As always, we had a lovely evening fighting against barroom and friends. I look forward to, and welcome, any and all future encounters that we may have. :Smile_honoring:

Probably won't be any more from me. Sitting around drawing out until 2 am on a Sunday night with 3 CW battles in 15 minutes wasn't appealing to me. Brings me back to the double DQ draw for 1st and 2nd place that SIMP is known for.

Enjoy E3, I'm sure it will be a riveting experience for teams fighting watching you sit 200meters from your cap.

Put the old draw rules in please so teams without CW can't just turtle the entire time and wait for you.

Thanks!

Amen.  I would have gladly drawn them out 5 times to knock them out....  but drawing out 25?  uh yeah, no thanks.

If there is one thing we can count on it's you coming in to these threads and crying about something. Obviously CW is more important to you so why don't you stick to that instead of cluttering up other threads with your bitterness? On one hand we were very integral to helping you win the last Conquest tourney - a rare compliment from you - but here we are suddenly idiots and time wasters - actually I believe your quote was retards if the visual evidence from the replay is to be believed.  For your sanity and everyone elses - step back and get some perspective because at the moment you are out running circles in left field.

GG's anway.

If you hid 15 tanks at the spawn in the absolute on Steppes, I would have been giddy with glee. Hiding 5 Tier 5 Tanks on live oaks 200 meters from cap, not so much. The only mistake we made, was not sitting there til 2 AM drawing you out to elimination. I'd rather go jump on a metal rake untl 2am than do that.

"We're not hiding. We're trying to figure out a counter to what you have"

Looks like you found it. Wait til the other team gets bored and drives in.


Have fun!

Well. MLP were able to do so in Crimea last year. :)

To the object, Unfortunately, more conservative teams have more chances to advance. I do not support requirements to win 3/5  to advance. I would like to see some 3 out of 7 to go. It will be a chance to draw, but not over abused...


Edit:
IMHO,
It was 3 win out of 5. It to strict. We lost once 2:2 and time running out while was searching for last opponent.
Now It is 3 win out of 25. It is too loose. 25*15 minutes = forever.
I would like to see 3 out of 7. So each side given a chance for 1 draw.
Could be an epic battle 2:2:2 and last one rules. 7*15 = under 2 hours.

immediate disclaimer: this is a joke, no disrespect intended.

Now that two SIMP teams have to face each other maybe they can go to 25 draws!

_______________________

we have seen SIMP to not turtle before with different maps and different tanks, so I don't think it is fair to say they always do it, but this map with these tanks seems to promote turtling indeed. We don't have much patience for that. So it's unlikely that we'd be successful much further.

Good games River of Blood last night you almost got us and you were short one tank.
This is another way to say we suck, RS please field 3 people!

When one side aggressively scouts the enemy half of the field and doesn't spot anything (or even get spotted)... it's clear who turtled hard at base.

I acknowledge SIMP has skillful, high quality players.  You may win challenges, but you have lost my respect.

lol.  It's easy to be magnanimous in victory--less so in defeat.  Macg1991 presents an excellent example of sportsmanship in both victory and defeat.  He'd be a great role model for you Barroom; perhaps you'll get the hang of it some day.

Myself, I can't help but laugh at the bitter people because it's always the same people saying the same things.  I'd make a terrible diplomat.

I've been gracious in both when warranted. I think you need more pretend tank stuff in your sig,

We beat teams that hard camp all the time in these tourneys, half the teams we face camp their base.  It's a strategy that is widely used, and you need to have a plan and play well to overcome it.  You can always win, if you dare. There are ways to beat base camping and until they add some better game mode like cap points out in the middle of maps(so there is no reason to defend cap/base), teams can always resort to defence when they don't think they'll win in an outright attack.  The point is you can beat base camps/turtles, nothing is undefeatable.   Sometimes fighting teams that turtle/camp can be easier especially with six sense scouts.  If the enemy team gives you the entire map to work with you can use it to surround and beat them.

You guys do realize you could have disputed this, right? After 8 battles you can dispute intentional draws. It's in the rules for a reason.
