So yeah, I love to complain. But this just makes me seethe.



Do you think it's fair for nine vets to organize together under a known commander, while the rest of the game plays anonymously in the spirit of the prank?

Note that the lobby was basically silent. Juckto, who was comming the other team, was in the channel with them and they fled to a password-protected channel.

Perhaps some sucky games had been had, but this kind of @#(! just makes it all the more sucky for the 50% who didn't see fit to collude against their colleagues.

If juckto was smart he would have changed his nick before entering in to the channel to someone insignificant of posing a threat, or a new unknown nick altogether. That way he could have known tactical things and won the game (assuming he didn't).

Honestly, I think the pool of names with the anonymity is a horrible thing. You don't know who is who and say a (2) gets GC. The game is pretty much over to someone who knows what the hell they're doing. I didn't like the joke, even though I tried to #mutiny and #draw a game like 18 times before the commander finally just booted everyone with my name.

It has nothing to do with fair. It is the way allegiance is. We just have to deal with it. It is no surprise why the failed April Fools joke took off like it did.

No reply of substance, thus complacency. Next?

Ok then... its basically a cowardly attempt by the vets not to have to face each other. It is way easier to face off against the voobs and noobs than another vet. What I don't understand is if I was half the player most of them were I'd want to fly against the best. Not hide behind each others skirts.

Whats wrong with people who are on TS playing together?

Did you ever think that they are "good" players BECAUSE they are on TS? Just maybe...

This stacking makes me sick! It's out of control!

TE and BV need to start handing out summary bans to everyone on that list, starting IMMEDIATELY!

Srsly, it's just one day of extra silliness. We go back to normal silliness tomorrow.
