At that point, it was the biggest waste of time on a video game I’ve ever had.
I was playing in a Madden tournament two years ago and went through a week of qualifying for the two-day bracket play. The bracket started on a Saturday, and I went 3-0 in the double-elimination tournament to qualify into Sunday. I played great just to find out I couldn’t play on Sunday because of a last-minute emergency. Four hours of a tournament, not to mention the hours of practice and qualifying, just to forfeit. At that point, it was the biggest waste of time on a video game I’ve ever had.
