Rage

Post by **TygerBS** » Tue Sep 25, 2012 10:10 am

Well it is the last week before rage.
We have had one practice game, we have 4 practices games lined up, and less than half the team is not available?

WTF guys?
Really?

........ REALLY???

Should we just pull out of rage now?
Cause this is pathetic!

Where is the commitment?
The dates, and times for these prac games and commitment have been known for more than a month.
I have worked the whole public holiday yesterday just so I could be available for the prac games this week.

Are we going to play or not? ...cause honestly I am not going to continue to go out of my way if others are not willing to do the same.

Dude the whole team will be there barring me but I have organise Onny to the spanner monkey. I will try my best to be there for the second map. I think this is more a case of people not using the calendar right than people not coming to the game

So far we are just missing Lee and Phatso but they are dependable and I am sure will be there

Tyger is right, this is more about the entire run up to rAge instead of just this prac game. I dont know if it's Borderlands or what but we are not in a good position. Phatso has just been engaged to marry and Lee is still busy with work so, we are quite boned.

If Russian, U2Mx and Ony can make tonight then we can play, otherwise we should just cancel the game.

The problem is these two guys are essentially our infantry squad. I don't know what to do guys, we can draft in some other guys to fill the gaps but it defeats the purpose of playing rough opposition to improve not to mention the demotivation.

I don't know about pulling out of rAge, but it looks like its going to be a painful tourni for us.

Both Lee and Phatso are available, they confirmed. I should be home by 8:15 so if we postpone it a bit then we will have the full 8 team as planned

Epic fail on my side. I communicated my availability in the other thread stating that there was 1 game I couldn't make and the rest I could but didn't actually sign up on the calendar event. Did that now... Sorry guys.

Tyger, I do suspect its the same issue with others. They are ready and willing as we have said all along.. The issue here lies in simply clicking "ADD".

I understand you have sacrificed to get us together and organised and don't think its gone unnoticed dude.
The season has taken a lot out of all of us, but look how well we performed against BvD on Sienne? Doesn’t mean we can slack off, but shows we still have the X-FACTOR. We still play as a team and we just need some spit n polish.

Ok look sorry for my rage, but thats what you get with Tyger blood! lol

I Just looked at calendar saw 4 people had signed up and 1 had said no cant make it, and I was like WTF! RAGE.

Ok, calmed down. We need to make a push here guys. I know we not gonna win rage, but we can be competitive.

Tyger I am 100% with you we have 10 days and 4 prac left at most , if we can't use those then we will get hurt at rAge and it will be embarrassing.

I have amended my No to a Maybe, still need Onny in case but I should be available from 8:15 so if we actually pushed the prac to 8:30 then I am definitely there.

I don't think anyone is taking this lightly and we WILL be prepared for rAge

Yeah, apologies for not signing up on the calendar before today - fixed it to say I'll be there for everything coming up. Got 4 more busy days then I am on leave and will be spanking le BF3 in prep for the tourney.

Ok so we looking good and on schedule! I think it is important for us to have an opbjective.

Against BvD we got drilled but our objective was to get into TV which we did, so now we have that experience to call on. For BFC games I want the Infantry to work on reviving and following each other just 1 step back so that the whole squad doesn't get wiped out.

The team as a whole we need to work on
* Watching spawn points when cap
* Covering the angles of fire when defending

Win or lose tonight those are the areas we need to focus on
