Team NWS challenges team TWSS to battle in the arena.
Since pinnpvp.guildportal.com seems to have collapsed upon itself, new guildportal is pinnladder.guildportal.com.
I'll have matches and so on listed there, shoutbox and general discussion are up for anyone that wants to use them.
Questions about the game, either side? /t @Neuronia or @Neuronium, with your queries!
168760: A Death in the Gish. 3 missions, 1-14. Easy to solo.
Infinity Villains
Champion, Pinnacle, Virtue Heroes
I totally forgot about the 2v2 when i asked about fighting tonight...tomorrow(thursday) for our match rage?
Not to be a downer but its looking like the ladder is indanger of the same. run n Shoot is on the verge of calling in Two forfeits. And that is definitely not how we want to move up in rank. Twss has challenged us and as of yet has made any attempt to respond in game or schedule a match. As well they have two other matches in the works. As well our challenge issued to FaeGrape is on the verge of a week as well with no date in sight. I am a huge advocate of this ladder as I see it as a tool to bring more people onto pinnacle but this current level of activity is not going to get any anywhere but frustrated. And I really do not wish to repeatedly fight the same team over again every week because they are the ones showing up.
Not sure what else to do. We paired down the challenge spamming to accomodate schedules and we added a bench player to each team again to help accomodate schedlues. You only need 4 of your 5 to fight. but apparently teams are still being selective on Which 4. The ladder is for fun guys don't lose sight of that. Love pinnacle, it's my Home server, and I enjoy the competition in the ladder. But apparently people are more concerned about the Win than having fun. Honestly the best fight we had in Run n Shoot was the one we lost to FaceGrape. That match was tight and fast...loved it. I would lose every match if they were played like that. Honorably and with skill. Anyhow guys just fair warning get with me to schedule or I will be asking for your forfeits by the end of the week.

It's summer, always a slow time for this stuff. I expect more people to be online with Going Rogue going live next week and I expect a fair amount at the 2 v 2 mixed pairings tonight.|

Call in your forfeits if that's what you need to do, teams have been given ample opportunity to respond to challenges, etc. We should have enough teams signed up for there to be one or two fights a week at least.
The other solution would be a set schedule round-robin, but we'd really need to know what days are best for people.

Keep an eye on the pinncup channel, captains make sure everyone is in the channel and if they are hidden, make sure they show up in global channels. If you see your team is on and another team is on, get a match setup. Our team is available most nights of the week now.

We were challenged by TWSS and so far no response to posts nor schedules we are going to be forced to call for them to concede a forfeit. Due to non-schedule. Sorry.
Hmmm Dark said he would post but I know he has been busy. Run n Shoot vs FaceGrape has been moved to Sunday night via conversation between my self and Dark Omega. IT was agreed that if his team could not make this match that a Forfeit would also be assessed to FaceGrape on Sunday night.
Sorry about the Slow-Play. We have 2 challenges open 1 challenged and 1 we were challenged. Neither team has been able to make it. Our schedule should be open after Sunday and we will issue a challenge based on our outcome.

Hey Blacier, I was just talking to Dark Angel Ace, she said that Bad Bad Girl took a short break before Going Rogue, and the rest of the TWSS team don't read the forums. So she's going to try and get in contact w/one of the TWSS folks and let them know to respond.

Well I'm on TWSS but I'm the sub so I didnt think I had any say I also didnt realize Pun was MIA. I'll hop on today and see if I cant figure somthing out.
Fine you guys challenged us on the 5th IT has been well OVER the week liimit. I have spoke with Pun since Cloud your Co-capt is on now and no one seems interested in the challenge you issued so if you can do something great if a match doesnt happen tonight then a forfeit will be recorded tomorrow
Yeah communication with TWSS may be shot right now Pun is MIA with RL and I also have been MIA so not sure what the deal is with Cloud and Blu. I'll also try to have someone reach out to you to at least confirm the forfeit.
I have also been out of pocket with my team (Freakinasty) for about 2 weeks due to work and will most likely not be able to return for at least one more week due to work. I will attempt to find out status and follow up and get a challenge out there from our group if possible

Guys if you are going to be out and your Teams cannot meet in order to either challenge or accept challenge then post on here so we know you are not challenge ready so we dont run into situations like this. Our team has two challenges open and we wont accpet another until this is resolved it gets too complicated schedule wise.
Anyway to make it short if your not challenge ready or able then post so the rest of the league doesn't assume you are.
Sorry all about all this mess. Apparently Pun had set up some matches, but never informed anyone else. He is taking a break until the 27th or so. So I guess we will be forfeiting our matches. He tended to make matches and not tell us until the last moment or so 
Sorry about all this mess.
Pinnacle: Hold my beer. Watch this!
Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else.

Congratulations!
W00t....Great fight FaceGrape. That 3 vs 4 was crazy!
Congratulations on Omega Run N Shoot for claiming the top spot. From what I heard it was a very very intense and fun fight.
In any case, this will be the last time I'll be updating anything regarding Pinnacle PvP. I will keep this short and sweet. Kiwi's and my accounts are going to run it's course on the 21st of August. We will not be resubbing at all. Not even for Going Rogue. A combination of real life and the direction the dev team has taken is not something we both support, unfortunately. We have had some memories and this is still a MMO unique of it's kind.
With this said, Pinnacle has been and will always be the best server. Community is like no other. Have made a lot of friends, bred rivalries and also made some enemies. Overall, it was a friggin blast.
Keep PvPing. Pinnacle is still one of only 2-3 servers with active organized PvP and that gives me pride.
Anyway, TL;DR lol Have fun Pinn. One last drink to you all! HENNY BABY!
Also, Neuronia is your go to person regarding PvP. Rage I and Neuronia have op status on the Pinn Cup Channel.
Might be good to start a new thread too >.> So you can edit stuff Neuronia :P
PAYCE!
Later JK and Kiwi, you will both be missed! You are both an inspiration to those who know you. Good luck in your future endeavors together!
Just throwing a quick feeler out there, which of the Ladder teams are available to fight right now? I know there are a few that are out due to vacations etc... We would like to challenge Freakinasty as we have yet to fight their team. However I do not want to challenge a team that is not availabe to fight.

Game 1 is tied, then game 2 is random map. Game 3 becomes a picked map.
" Round Draws: Round will be replayed with the same lineups submitted initially on a random map."
It's up to Facegrape how they want to handle this, but Omega should not have had a map pick in round 2, but rather round 3.
If there's a conflict here, that round will need to be replayed on a random map.
Also, as per the standings...
What were the Standings previous to the challenge to TWSS and Facegrape as to Omega's positioning and TWSS. If TWSS was lower, Omega doesn't move up. you can only move up one ladder rung at a time, remember, so if it was like this
1.Facegrape
2.320
3.TWSS
4.Naked, Wet &Soapy
5.Omega
6.Freakinasty
7.KGB Reborn
Then Omega jumps over NWS (forfeit), then beats Facegrape, jump over 320 (second place).
Also, we can probably field 4 given enough notice.
