Match Tonight Ugc 7vs7 and david's comp

We have match tonight against REC for ugc 7vs7 map is broma. I really hope we have enoguh guys to play this match. If we don't it'll be a very hard match. Its at 6:30 pm so it will early. David's computer is messed up I changed his motherbooard to an older one since his was dying. But the older one has some issue with the video card and I can't get the card to pass the direct x diagnostic tests. Its probably the mobo being too old. I'll have to get david a new computer soon.

It's friday

Another week, another friday. We take a day off on fridays but we'll scrim saturday at 3pm. It seems like time goes by so quickly nowadays. I get home from work and then I change and stuff and it'll be like after 6 already. By the time I finish talking to baron or phil or whoever and get the usual things done, it'll be scrimtime. And then after the scrim I eat really fast and get to bed hopefully by 9 or I'll feel horrible the next morning at work. It's like that every week night. I don't even have much time to practice that much. Oh well our season is starting and hopefully we can win the west. I'll try to fix david's computer tommorrow so he can join us in the scrim.

Two new players...and a dreadful end to the preseason

Last night was the last preseason game before we start the ugc 6vs6 next wednesday. We lost 4-3 in overtime, the match was pretty long and was very even. We started two new players, arcsign and heavy killer. Heavy is a friend of baron and is pretty new to the game, while arcsign used to be in a team called snack attack. Their debut didn't go as well as it should've but we did okay considering how heavy experienced a power outage sometime near the end of the first half and baron had some ping issues while i, myself got disconnected by verizon twice because they couldn't keep the internet from dropping me. Let's hope things like that don't happen any more.

Buttsuckers and Match tonight

So we lost last night by a score of 4-0. It was a stupid match. We started the match a man down because they threaten to forfiet us even if we were pass the limit by a minute. David's computer was acting up and crashed and then we started. But then, the trouble didn't end there. My computer started lagging like crazy so we essentially played with 5 against their 7. Of course we lost the first half 3-0. I tell you the truth, if I didn't lag we would've been kicking butts. Anyhow I restarted router at half and the lag was gone. Also, phil came back so kit sat out. That was a bad move as sir daivd couldn't even play cuz of his computer's issues. Well, that ended a rediculous match. Our starters were me, kit, ernest, nick, baron, henry, and david. Tonight we'll own though.

Match Tonight Ugc 7vs7

We play osb tonight at 6:30. We should do good, but we'll probably be having a couple subs play because it's 7's. Also phil will be eating so he probably won't start. Match report tomorrow. I expect us to win.

A new hope

After weeks of dabbling in mediocrity and stumbling on obsticles, I finally believe that our team is heading into the right direction. Although we were unable to get a scrim going last night, what happened saturday has led me to believe that we are serious contenders to taking the ugc 6vs6 crown. It'll be the biggest prize that we can win in the 1.33 year history of bonus points! We still have some problems like getting solid subs and sir david's computer going haywire, but at this moment we're good enough to take out most teams.

We won

Last night we played the japanamation crew. We won the match 4-3. It wasn't as close as the score would indicate. We actually won the match after the first round of the 2nd half. It was a strange game cuz after we were up 4-0, jcrew won the last three rounds to complete the match with a 4-3 score. The map was cp_follower_rc1 so most of us never scrimed it before. I don't know how we lost the second half. There was a bit of confusion with phil's feign d/c so I actually kicked him out. Anyway hope we can do more practicings tonight. Our ugc 6v6 preseason record is now 1-1. Our six last night was me, david, phil, baron, ernest, and henry.

Match Tonight

We have a match tonight at 7:30. It's against japanamation crew and the map is some custom. I'll push for a map change. We better have enough tonight. Last night was embarassing having to use 2 guys feom the other clan during our scrim. I will warn everyone, if things don't change...

Yesterday's Match

We had a match last night against FOoM. It was a 7vs7 on badlands. The match started off pretty even at first. It was like a stalemate where there was a lot capping points and retaking of points. We ended up losing 3-0, but it was close. We made a bunch of mental mistakes that were costly. The match ended with us losing 6-0. I thought we did okay with the roster we had. Baron was top notch as scout, and nick was not far behind. I didn't do all that well and David said the lag was crippling. The rest of us were subs. Many thanks to ernest, kit, joseph, and aaron for playing. Overall, it was good to see all of us playing together. Our next match is Wednesday.

