You just know IB was that kid in Kindergarten that got "does not play well with others" on his report... :biggrin:

First game was just confusing. I think we got caught up in gazing at all the thwirly alephs of IBness when some annoying voice started howling about Bombers and Bases in danger. Probably could've defended that with a properly coordinated bbr D but then we'd have to go on with that map :)

The second game was rather fun. Probably because because y'all went Tac, though later on Hunter 4 was a nuisance.

PK – Saisoma (Dreg) [Adv Tac, Starbase, Sup] vs. SRM – Kronik (I think) IC [Exp, Adv Sup] PK Wins
Hi Higher – I forget the sets.

Good game SRM, sorry we made you wait for the end for so long. No excuses, just poor coordination in the end game.

Favourite moment for me – being the only SB in their sup sector with 5 adv SFs in there keeping alephs open for other SBs – of which there were none. Who knew that PK were SF whores?
KroniK, yes.
Settings were High/Med.
And did someone say tell the game `ns? Everything was Tac...
Home, Tac. High, Tac. Low, Tac. Midlow, Tac. Middle, Sup. Midhigh, Sup. Mid/Midhigh, Tac. Mid/Midlow, Tac. High Foward, Tac. Low forward, Tac. Midlow and Midhigh Foward, both Exp. And your home was Tac, no?

Lack of IC Exp rocks wasn't very nice.

The exp push forward took alot of work. Losing the opening tele con push low hurt us (And I wholely and completely blame Slipshod for lack of nan, and I deny the nerve I had to muster to send it with single scout D. Joint failure. `yx.), and we still had another to get for home. On top of that, you had SFs up by the time we were ready to push the Exp, so we decided to push a TP first.

And the four eyed Miners midlow? Genious, actually. If you don't mind, I'll remember it- both to not fall for it again, and to use it at some point should I be so lucky. ^.^

GG @PK.

oh i thought it was a resign when i saw 9 mins. :P Btw was your bombrun uneyed?
Given the lack of defence I'd say yes.
Uneyed, yes. Unexpected, no. Where was the D? Remember the carrier that pushed through the op/tp sector to your miners? There.

Lack of home rip, cause I really wasn't thinking along the lines of a Bomber Shove like that. Lesson learned.



EDIT: Little details, typoes, the like.

I honestly don't know WHY the miners were low right then. I had several problems with cons miners that game.

EDIT (didn't finish the above thought): but as soon as I saw the miners, I started yelling to hit the exp, so it all worked out in the end.

When your EXP was building, I had a tp con out that was to go mid-low to our tac. I ordered it to build mid-low and had to launch to d a miner. I got back in base, probably 30 seconds later and heard that tp was under attack. I launch mid low at tac to D it. I can't find it. Check F6 and it's mid hi!?!?! WTF. I immediately thought someone reordered it. Checked, nope. Since when was the path mid-hi closer than the path mid-low?

I had a similar problem with the second tac. And I had a few problems with miners like that. One or two and I would say it was just me. But it's been happening to me regularly when I comm. Enough that I suspected I was going crazy and just clicking wrong, except that I'm checking my chat history and I'm NOT. Dunno if maybe there's a bug with con AI or I AM going crazy.

That explains why the Tele con was idle at the He3 rock.

Don't find fault, find a remedy; anybody can complain.

Remember that against BS and GB, it'll serve you well. Pushing that carrier to my miners was very nice of you, great distraction and I didn't have to get the team to kill a nanned carrier. :iluv:
