Sounds like a cool game there grav

Im not quite sure if i read right, there was an enemy op in 1 and you were able to push your op to 7 via 5 while enemy miners came into 5 at same time?

and i see this thread's already ruined by the local idiot

Absolutely GG. Having spidey handing out threats to the team over TS was gold (and actually got the job done, which is more to the point). Also, Ding our (yellow) last attempt at mining was the best furball ever.

It really felt like a squad game - like one of the really good RT performances from the past, that feeling was reinforced by about 50% of the team being RT /cool.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cool:" border="0" alt="cool.gif" /> More squad scrimmages like this please!

The very end amused me as it was htt-races, Abomination versus me. He was ahead all the way to the green door, until at the last moment he got rammed out of the way, enabling me to take the checkered flag... err... I mean the green door /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

There was a point in phase II when they got a miner out and got a load home (or a partial load, at least). However it got killed due to a lack of concentration on team II's part, I think they were all docking because they thought the miner was safe, but it had re-launched and was trying to dock again the long way around, and died whilst doing that. Someone should change that in a future release - dock at the door which is quicker to get to. (It was an IC base and the miner was trying to dock at the green door behind the red door it had just come out of, rather then the green door to its left which is where a piloted ship would go to dock).

There was some great miner furballs by both teams towards the end of that game. I absolutely loved when they rushed our home with 12 heavy ints and our miner somehow lived.

I showed up late but from what I saw grav and grav's team operated like a well oiled machine!
I'm sorry I don't remember any of it. For you the day spideycw graced your squad with utter destruction was the most important day of your life. But for me, it was Sunday

Don't mention it, you quickly got the hang of it yourself anyway.
