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.

The expectations the former champ would fail to meet would be mine / fans / community etc.. 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? | ||

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. | ||

I don't think Oov is gonna get far. Not that I'd be disappointed, so I can't vote him. | ||
