[quote name='Mookyjooky']We kept trying to tell you to stop the game…..but after the 8th round of the same map….no one would end it…or tell you to end it. Believe me, me and jimmie mac were screaming for it to stop….So I left and sent invites to 7 people to start some Matchmade games. Talk about being rude all you want, but those games were getting as fun as watching your parents fu(k…..(not very)[/quote]
That was on the first game, and I heard every word of the commentary, mostly from Jimmie about it. When it was over, you happily jumped into the next one, as well as everyone else there.
[quote name='Mookyjooky']I didn’t invite you, cause that was your game……figured you were happy playing it…..[/quote]
I didn't expect an invite, and I have no issue wih that. I was having fun and enjoying the game. Until it ended prematurely. The leaving in the middle is what rubbed me the wrong way. Why not just wait it out until the end?
[quote name='Mookyjooky']Theres getting to be too many people in the clan to make everyone happy….and some people will get left out in the rain once in a while, it sucks….but it happens.[/quote]
I like the size of the clan as it is, since with more than 70 people, chances for a large game are usually quite good in the evenings. If we all showed up at once, it might be a little hard to get some good games in. "Some people will get left out in the rain once in a while"? WTF is with that? I've never felt that way playing with the clan, and even with my skill level less than others in the clan, I'm enjoying every minute that I have, even when I'm getting pwned by superior tactics and teamwork.
[quote name='Mookyjooky']This is a great reason of why I’m happy I’m not Staff….I don’t have to kiss other players ass and walk on eggshells to make people happy for something I’m not even getting paid to do….Just because people are Staff, everyone thinks that they’re should be 3 in every game holding everyone’s hand…..making everyone happy with the joyous event of only their presence. (Not talking for Staff, but mearly a concept of what I see...again, not talking for Staff)
Staff, I am not jealous of you one bit….when I get online and play….I get to play….[/quote]
If you think staff is for kissing ass and walking on eggshells to make people happy, then you need to rethink what staff does. I don't need staff holding my hand, just providing some leadership during the specificed practice period. Beyond that, any leadership is a bonus. And some people do things because they like them, not because they're paid. Money isn't always a motivation. When I'm online and play, I play. One way or another.
[quote name='Mookyjooky']There's a lot of bitching online, and when I say it here I get 14 trolls for every comment…..Staff messaging me tell me to “watch my mouth” and shit…..
Remember when I came up with the idea of the draft and 6 people said it was stupid in a row? Now we use it almost every game?[/quote]
Find me trolling on something you've said, and I'll be happy to comment on it. And for draft, I thought it was a good idea, and I've done it twice on my own. I stick to the end on my game, with my people, because I picked them, and I take responsiblity for what happens.
[quote name='Mookyjooky']What about breaking the team internally into Elites and Non-Elites?? I caught hell for that one….BIG TIME……So why is everyone calling the 8-10 key players Elites now?? Like “Elites should play Frag Dolls” for example……There are no Elites people….Everyone thought it was stupid….. (And “JV team” is just as bad people, come on)[/quote]
I know that there is a wide range of skill levels among the clan, and any marking of someone as "Elite" or "Non-Elite" is just smack talk. Unofficially, we all have a pretty good idea who the "better" players are among the clan. We're all here to have fun and play online with our fellow CAGs. And for the "JV team" comment, the buck stops with me, since I was the one who brought it up, as a joke. And apparently, it stuck, and continues on.
[quote name='Mookyjooky']Well here’s another “you heard it here first”…... (New guys to the clan) People aren’t paid to be Staff…they’re guys just wanting to play Halo 2 too….JUST LIKE YOU. [/quote]
No argument from me there.
[quote name='Mookyjooky']](Staff) This clan wont last at this size….you’ll get tired of walking on eggshells every time you play and you’ll break the clan down to 16-20 people at most…..it will happen, give it time….feel free to get pissed off at me on here, cause when I go online you’ll be telling me how right I was…..and besides, why do these people have to be IN the clan? Why not just add them to your friends list? These people dont have to be IN the clan to play the 800 custom games we play. The "non-elites" arent even playing clan games....at all....why are they IN the clan? Can't they just be on my friends list?
I personally think I’ve brought a lot to the table in the way of HALO 2 stuff for CAG…..but I’m not going to listen to people talk shit about the clan, (but I’ll know not to stick up for the clan here, or else my own clan will go ballistic on me) or have people in the clan complain every time someone leaves their game…..this isn’t Middle School….this is just a game, that we play online, with a bunch of people we’ve never met….
Maybe its fun for some people to hear nothing but bitching online, but for me its not….and I’m not obligated to stay in any game. Ever.[/quote]
Again, if you think that staff has to walk on eggshells, then you really need to think on what they're supposed to do.
And about how the clan is, sizewise and who plays in clan matches, that's always your opinion. As part of the clan, I always stick up for it, and if something isn't right among it, I say something. I greatly appreciate your strategy guide, as it's been quite helpful, as was the recommendation for the Unauthorized Halo 2 Battle Guide.
If I'm in a match with my clan, going good or bad, I stick with it, since there's always some good to be had in it. If I dumped out of the game, then people would be bitching about me. I wasn't bitching, just expressing my displeasure about the game ending early. Maybe I'll listen more carefully about people wanting out of the game, though unless I have control over it, there's nothing I can do about it.
