Oops, probably should have said the "butthurt" was directed towards the "gz server!" people.

Thank you. Next time you'll get rid of uNk in the first round so we can shake hands after the finals, ok?

edit: wow i can choose our first server in L42?

The reason u got kicked was to fill space for the playing teams. I got kicked once and I was playing the next game...Z-Man doesn't know this and it is ok...he can't know of 32 people which to kick and which to not. As for the ban. When u r kicked from a server, there is an autoban of 120 seconds.

Hey thanks for the response, but it doesn't really answer my question. I guess I'm not entirely sure what you meant by fill space for the playing teams. I got kicked at the beginning of the third match; both teams had all their players. My spot was only taken up by another spectator. Also, I had a uNk tag on; whoever kicked me knew I was a part of one of the teams playing. This post isn't meant to target Z-Man or whoever kicked me, just pointing it out so it doesn't happen in the future.

On the R server, spectator kicks were manually triggered by me. I think I took reasonable care that nobody wearing a team tag (scheduled to play) was kicked, and for yitg I had their names all memorized. Mistakes happen, though (with the automatic system, too), especially if server space is limited, and for those cases I'm reachable over IRC or, of course, indirectly via your teammates on the server. Accidental player bans will be reverted ASAP. Things you can do to avoid accidents:
-wear proper tags all the time
-use your correct name. If I see a 'player 1' spectator in the score table, I'll kick him and won't check his GID.
-keep out of the server if you're not playing
-don't use smurf names.
nara: I'll check my admin client logs to see what happened. It's a bit complicated. It was on the R server, right? Not on mine?

Talking shit about me as soon as I enter the server and calling me fatso, blonde fatso, fatface, etc. nonstop? Weak and cheap. And for no reason... As far as I'm concerned neither you or anyone on your team deserves the win or the recognition.

Yeah, it was in the server that held the finals, which I think was R. Thanks for checking, I'm just annoyed that it happened to me twice in a row.

P.S. Aw appa you're not a fatso, blonde fatso, OR fatface.

I know there were some problems with lag and whatnot, but from my perspective, this was a really fun ladle (possibly the best yet!). R has some really close matches with every team we faced, and personally, I think we were playing some of our best, and so was everybody else. Holing was clearly a dominant strategy this ladle. YIDG tore us apart with it and i saw team.unk doing some really nice bits of it in the finals. It looks like fort is developing again! err, continually. Holing was introduced before, but there's still a long way to go with it. Existence is half of it, efficiency is the other. And then there's hole prevention and reaction, which is a whole other ballpark...

What I'm trying to say is: fun ladle, and I like the direction fortress is heading!

Edit: You'll also see 5 different 2-1 matches in total this ladle, compared to 2 total for each of the last 3 ladles. Evening out of skill maybe?
