GG, Exigent.
Edit:
They are playing! Woot woot!
it was totally awesome for real
Much <3 to the Shoutcasters..
There was an hour long pregame
First round on ns_origin began
Exigent lost many high life forms due to comcast
They would freeze for about 5 seconds every 30-40 seconds
This was on four of their players
Comcast sucks
Exigent lost
CAL Refused to allow a reschedule due to rules (I think, that or terror just didn't want to because of real life issues or whatever and whatnot)
Exigent wanted only to play, but didn't want to play on an unfair field due to their extreme lag issues
Terror wanted only to play, but it was getting extremely late for some of them who had to wake up for work or whatnot the next day because most of them are EST
It was about midnight (EST) when the ruling was decided that exigent forfeits
They play one grudge half where exigent wins their marine half
Exigent quits CAL
All this took about 4-5 hours to complete for 1 half of actual gameplay.
Spectators reached about 300 I was told
<!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin--> You will be allowed to have one half of each match on a server provided by each team.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
QFT
Who do these referees think they are? Being unwilling to budge from the rules that some geek has spent a few days making up (at the end of the day- 1 map, no cheating, hf.).
I mean it's just an amateur video game league, right?!
This is possibly the nail in NS's coffin; I hope that the US scene doesn't decline to the same level as our EU scene.
I don't see how anyone can say we're being unreasonable, all we wanted was a server switch with the score still at 1-0 in favor of Terror, or a reschedule, so we could have connections that didn't freeze. I want to make this very clear: <b>The only options offered to us by CAL and Terror were:
a) Play the 2nd half of Origin on the same laggy server
b) Forfeit the 2nd half of Origin and go to a non-laggy server for veil with Terror having a 2-0 advantadge
c) Forfeit completely</b>
It's really a shame... And note that switching servers while keeping the Terror 1-0 lead would've only taken 5 to 10 minutes, I don't see how anyone can claim that it would keep them up too late? I mean we were switching servers anyway after the 2nd origin half...
