Is there any sort of skill level expected here? I've got a friend I might be able to do this with me, but he's still pretty new to this.

e: Also, I'm not that good myself, so I wouldn't wanna inflict that on a stranger.

Naw, it's cool. I myself am on the decent side but I am playing with Junpei, who's a new player. We're trying to have fun here and not scare newbies away or anything.
Since it's a league you'll play every team once. So you might end up playing a team that just obliterates you for one match, and one that's on your level the next few. Don't worry about skill.

Okay, cool. I'll see if I can't get him on board. Thanks!

People in Rainmaker, PM me to schedule games with the Mighty Mighty Beeftones. We're available after about 5 EST/GMT-5 tomorrow, and from about 1-5 Saturday and Sunday. Hopefully there'll be a bit more availability next week, but we can't be sure yet.

e: Or friend me on Steam and message me there. I'm always on at least one of the two at any given time.

Pretty sure me and Spn will be able to play today
I'll yell at you on Discord and make it official here if we sort it out

I'm not 100% sure about my teammate, but we should be available from about 5 EST/GMT-5. Maybe 6. I'll try to be on Discord around then, but I'm not exactly familiar with it just yet.

Team Calzone will likely be available tonigth, albeit a bit late due to me dealing with a client emergency. I'll need to confirm with Desaru when I'm home, but we'll probably be on and active by 11est at the latest.

That should be good, but I'm having a hard time getting in touch with my teammate right now. I'll let you know.

Beeftones got absolutely embarrassed by Eurotrash. I knew I was bad, but jesus christ. Well played, you guys.

e: Not looking forward to seeing that replay.

e2: Only remembered to screengrab the results of the second game, and, well:


Sorry to anyone who was looking to be entertained.

e3:
Oh, yeah, I guess I should've specified. Sorry!

Hold off on this one for a few minutes! My teammate isn't ready yet. Sorry! Should've been more clear in my message!

Ok cool no pressure this league will probably be relaxing, maw is pretty good and lblitzer will probably own me but other than that it will be fine.


:staredog:

This is more or less how I sold this thing to my teammate, and now I feel bad because we've lost every game by at least 4 points.

Jamfrost posted:

If you believe hard enough, your opponent will desync.

That's the time to strike!

That actually happened in our first game with Eurotrash, only after the one player got timed out, I was so confused that I let the player who was left score pretty much entirely uncontested. Not that it would've mattered against them, but still.

I uploaded Eurotrash vs. Mighty Mighty Beeftones https://youtu.be/x_7E2Okdaeg
Game 1. Game 2 was lost to the abyss due to my capture randomly stopping. Never happened before, really.

Also: I made a youtube playlist with all recorded games I am aware of https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHmMaQOVlq3b45wcMSruDJiR28x3k77CM
If I missed any feel free to let me know, so I can add them.

Cool to see just how bad I was from a 3rd person perspective, and to know that there was basically nothing I could've done within my ability to win. What sad is that it barely even looks like the other guys are trying, and they're completely owning us.

Waverly actually talked to me after this and my matches against Team Calzone, and fairly accurate guessed my level of play. This guy's too good.

Hey, Iggy. My teammate's and my works schedules don't really line up until this Thursday. Any chance we could get an extension for our other matches? We have Eat Pants with Sporks, and Gildblum's Eyes and Static left, so if any of you guys are available after 4EST this Thursday, that'd be great.

Hey, so, I got home and my room/teammate is asleep, so maybe check back in a few hours? Sorry about this. Shouldn't have tried to schedule a thing without him, I guess.

Mighty Mighty Beeftones vs Low Down Boost Friends in a matter of minutes.

boost/beef

e:
Beeftones lose to Boost Friends, 2-0



Also gonna take this opportunity to announce with a heavy heart that the Mighty Mighty Beeftones are withdrawing from the league. After a 0-3 start, and a staggering -27 goal differential across 6 games, it's become obvious we're outclassed completely here, and it's become unfun to get dunked on so hard so consistently. It's also been somewhat difficult for us to get our schedules lined up so that we can play matches in the first place. Thanks for having us, and enjoy the rest of the league.
