Either rA or Sync. rA has been off for months, and sync is well, sync.

Who will not meet your expectations this season.


Which former champ will dissapoint this OSL is very, very different from Who will not meet my expectations this season.

The first means which former champ will show a disappointing performance this OSL, which is the question of the poll.

The latter means which former champ will not meet the expectations you've preset for him.

These are two very different questions.


In order to dissapoint, one must have expectations that a person doesn't meet. It is the same question. Just friggin vote you understand what it means.


I doubt people are going to translate the poll to the way you're intending for it to be translated. Yes, I know what it means, from reading your posts, but I doubt that most will define disappoint the way you're doing so. I don't think the poll results will going to show what you exactly wanted to see.

To fail to satisfy the hope, desire, or expectation of.

It is wrong to say that disappointment cannot exist without expectation. Disappointment can mean either: 1. To fail to satisfy the hope; 2. To fail to satisfy the desire, or 3. To fail to satisfy the expectation of. With the way the question is current worded, I'm strongly led to believe that many people will translate "disappoint" as either definition #1 or definition #2, as opposed to definition #3, which is what Manifesto really wanted to ask.

And Sync leading the poll with 31% proves that tfeign is right. We do not have high expectations for Sync, do we Mani?

tfeign is right, yes. But not on the account that his definition is correct. Him being right in his prediction only shows how people have no idea about what the actual question is.

Sync i'm amazed made it. So he cannot disappoint imo.
ra has not been a champ form for a long time, the only way he can disappoint me is by getting raped in all his games.
I have some expectations for ChoJJa though... but he might let me down so i voted for him.

The only person I care about is rA, but he's gonna win OSL so I won't be disappointed.
I don't think Oov is gonna get far. Not that I'd be disappointed, so I can't vote him.

the only poll Sync could lead with such a margin could be about disappointment

Hmm, I voted Sync, but considering I expect him to suck I voted wrong.

Correct answer probably would be July. I see him going down in groups...

That's right, I said it.

Oov... because of the curse. And I have no expectations for Sync, so I would be surprised to see him advance out of his group (unless he gets a pansy group).
