Crit Rocket! - Tournament Extravaganza - First Practice Match
Saturday, February 2nd, 2008 - 3:23pm
Like those other teams, we to need an awe-inspiring name, something to put fear into the hearts of our opponents. Or perhaps something just generally awesome, it's all good.
The roster:
Atlas
CEJ
Datyedyeguy (Datin)
Elliottx
Jadawin
Oso
Redhwk
SamF7
Tannhauser (Team Captain/Hitler)
Tempest Blayze
Thirteenth
Tobyus


I'm stuck on the nihilst thread over in Everything Else, so the best I've got is:
It's a League Game!
or
at least it's an ethos!

Rebel have got enough team names to narrow it down to 3 or 4 and then we could vote on them?
I suppose so, though I was hoping for some suggestions that weren't so personally referential. Well, here are the ones I like best (aside from "The Replicants" which might be a bit obscure):
Crit Rocket!
Rebel Yell (one of my favorite legal Fourth of July fireworks when I was younger, been on the roller coaster as well)
Rebels' Twelve
Tannhauser Terrors
I'm happy with any of those, although if I'm allowed to make a minor edit at this point, "Rebel Yelp" would be my favorite, I guess I'm just that kind of self-depreciating smart arse.
My least favorite is Tannhauser Terrors, but I could live with it.
Crit Rocket! and Rebel's Twelve would both be fun.

We're rather stacked with people who are talented with the soldier, so Crit Rocket! works well for us.

Im going to have to vote for my own. So Rebel's Twelve
Attention all TF2 teams. You have 24 hours to get organized and then I'll be locking down the individual team threads. Use this one for scheduling and general banter.
Before you ask, we will not make a special sub-forum.
I heard that they were keeping Elysium in the ICU not because he needed intensive care, but because they needed to be careful of his intensity. - Wordsmythe
It looks like Crit Rocket! by a landslide, Rebel's Twelve being second.
By the way Tannhauser, I was wondering if you had any specific classes you were thinking people should play. Since we're very loaded with talented soldiers I'm figuring you went into the draft with the idea of drafting "Best player available regardless of position."
XBL: elliottxW
Steam: Elliottx
This is the tentative list, please add your comments on classes if you have any. One thing to note is not to be tied to a specific class too heavily, everyone has to have a bit of flexibility to deal with the fluctuating circumstances of a match.While we do have some great engineers on our team, they also mostly happen to be great offensive players as well, so that is a balancing act we will have to take into account. Also we don't have any dedicated demomen, who are essential on some maps. The good news is we are an offensive powerhouse, and we have a great core of medics to back that up.
Atlas - Soldier/Heavy/Engineer
CEJ - Soldier/Demoman, Backup Engineer
Datyedyeguy - Anything
Elliottx - Scout/Soldier, Backup Medic
Jadawin - Scout/Heavy, Backup Engineer/Medic
Oso - Medic
SamF7 - Medic
Tannhauser - Any offensive class/Engineer, Backup Medic
TempestBlayze - Sniper, Otherwise ?
Thirteenth - Spy, otherwise ?
Tobyus - Scout/Soldier, Backup Engineer/Sniper
Another thing I'd like to try to establish is what time/days of the week are avaliable for everyone on the team, so we can get started on setting up scrims. Hopefully we can get that information mostly in before the thread is locked, and everything turns into a mess on the scrim thread.
Friday's are 50/50 with me alot of times just depends on what the wife has planned. Sunday nights seem to be pretty good. Saturdays are out. Mon-Wed are open and after 10:00 on Thursdays.
Aww, but WHY!!
It looks like no one else on the team is tied to the Spy, so I'll probably be the go-to guy if any Spy stuff needs to be done.
There will be time when Spies are next to useless, as I found out. Luckily, I feel pretty comfortable with all classes other than Sniper. Did well with Medic, Heavy, Soldier, Pyro, Scout, and Engineer. By comfortable, I mean placing top 3 in at least one game. So tell me what to play and I'll play it.
"Alas, this Court's kingdom for a commercial airport! "
Well I don't always think there is a time for Sniper I know I can do a lot with it. I play all the other classes very very well accept for Demo and medic.
I guess you can make me Sniper and Engi since they are my best by far. Backup Spy and Soldier

It is going to be hard for me to find time, but I can do it. Marking off a couple of nights in advance will help. I'm West coast as well.
Wednesdays are a no go for me, other nights should work, as long as I can schedule them in advance.
