Your cutting it close, Doyle. I shall talk to Lordship about the judging position, and add you to the roster.

It's in on time, HisLordShip agreed, what more do you want?!

Just a chat with my feathered confidant. Is that to much to ask?

Hang on a second, there's a few problems here that seem to have been glazed over for whatever reason:

1. HisLordship is not a member of The Corporation (as in he's not in your usergroup). A problem easily solved, but a problem nonetheless.

2. You didn't cut it close, you failed to make the cut. The Team Tournament rules couldn't have been clearer on the fact that you needed four people to form a team, not three.

Why is it that the rules have been broken so willingly for The Corporation? To be honest, I really don't care who it is, but it makes it unfair for everyone else who might've wanted to form a group but couldn't due to numbers. Why not just join the Individual or Tag Team Tournaments if you don't have enough members?

1. Nowhere did anyone say that the judge needed to be part of the group, all we needed was a judge to represent us. If this is a problem, I'm sure HisLordShip wouldn't mind joining the Corporation for the duration of the tournament.

2. WRONG. This is from the GW recruitment topic on Gameware.

Yes, the prospect of taking on three mechs has me shaking in my boots... just ask them:
3kul's left boot: Your mechs have an uncanny knack to get destroyed within a single post, I don't see what we could possibly be scared of to cause us to shake about.
3kul's right boot: No doubt I will soon be meeting the posterior of said mechs, assuming that they have one.

In any case, apologies for jumping the gun there, I was going by the old rules and didn't notice that the team limits had been lowered.

Micheal_Rawlings · Master of RP Old Friend Corporate CEO Posts: 78

Yeah team minimum is now... two I guess. I suppose you could have one, but what good would that do?

All right 3kul, you're right. Our mechs will probablly be so useless that it won't even matter. Very Happy

You just keep that thought in your head, completely ignoring the fact that those aren't actual characters, but rather an army, one which serves a general purpose, but doesn't have anyone controlling the individual units.

Oh damn, I just blew our element of surrise didn't I? Drat.

There there Rawlings, even the best of us make mistakes sometimes.

I was more commenting on the actual abilities (or rather the lack thereof) that your mechs possess. But by all means, assume what you will about the contents of my head, it'll make my job all the easier.

".... and you have a nice day sir. Nice doing business with you"

*Goron waves to a man walking away*

"Well you can take down the space for rent sign in your head 3kul, I just made a deal with that fellow. He wants to grow cookies!" Very Happy

But seriously, don't complain 3kul, we can have fun kicking their Corporate Arses!

That's rather cruel Goron, I never picked you to be a swindler - there's barely enough room in my head for one cookie with all that brain matter in there, let alone a farm full of them. Wink

But anyways, don't get me wrong Goron, I was complaining because I thought that they were breaking the rules, which would have been unfair for the people who wanted to get a team together but couldn't. I'm all for arse-kickery.

Well, that guy wil be along any day and he'll probablly want my head...

*Puts on a cloak and hides in a bush*

As for the arse-kicking... this depends on how DP decides to seed us. There is one scenario where the Corporation doesn't get to fight either of our teams, one where they get to fight both, and a bunch of others in between...

Anyone care to take guesses at the seeding?

1. EC Team________

2. Blackstar Team___

3. Guardian Team___

4. Corporate Team__

I would personally like to attack The Guardians first. We have a few surprises up our sleves for those prissy little... Oh, hello Goron.

Oh come one, you'd rather not have an epic showdown in the final match?

What a spoilsport...

And what the hell did we every do you be prissy little... Oh, hello Gorons?
