From my understanding, Codename II tried to use their brazilian server to accomodate the match and that's was promptly denied by 151 - which was absolutely correct given that TPG matches should be held on US servers. And then, after many minutes of discussion, the match was moved to Codename's US server, that has an AMX running on it. After defiance came in and the AMX was disabled, the match was played and 151 steamrolled codename II. After the match, Diego reported a FF win for their team. Did I summarized it correctly? LMAO...

Well, first of all, I don't agree with Paul Coon's opinion, putting us all South Americans in the same bag and what not. We don't have a problem like this in quite some time and thankfully for open teams, there are 2 or 3 south americans open eams that were put in Open so that we could have an Intermediate division aka balanced divisions. Three or 4 seasons ago, pub clans were just destroyed for sandbaggers/lower teams with invite players and since last season, open division seems to be very stable and we would like to keep it that way.

For the rest of you guys, just let this situation be water under the bridge. Codename's guys are a bunch of cool guys and some of them are inexperienced at the game. I believe Diego will serve his 1 week suspension to think about not submiting wrong results, especially if the match was indeed played. Don't forget that if you're playing in Open a) you're not experienced enough at the game, in all possible levels and b) you don't have the time/care/got old to play in upper divisions.

On a totally random side note:

You got the general gist. We had to go back to the original server when they couldn't, or wouldn't, disable amx, which added another 10 minutes. It was annoying when they got nearly their whole team in the original server just to force a move over to theirs. Annoying when they conveniently forgot how to read English for 20 minutes when we mentioned amx. Annoying that they conveniently remembered when defiance joined. Annoying that typing the original server info into console added another 10 minutes, and finding their way from spawn to take screen shots added another 5. But maybe we just weren't meant to be best friends.

I was wrong in about 90% of my predict thread. But for this...

I know the server, it has amx, I've played matches on it before and figured if anything gets sketchy it will just be an easy dispute.
They know it, we know it, so whatevs. I think it's cool they even have a US server.
I would say STFU, but it sounds like they had some real conduct issues, with the erroneous ff report and the server discrepancies.
Nobody was surprised you rolled them.

I've had the opportunity to play on a SA team on an SA server, and it was quite an epiphany.
I learned lot of these SA players are way better than you'd think.
Playing through the connectivity conditions is much more difficult than I'd anticipated.
I defer to their tenacity on that point.

I dont care about playing south americans, d7 has a chicago based server and they are cool as hell. Umad didnt have a server but they showed up and played with no issues. Had this team been american i would of flipped out even more, at least here there is an arguable language barrier. My issue was, which going back to cass saying open teams lack experience in skill/dealing with matches, is I have been told they have done this to multiple teams but most teams give in or ARE inexperienced enough to not know they can fight back against the bullshit they pull. They clearly try to use scare/sneaky tactics such as reporting a ff loss even though defiance is in the server telling them they have to play or THEY forfeit. To after deiance deletes the ff they report, and we play they report it AGAIN. They were hoping we'd cave and that the "we are home team argument applies to non us servers", it's ridiculous and they should be punished more than they were. They have a team in cal-im so they are not all "new". Playing with bad pings is something they CHOOSE to do, so i give them no sympathies, it's not our fault they have to play in an american league.


We have always accomadated including playing foo fighters 5v5 cause they didn't have six. This attitude that chuck and crafty has towards us is out of their own issues with resentment and the fact that us jokingly complaining about a predictable schedule makes us whiners. Which in reality anyone who knows us over the many years we've been around know todo just likes to talk out of his ass, moosh is an instigator and we as a whole are just trying to have fun for one hour a week. Get over your issues with your false ideals of us sandbagging and accept that, we struggled hard in the first 4 weeks finding six and finding six who have done more than pub twice. I can show old ss's of mcsane/salus and sey playing what was their first 3-4 mathes EVER. Now i was able to fill our gaps, we wont be open next season, so just get over it.

Akiro, I'm not sure if your entire text is pointed out for me but just to make things clear I haven't said anything about you guys sandbagging. Hell, I don't even know you guys! And I haven't tried to defend them in anyway either. I support 100% their leader's suspension as well. Perhaps other teams not complaining about their misguided attitudes in the past led them to think they could just use the "I'm the home team" card and ff the match. My previous comment was pretty much pointed to Paul Coon's generalism towards south americans. Not to mention that codk don't know ANYTHING about english and they have to use google translator for everything. If they can't even read rules properly how can you assume they will be able to talk with guys promptly and correctly hahaha... anyway, let's just move on shall we? ;)
