Breaking news: honkey being booted from his own team is still absolutely hilarious.

I beat homer in a 1 v 1. And i didnt get booted from my team. I wasnt reinvited... cant really blame them when i spent all of last mwc in a drinking trance and showed up for nothing. But ya myrk... remember it was honkeys team that raped you in the finals, and remember you are lurking around the forums in a tournament you probably cant find a team for, and remember you got benched in the finals... lol. Must suck to have less rings than me.

i can't believe honkey put together a team with the soul purpose to eliminate myrk's chances of ever getting a mwc ring
I guess at this rate, since east wind is no longer on NC, myrk will have a chance to rejoin NC?

- Sasper is furious that after over 300 posts Vantobia does not get any mention, not even bad stuff. But then again this could be a good thing.
- Vihaan still struggles to hide his identity from fellow teamates by name changing, only ever takes about 5 seconds to work out who he is after joining a game.
- Drunken will play in MWC after wasting his life away on D3. Scouts report he is now able to click on average 4000 times per minute but needs to where a wrist brace to treat his carpal tunnel sydrome.
- MC has been report to be strategising like a banshee for the last 2 weeks for QR1 maps, he will almost definatly tell his team mates the plan at least 10 seconds before end of planning time, maybe 5 seconds.
- Sight has been practicing all of his rage quotes to barrage at enemy teams that defeat us this tourney. Something about yo momma jokes and if Zyzz was yo father jokes.
- kirk will be playing for Deer this MWC on vants dummy account.

LOL! If this true honkey you can add me to your roster, but I'll only show up when we play myrk.

yup NC benched me and lost all by themselves much worse than not being allowed to play one game of the finals and having your team win as a result of you not being there, then getting kicked for being generally worthless

Sometimes I don't recognize drama before it's too late, but I know some of you love it!
tl;dr warning
Anyway, let's go public with this because it's only mildly amusing to me but I expect some serious drama from at least a few of you, so don't let me down:
After 20+ games played in 3 years, with half of them theater with kirk or coop with newbs, it should've been obvious where my Myth state of mind was when Homer recruited me 2 weeks ago. Seeing some of the roster, despite my complete out-of-touchness re:current skill levels, confirmed Homer's word that this wasn't a 'serious' team despite Paris being on it (no offense to fellow placeholders still there).
My first mistake was thinking Homer was in charge. My last mwc team (09?) had a good chance until Paris foolishly dummied in a meaningless match only to get suspended for the next match, which was far more crucial. Care or don't care, but don't be a hypocrit twice when in either paradigm. I predicted and credited Paris' leadership for A, but his style just does not jibe with me at all. I imagine my lack of effort could be equally frustrating for him.
That could've been acceptable had the second issue, the 'not caring' part, remained true, but of course it's not. I'm not entirely sure why they would've recrutied me. My activity and care -- and commensurate contributable goods -- isn't a tenth of theirs. When I saw Rodeki11 putting his team together, I assumed Toxyn was either just an afk-hopeful-but-placeholder or an outright dummy. When I learned he was actually playing, I almost bailed then since he's a bro from way back and one of the very few people I'd actually hang out with.
Beyond those two strikes are three lesser ones. My role, even had I stayed, was going to be diametrically altered at the worst time. I told them that if they had any plans on relying on me as a captain, I should test that out during QR in preparation for DE since even in my waning tryhard years I could barely muster the strength to type orders to counter the stupidity of my team. With GKG planning on skipping QR, I'd guess he'd captain DE. This doesn't bother me in the least, but if my role is to be 'not captain', I'd like that luxury in the QR as well. I don't begrudge the position to anyone.
The second minor strike is EW coming over. He's a good guy. From his TA of me in 07, after being on a decent team with him in 06, I got the sense he felt betrayed or at least confused why I would leave a good thing. At the time (06), it was pretty obvious Raz was trying to groom EW to take over the leadership aspect as he was easily the most caring. I called him Raz Jr, but Raz's Echo would've been more accurate. That might sound harsh but it's not, and anyone around then would agree. Maybe EW would say so himself, but he doesn't care for the Top Dog role even though he could've had it then. Like Adrenaline, he is driven to be good at this game, wasted though it is with few to witness and fewer to judge. I imagine his mantra is, "If you can't help me win games, I have no use for you." Despite his usually calm demeanor, I've seen him flip out at the most unlikely/undeserving targets in the most inappropriate situations, like a 'roid rage. That said, if you want to win and have an established leader already, this is the best kind of teammate.
The third minor strike was hearing that Nemesis was also coming on board. I realize the utility of having good clickers on a team, and certainly others have managed to utilize his skills, but for me he's the equivalent of a black QB: tremendous athleticism that gets him past most of the competition, but just too stupid to understand anything more complex than "Grok smash!". After his whinefest on ABS that put even the normally laid-back Chron into stfu-mode, Nem's one of only two players I refuse to be on a team with.
After EW told me last night in a game, publicly not because he's a dick but because he knows I wouldn't care, that I was booted, I actually felt relieved and almost immediately pm'd RK to add me. I also felt a little ashamed at not having bailed at the first hint of impending shittiness. Paris also pm'd me today, saying "thanks for the heads up". EW, not Paris, tells me I'm off the team. Why would Paris expect direct communication from me? Also, I imagine he was trying to act hurt because he wasn't actually able to get Nem to captain until GKG shows up, which is hilariously karmic. I do think Paris is capable of manipulating Nem, so this might only be a temporary separation.
