I still don't like the color flashing thing; but since it was only once or twice, I'd say it didn't bring this down at all. Excellent job!
Relax, lounge around, and find out who hacks.

I agree with your comment about it being a good fotw, but I feel you imply that players of lower skills aren't featured on account of not being known. From what I've heard from most FOTW makers, they're usually dying for good clips to fill their flick. Any lack of lower players in FOTWs should be attiributed to lower players not providing quality frags.corpse wrote:nice work on the video. good to see other players being used for the fotw aswell. looking forward to the next
point one totaly true, but who cares about it, at least i am getting along with most poeple and of right know even get asked to ring for main teams even if i do shitty.joeledmunds wrote:The only reason I bothered making this post is that I've noticed a lot of players making out some big bias in the community towards lower players. Generally the reason lower players aren't predded or put in FOTWs is because they're not fragging at the level of upper players. It's been the same way for years, and those of us who were in IM back in the day never complained about it. This isn't targeted specifically at you corpse, just a response tpo a common sentiment I've noticed around the community.
I totally understand that too, and I don't doubt that there's plenty of quality players in O and IM. I'm just saying that they're not getting in the fotws because they're not submitting anything, or anything worth putting in. And while there's plenty of good players, their teams probably aren't up to skill enough to be recognized, and thta's why they aren't getting predictions done for their teams. A simple solution to this is to get an active community of intermediate and open players. Back when I was in O and IM it was the same, upper player would only pred M/I matches, whilelower predictions were done by the interested polayers in those divisions.Pr0n wrote:point one totaly true, but who cares about it, at least i am getting along with most poeple and of right know even get asked to ring for main teams even if i do shitty.joeledmunds wrote:The only reason I bothered making this post is that I've noticed a lot of players making out some big bias in the community towards lower players.

second isalso pretty much right, there are some people in lower that could send in their stuff but i doubt that they are registered over here or give a damn to be in it, porbably theses guys are mostly the kind of players dont wanna put work into their playing skills anymore and just wanna have pressure free fun.
i honestly doubt that this is going to happen, like i said i am under the impression that most open player are just playing for fun with hardly an aspect of hard league competition. i am already happy with that many 12 mans going on at the moment and that there arent anymore only 12 mans organiced by the regular invite/main guys, which is good spot to learn, for someone like me but playing like more then 2 or 3 of em and your psychological destroyed or your concentration is on a total low point, at least i got the concentration issue and at least in 4th match i get horrible scores, like real horrible.joeledmunds wrote:A simple solution to this is to get an active community of intermediate and open players.
