OldF used that logic (or just one in particular), I don't think they made it past week 3.

Also people with goals have a tendency to do better with people without goals. I challenged you to make to week 5. So that should be a goal to attain.
If you make it to week 5 I will take back what I said.
Firewater speaks the truth, I remember when he insulted me hardcore back in late 1.04 when I was a pub nub, then again when I made my first clan, and when I wanted to give up on ns clans I remembered "I'd just be justifying the things he said"
Granted firewater had some impact on my own gaming "career" He wasn't the only one.
So, yeah, I do thank you firewater for making me look like a moron 2-3 years ago. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
New teams get rocked. Its what happens. This is because pub ns is a different game than comp ns. Everybody loses when they play a game for the first time against people that play it every day. So in things like prediction threads, of course nobody is going to predict a win for you against a team that has played at least one match more than you. And they might even say *gasp* that you suck. Don't take it as an insult. Cause really, when was the last time you even <i>dropped a second hive</i> against a delta team? Just chill and figure out how to play better. And ask people for help, almost any team that slaughters a new team will give some sort of help afterwards if asked.

I am capable of admitting when I am wrong. I just try to be right a lot more than I am wrong.
To FAT-ns
The fact that I am saying that you won't last till week 5 is a prediction based on evidence that I have seen.
The fact that some of your members need to stop getting insulted on the internet seriously affects their ability to play.
To put it another way, they are paying attention to what people are saying about them over the internet rather than completely focusing on the task at hand.
Surely the author of this post is not alone in this sentiment, otherwise I do not think he would have posted it.
Also getting advice is great, but learn how to think like the top players. Find the flaws in their strategies (ALL strategies have flaws) Do not copy their strategy down to the T. Leave room for improvisation (ESPECIALLY as a commander).
Keep an open mind (despite what pub-allstars say, competitive players do experiment with different strategies/tactics).
Try something new. It may work it may not. But you will not know unless you try.
im hardcore emo and i cry when people trash talk me, like last night i was crying cause some guys were saying that my name sounded dumb. Then I looked at cwag's sig and felt better.
Some people like cucumbers better than pickles - you know? You just gotta remember which one you like best.
Some of you are making that guy from Dashboard Confessional look like a John Wayne stoic. Seriously, why are you still talking about this? I don't think that anybody really cares about the emo side of CAL except the people who are wrapped up in mediocre clan/server dramatics.
[FAT],
Cease caring. "Somebody made fun of me over the internet" is not a valid reason to complain, let alone subject the General Discussion forum to it. You can ignore it or cut yourself, but either way it won't make your NS game any better. If you're a "for fun" clan, the rantings of the serious shouldn't really phase you. If you're out for serious competition, you should be too focused on your goal to notice the mud-slinging of the mentally deficient.
Also, you shouldn't change the server around because clanners were making fun of you. [FAT] was pretty successful with the old formula and while I'm sure the prospect of another vanilla NS server has sent CWAG into a masturbatory frenzy of joy, plugins do tend to get more players. Do what keeps your server full and popular.
In other news it's entirely possible to continue in competitive NS without actually talking to people outside your clan besides for setting up scrims and matches. Ban idiots from your channel and /ignore them in channels you can't ban them from. It's never going to be a requirement that a good player also be a mature/reasonable player, so just deal with it now.

How you get treated in CAL is all in how you act with the other clans. Take my old clan, No Dice, we completely sucked. We did not win a single match (except be forfit) and only tied once. We never got any bad treatment, infact we were treated quite well. The reason was in how we acted. I never looked at teh other clans as stuck up or anyting, just clans I could learn from. I even made a post in the CAL forums asking for advice on how I could improve the clan, and got some excelent feedback. The problem you are looking at now is how you introduced your self. A topic like this does not make the greatest impression, so now you will have to fight your clans first impression. When making a post related to CAL, you have to take both Maturity and Politics into account, otherwise you end up shoting yourself in the foot.
Anyways, it is good to hear that there are some new clans out there. Good luck to all in the next season

Way way back in season 1, my team ^? was one of the three or four 'new' teams in CAL.

Hell there weren't even Delta and Omega divisions, just East and West. Still, we acted chill and the other teams were cool and gave us pointers.

Because *Sniff Sniff* people were trashing their poor gameplay <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> , they probably should have used more emoticons for support.
Also people with goals have a tendency to do better with people without goals. I challenged you to make to week 5. So that should be a goal to attain.
If you make it to week 5 I will take back what I said.
Granted firewater had some impact on my own gaming "career" He wasn't the only one.
So, yeah, I do thank you firewater for making me look like a moron 2-3 years ago. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I do remember saying that you have improved, and you were playing at a very high level. I don't remember the exact words but that is the notion I conversed. This is clearly a "180" from when we first met. You did suck, then you adapted, and played on a team that beat the one I created a few times. (go iRiot)
I am capable of admitting when I am wrong. I just try to be right a lot more than I am wrong.
To FAT-ns
The fact that I am saying that you won't last till week 5 is a prediction based on evidence that I have seen.
The fact that some of your members need to stop getting insulted on the internet seriously affects their ability to play.
To put it another way, they are paying attention to what people are saying about them over the internet rather than completely focusing on the task at hand.
Surely the author of this post is not alone in this sentiment, otherwise I do not think he would have posted it.
Also getting advice is great, but learn how to think like the top players. Find the flaws in their strategies (ALL strategies have flaws) Do not copy their strategy down to the T. Leave room for improvisation (ESPECIALLY as a commander).
Keep an open mind (despite what pub-allstars say, competitive players do experiment with different strategies/tactics).
Try something new. It may work it may not. But you will not know unless you try.
Some people like cucumbers better than pickles - you know? You just gotta remember which one you like best.

Maybe so, but I'm not one of them.
[FAT],
Cease caring. "Somebody made fun of me over the internet" is not a valid reason to complain, let alone subject the General Discussion forum to it. You can ignore it or cut yourself, but either way it won't make your NS game any better. If you're a "for fun" clan, the rantings of the serious shouldn't really phase you. If you're out for serious competition, you should be too focused on your goal to notice the mud-slinging of the mentally deficient.
Also, you shouldn't change the server around because clanners were making fun of you. [FAT] was pretty successful with the old formula and while I'm sure the prospect of another vanilla NS server has sent CWAG into a masturbatory frenzy of joy, plugins do tend to get more players. Do what keeps your server full and popular.

I would not expect someone from a team of FAT's caliber to follow the competitive advice I have given.
I look forward to seeing whether or not you can go the distance.

The advice about ignoring what people say? Yeah, that's what I mean. I don't care what they say, I'm here to play. Speaking of which...

Anyways, it is good to hear that there are some new clans out there. Good luck to all in the next season

I believe when the original author created this thread, it is pretty much too late.
