I think you've missed the point a bit. I didn't badmin to balance out teams or something. I badminned because it was fun, for me, and for (some/most) of the people on the other team.
That's partly where OP was confused. The reason they were winning so much was because it was 2 v 10. The reason it was 2 v 10 was because I was doing my badmin funtime, not the other way around.

Wut!?

Oh I see. He was trying to prove a point.
I think the main difference between the forum model and the server model is that the forums don't really have massive competition - ie, if I'm banned here, there aren't a bunch of other equally populated blockland forums.

If you were doing it to have fun, I suppose that is another story entirely. In fact, I'd do it too :D

Indeed.
I actually once designed a game where it was the entire server in biplanes against me, a giant blue guy with homing rockets. Tons of fun was had.
Just to say that there's very much a grey area between badminning and purposely differentiated team setups.
I've been experimenting with that a lot also, actually. If you've ever played for example my Cbrown town Run, then you know exactly what I mean - a couple guys with miniguns and helicopters are a close match for 30 people with mere bows, but people complain anyways.

Badspot's reasoning makes perfect sense.
It's like saying, Muammar Gaddafi leads Libyan Government, so he should do as he pleases and the U.N shouldn't try and stop him.
Also Cucumberdude was just having a little bit of fun and wasn't doing this the entire time. I've always known him to pull out a super-powered weapon every so often to spice things up in a minigame.
