C.C - TOFU vs the Legion [25-15] [Final]

[chemefreak]

you know it's funny how you're being sarcastic about this, implying that we're an insignificant rung on your climb up the ConquerCup ladder. It's funny because we're putting up a pretty close fight. It's funny because the Seeded 10 clan is giving the seeded 2 clan a real challenge.
It's funny for a lot of reasons, but none of the reasons you intended.

My advice? Go back to watching grown men pretend to fight each other and hurl embarrassing scripted slurs at one another.

Not saying it might not end up close at the end of Round 1, but maybe you could use a different benchmark than 4 or 5 games into the match up. That's like looking at the score of a basketball game about 15 seconds in to the game and declaring it a real challenge because the Slap Happy Middle School team is within 5 points of the Lakers. Or you could compare it to the first 20 feet in a marathon race.

Sure you should be thrilled you haven't fallen into some uncovered sewer, but if you need to take solace in the fact that you're competitive when the score prior to the pertinent result was 0-0 then that's just a tad bit sad.

You are right though, it is funny - just funny in the sense of we are all laughing at you. You're not providing bulletin board material, you're providing quips to hang in the office so when your eyes get blurry for work you can look at Dai_atan's latest remarks next to your Dilbert cutouts and have a good hearty, refreshing laugh.

It's nice to see trap survived his finals...rested up...and comes back to this thread with a vengeance! Dilbert cutouts? Seriously? Not your best work man.

I did survive : ) but it was touch and go.

As for the Dilbert cutouts, it's just how office life really is... It's the fax (facts) of life! Get it!?

[Blitzaholic]

good luck both sides

If you can't see the way the games are going at this stage I'd wonder how you're even in TOFU Trap.
You talk so much shit but you can't back up a word you say can you?

I think I can. I'm more than willing to do some games with you heads up if you'd like. As for how I'm in TOFU, can't really tell you - clan policy to not let individuals being considered for admission serve on the recruiting committee. I know, quite unorthodox but that's how they roll.

Quite frankly my year+ vacation from ConquerClub did myself no favors, but like I said, I'm willing to do some games with you to see if I can back up this mouth of mine that keeps spitting hot fire. At the very least, if you are able to beat me then you can use it as consolation for the abuse you all have taken in the tongue lashings.

I'm also fairly confident if I dropped out of TOFU, I could get into Legion. Most of you are hesitant to admit it, but your eyes light up when you see I've posted - I'm sure cheme's wondering what gold he missed when I was on his foe list . I bring the fun, I bring the funk, and I also bring loaded dice.

[Dako]

And his avatar proves how smart he is ;-).

[Dai_atan]

I swear I posted a reply saying there would be no chance of trap getting into legion since we vote our members in and then I said I'd take his challenge but not on doodle... where did I post it?

Honestly, I think trap would probably be a good fit. We got lots of lawyers, doctors, and other professionals in the Legion. However, sometimes trap reminds me of Snowgun (can anybody say Snowgun 2.0?)....and I'm just not sure any clan can handle two Snowguns!!! All Hail Snowy, King of the Foe Lists!

Oh, and can we hurry this war along so I can add trap back to my foe list?

I got a lovely pm from you detailing why I wouldn't be allowed into Legion, perchance that is where the post went.

[Chariot of Fire]

I agree. Can we make him the wager for this challenge?

[Knight2254]

Well I'm back from vacation now so I'll be getting into the action in the next round. Better chalk a few extra victories for Legion in whatever games I'm in.

Ah I hit PM instead of quote, my bad.

Maybe not, you're coming back from vacation as we're all headed off.

I love the passive-aggressive "[Round 2 in 5 days!]" in the header.

[jcstriker]

think we might hv to throw in the towel here. i mean there is no way the clan ranked 18th in CC can compete with the clan ranked 1st,
shit it would be the greatest upset in CC history if we were to win,
guess we cant quit now so we just gonna hv to do this thing

[Chariot of Fire]

i mean there is no way the clan ranked 18th in CC can compete with the clan ranked 1st

I think you can when fate deals us the fewest starts, the lousiest drops and the worst dice that anyone in our clan can ever recall. Kinda levels the playing field.

[Dai_atan]

pfft your bad dice are my day to day rolls.

we simply that shit being 18th ranked that u should stomp us dice or no dice, poor strategies(deploy on unaccessible regions), shit we probably colour blind (hit our own team mates) and we probably cant count too, drop dice meh, we 18th might as well be 28th, this too easy for u guys, so says the rankings

Not sure about the counting, but you sure can't write a coherent sentence. Anyway....re the rankings....I've already posted my thoughts on how I feel about them.

I've said the same thing many times.

jcstriker seems to have a very strong aversion to the verb "to be". Obviously not a Hamlet fan.

[TheSpaceCowboy]

He is obviously into the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune. . and seas of troubles. . ..but perhaps he is nobler in the mind????. . yet, conscience makes cowards of us all.

[Dai_atan]

striker is not striker.
if not illiterate when literature he finds
or types with the clarity to clarify.
O no! he is an ever fixed mark
that looks on grammar and is never shaken.

[jcstriker]

I was actually an A english student at bursary, just not the greatest typer in the world.
I can spell better than most when i want too.

[Chariot of Fire]

I was actually an A english (English) student at bursary, just not the greatest typer (typist) in the world.
I can spell better than most when i want too (to).

Now if you had omitted the 'A' before 'english' the sentence would seem a lot more credible

lighten up before I go through your every post and point out how you split infinitives and the likes.
