That disgusting group of people who prefer being relatively good rather than objectively bad (but still better then the former), will force themselves to stagnate.That's why next season, the top performers of DRTL, are being moved up to CRTL.
The harsh truth is that quite a few top performers put up their hand for CRTL who were consistent winners on DRTL and no teams made the effort to express interest and let them know to sign up for them even just as a substitute. The mentality of those players was probably then, "well if nobody really wants me on CRTL then I guess I will sign up for DRTL where I know people will actually want me on the team". Its not like they were rude or anything, there was simply no response, no interest when the posts were made, so we kinda just sat there twiddling our thumbs. One poster even said, I hope we don't have too many D+ players in this league or something around those lines.
I just hope that next season the CRTL will greet D+ players with open arms and let them play even if it comes to the detriment of the team. Although I'm not sure I can see that happening. That's the problem.
Perhaps we should have a D+/C- Team league?
I don't really want to get involved in more drama, but no one from DRTL expressed much interest in CRTL cept me, you and Nikon afaik. - Just to clarify the error in your statement.
True, I don't want to create more drama either but I wanted to address this issue because people kept bringing it up and I believed that it would keep coming up. I know puppy has the right attitude, but this attitude needs to be shared amongst everyone in CRTL I think.
It seemed like more at the time, I edited my post to make it more relevant. Like the fact that no PMs were sent out by teams to take the ace DRTL players on board either even though it was mentioned several times on CRTL thread with the list posted. I'm sure that would have made a difference.

You're forgiven, it's not a big deal, just everyone seems to be done with it... I mean, the whole point of holding the discussion here was for Nikon to respond to it. (from my perspective) ... Though its clear now he has no interest in responding to that concern.

Also 3 out of 3, out of us, none were signed up?
True, for us three, I entirely agree, but that doesn't take away any merit from puppy's statement. From the list I proposed, no one commented (from either side), not the players who were called out, nor the C ranks teams.

Stop being inflammatory and disrespectful. Nikon has a life too, it's a Sunday (I wouldn't want to deal with all of this shit as a coordinator on a weekend, I'd rather relax and do what I like to do, maybe get to it later) and I see no reason why he should be expected to give official responses in less than 24 hours.

I'm not even going to bother since you clearly have an ego issue every time you see me post. I wasn't even further arguing my point, I was just pointing out the purpose of my previous argument.

Says the guy who BMed me in and out of the game after his loss, including floating his buildings away to different corners of the maps, forcing me to have to eliminate him. Did you BM Jealous like how you did me when he beat you?

Stop. seriously. Stop. there is no benefit whatsoever in attacking each other and especially doing so by posting it here.

You should cast Psyonic_reaver vs Arya[wok], really interesting game :D
Thanks for the game Psyonic_Reaver! GG's. True gentleman as well. May our paths cross again in the playoffs VOD can be found here: http://nl.twitch.tv/artanisxp/b/312920682
The first replay for week 4 DesPa vs Courage (Lite[Orbit] vs Ravelyn) was bugged. That is definitely not how the game turned out :S.
For some reason, when starting the replay, half the time it bugs out and the other half it doesn't. It was a super epic game though.
At 15:00, the storm drop that occurs in the bottom left should be killed off by 2 scourge. If only 1 scourge actually hits, the replay is messed up, and you'll have to restart it >_<
Another way to tell is at 16:34. The storm on the two lurkers at the top of the nat should kill both lurkers, not leave one in the red.
