I'm not going to get into any names or point a finger. I'm far to embarrassed and pissed too think of specifics; and if I did, I'd be setting IPSEC's.
A server vs server Funwar is a relatively new concept in UT. The main premise of this is to have an enjoyable time. Sure winning is great. It feels good on the lips when you say it and how it feels. But in a game someone wins and someone loses. The man who loses doesn't like it, but knows how to deal with it. He respects his opponent and recognizes their achievement. The child cannot accept this and looks to blame others for his loss, believing that he was done some injustice and fails to take ownership of his part.
Omnipotents played a good series of matches and came out on top. They should be respected and in the spirit of a funwar - congratulated. How much fun is a Funwar when poor sportsmanship exists? And, my problem is that it was on our end.
Let's be men (and women) and never display this ugly face ever again. There is no room for it here. Sure we may be old fashioned and easy to point a finger at as too 'idealistic'. THEY say: That 'it's a cruel world out there and you have to look out for number 1 and step on those who get in your way.' or, 'The game curses, I should be allowed to swear or do as I wish' We say, screw them.
A funwar should be Fun.

I agree with Saga. It was a fun war and for the most part people did well. I know me and Bad-Girl had fun even if the games went long and would happily do it again.
We did have a few issue and the people playing know what they where, I did make a list.
There are a few who will NOT be invited to the next Fun War.
I wish to personally thanks PI and the Omni group for a game well played.

I'll continue by saying i needed a good butt raping, lol
It was indeed fun and would to do it again, if asked too
granted we needed a few more players so we could rotate some players in and out and also try to get other players that play in the server alot to join in on the fun and not just clan members

The people from OMNI are good people so another fun war would be fun but we just have to watch who is actually going to have fun rather than people who just want to win no matter what.

I also didn't like the behavior of some of the people on our side it made me feel like those people are bringing down the respect that we have here

I will start my statement like this.ut is only a game everybody be nice to each other thank you my opinion I think we need to pick team of 10 people on each team that way we can rotate or we can play fourth 30 minutes a shot rotate to one another map for 30 minutes at about all anybody can handle then we start yelling at each other. PS this is my personal opinion and I keep my brains in a glass next to me at all times no leakage.

That's actually not a bad idea...lower the time and thus lower the frustration. Either that or let OMNI go first. That'll lower the game time considerabley...lol. Another way is if you can't handle losing don't play...they are better then the group we put together, plain and simple so go in expecting to lose but with that attitude that it's a good time and you've tried your hardest. Don't be so critical of the other players on your team, I know it can be frustrating sometimes but we have to keep in mind that A) not everyone is equal in ability, B) They may not be familiar with that particular map and C) we have a huge age and therefore maturity range here....we have players that are kids and we have players that have kids...so be considerate or sit it out.
I can be guilty of this as well...I have one huge pet peeve and I have to keep my cool at times but I'll take the moment now. In any C&C map if you get the helicopter, cicadia...whatever it is good for only two things...1) Flying low (LOW being the important word here) and scoring or dropping off someone to score and 2) Spotting the Levi to tell your teammates where it is. It is absolutely useless for defence unless there are no more modules to score. If you don't like to use it for that please (on hands and knees) leave the poor thing to someone else. Please!!!! (desperate sobs)
Anywasy back to the funwar...they are taking too long and therefore causing frustration to the players losing...that being us. Shorten the time or let OMNI go first and that will shorten the time just due to the fact that they have a better overall team then we put together.
