Evil Empire Misfits----------Team Veracity

No forfeits. New teams in place of those who have.
GL HF. Please Finish by thursday or let me know if there is a delay

lawls how did XS win against us? We beat them 3v3 and they cried about it now they file a forfeit win. We tried our best to reschedule another match because we didn't want any drama but to file a forfeit win is complete bullshit.

Well, upon further review, it turns out you filed the FW and not them. I'm not one to bitch and moan about something as stupid as HL2DM playoffs, especially considering that my team was nothing but a bunch of randoms playing for fun, but it would be nice if we could say that we made it to semi-finals AS a bunch of randoms playing for fun.

sweet, we are psyched to be in the semi-finals!

what map? lockdown_r3 I'm guessing?

fuck yea! nino is the MAN

so if a team forfeits in the second round, will another team be brought in???

special thanks to sw for making us all wait around for your alligations to be resolved only to have you forfeit, after teams were nice enough to play make up matches against you during the last week of the season so you could get into the playoffs. class act all the way. misfits may suck but atleast we show up to every match and play.

ok well then wtf? cal admins are giving me conflicting messages. get your fucking shit together cal, jesus fucking christ.
Also, wrw2 and $W forfietted out because of matches THAT WERENT SUPPOSED TO BE PLAYED?!!?!?! WHAT IN FUCK IS GOING ON IN CAL.

Zman we even tried to play our fucking matches, XS bitched about the 3v3 and now it ended up like this because we couldn't get the second one done, so they get a FW and we get the fucking boot, shouldn't we fucking be in lower bracket at least? I've been trying to get ahold of nino all today and nothing.

i dont understand either. if grain is supposedly the person in question(the reason for the cal playoff hold up) then why is 2v2 still on hold and 4v4 is going? he plays in both. the community has got no diffenitive answer on what happened, now teams are forfeiting playoff games??? teams that didnt make the playoffs are now in after the first round was played? i think a lot of us would atleast be satisfied with some sort of statement from cal admins as to wtf is actually going on here

Wow you guys...you've had over a week to administer final decisions and shore up your problems, you know I like you Ko and I don't think you have anything to do with this long delay but action needs to happen and maybe a head needs to roll for next CAL season. I'm crossing my fingers that the extra long delay has nothing to do with LukeGT supposedly being out on a family vacation until soon....

" I'm crossing my fingers that the extra long delay has nothing to do with LukeGT supposedly being out on a family vacation until soon...."

fairly sure i would've been told things like this, but then again I could be wrong, just like I would've been expected to be told that playoffs were starting via talk in IRC or a post on DMU and I wasn't and as such we weren't able to field a team at all. i'll wait for another official CAL post on the site to see what's really going on though.

edit: then again I can play the rumour-mill game too and say that I hope ninoj is just catering to the players too much and making a mistake and not wanting to restart the playoffs before a final decision is made on grain out of fear that he may get banned!

...If nino did anything it most likely wasn't for grain, he has lots of people bitchen at him like me because our team is already short on players and most likely will not be able to play in playoffs just like FLaS...

You make a lot of assumptions that grain is a hacker, you don't really have any proof so please just stop spamming about him hacking, k thanks.

This is the story here guys. No playoffs should be played at this time. Therefore any results or forfeits will not stand. The team standings are the same as they were before the postponement of the playoffs unless a team leaves.

The time delay resulted from the difficulty that Grain had in uploading his demos to the CAL site. I offered my fast DL as an alternative then it took time to get them to the people who should have them. It takes time to watch and analyze 16 demos, its not something that can be done in a day due to the fact that that type of work can be tiresome. Then Memorial day weekend happened and some of us were out of town. I agree this is taking longer than it should, but it is just circumstance.

damn grain stop hacking so everyone can move on.

At first I thought so too....but now it seems the opposite result has happened...

"Nino is doing everything he can to help this situation, not make it more complicated, so back the fuck off."

it was a comment made out of jest, attacking a CAL admin who has no history of any corruption at all and is easily the best head admin HL2DM has ever seen with random rumours is stupid

"Oh, and keep praying that I'll be banned Seagull, that way you won't have to lose again. You have no proof, you have people turning against you, you're starting to realize that this isn't going to end in your favour, and you're still trying to prove that I hack. Just give it up."

lol

pretty sure im done with cal hl2dm, thinks arent going to get any better, i get more activity ringing in random scrims.

i dont expect anyone to cry, maybe take my lead, doesnt matter to me, but if rico, grain, tg and myself start a css team we'll need 1 more to make a full roster. dead bum looker storage ftw

When I was in elementary school there was a kid named Andy Morgan who got his face rubbed in the dirt by a girl named Rebecca Samuels. He went around for 2 weeks after that trying to convince everyone that she smelled like ham. He finally gave up the ham ploy since she didn't really smell like ham. Not many people remember the ham ploy, but they do remember him crying and spitting dirt and his dad coming to pick him up from school after he pissed his pants right after that.

HOLY SHIT.

My name is Andy Morgan.

ummmmmmmmmmmm, haaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Guys i think Rico is saying that Andy Morgan resembles seagull

Epic IQ.

That would make Nutri Rebecca Samuels!?!?!?

Yes, I've heard. Kills men by the hundreds. And if HE were here, he'd consume the English with fireballs from his eyes, and bolts of lightning from his arse.

I AM William Wallace! And I see a whole army of my countrymen, here in defiance of tyranny. You've come to fight as free men... and free men you are. What will you do with that freedom? Will you fight?

So Becky is William's spawn?!?! This is getting weird and whenever that happens, surely Cellar is involved~! jk hugs

I like the part where Becky rubs his nose in the dirt!
Something about that sits well with me.
