Hey guys!

This will be basically for replays and links to videos and such. The main stuff will most likely happen in TS sessions.

Welcome to the program!

I stopped counting the T34's at some point. At the end there were barely any units left on the field from either side. GG WP

Good thing vehicle vet is working at least lol. Luchs definetly being MVP here since that thing just scales through the roof on vet 4. Besides that there were 3 King Tigers called in in a single 1v1.

I think Relic is actually working closer with the community Ipkai. They just do it with the wrong people.
I remember when you did ESL and received 0 from them, I remember Ami organizing OCF and receiving (next to) 0 from them, I remember me organizing tons of events with Rewind & One4One and receiving next to 0 support. For 141, I received some though.

It's because of our job, things like ESL now is actually working a bit. It's cause of events like OCF that people got interest again in these tournaments and it's because of the community's effort that this game is where it is. Months after months, Relic came up with ridiculous patches which made the game nearly unplayable. Cause of community efforts by playing the alpha, giving feedback and hammering on changes, that the game is where it is. It's because of the guides people wrote, cause of the Facebook VonKluge and his maintained, the events and casting by us, Stormless and others, the game is where it is.

Relic can kiss our hands and wash our feet cause we did this cause it helped their game becoming enjoyable. Many of us have put hours and hours of time in a game and got next to 0 recognition of Relic's side but I believe that has changed a bit. (Ingame adds, community spotlight, ...).

Newschoolers will disagree as they were not in the process which got the game to this stage. But who cares?

100$ Prizes? 250$ Prizes for ESL? Weird seeding, crappy overlays, A_E as lead caster who is only after promoting his channel, EU players winning NA brackets, always the same winner on EU side, weird rules, max 1000 viewers, ...
Call that an improvement? Lol. Compare that to the +2500 viewers of OCF, the hype, prizepool.

Yeah, improvement. Sure.

Your shit is really starting to get on my nerves. I'll come to the questionability of pretty much all your post on this page recently in a bit but first of all,
what the hell is "wrong people" supposed to mean?! Are you saying that people like A_E, Stormless and GG and the rest of that awesome casting team are wrong to work with?
And if so who should Relic then be working with?!

"Relic can kiss our hands and wash our feet" is most selfentitled bullshit I heard in a while. Who ever forced you to do anything for the game? You like(d) it and are therefore sacraficing your free time for
it. Alright that's fine and honorable since you are trying to bring joy to other people too but I hardly doubt that Relic ever asked you personally to do anything like that so what gives you the right
call them out for "not supporting" you in the way you want?

Where is the problem with A_E promoting his channel since he is already not receiving any money for what he does? Starting something with a 100$ prize pool that you haven't tried before from a topic that
you are not that experienced on is bad? Yeah Relic should totally throw 10.000$ out there for a single event that has no hype around it yet. Face it dude Relic is a company. They are trying to make money and
not to serve the community as a benefitial organisation or some crap. Trying to build and form a competetive scene with the help of ESL is gonna make their games interesting to a wider customer base and will
through that help to improve the success of the company. That's what it is and should be about.

"Allways the same winner on EU side" <-- beside that being simply wrong I don't understand what you are trying to say here? If every single tourney would be won by the same guy then what? Might be boring,
but the point of competetive events is that the best one wins and if one of them is significantly better than everyone else then that's it, doesn't matter if boring or not. On a side not I would be really
interested what you would suggest to "fix" this "issue" lel.

I am with you on the players swapping between EU and NA brackets. That is indeed very silly. That should prolly be changed in a way that players can only sign up for one of them and they have to do so indepent of other players that
already signed up.

2500 viewers on OCF, I am pretty sure that stuff was featured on the Twitch homepage which ESL up to this point wasn't as far as I know. Regarding the whole OCF prizepool thing I just want to say that I don't
think that this should be mentioned as a prime example of how to manage that stuff (don't want to jump on anyones feet here). Don't get me wrong I am not talking about the crowdfunding but the way this money
was handled is imo really questionable and I could imagine relic saw that the same way and might have not supported it for that reason.

So much for the fun and nice part. Now this is gonna get a little harsh but I feel like it has to be said:

You failed with Rewind events and stopped an ongoing tourney right in the middle which pissed a lot of people (including myself as a player in that very tourney) off a lot. Relic didn't support you at that
point and it appearently was the right descision. Then you started your 141 thing together with the great crew (seriously those guys are doing great work) behind that which actually looked really promising. Still I didn't expect much because I expected you to throw it
all again over some stupid ass personal balance believes again. I am just terribly sorry for the rest of that team that put together that great stuff for you screwing them over which is why I am happy so see VET3
rising up. However Relic decided to support you with that second attempt. That's right. They decided to support an over emotional crappy caster who already threw a project like that before over some personal bullshit.
If Relic ever made questionable descisions there is one. Now you obviously decided to ruin 141 too fucking everyone over who put work in it because YOU think the balance is bad. Where do you even get your
understanding of balance from?! You're shit at the game and your borderline retarded suggestions at the balance forums are leaving me with the impressions that you are not the learning from viewing type of guy either.

You then thank god did decide to leave the community and play CSGO. Alright thank you get the hell outta here and stop being a whiny jealous bitch towards VET3 events as well as writing about stuff in the forums
that you have clearly no idea of.

Stop annoying everyone here with your senseless horseshit and leave this game and it's community for what ever will happen to it.

I think I watched that on Schrecks too once. It won't display the weapon until the squad is reinforced I think?
