Rezerection of breaking (blog 18) Politics

-how politics influence how your judged on breaking as opposed to the
actual skill
 
I have been asked by several people to write about this but I feel 
like there's some really common sense things here but I'll explain 
that later. Many judges vote on very different things, some people 
like tricks, others like dancing, some like foundation, and others 
like originality and or any combination of those (as well as other 
categories-such as they have no idea what they're looking for) sometimes
judges throw everything they look for to the side because they 
can't/don't seperate their personal feelings from their judgement.
 
With that being said
 
 If your that rude and mean to someone, they're naturally not going 
to like you as much. We've all been at that party with our friends 
 where the one person you don't like walks into the room, they don't
have to look at you or talk to you to feel like the party just got
worse. You then stop paying attention to the party and the fun you
were having and focus on what an asshole that person is.and vice 
versa that when someone comes into the party your pumped to see and
the party just got even more dope.
 
If you like someone they start off with +1 on the score card and 
if they don't like you -1. If they don't know either side it's even
at +O-.........
 
But that matters more in close decisions. When it comes down to it,
if you think you won, that's cool. But like I said before with 
judging- it depends on what has been seen at that moment. So if you 
don't want to leave it to the judges, destroy your opponents. If 
you destroy them and still lose, everyone in the building will know
and they'll let you know you got robbed unless your an asshole then
probably everyones happier they don't have to watch you anymore.
 
In terms of judging after the fact
 The video doesn't lie. But it also doesn't see what we see, it 
doesn't feel what we feel. And people don't always make the best 
decisions. But they're making the best decision that they feel at 
the time of the battle.
