Requiem beat FTNguyen 8-6 in a game that looked like a usual boring backlob fun time by Requiem, while our asians tried to do something. Mostly they took advantage of various slow lobs by dodging them in uselessly stylish ways. Seriously, they were zigzagging between bombs at full energy for no apparent reason
Apparently somewhere after 27:32 but before 34 something some of our players are a few bombs to keep them from hitting a low life player, which made BizzahBobby need a new pair of trousers. Requiem had a 2-0 lead, then the game was 3-3 for a while. Then magically between 34:52 and 37:42 Requiem had a 3 kill lead, while doing nothing but waiting for someone to run into their bombs and for Sika to lag some kills. Which he did later. The 5-3 and 6-3 kills were just a few bullets and a bomb and a few bullets and a thor for KN and krellin (it was his first day). Here's the finishing chapter
KinGNewbiE kb Sika
KinGNewbiE is OUT! - [44:37]
Score: 8-5 Requiem -- [4v3]
Sika kb The Village Bike -- Assist by: krellin
Sika has 1 life remaining - [44:37]
Score: 8-6 Requiem -- [4v4]
Brave> ROFL
krellin> kn no
Jae> WOW SIKA
BARBARIAN> dat zeroskill lag
Brave> That should be bannable
krellin> no
Dre> kn hoping his team would do something sooner but could not
Captor> sika huge mvp
Jae> lol
Street Figh> what lag?
Caerbannog> Reqiuem isn't a joke at all.
Jamuraan> lagshield on
7th> !items
Yeah. Well played. Lul. Regardless of rather sloppy play, we only had 2 WR total which is good.
Rebels vs. Alpha Reunion I heard no tasty rumors about, so I'll just take what the log has in it for a facT:
BARBARIAN> no clue wtf happened
mindrape> his butt plug popped out momentarily causing him to accidentally mash his keyboard
Seems legit to me. In the end VT is 5-1 again with 6 FR while the other rebels try to keep up.
StarFire Elite seems to have been shut down pretty efficiently by Assassins, the game ending 12-0 in 17:09. 16 FR for Sins.. still 9 WR on SFE.
Sterling vs. Llamas was a rather odd game. Odin flew a leviathan, which quite didn't work out. A few freebies were apparently given out (secret Nguyen tactic), but it didn't work out either. A ton of people in the spec were talking about everything but the game, besides trying to guess the first person to die.
Nuke also had to face the wrath of a leviathan vs. Gods. 10 WR on the side of Gods probably did not help them out too much. Apart from that, I didn't see the game and all I was told about it was that the blue bombs were exploding and pissing off Nuke, while Saiyan got Gods "pretty good".
And Unhallowed picked up +12 from Shocktech.

Apart from the games, other interesting things this week... the oh-my-gosh so dramatic bans.
Seriously. It isn't that hard to not be a total douchebag in pracs. Practices _still_ make up the majority of all SubSpace games, so enforcing rules just for the games that are the most controlled is stupid. Hence bans for pracs.
I refuse to believe I'm the only one who remembers the fun times of people randomly starting to SC to end pracs faster or get back the toys they previously lost on lag outs, causing other people to SC, etc.
Like, totally. It's not very hard to just let the bot handle most of these things. Yes. Get yourself a fresh ship if you "tablag" at the beginning of a prac and it burns you. Don't try to pull this mid-prac.
Most of the douchebaggery just leads to people not wanting to play, since nothing will make sense anyways. Pracs have been in a rather good place recently, don't kill the buzz.
While it might be super cool to totally rebel against... me? It kind of is a huge finger to whoever you're practicing with. I, on the other hand, don't give a rat's ass.
