Perhaps you forgot my directive. One week. Then you may contact me again.

1. We get many requests from players who want to join {ball}. Please either tell them to go to http://tinyurl.com/aboutball or refer them to me (and I will tell them to go to that URL).

2. The leader of {CSS}, Ajuk, does not know how to organize or lead a clan. This is evident from his many failed attempts to schedule matches with other clans. Please do not accept any challenges from him that are not officially scheduled on our match page (http://tinyurl.com/ballmatches). I haven't been this pissed off at someone since ShadowAgent personally sabotaged SA/SA*. He brings out the worst in me, I'm afraid.

Greetings, team. I hope all of you had a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, etc. Have a wonderful new year as well!

With the new year, we will be working on a new strategy. If we plan to dominate ball, a few things need to change before February 7.

I have posted a memorandum on our wordpress site, http://ballstrategy.wordpress.com. Please add your comments!

If you do not have access to the site, first create a wordpress account and then please PM me with your email address and I will add you ({ball/*} members only).

P.S.

You all need to go read Harmonica's brilliant comment (okay, read my post first...):

Please welcome wolf'j'max (aka Explorer, snowdoll) and classicallad (aka Neo) to {ball}.

They are TBD veterans who will no doubt bring not only experience and talent, but also a strong sense of teamwork that will benefit our BALL strategy discussions and practice sessions.

And let me just say, after a day and a half of scrims with/against them, raising the salary cap to let them in was WELL worth it.

[classicallad]

Yeah when do i get my company car tgleaf? i was thinking an Aston Martin DB9 would suit.

Nothing but the best for our new members. Your new company car should be arriving soon. They only had one in yellow, so you guys can decide who gets hot pink.

[wolf'j'max]

Forget about the copter this is what i really desire. I want such a skate set like this:


I will probably be able to practise these sundays since its 3 PM for me.

[googliebear]

wow unreal!! Now not only do i have to play my ass off but i have to hope harmonica comes down with flu or something also!!

Its tough being a newbie =[

Also Laugh my ass off @ the car leafy baby, reminds me of Mr. Bean's Mini, but ya seriously tho i'll settle for a Bugatti Veron. *crosses fingers*

Edit: Actually that car in pink sounds kinda cool.... 'has anyone seen my fishnet stockings?'

[CCN]

maybe enough people for a 2nd team? Im sure there are others like me who didnt make the starters nor bench willing to give it a go.

If thats you (i.e. anyone) pls post!

[wolf'j'max]

If nothing happens i will make this weekends practice (sunday) and the first match in the ball tourney. I won't be able to make the match vs KLF.

Great! Class is going to play for KLF on Sunday, and I told him you should represent KLF, too (but he knows you probably won't make it).

Here's a shocker: I'm 22 years older than you, wolf. Old folks represent!!!

I already knew that!! But i actually really don'g care. You're all so nice! You,step and class. I think class is 25(?) so you're all atleast 10 year older.

P.S. A bit late but i read trough the thread and i heard you're getting a second birth around march (?) guess what? It's my birthday in march! (congratulations with the pregnancy btw [if it's all true])

[tgleaf]

It's all true. Thanks, wolf.

Yeah, March+ will either be a time of no Altitude for me... =O... or a time of much Altitude. New parents tend to have lots of time while kids are sleeping and not much time otherwise.

Prepare yourself, little clan o' mine.

[wolf'j'max]

Lol i would really like to play against your children once

TOURNAMENT DATE: FEBRUARY 7, 2010. MATCH TIME: 6:00PM GMT (10:00AM Pacific / 1:00PM Eastern). If you cannot make this time, please PM me so I can update the roster. For information about the tournament, see http://altitudegame.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2148 and http://altitudegame.com/forums/showp...0&postcount=98.

Bracket (best of 3; best of 5 finals; First to 6 goals, 10 minute timer)

Map Pool: Snow, Mayhem, Mayhem2, Maze, Darkwar, Core, and Cave (see http://altitudegame.com/forums/showp...&postcount=113 for specific order!)

PRACTICE TIMES: http://tinyurl.com/ballpractices

This time, we bring the fight to them!

*Subs are not guaranteed playing time. This is a Bo1 (best of one game) tournament, and subbing in-game is not allowed. Subs are needed in case of missing starters or high pings, or if we decide to field a different team after our first (hopefully!) win.

Yeah, tgleaf and I were talking about this. Feel free to create your own team of {ball}ers if you weren't in the top 12 or if you don't want to sit on the bench. Of course we don't want to lose any of our bench players but it is totally understandable if you want guaranteed play time. (I dunno about registration and stuff, like if it's open still or whatever, so figure that out too).
Also, keep in mind that there are a LOT of good teams in this tourney. We will be constructing lineup for each game based on who we are playing most likely. So subs can still play given the opponent. (being with {ball}'s A-team also gives you the best chance to win imo )

I had thought that there would be multiple games per matchup but it was pointed out to me that it is "SINGLE ELIMINATION" so we will only be able to change things around between rounds.

i love your cake

[Nikon]

Thanks blue. My sister made it. Hey tgleaf I just got the t-shirt it is AWESOME thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tgleaf]

We still need players for tomorrow's KLF match. See the link below for information. I will not be there for the match.

I will be updating the match schedule posted at http://tinyurl.com/ballmatches, but before I can do that, I need to know your preferences.

The best match times for me are always Mon-Sun 9pm-10pm PST (GMT-8). Does that work for most people? Would you prefer a weekend afternoon or a weekday afternoon, perhaps? Obviously, I'm referring to PST (3pm'ish), so it may differ for your time zone.

Post or PM me... the more people I hear from, the better sense I can get for match times (and tourney practice times).
