At least one of the clans is going to have to have a ping of 120?

If HAM did practice and have their good lineup. I see HAM taking it.
And for eR vs envy, I really like both of these teams, eR with their new commander GeneralPatton, which with him now on the team, i've seen eR do a hell of alot better <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
envy also got a couple of great players Rapidfyre and Sling_Blade. and envy have very good individual skill, but seems like they lack strats. So i see a tie between these two teams <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
and for the third round, I dunno, depends on which side each team is on.
But i love all of these teams, i wish the best to all of you <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Slideshow ahoy!
I wouldn't mind see that match, or any of the matches. Anyone have them?
Spinnahost was the HLTV server..
God, Spinnahost SUCK!
Don't expect any spectacular moves although it will give you a clue as to what went on and an example on how not to attack a jp/hmg as fade without using blink to your advantage =) We felt we could've done better and we were close at some stages of the game but we all enjoyed playing and weren't disappointed with our performance but it's never fun to loose. Look out for our next encounter with HAM, we will be back and next time victory will fall our way <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> (and hopefully we'll have a working HLTV that time).
Btw, if you got demos of your games that you want to show to other people, talk to TribalDaniel about getting em hosted on their site, the NS community could need a good demo repository which currently doesn't exist.
HAM v. .bm -- HAM wins 2-0
OSS v. Evil -- OSS wins 2-1 (Alien tie, OSS wins cointoss and goes alien, all Evil does is **** on irc about it for remainder of night)
dn v. TMM -- dn wins 2-0
eR v. Envy -- eR wins 2-0
Even Flayra was suprised (he was on IRC) when he found out HAM 2-0ed bm....GGs though guys. I think 2 weeks from now (when playoffs resume), HAM vs OSS will come down to wins the cointoss (I think they'll alien tie, whoever wins cointoss will go alien and win the match.....), but who knows, maybe HAM will 2-0 them.
Hey who's side are you on? <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
Cmon guys every player in a cal match should have a demo. There weren't any complaints this round so no biggie but the fact that half the ppl in these 4 matchs didn't take demo's is kinda disturbing.

why would we take demos when theres HLTV? (that we assumed would actually work)
I'd much rather CAL put some effort into finding reliable HLTV as its way more practical to get one HLTV demo of a match than 12 demos from the players, dont you agree?
I'm as upset as everyone else with the lack of demos, I would love to rewatch our game as I think it was one of the best games we've played.
Weren't you playing?
You see that would go against our master plan though. We plan to crash hltv then edit our demos so it shows us winning NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW!!!!!!
Can you blame 'em? There is no doubt here by probably most of the NS community that evil is the superior clan, and yet OSS managed to take the win because of some stupid coin toss system (and as we all know alien > marine).
oh btw h2o: "it would be surprising if HAM beat the crap out of OSS, but i dont think it would happen. "
?!?!?!?!?!?
play 1 map, if 1-1, play another map, if 1-1 after that, then either the teams can decide to do a 3rd map that night or resume it the next day. it doesnt take ages, every scrim we play is 2 maps, and often if the other team doesnt mind then 3-4 maps, this usually takes about an hour or 2, but NS games only last like 10-15 minuits average, we have had this in place for the entire ESL tournament, which the longest played was 4 maps, the time to do the match was 2 hours i think, not exactly painfully long, hell most public games i play last about that.

Dude, who gives a crap about favorites.
OSS is one of one of the few clans to tie HAM in the CAL season. Not only is OSS much better than people make them out to be, but Evil also lost some of it's better players, no?
I would never underestimate OSS anymore. They can play, and their alien teamwork isn't bad at all.
The reason they have a bad reputation is because in scrims they use complete noobs who often have crap aim and can't play very well, meaning OSS gets owned.
When OSS uses it's best roster, they are actually a very decent clan indeed. I don't think it's enough to beat HAM, but I'm gonna enjoy watching them next saturday anyways.

yeah and I'd still watch it. It was just that entertaining folks
(Look at me use a post just to endorse how much im looking forward to NS:C)