Perhaps too much tf2?

I've been doing some thinking lately. I realize that maybe not everyone wants to play tf2 every single day like myself and phil. I think that after this season is over, we should probably have a longer break so evryone can recharge their batteries. It just seems like most of us are at the point where they just need to get away from it and return later. Well that's just a thought. Everyone is different and I think only me and phil can play this game everyday with out getting crazy.

So much tension...

It just seems like there has been a lot of tension lately in our team. Ever since our internet died it just feels like things has not been the same. After our win Tuesday, I finally thought we were getting back to our oldselves again. But, seeing how we didn't have enough to scrim last night was disheartening. I hope we can get back to practicing regularly again. I know we can do it. We just gotta think positive.

I'll Update More!!!

Hello Everyone,

Starting today I'll do my best to try and give this old blog some new life! I will update this every single weekday during my lunch break at work. I can do this now since I have new G1 phone heheh. Well, anyway last night's match wasn't that great. I should've did much better. I think baron said we'll play them tonight so I hope we'll do better tonight. Good thing UGC has a 6v6 now. I think we can do good. We all just have to work hard.

New Member Wet!!!!

We have a new member Wet!!!  He's kinda old actually since he usually goes along with us to our feasts.  But, now he's in our group officially.

Been Busy

Sorry for the lack of updates, but just been busy with practicing tf2 so I always put updating this blog last.  I'll try to update more.  Recently, we've dropped out of two leagues since we don't have much time to practice so we're focusing more on CAL 6's than anything.  Our starting roster is me, sir david, phil, annie pi, athrun, and the baron of boston.  We've been practicing alot.  I like our starting six, we've been consistently playing without anyone bailing out on us so its a good team.  We've started CAL 6's with a win so thats good and we're still in UGC with a 12-10 record.  This season's been tough, but i think we'll make it.

Bonus Points Christmas Party Refections

Okay, it’s been a while since I last updated the blog. I think the first blog post of the New Year should be a reflective one.

It’s been over a week since Josh has returned to Texas, but I never had the time to think about the things we did for the BP- Christmas Party. Now I think is a good time because it has been a week after and I can look back at all the things we did and give it a proper perspective without forgetting anything or letting the emotions get in the way of things.

First, let me start by just recanting all the things that happened starting with Josh meeting us at the airport to me seeing Josh off at the airport…

It all started on Sunday the 28th of December 2008, Josh’s flight was supposed to come in at 10:45 pm at LAX and I remember that we had to get to the airport earlier and I was pretty excited since we’ve been planning for this for months and it’s finally happening. We had some setback such as Josh’s relatives accusing us of being murderers and Annie not being able to join us till Monday. So I remembered being very glad and relieved that it has finally materialized.  

We left for the airport around 8:30 since we had to go pick up Kit on our way. Kit, myself, Nick, Sir David, and Aaron went with us to pick up Josh at LAX. When we got there we waited around 30 minutes to 45 minutes before Josh actually got out of the plane. I have to say, it was kind of weird to see Josh for the first time. At first I didn’t know it was him. We made two BP- signs so Josh would know that it was us. I was holding one of them and I thought he would be coming down the escalator as most of the passenger did during that night, but there was this white dude wearing a blue sweater that walked down the stairs and he just stood next to us. It was somewhat of an awkward experience at first. I am a pretty shy and reserved person myself, although I did improve myself tremendously over the last five years or so. But sometimes when meeting strangers and whatnot you kind of fall back to your old self and that’s what I did at first. However, I quickly try my best to be a good host and treat him as a friend since we really have known him since he joined us back in February.

So we left the LAX airport and we started off towards Kit’s house and try to find something to eat because Josh was pretty hungry at the time. The ride wasn’t very comfortable for the folks sitting in the back because we took one car and there were six of us. David, Nick, Josh, and Aaron ended up sitting in the back and being very cramped. When we finally found a place to eat I’m sure they were very happy just to be out of the car. We found a place in Alhambra near Kit’s and I think it was called noodle house. It was an all nighter type of restaurant that took over an old Bob’s big boy building. I remembered ordering a noodle soup and I remembered Josh ordering some thin rice noodle soup that tasted like soap. Also, Aaron finally ate a lot which I was very surprised since he never ate a lot. After the dinner we went to take Kit home and then we drove back home to get some rest. We finally got back around 1 or 2 in the morning.
