June 12th: Playoffs Match vs Long's Team at 9pm EST
So I'm assuming we're playing Long's team next week. We definitely need to make sure everyone can show so we can ensure a solid victory. I will pm rad and pac again probably tomorrow reminding them of Sunday.
We will be able to pick the first two maps and side on the first map. What maps did you guys have in mind. Now we know not to pick fucking bside if Matin is capping. I think we did pretty well against them on dx and hk. How about those?

It was but it also worked. The trick was more campers, less chasers. I know we couldn't cap there, but nor could Matin.
Mostly, though, I know that playing that map again would really piss you off.

Meh it was also OT and everyone was tense besides rad who made that amazing final cap like a champ.
There are less risky maps that we could play imo.

How about how I got more returns in 5 minutes of OT than the entire team combined in all of regulation. I'm kind of a big deal.

Re: June 12th: Playoffs Match vs Long's Team at 9pm EST
Unfortunately, I will not be able to make it to this match/final I run a youth soccer program (k-8) in my hometown. Meaning I am in charge of making sure everything runs smoothly - 4 teams per grade group, roughly 230 students signed up. The soccer league starts next tuesday and I am meeting someone to help me set up the fields sunday afternoon, meaning I will not be able to make it to a computer due to me being in my home town rather than where I live for college (where I have computer access). Technically I could make it to the match if I wanted to, but on top of just running the program, I handle concessions, t-shirt distribution, destributing information (past few months), etc. Thus, I need to be in my home town preparing everything for tuesday, Sunday night and monday. I apologize for my absence as it will be only my second this tournament (the first I could have made, but we were playing lawlz so I decided not to try too hard to appear). I am saddened that it is the championship match that I am missing, but life comes before tribes. Hopefully you guys can pull it off! I'm rootin' for ya.

Damn Vert, that really sucks. Best of luck with things, it's been a great ladder and I've really enjoyed playing with you. No worries about this one, you showed up all season and helped us get the advantage we'll have this Sunday. <3

It was all my fault. Rad said to solo cap at the last minute. I said vga. I apologize to everyone that showed. It was a bad idea and it is my fault but I hope all of you have had enjoyed at least some of the games this season.

Re: June 12th: Playoffs Match vs Long's Team at 9pm EST
It's okay. We just made some seriously bad errors in terms of decisions. I should have been around the second map to talk strategy instead of running to obs and assuming things were cool. We knew better that their campers would eat us alive without using two cappers and having one clear, but you guys switched to solo capping so we had nobody clearing, and they camper raped us (plus the flags that were lost from failure to self pass combined with their AWESOME clearing of our campers). Mario rage quitting halfway through the map really didn't help either. But then I fucking blew at chasing the first map (hillside), which we shouldn't even have played (should have done DC) because a wide open map for matin+honey is just dumb. I think that loss was at least half my fault purely off bad decision making, and just ineffective chasing on hillside. My apologies to Impulse, you were a great captain all season and I was too hard on you after that loss. We all shared in it, and my share was disproportionately large.
To be fair though, matin and honeys performance tonight was the single best capping duo performance I think I've ever seen in anni spawn...so that's pretty awesome.
Props to everyone though, this was a great team. We had a better group, and more active group, than any other team. This ladder was a ton of fun and I doubt I'll ever get to play anni spawn with such a great group of guys again.

So matin and honey were capping for them? ah man..
I think we beat sb last time self capping, didn't we?
Anyone want to give me a quick recap of how the maps went? did it go to 3 or did they beat us first 2 maps?
