I am very mad, but not sure at what.
I moved my pc into the garage for that sg. Then the backup modem wouldn't work and I had to load up the crappy celeron laptop with wireless internet for max suckiness. Then I dropped in game and then we got turtled by dreg sup instead of them even trying to win.
Serves us right for not going sup earlier and investing the wasted cash in advanced sup eariler instead those two large cons

From RT guys we were just wondering why you didn't pop in an HTT with the garr con to our sup sector, or invest earlier in another tech. You did exactly what Exp is great at, making an opportunity and exploiting the @#(! out of it. You just couldn't finish it up against the rocket turtles and once we got gat 3 and galv things shifted back around.

Also lol at grav maybe 40 minutes into the game "Good thing they don't realize that we've won this game yet."

I think it was "It's a good thing they don't realize that they are about to lose". :ninja:

I approve of MEC's team name.

's funny you use that excuse. I recall killing you again and again, and I wasn't even there for the last hour... :P

Then you missed it getting much worse :lol:

What do you expect though Turkey. Heavy ints engage where they will, and can disengage from figs with sheer booster power. The people in the enh figs have to fight and die, over and over again. I was giving as good as I got for the first two hours, getting to KB 37 for a while, but then I just couldn't focus anymore.

Not making excuses, just providing a little detail. You fly the fig, I'll take the int next time ;)

Actually we tried rather hard to win the game Vortrog. Especially after our opening was kind of ruined by Idan dcing again and again (we pretty much lost all our intial miners because of that :ninja: ). And it was sort of an unpleasent uphill battle to stay alive and outmine you guys with EnhFigs vs HvyInts.

Its like you said though if you had kept your miners alive, got a Sup earlier and not lost a Tac and Garr con you would have won that game. Something you did really well though was all these sneaky HTT runs we only stopped at the last seconds. (One of them losing nan's to a hero AC tower which safed our Sup :notworthy: )

Actually - we said during the game this would have been a better tactic for you.

Mind you everything with hindsight.

I spent most of the game trying to be a living probe in various enemy sectors. Eyed a few of the HTT runs. Got podded lots (4 times with less than 1 second on the rip counter :P )
