So I'm getting kind of bored with forfeiting losses because we dont have enough players to play. Is it possible that the team will ever get a chance to actually play?




I think I see now why no one wants to be on the team

We've actually played several times. The main reason we're not playing a whole lot is because:

Most of our players haven't graduated and therefore have school.

Spleenter works every day until ~9:30 P.M.

I've been constantly out of town for work/personal reasons. (If you must know, someone died recently in my family.)

If we actually EXPANDED the team beyond the few people we have, and got back into the habit of practicing as often as we had last season, then MAYBE we could get something done.

Either way, season's over next week, anyway.

So, I have a large list of really good players I have seen around the servers that I would like to recruit for a/the CEVO team as either main players or backups. But that would mean we would have like 20 people on our team. Would I be able to start a second cC CEVO team to play next season?

Now my question is how long in between CEVO seasons?

Also, I don't think my list includes a medic, partly because no one on the servers actually plays serious medic. Would I be able to grab one or two people from the main team? I think 11 people is a little much for a team.

I really don't think you've been in the community long enough to run a second cC CEVO team. Fool's Gold tried pulling that off and he evidently failed.

While I agree with what Beetle's saying, I also don't want 20 funserver regulars on the team who aren't active in the community in any way besides playing on the funserver, solely because they're almost decent at a class.

I'd prefer having people we actually know from the community on the team, like TGame and Royalblue. [Denzo could bribe us to victory.]

If it's just a whole bunch of people we just happen to play on the servers, I'd rather not have them representing the community, especially if they're from the server Captain doesn't even like.

We get a few new people here and there, even less that are actually decent people. BUT. I really doubt we've picked up/lost anyone because of the CEVO team. I don't know the guy, but he's trying to add something to the community, whether it would be a good thing or a bad thing, its something...which puts him above most since most are too lazy to do anything. That is all I'm saying.

I don't like the fact that you join the community and immediately think you should represent cC in a serious tournament. You have like 8 posts total, try coming back once you're actually a regular on the forums.

I'm not on your god forsaken listen because I never go to the damn funserver. And if you believe any funserver junkie is able to compete in the CEVO tournament, you're in for one hell of a surprise.

EDIT:I've now seen how Hutch plays, this guy is terrible. Your only ok class is the scout and doghouse does that better.

Tampa doesn't care about admin. Honestly, I cannot even remember the last time he was ever in tf2. Not in our servers I mean in game in general.


EDIT: Also don't become Dick Trickle. By that i mean don't start measuring and comparing peoples' admin penises.

Also, noone is a worse scout than Doghouse.

That is completely impossible, and if it is, I will commit suicide as I have given up all hope for mankind.

For serious talk, I can play Medic. I'm good at keeping multiple people alive, and staying alive. If you want someone to do it, let me now. Because I could practice more.

Also, we/whoever is in charge of it, should consider using that extra server we used to have for training/practice.

Also, I can do soldier if you need someone, most likely roaming soldier.

I am a pretty good Engineer, and I can usually figure out what way the enemy usually comes out of and set up shop there. I can also be either partner of the Heavy Medic Battalion if you need that

You aren't going to use an engineer in a CEVO tournament.
Most teams are 2 Soldiers, Medic, Scout, and a Demoman I believe.
An engineer wouldn't be logical in that situation, too slow, weak, and too long to set up.
Heavies aren't much good either, especially with someone who is a pro soldier or demoman.
The medic on your team heals 1 soldier, they're faster than heavy and a good soldier can do more damage to a team than 1 heavy.

As I said in the above post, the upcoming CEVO tournament is a Highlander one. If you're interested, post a number between 1 and 10 representing how interested you are in joining the team (1 being not interested at all, 10 being "I'm already on the roster"). I've already talked to everyone who was on the old team except Captain and Travis.

Yulond: 4(8 when TF2 is Fixed)
Surnem: 5
Twister: 10
Denzo: 7 (If Work permits it)
TheDogHouse: 5
Spleenter: 4 (Until August, then 8)
Riftoff: 6
Optimus: 6
