with regards to Lola’s question at the end as to what is necessary for the competitive community to grow etc, I would have to say that its dedication. We need new teams that are determined to make something of themselves, that are prepared to take the inevitable losses that come with starting out and learn from them to improve. Although my time with the community is a short 9 months, I have seen a large number of teams form and break, new players and teams joining, some coming from the pub scenes thinking they are the shit, and then after their first few loses rage at each other and fall apart. Another aspect of the dedication is for eg: the week plus tourney, where the minute we hear that we can play our games during the week, no body bothers with getting them done on the weekend. (i do understand where it is because your team really cannot play, but lets be honest, that is rarely the case.), it was the same lack of dedication that caused the V3 leagues to close. Attitude fixes for some of the players would help as well, but hey what do i know. That my 2c at least…let the flaming begin, I was asked to provide my answer to the question and now I did.

Great read as usual Lola 😀

Would be great to build up the community like COD4 (numbers and popularity), hope they put in the time and effort like the players in COD4 do. They have no excuse now, TF2 is free!!!!!111! 🙂

Hey Lola I see you like the hot topics ‘eSports as a sport’ and ‘MSSA’ 🙂 Good stuff.

MSSA will never go away and the only way to make changes on it it’s to be part of it even if it looks like a mission to get a mutual agreement between several clubs to make things happen ;).

In reply to FiSH. Well it might get better with so many new players but still the majority are casual gamers but slowly some will give it a shot at 6v6.

Good read. Lets hope we can build our TF Comm again, without the usual retards trying to bring it down.
