Chaos, please get a reserve for this evening.

My adsl line connection has dropped over 20 times today. Each time I've managed to get on the servers, my ping has been 350 to 800. Hopefully, it will come right before tonight, but if not... your going to need someone to take my place.

It's clearly telkom crap, as it doesn't matter which ISP I use (saol, sainet and mweb).

[ChaosADPumpkinHead]

Skouperd, I can get Bounty in for murgs but maybe you would like a Grrr in the squad, someone you've played with. Can you organise?

Bounty will be on stand-by

[pmurgs]

Not looking good, still hard for me to stay onlinefor more than 10 mins. So I suggest going ahead and replacing me.

[pmurgs]

Last two hours my connection hasnt had any problems. My ping is also back to normal. But maybe since it's still possible my connection might act up, maybe best if I sit out.

Great result gents!!! Well played. There were still one or two times when things went a little pear shaped but we'll work on that. Alpha wasn't as tight as I would have liked. Bravo I thought you guys did exceptionally well tonight, congrats

[Skouperd]

Thanks Chaos, I agree with your assessments. I think Bravo really did well as a team, good communication between everybody and both Murgs and Stukkend was both flexible enough to assist Alpha squad when needed, but did not hesitate to spawn back on me or Dazzie to support the APC when that was required. I am not sure who mentioned that their APC was just standing un-used in their base, but heads up for that person. Last week, I could see that somebody may just have ran without even saying / asking, very good progress from the previous events. I must unfortunately admit, I did not look too closely on what Alpha was doing, that thing about, trusting your other squad to do what they are suppose to do must have had something to do with it.

I was slightly concerned that having 8 people talking the whole time would become very confusing, however, I found that it was not actually bad at all. I enjoyed people from Alpha warning me about guys on the ridge, or knowing what Alpha was saying (APC in the water, APC coming to C etc) so I would definately like this to remain on. What are your guys views? Was it difficult to distinguish your own squads' voices, to that of the other squad?

Something that I really liked, was that when the tickets were close, Chaos asked to tighten it up a bit, I could see the ticket bleed immediately moving in our favour again. At some stage, we were only 7 points ahead of them in the first game. (60-53). Also, when we knew we had the game in the bag, nobody did anything funny or Rambo liked, we stayed back, and let them attack. That is the patience thing which BF2 clans should have over the COD clans.

Saying all the above, the only other critisism that I have is that I think we were still fooling around a little bit too much before the game, remember if you are shooting next to somebody it becomes difficult for that person to listen what is being said. Also, I am not sure these guys had their tactics sorted out, the next team we play will definately be better.

In summary, thanks guys, this was a good start to the season.
