Post by: Whitey on April 17, 2007, 12:21:26 PM
Please join Meathook before 7:30PM.  I'd like to get two teams of 5 with a mix of Bravo and Charlie members in each team.  If more people turn up, we can make it 6v6.

Please sign up on the Availability page.

Is this training match for an actual match, or simply to stay in shape as a team? Either way, I'll be there if I can :g:

It would be possible but we won't be doing it during normal play.  Get good with the Scout and an AWP will be easy :flirty:.   We could look at playing some of the sniper maps on Meathook during training sessions though.

The main thing is how to fight against awpers... Using the AWP is easy.

 Practice against AWPers would be a very good idea >.>.

Good idea, we'll just go all vs you, then you'll get to run around dodging our shots :lmfao:

Meh, I really dislike using that thing in general. :sideways:
But if required, I'll train using it, pretty good results the last time I did. :g:

To be quite honest, I'm guessing a fair few people don't know how to properly use avail. I didn't have a clue I had to sign up for individual matches, I just thought setting my overall availability was what I had to do o.0. So, maybe just a quick link to the avail page and a little reminder that you have to login and click the 'Available, Maybe, or Not Available' link(s?) in the match description box would improve the results.

I'll try and make it, but I have to re-install Css, + HL2 ( Got the computer back working and well. But it seems almost impossible that I wiped 3 harddrives! ), so if I can install it in time, i'll be there.

( I'll sign up as maybe for now. )


EDIT: I'm now 90% sure i'll be able to make it, because the update is going to take another hour and a half, and the match starts from seven-thirtyish as I gathered, so i'll be there.

Uhh... Doctor Who didn't tape properly last night, so we're watching it tonight... at 8pm... and dinner will be ready then too... so I won't be able to get there until about 9pm.

 Is it going to last that long or no?

When it came time to pick the teams we had 6/7 people on the server.
20 minutes later and we had 12 dMw players on Boomer :g:
Are people just not interrested in matches or are they too early?

I wonder if people are confused and think that by turning up they may get picked.

if thats the case then we just need to explain the reason for the parctice - its to let the match players practice against people from our own community and thats all. By turning up to help at a paractice all you are doing is offering to be a target for the guys and believe me it helps a lot when people do volunteer.

If I have it all wrong then sorry :narnar:

that's not quite all...by turning up to help the team practice, You are expressing an interest in playing competitively/showing your support for the competitive side of the community, and are therefore more likely to get asked to play in the future:flirty:

Tonight was a training match (dMw v dMw) so most/all people turning up would have played.  The idea was to give the new Bravo's some match practice in case they get called up for a proper ED match.  The people who did turn up have been noted!

 No fair :( :P. I would've turned up if Dr Who had been taped properly (and dinner eaten earlier...).

 Sunday at 7/8 pm is evil for me. o.0. But it'll hopefully stop being so bad for me next week and onwards.

Sorry I was late, i'd have made it any other time, but i'd ballsed the computer up pretty bad ( I more-or-less killed it ) that's my reason for a late show.

I'll try and be there next time.
