Grapevine's disaster .. BUT HOW?!

[Underground]

demonfaze dont talk about what you dont know. while u were away fucking ur sister Mega Newbie was banned for 1 year for cheating.

[demonfaze]

wasnt he netbanned for a year for cheating? is so it contradicts everythign you said

You should re-read what I said and you'll realize I didn't contradict anything. I'll repeat it for you... "I don't recruit anyone that I think cheats" I don't think Mega Newbie cheats, not contradiction there. "Or even anyone that I know has a history of cheating" I made it clear in my post that i'm not aware of MN ever being banned for cheating, therefore I don't know of MN having a history of cheating, so no contradiction there. "I don't recall Mega Newbie ever being banned for using CE, correct me if im wrong there." Notice how I said correct me if im wrong as i'm uncertain about that statement, but was he ever banned for using CE? First time im hearing people tell me MN has been banned for cheating, could of been while I was away from this game for about a year or something, but if its true what was he banned for? Was it confirmed that he cheated, or was he unbanned, i'd like to know the story.

Underground, only your type would be into the incest stuff. Your obsession grows daily, grow up and get over it child.

Well, I could say one of many things that has been said before, but I have respect for Rand and what he does with GV. He's a leader, no question, and this season... well, maybe he might be getting a taste of the post-TWL dissolve that would continue the trend.

It's hard to find loyalty for a squad that's just going to dissolve...

I mean no offence at all, of course, but if I were invited back to GV (which, I might as well clear up right now before people jump on me, I was not) I'd decline just on the fact that GV dissolved twice while I was a member, and I respect Kid Kaos for saying he's there 'til the end, but so were a lot of people. Multiple times.

It's nobody's fault mind you! I don't blame Rand or anybody, usually there are priorities that overshadow this game and it changes with the weather, but I just hope people don't scratch their heads too long about why GV has gone down the road it has.

Sure people left at the most fucked up time, and I can see the majority of the responsibility going with Myth, Swim, and Reaver, but I think there are underlying aspects about GV and what's going on that people outside of GV just don't know. I think we should let GV mind GV business and take into account the fact that we all have our own squads to tend to.

Oi! You were totally invited back.

And you make it sound like I dissolved Grapevine without consulting any of you? I think everybody had left before we finally folded.

The only reason the squad was brought back was because there were 20 people on the chat saying "you should bring it back, etc, etc, etc". We joked about it and flew around with squad tags, but I wasn't planning on anything; I have a life to live. I said I didn't have time, that I would need an active captain. Mythril volunteered. . . We know what happened there.

I'm not making any excuses for anything right now but I'm a little insulted that all of the people who were the reason that I brought Grapevine back are picking apart its shortcomings from afar. Now that I'm stuck, I hope you all have fun. All I wanted to do this season was play in TWLB. Ironic eh.

[pascone]

shoulda joined spastic with the real grapevine co-captain?

[bicycle]

demonfaze i know what i say doenst mean much to you because you're super elite and i'm a mere heavy squadron newbie warbird but mega newbie was caught cheating and his ban wasnt lifted. i've seen him do some stuff in private arenas, as i'm sure almost everyone has that's been on any squads with him. he once asked me to race him and well...i think you can use your deductive reason to conclude what happened.

[King Baba]

My bad Rand.. didn't mean to make it sound like an attack or anything, but I soooo was not invited back. Never got a pm or a message or anything! Mind you I was in UF anyway, but still...! The temptation to pm you about it was there though, I won't lie, and I'm a bit appalled at the circumstances GV's in.

I know GV more or less folded rather than dissolved, and I'm more than sure you're going to stick it out to the end, bitter or sweet. But hey... um... consider yourself invited to UF.

Good luck, dude.

[Escalate]

I'm gonna have to predict GV to be around lets say... number 7 in TWLD now. I'd predict you higher if... well if you were better.

ROFLMFAO

Should have joined Pirates.. that's what I did when I didn't listen to those that asked me to bring a squad back!

[Scoop]

Thats ok, Rand has a never say die attitude just like me. We wont give up just cause a buncha people turned out to be a buncha pussies. I honetly cudda seen mk/mega leaving... but scoop? Man, I didnt see that comming at all. Buncha newbie ass pussies. Anyone who leaves a TWL squad should not be allowed to join anothe rTWL squad once the season starts. Its plain LAME.

Thats what im saying Izor. You leave a squad cause we had one bad game? the fucking season has even started really, week 1 only. Just shows you the kind of character people have in this game.

I personally will NOT be leaving grapevine, I dont jump ship EVER when it comes down to TWL. I will not ly down and let GV go down the tube, neither will rand. We will fight till the end, and I think we still have a shot at the playoffs.

first time for everything :wub:

[Kid Kaos]

Yea I guess your right scoop. But I felt like the squad in general gave up before I left. Everyday I come on, do a .?chat and most times i see maybe one or two other people in the chat witrh me. EVERY NIGHT this happens. I come on to play games and have fun. Not sit around on a dieng squad and watch other squads around me play in dd's and ect. You cant just show up on sundays and expect to win.

[RATTY...]

Gv Died!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A Twld And Twlj Spot Opens Up! Hurry And Qualify!

Atleast I'm hoping.

[Izor]

no one blames kid kaos. Grapevines undoing was not his fault, and it would be stupid to blame him or even rand for that. Of course, you can make the argument that rand knew what he was getting himself into by recruiting a bunch of hoppers, but thats the way the cookie crumbles. Had they won a game or 2 at the start, they would still be looking every bit as dominant as in preseason. It's a shame, really, that competition has been taken out of the league so that people can go bench on other squads
