I posted this on youtube, but the second part didn't get through so I deleted the first part and will now post it all here:

Yeah I did screw* that up. I saw rudy in our zone, and two SP's. I just barely saw olive at the other end of the zone (not literally the opposite end), and saw he had the major part of his tail inside the zone - assumed he was in a situation where he could follow his own tail around.

I was going to do the same - follow my own tail and "share" the zone with rudy. However I noticed his space was limited. Thinking our zone was fine with Rudy and Olive in it, I decided to go for Flex's space, which as you can see in the video, wouldn't have worked anyway since it was such a late decision.
As the team's noob (or rather least experienced and/or skilled forter in my opinion) I did a fairly good tournament overall, but I guess I was bound to make a fatal mistake at some point.

Thanks for uploading this video. Both humorous and useful (for me, atleast) which is a good combination. As for the background music, this song's chorus would be a suitable alternative.

On a sidenote: olive claims to have told me(us) not to leave the zone, but I didn't even notice that since I was overwhelmed with the pressure. I usually listen well to teammates, but the situation got the best of me. I guess that's what defines a good player: handling tough situations under great pressure.

I'm obviously not there yet, but someday.. maybe. :D

Yeah I was kind of shouting through the mic, woke my dad up, he wasn't happy.

The spectators chat are sometimes hilarious.

One thing I'm kind of missing in the recordings is viewing the score. Sort of removes suspense from the match.

It would also be cool to view more than one player at once. Maybe use split-screen and record with 4 (25% as big) windows? Three with different players and one constantly showing the score.

Your current recordings are awesome though. Thanks for uploading :D

Well, Ive recorded from Z-Mans aa-recordings lately, the first few I did were direct recordings with my own program, which is way better. When running an aarec, I'm pretty much scared to touch anything because it crashes easily. :P I'm taking all of these tips in account, for next time when I'm either not sub for the team thats in the finals and not sick. :D (which happened last 2 times)

So, thanks for the tips and keep em coming. Am also taking song requests if people are sick of mine, heh.
