Resignation...
Well it's been fun, but i'm not having fun anymore doing this so i quit.
Going back to the curly braces. Reason : apparently u can't fly a biplane in competitive games. I was told to "sit out" a number of times or change my plane, etc... Sure, i'll arrange scrims and make sure everybody gets the info, and then you guys can play. No problem. Are you ****ing kidding me? Biplane is my plane. I'm not changing ****. Adios <T>, this is not worth it at all.

Of course I can't say much since I didn't see anything, but it sounds like people were heated at that moment, since things weren't going well.
Well, I'm originally a bip myself, it's a nice plane indeed with good control and almost stealthy weapons. Adding to Slender's video, I also remember SL finals, mssv as recoiless bip being top killer for BBQ. They won that match, too. As much as many people say bip shouldn't be used, it is and gives good results when used well - that SL match was the ultimate proof for me. It's also true that team setup and plane matchup with the enemy both matter a lot in BALL, though. Like, a bip-only team will have a horrible time with a whale-only... (learned with T)

-- At the risk of stirring up drama: I think that discouraging a teammate does far more damage than any choice of plane or perks could ever do. It's ultimately people that are playing this game, not builds. A primary reason I joined Tadow was the emphasis on camaraderie first, with "win the game" concerns rightfully coming second, and I sincerely hope that we never lose that. While I do think that suggestions and constructive criticism about playstyle or builds are valuable (I really wish people would give me suggestions: I could particularly use some ball-handling tips,) there's a fine line to walk between offering suggestions and scolding. I myself accidentally blundered over that line with Mudo the other day, and I'm still trying to extract my foot from my mouth over that. That said, the feedback we've received from other clans (after they've beaten us soundly) has been rather consistent in both the problem identified and the solution suggested: our team build and composition. I agree with them, and here's why: while we certainly have some wonderfully skilled members whose favorite builds aren't 'standard' setups, we don't yet have the team cohesion necessary to support and mesh well with those setups. History suggests that the 'standard' builds make it easier for teams to focus on -- and improve -- that cohesion, so I think we need to take a balanced approach where we incorporate a degree of textbook play and textbook builds, while still maintaining our ability to advance beyond it to our more favored builds once we've used it to built up our teamwork and cohesion. So, in case anybody is still reading this, I'd like to propose two suggestions:
I think we should always ultimately focus on having fun -- this is still a game, after all -- but I think those two proposals would give us a slightly-more-structured path towards improving our competitive play without losing the focus on fun nor leaving the door open for further hurt feelings. Thoughts? Alternative ideas?

Although I'm not in <T>, I'm going to share my thoughts, feel free to ignore them.
Love the first idea Harm, brilliant. 3 goals is a lot to dig yourselves out of, even with a standard setup. I think you should choose certain games to play your favored perks and games where you choose to play your standard perks; the latter being used more often. This would give you guys a simple way to analyze and compare your 2 styles of play. Maybe in formal scrimmages you use standard and on informal scrimmages you use preferred. Maybe. Keep in mind that ball has been played years before most of us were playing, so the most efficient way to put together a group of ballers has already been sorted through. This doesn't mean try new things; in fact, developments in high level setups happen all the time. But when you aren't sure how to proceed, it's a good idea to fall back on the basics that years of ball has created for you. Woofs

As much as I dislike most of the ballers for leaving {ball} forcing us to crawl back to number 1. Harmy still is my whale buddy, and even though hes given up his status as the best ball whale.

Take a moment to think about the list below.
As far as {ball} goes, Lekai left his black book that spawns pros. I mean who thinks of stupid names like Carlos, and Soccer. Sheesh. :P Quote:

I've sort of refrained from commenting on the thread about all of this so far, I'll discuss everything during the meeting on Thursday. Hope everyone can make it, after we talk things out between ourselves I'll post the main points, etc for everyone who could not show.
