Today's match
Posted: Mon Jun 29, 2009 12:02 am
Hi,
We only had three pilots show up for todays match, myself, Fresh, and 420, and unfortunately Fresh lost his connection for 1.5 rounds. Mad turned up, but his dial up link just wouldn't allow him to eneter the game - which was frustrating, after galently trying for about 40 minutes he gave up.
Ref made no comment about our numbers and we flew with 3.
I would say that the other teams were quite gracious, there was one comment I noticed about the match being "3 squad" - cant rem who said it, and there may have been other complaints - but I didnt see anything else.
We did our best, and all things considered we did well enough, and had some small success in parts. Once or twice we were pinned, and fiercely, and that wasn't any fun, but I felt on the whole we were sportingly left alone. I felt we caused enough problems .... lol or provided sufficient targets ... not to have ruined the match for the other squads. So I suggest Tbar PM's fresh and 420 to thank them for turning up and seeing it through.
Question is where does this leave BSS and our commitments to the 4 squad league going forward?. We are heading into holiday season for the Northern Hemisphere, Mad isn't likely to be around with only a dial up connection, Tbar's off line for the forseeable, Ledbird signed up for today but couldnt make it ( and remember he has been very reliable in the past - so I am sure a real life issue got in the way there ). So are we confident we will be able to field a team going forward ?
