We have been struggling to get a team out for the past 2 weeks with a lot of people on holidays, but things should be settling down now. Unfortunately, Casc is gone on holidays and when he comes back, he might be losing his ISDN permanently. This would be a big pity since he has always been so reliable. I just hope the new patch makes the netcode playable enough so that he can at least take part in trainings if he ends up on modem.
Yesterday we played the group leaders illusion. At first they had similar problems to CAF in week 1… two of them on pings of 400. So we changed to a different server and it sorted their connections nicely and put them all on pings of 60. They won comfortably on cpm13, but dm6 was a different story. They had a good lead of 18 or 20 frags, and the game was taking a similar pattern to the first match. Then Bug got an important phone call from work, and the game was paused for a few minutes. I don’t know what happened next, but CAF must have decided to drop a player rather than wait for Bug, and let the game finish 3v3. There were 8 minutes or so remaining I think, and things started to go our way. We made a nice comeback as Lorc and sk began to own. With one minute to go there were 3 frags seperating the teams, and I was sure we would win it. But alas, they managed to keep their 3 points and after beating CAF last week, I expect them to win this division outright.
