Obviously one of your famous "shocker" statements to get everyone's attention and to make them think.  Your way of snapping us back to reality.  This is not a high school locker room at half time of the big game. 

Truth of the matter is that we all have lives outside of TF2.  I have shared my reasons with you for not signing up.  For the others I simply do not feel I am contributing to the team.  I want to win but having fun is the most part.  In the last scrim we had, on top of us getting killed, it was just a big argument.  I really got tired of hearing the whining and bitching.  I was just glad all talk was not on.  Would have been really embarrassing.  I am all for informal scrims but I am out of the league play for a while. 

It wasn't my intention for this thread to turn into a powder keg...i was more commenting on how unrealistic HLstats looks that 5 ppl playing could outscore 56 pds players. 

That said, I think PdS is a great clan.  Its non-competitive and Razor is right...its for Ppl who have lives.  ( I quoted Razor at the beginning, only because i thought the way he put it was completely hilarious, but I think he was trying to say what he just did later in this thread)  GwDR is the same way.  It's about having fun and Bullshitting with friends while you play.

This. This is better. If the most we can be is a group of well-liked players that can play a good, fun round, then that's a job well-done.

See, that's already fucked up. A player should never feel at stake or guilty for not doing "good enough".
Like razor said, this isn't fucking a high school football team. Hardball statements and shit won't work, it's actually counter productive from my experience. Players won't come together for you, they'll just give up since they can't please you.

exactly. like what if in a match we just randomly all went melee? or if we ubered a spy? or if we fought our asses off to build a turret in a totally weird place? or if instead of shooting enemies we only taunted them? just crazy weird shit that would be funny. we wouldn't have to do it the whole time, but if instead of trying to actually out-capture the enemy what if we tried to out-fun them or make them laugh or just confuse the shit out of them.

About my statement earlier...
I was really sour about the match yesterday and I'm back on the whole trying to get everyone better through practice.

I know pDs is great because it is noob friendly, but I get angry when we can't even have enough people to run a 7 person match when there are 30 people signed up.
Just don't sign up if you aren't going to play  :(

Or you can check to see all names registerd and PM them via steam friends. Thats what I did the last time I needed people for a scrim, ended up getting 3 people more then I needed. Just PM everyone, trust me it works wonders.

But that's just the thing I do.
People could at least check the TWL site to see if they can make the next match.

Words of wisdom from a 41 year old kid:  Think about what you say prior to writing it.  It will go a long way towards getting your point across.

Pissy???  You make a statement that 'most'  pDs players suck .and you are surprised at the reaction you got?  Take it from someone older than Razor... think things thru before you put them out for the world to see and hear.. most especially if you're upset or angry... makes for less drama... and substantially less people who are pissy or pissed off at your comments.

I second the notion of doing absurd things, like all spy matches.

Lead Salad has improved a thousand fold from even a month ago, and I for one actually enjoy having him around here now. Not to be too affronting, but yeah, some of the shit that comes out of your mouth isn't veiled enough; if you want to be mean but sound nice, you have to be a woman first. For the rest of us, mind-to-mouth filters.

But to return to topic, gwdr is a hacking guild. The FBI is currently looking into them, expect their cheating ways to end soon.
