Vinnie--
Lol right, Spiner just fell out of a tree last year and figured out how to team. And the rest hardly did anything! I'm rooting for you rusty little choo-choo! Let's hope this rag-tag band of out-of-the-loop nobodies can take it to the top! Just stop, sometimes I think you actually believe this tripe and it makes me a little sad.

Do you doubt I am a random sonic blaster from freedom?
I joined the game during i14, an AE baby to the extreme. I was a level 50 fire kin that didn't know how to use the train. Starting TFing i15 with Prophets of Supremecy. First entered a zone or 1v1d (with my sg) at the start of i16 that was September. Kbs really started in November so I joined those on my pvp io-less sonic em. After two weeks of kb I was being picked over max no offense to max I have no problem with him as a person. I formed friendships with Vex Chris and Musey and got better. Beat poned and final res in 1v1s in my first week of non Pve sg matches. Then the league formed. I was asked to join u2bg and accepted. However after I found out it would not include my new friends I decided to co lead the post op we'll talk band of misfits. Vex and I then turned our d6 players into an unstoppable force that even beat a 5/6 d8 U2bg team. If I had been able to hold the team together instead of having 5 d8 players left at the end we would have won the league thanks to the points system. I quit for awhile came back to join Steve, then headed the FML and won it with BFG. Quit again. I had 15 month vet badge before I came back this time. So other than Venatrix whom I found in the 12th round of the fpvpl d6 draft picked soley because she had the global Lady Inferno and I wanted to try to sway Reaver to our team by having all the females, I have the least game time played/pvp time of any of the known names in this league. I think the problem is people like you BW that have played for awhile and still suck so they make excuses instead of getting better. And way to copy my soul storm build, you do it wrong. And don't even try to say you did it first. I did that as soon as going rogue came out.

Don't get me wrong; u8bfat are total ********, but they love to PvP just as much as the rest of us and are willing to calm their trash talk for *usually* at least the duration of a match (and longer if they want to do more). This is especially true since they are too busy tryharding during a match to type in broadcast. In my experience the **** talking comes both well before and well after the PvPs take place. Whether one finds that acceptable or not is up to each person. I think one should be able to set aside one's pride for the sake of practice; that is, if one cares about improving. Personally, the trash talk doesn't phase me or most of my teammates. We're Honey Badgers; we don't give a ****. We practice with them because if we can get a coordinated spike off while 1 emp and 1 offense are dead, we've accomplished something to build on. Who cares if they post screenshots of 40-0 scores. We know we will lose by a large margin every time, but it doesn't stop us from improving with every match. We don't give a ****. |

I like how we make mention of coming back, and people say we're mediocre/over-rated/going to lose to them/worse than Infamous (lol).
Then we start doing what our name implies (****** everyone), and we're suddenly the stacked team that enjoys destroying everyone's fun.
We don't post "secret rosters".
We don't treat our "draftees" any differently than our core.
We don't have cliques within our team secretly hating each other.
We don't avoid practicing with teams we don't want to lose to.
We don't pretend to be anyone's friend, then **** talk them while we're on mumble.
While I've come to be cordial and honest with most people I talk to online, my self-proclaimed honesty will demand that I say straight up:
We don't care about civility. We are barbaric trolls. We really are. We talk loads of **** - zealously, and without relent - often (most often) for no reason at all.
None of us are denying that.
Moving on.

2. Lol, I set up that build about a month before the league started. I've never played a blaster on an arena team before this one so don't be haunted by whatever similarities may have occured to you.

The best officials from way back in the day were matches that were preceded by loads of **** throwing from both teams for months on end.

This team wasn't well-practiced pre-League. There are plenty of *random* people on board, regarding test teams, and for some, pre-i13 altogether.
I don't know what you're trying to accomplish. Obviously you want to discredit what Vinnie's said; but talking up the team in terms of PvP competence isn't hurting anyone's feelings. That aside, Vinnie's statement was accurate, as it usually is.
The team has talent. That's why you're no competition, along with everyone else. That's why the members didn't need to be practiced or even active at all before this League.

Actually, you'd practice the best team (WARE) if you weren't an idiot; since they'd give you the most practice. Teams who actually just want to play, have fun, and improve are doing just that.
You're just a forum-jockey, but you have no real arguments. You fight logic with stubborn ignorance regularly and infer subtle undertones that don't exist. The true diagnosis is "YouMad", but that's already obvious to everyone.
Do yourself a favor; get of Vince's dick. It's embarassing.
Reading this thread makes me miss the days when Tribute was top dog both in terms of PvP and **** talking.

As far as test teams, he was in the first 10MoP and Blacklisted. I don't remember if he had been in HellRaisers when they were fighting on test. I don't know what he did subsequent to Blacklisted, I left the game for a while.
People who know him from Protector have always regarded him as a star player. If he was with the group, he elevated our performance as a whole. Unfortunately he had a lot of rl conflicts and wasn't around as much as we hoped. He's had a lot of experience in team pvp and has always excelled at whatever he decided to do. The assessment that he's relatively new to emping and OMG HE'S SO GOOD AT IT is silly. Of course he's good at it.

Until that point, the only one making false characterizations is you. What a shock! |
The mission statement, certainly misleading in the case of Spiner. But beyond that look at what it says concerning Spiner and Silit--scrappers from Protector. That's who they were. Are they playing scrappers in league matches? No? So there goes you're 100% accuracy crap. It's a false-self-deprecating joke, which is how it comes across. We gonna keep beating this dead horse? Again, torture the obvious.
