Hey guys, Kosh here speaking.

Iam simply here to post about a major issue that BOTH eGO teams are having for the 5 vs 5 INS league/ ladder.

from what iam seeing, both teams seem to not be able to have enough members at any given point for a competative scrim with another clan.

For example, the April 3rd match (saturday) where the eGO elite team was supposed to play against team USMC, there was only 2 of the 9 eGO elite team members there while on the OTHER hand, team donkey punch with its own 9 members, had a total of 2 members as well when the team was SUPPOSED to play against team Anzin.

Now, i know that it was an easter weekend and iam sure everyone or a majority of people were busy having some time with their family and friends

BUT and this is a big BUT here, when suddenly for example, there is an announcement in the Donkey Punch thread saying that there is a match with Anzin yet there is no time what so ever or date as to when it is, The team than would have a problem of responding to a private message from one of the Anzins saying as to when the match would take place so there might be a break there but, the problem here is
WHEN the team gets an announcement saying that there is going to be a match against another clan, it would be advisable that the head of the team should be posting it soon as the challenge was made.

NOW there is another scenario here:
When for example, the eGO elite team has an announcement in advance
(with one of the rooms in our INS channel in vent saying the time and date of the scrim) saying that they have a match against the USMC team on April the 3rd (saturday) and when only 2 of the 9 members shows up in the League server while team USMC has a full 5 ready, we have a big problem there!

Seems to me that a majority of the members from both teams are either having problems with the time, or are simply not prepared for the up coming match with regards to their real life. OR, a bad case scenario would be that people either read and forget about the post made by there team leader, ignore it, or simply assume that the other members would be there.

Now i know that there are solutions that i could suggest but its best leaving it at this since iam hoping that one of the advisors would read this and recommend having a meeting for both eGO team members to participate and have a talk about the current problem for BOTH teams.

P.S

Since both teams did not have enough members and INS league regulations has stated that no non-official members are allowed to play, BOTH teams were forced to forfeit and make their opposition waste there time getting their members in.

I think that sums it up.
So to both team members, please do read this thread. It is important that everyone knows what is going on right now and what the main problems are for both teams.
 
You all ready know how I feel about this Kosh. We have to get the teams together to talk. Hopefully we don't forfeit and reschedule that one!
 
hmm, i just can't play during the weekens i love to play in scrims and i am backup in donkeypunch, but it seems every time the scrims are planned i can't make it, problem is that we don't put teams together that are aivalabe at a same time, but we put teams together based on skills what causes this problem, everyone has real life duties, so personnally i don't understand why we keep making an elite team based on skills or same with donkeypunch, instead of making teams based on time aivalable, i am a little bit tired of repeating this, i've told this before and the problem still exist, so i'll just say it one more time:
we make a sticky where everybody who wants to scrim put the times aivalable when they can play each time in the week, random times would be invalid, only the times when you absolutly can play (holidays not counted in). I don't want to add anything more, this is all i have to say about this subject.
 
This came up at one of the last roundtable discussions as well. We have had a problem with the division as a whole signing up for events / teams and not attending.

For Donkeypuch at least, I know Jesus requested all team members to send him times for availability, so hopefully that should help with the arrangement.

If I remember correctly, the April 3rd scrim came up rather quickly, so on short notice it's hard to get enough people setup to play. For scrims at least, I don't know that we would be bound by INS League regulations since they aren't official games, and if that comes up again I think we have more than enough active members to fill slots in order to not waste another clan's time.

Im glad you feel this way kosh, this is exactly the problem i have with the league , is if im not around. Nothing happens, if im not around nobody knows what to do.

This is why i want to have a team meeting today and talk to everyone, of what im expecting.

The mess that happend on saturday is understandable due to easter.

The big problem i have with this is that we look very bad, with USMC taking the time to show up for the match and we having to forfeit.

A team meeting is needed ASAP.

I dont want this to happen again.

Also i have an idea on how to fix all of this to make it easier for everyone.

True.. I have mentioned this part and understand the situation where we were told of a challenge but never told of the time we would have in at a earlier circumstance. There can be several reasons for this which , i might add, is not good since the challenge against Anzin and a pm from one of the members about the time, has simply been too fast for all of the Donkey punch members to prepare for. I just hope we are announced sooner and unlike what happened between the eGO elite team and USMC, we DO get there and meet up with team Anzin.

This means we need to be told sooner ahead of time , and have our scrims 1 week ahead as well WITH a pm and also written on the Donkey punch thread.

I just hope we in BOTH teams make sure we dont forfeit like that again.

100% agreed with you and Kosh. We can't say were going to do things, but not commit to it. Its not fair for anyone
 
I hope you all show for the mandatory meeting im going to have with EC's and Current Team Members.

This will be a mandatory meeting..

If you don't show for this meeting your access, will be removed! or removed from the team.

If you cant make it...YOU MUST PM ME!
 
I am would like to join this team If I can play the matches On Friday and Saturday. Those are the only days that I'm open for a match. If you need help organizing, Making an advertisement for youtube (I'm Really Good) or backing up a player who cannot make It I will be glad to help you guys with anything you need.
 
Hope this post can make the eGO teams more active from now on. If this happens, i will continue play to the best of my abilities with a reason of Wanting to be in the best competative scrim team in Insurgency. :)
