And puppies piss and shit on the carpet.
You have REALLY confirmed your puppy status with that laughable remark. In addition to the things I previously said about why you do not see landrace strains winning Cups I can add that Cup competitions have long lost any and all credibility.
It has become big business, it is like the Mardi Gras bringing in tourists from all over the world to spend their money hand over fist. It is largely about who brings in the most advertising dollars and who hands out the most freebies and who slips the right number of people envelopes of cash and who sends the best hookers to the right hotel rooms.
If you put ANY stock whatsoever in ANY strain that has won a Cup after 2005 you might as well believe in Santa Claus, The Easter Bunny and The Tooth Fairy. And even before that, going back about another 4 or 5 years you could count on about 1 out of every 3 or 2 out of every 5 winners to have actually won on merit and merit alone.
It has become a dog and pony show, it's turned into Bozo's Big Top. It has lost ALL credibility.
One problem I have with the more recent Cup winners is many are unstable hermie prone strains. That sort of thing was never taken into consideration in competitions but as time passes such traits are becoming more and more common and I believe things like that should now begin to be factored into the judging and help decide who wins.
If someone were to grow 10 plants and get 4 or 5 different phenotypes and have true hermie problems I don't care if the good phenotype that didn't hermi would be more potent than another strain where out of 10 plants there were 2 phenotypes and did not have a hermie among them would be. I could not give the nod to the unstable strain knowing that my vote might be what results in it winning and knowing that so many people make the mistake of putting too much emphasis on a strain winning a Cup these days that so many would race to their computers to order the unstable strain.
And consider how the judging is performed. Sampling strain after strain. How can someone actually know or accurately claim that after a few hits if the next few that would naturally make them higher made them higher if they would have had the same number more hits from the strain before? At what point does pleasurable impairment begin to cloud one's judgement? How does one know if the big rush they just got actually came from the hit or hits they just took or if it is actually due to the last hit or hits of a strain having a killer creeper affect?
The testing procedure was always flawed to some degree. Unless there were at least a four hour or longer break between samples how could someone accurately judge what strain was really responsible for what and to what degree? I read an article written by someone who was a judge a couple years back year and he referred to it as basically being; "a pub crawl." He said after a while you are only guessing if something is better or not. You're too hign and stoned to be able to accurately judge anything at all.
Then factor in the well known behind the scene politics that goes with Cups now and consider the well known cases of attempts to influence judges, like when Arjan was caught and barred from the competition one year, and then there was the Ooky Kabuki" affair where it seems a couple of con artists from NYC tried to pass off a wicked strain of weed, "Ooky Kabuki," as if they'd grown it themselves, when in all probability, they just bought it from an Amsterdam dealer, along with other irregularities known to have occurred, and occurred more and more as time passed since the competition began.
Part of the reason for the breakup of the original Green House Seeds was after Shantibaba's last win he could see that it was already turning into a farce and he said he was not going to enter into any more Cup competition. Arjan, the advertising and marketing part of the team, was/is greedy and wanted Green House Seeds strains in every competition because he knew that regardless of a Cup win becoming less and less meaningful each year the masses didn't know that and a win equated to big dollars rolling in, and that is all he cared about. So that, and his ego and hie lies about actually breeding rather than being the business guy of the team, were all part of the breakup and Shantibaba sold out, took his genetics with him and opened Mr. Nice seeds. About two years later Arjan was caught trying to buy a Cup and was barred from the competition that year, and that is when Neville, who was part owner in the Green House Coffee Shops, finally had enough of Arjan too and he sold out and took his genetics and split.
That many years ago Shantibaba could already see that the HTCC, and other competitions like it, were losing credibility and were turning into dog and pony shows and he wouldn't have anything more to do with them, and he hasn't entered one since. Arguably Shantibaba is the best, or at least the most famous, modern breeder and who has shaken the cannabis world to it's very core with his strains and he won't enter any Cup competition because he knows they are a joke, that they are a farce, that they are not legitimate, that they totally lack any and all credibility. But you hold up a Cup win as if it is some great honor and irrefutable proof of excellence in breeding skill.
How can anyone believe their remains any shred of credibility to a Cup win anymore? How can you actually believe it and attempt to use it as if it is some sort of gold standard, a mark of excellence, when it is anything but that?
God how you puppies amuse me!
If you do, if you actually believe there is a shred of credibility left in a Cup win I can understand you much better now. You are totally clueless about everything .. which would of course include the way the testing for levels of THC was altered resulting in instant massive increases of reported levels.
You are ready to go into that subject now and explain it all to all of us, aren't you? After all you are the basement pollen chucking expert who created his own Roadside Red so you know it all, you know the entire history of cannabis, you are an expert on strains that died out before you ever began to get high, you are the all seeing, all knowing Carnac the Magnificent of cannabis, or at least you want everyone to believe that you are, so go ahead and prove it and tell us all about the way THC testing was altered and how it changed things. The all seeing, all knowing Carnac the Magnificent of cannabis would doubtlessly know all about it, so come on now, stop dragging your feet, show us all your true level of expertise about pot from the past and the present.
If you know one one-thousandth about the past and pot and how it has changed over the decades you HAVE to know all about the testing procedure alterations so why won't you inform all those who do not know? Why are you afraid to spill the beans? Why do you keep ducking and dodging and ignoring the question when answering it will prove that one and all that you truly are an expert par excellence?
