1001 overclockers.

Whats that you say? You say "But I'm confident in my growing skills and potential as an emerging GREAT overclocker". Well, I got news for you buddy, bring back another Fermi Fiasco where only 3 approved NDA overclockers recieve vital Cold Slow, Cold Boot Bug information and you can kiss your hopes, dreams and aspirations bye bye.

Its a rough go of it. Just like our buddy dread has pointed out, and as most of us have observed, hwbot has a deaf ear towards the members who don't blindly agree to their plans. WE've had a tremendous showing against this Revision by the community, the largest I've seen to date. What does hwbot do about it? Post up a poll asking you which Revision or Revision 4 will you accept? Heck, just about every revision up there is still Rev 4 or a baby step towards Rev 4.

Somebody please point out a flaw in my thinking in regards to what I percieve Rev 4 to be. I may be looking at it all wrong.
