Sorry to hear you've had such a bad experience there Eskimo Spy, makes me feel sad and i wasn't even online at he time! 
, I hope you have better luck next time, don't let this put you off, Invite the friends you regularly team with... less likely to let you down.
Good Luck in the future.
Mother.
I've calmed down now, but I was livid at the time.
Okay i'd admit it's partly my fault since I was 10 mins late due to circumstances outta my hands.
So as soon as I got to the hollows I start recuit those who'd posted. I got as far as one when the some of the rest turned up at Karsis with only one space left. I would've felt bad if i'd quit the team i'd already started and joined them so I stood my ground.
I kinda felt sorry for the guy they'd recuited who had the trial since my teammate was laying into him.
Anyway my point is that although i'm still a bit dissapointed that they went off without me i'm not gonna hold a grudge against them.
Besides i did get a successful team set-up which was an emotional journey to put it nicely -> Hardest Successful Cavern Trial Ever?
Now @Eskimo-Spy
I'm not evil.
I'd just like to say thanks to all the people who replied to my post for the Cavern Trial.
Yeah thanks for forming up your on team with someone else who had the mission, and deciding not to include me.
I'm very dissapointed, i'd gone and made time tonight to do this and obviviously you didn't care that i'd posted up to orginize this.
Until now I thought posting on the forums was a surefire way to get a good team for a TF obviously i'm wrong.
Now @Eskimo-Spy
I'm not evil.
