Quote:I am curious and it may be that I am just not seeing it but how would droping in rank help someone in the playoffs? Since it's 1st v 4th and 2nd v 3rd droping to 4th offers no benefit at all as far as I can see. What am I missing?So this is all about ware ruining the league by destroying everything?
Since you are railroading us by figuring out you can't beat us we move to be allowed to choose our opponent in the playoffs since now a team can intentionally throw games to drop rank and some teams aren't willing to put up competitive matches with us. And some teams may be much weaker now.
Also best of 5 ftw.
Also barring a real upset chaning this probably won't change the outcome of the finals, again unless I am missing something. -
We can just have another Captains vote to change it. Seems like a good idea to me.

Quote:I enjoyed seeing something other than a straight jump lineup to go against last night. However, the way it was played made me (and I'm sure others) think it was just there to stall and keep kills down, rather than actually try to win. The comments about WARE putting up less kills against FAP than any other team sort of cemented that idea for us, that, that was the only goal of bringing it. (That and the stalker being out of hide for probably 8 minutes of the match and landing one AS on me then no longer really trying after that.)
The biggest thing that got me was, if you were going to try and turtle? Why not use one of the rooms that tech lab offers. There are at least 2 or 3 spots in the room with the small set of stairs, and as far as Atlas went? If you guys would have taken the globe we'd have had a match on our hands, at least having to really work for that first kill.
At any rate, I tend to believe what Smoke said about the intentions of last night, so on that note good matches, they were fun to see something different even if they weren't executed all that well. (Honestly not intended as a slight, I'm from dUmb, we tossed stuff together all the time for match night and saw how it worked. Poorly usually.)
The reason to stay in the middle was to try and control it, as smoke said we wanted to win. It's unfortunate our two best stalkers weren't able to make it I think that match would have went differently if they had.
The second map we had hoped you would bring the dom's and the tanks could get the dom's off target and lessen the spikes and make you guys vulnerable while removing pressure from our offense. I would still like to see how a double taunt line up fairs against your dom line up. The fact you need everyone on target and in range make me curious to see how that kind of off target disruption would do.
We basically gambled on an inside map for the third match hoping that replacing the stalker and tank with 2 blasters would get us the kills we didn't get on the lab map.
You think we didn't play to win but had we brought jump v jump or jump v dom that would have been us not playing to win. This was a chance and we took it. We didn't win but we also didn't loose 40-0 as we have in our first practice with ware so we where happy about that.
More importantly to me, I made this team to have fun and last night we genuinely looked forward to the matches and had a blast. For me (not speaking for my team) that was a win. -
Quote:Yeah we kind of figured you lost power snow in oct go figure. We really did have so much fun shame you missed itSeems like the lulz were epic, I am sorry I couldn't make it and wish we had more time to develop the line up we wanted. I will try to come up with a better excuse next time.

Quote:Ohhh I've been there its neat. Also Hai Turg!My home town. Wish I knew, I'd drive up from DC just to say hi.
If you haven't decided on a place yet, consider the Jekyll and Hyde pub in Greenwich Village. My entree of choice is the Jekyll Steak, with some Old Peculier to wash it down.

Quote:Regarding internals, the leaders of shenanigans are being selfish with doing basically only internals and playing worse teams for their own lulzy benefit of not being seen as a bad team. It's a shame that their entire roster miss out on valuable practice and experience because their captains care so much about how a team made up of random players looks on a game.
To be fair they did originally set up practices with Exile and Fap, but Exile droped them for WARE and I droped our practice for other reasons. The only ones they really won't practice against is WARE. It is a bit painfull to play vs WARE which is why the Honey Badgers have huge dills. -
Thanks all for the Birthday wishes both here and on facebook

Quote:The BAF and Lambda changes are going to stay, regardless of how people complain. Hardly anyone was doing other trials and they needed a way to get you slugs to do it. Atleast they aren't taking Emps away altogether from the trial.
Quote:To that end: this change will not be going live with Issue 21 Special Update: Media Blitz. Have no fear, your Empyreans for completing those trials will not be touched.

I think all teams should be open to swapping practice partners out on the nights that they have planned.
I agree it kinda breaks up the night and if you have one group that ends after 3 matches you can switch to another and not feel like you wasted a night.
I'll mention the shared Wednesday or Monday possibilities with everyone Sunday before or after matches and get back to you. -

Just in case Kat forgets we will also be drafting.
