Battle of Vets

Jan 29, 2004 19:27 Battle of Vets
Last night I observed a great 2x2. The game was Underdog/Lancelot vs. Stimpy/Suicidjky

The results of the game are unimportant to me, but it was fun to watch. We all started talking about old 2x2s etc etc. Then I became curious what the outcome of the some of today's best players playing together. Players that never get to play together because they are the best in winbolo today.

Well, to get straight to the point is it possible for me to watch a combination of the certain players play a 2x2: Min, SJ, ud, sev, stimpy, sticks, zach, and aj|r. I know some of them are rusty, but for old times sake. This isn't a tournament or anything but just an informal gathering of winbolo's top talent. I know I'd love to watch min and sev battle ud and stimpy or any of those combos.

I guess the question now is would these players not only be willing to play, but play with each other. I dont know if there is bad blood or anything, but if there is why cant the vets set an example and let bygones be bygones.

Well maybe it happens maybe not, but it would be fun and maybe bring the community back together.

I second the motion. There are too many rifts between boloteers. Besides, it would prove interesting to see different strategies in action

If you ppl do this, be sure to tape it (using speilborg or something) and send it to BoloServ so that it can be watched by other pplz.

the only person on that list that is on my blacklist is zach ... so I see no reason why not.

wouldn't want zach to think I play anyone but newbies ...

I remember that Sticks/Sev vs. Min/UD match on chew toy 3. We won only because UD tried to do something a little ballsy when it was at a deadlock. It's his downfall, it is.

This seems like a good idea for when the logviewer is finished, I would prefer not have 12 ppl watching a 2x2.

ah yes .. I recall that battle .. what happened is UD didn't play his strength ... he decided to try and mine your backfield while leaving me to fend off you and sev in the pillwar (which he could have done) ... and his mining suxored rox .. so we lost ;) I'll have to dig that log up .. heh

[00:56] <Min> my god
[01:11] <Min> sigh
[01:12] <Min> wanna hold for 15 minutes? :P
[01:12] <*Severian> no
[01:12] <Min> I'm teasing
[01:13] <Min> welp .... I think I'm pretty much done
[01:13] <*Severian> gg man
[01:14] <Min> *sigh*
[01:14] <*Severian> well
[01:14] <Min> 2-3 bad lgm loses in a row..
[01:14] <*Severian> you aquitted yourself quite well
[01:14] <Min> I could have kept going .. but all my bases are pretty much empty
[01:15] <*Severian> uh oh
[01:16] <Min> heh
[01:16] <Min> heh
[01:17] <Min> I setup way to many easy doubles for you
[01:17] <Min> god I've lost it ... heh
[01:17] <Min> normally I don't do that
[01:18] <*Severian> best game in quite a while
[01:18] <*Severian> even despite rust man
[01:18] <Min> heh, well .. at least I made you sweat
[01:18] <Min> even if only a tiny bit
[01:18] <*Severian> indeed
[01:18] <*Severian> and i dont go in for that patronizing bullshit
[01:18] <*Severian> so im totally honest man
[01:18] <Min> heh
[01:19] <Min> well, when I say I'm rusty .. I'm not intending to insult you or anything ...
[01:19] <*Severian> no this was about what i expected
[01:19] <*Severian> and im glad you matched that
[01:20] <Min> heh
[01:20] <Min> I do get the feeling you held back on me though
[01:20] <Min> in a number of places
[01:20] <*Severian> mid game i did
[01:20] <*Severian> but wasnt on purpose
[01:20] <*Severian> i was just confused for a bit
[01:20] <Min> and I also noticed that you did a few things ... as if taunting me ..... like clumping those huge number of pills south ... hehe
[01:21] <*Severian> i had to watch where you were pushing things
[01:21] <Min> if those 2 I set down directly south were so stupidly placed
[01:21] <Min> er ... weren't
[01:21] <Min> I probably would have had a better chance
[01:21] <*Severian> yeah
[01:21] <Min> and I could have stalled you so I could rape
[01:21] <*Severian> that dbl was key for e
[01:21] <Min> that was the problem
[01:21] <Min> I couldn't leave my pills for even a second
[01:21] <*Severian> i would have just spike those bases
[01:22] <*Severian> you really resourced me tho
[01:22] <Min> so I was unable to do any flanking
[01:22] <*Severian> kept it so my only good pill position
[01:22] <*Severian> was where there were no trees
[01:22] <Min> yep ...
[01:22] <Min> hehe
[01:22] <*Severian> but i needed position anyways
[01:22] <*Severian> because i was low on pills
[01:22] <*Severian> so i had to bite the bullet
[01:22] <Min> that mine job I did west middle helped huge beginning game
[01:22] <*Severian> yup
[01:22] <Min> if I hadn't screwed it all up with some dumb lgm moves
[01:23] <*Severian> yeah
[01:23] <Min> I was just getting ready .. getting myself setup for some movement
[01:23] <*Severian> i had a few bad impulses
[01:23] <Min> and boom ... boom .... boom
[01:23] <Min> and then it was like .. ack
[01:23] <Min> lose a lgm, lose 2-3 pills
[01:23] <*Severian> mines are that way tho
[01:23] <*Severian> they are more buggy than mac bolo
[01:23] <Min> ya .. lets talk on IRC
[01:23] <*Severian> well lets continue on rc
[01:23] <Min> finish me off
[01:23] <*Severian> heheheheh
[01:23] <*Severian> yup
[01:24] <Min> gg
[01:24] <*Severian> gggggg
[01:25] <Min> Min vs severian
[01:25] <Min> severian won

Perhaps this could be arranged somewhat like IBL, without the ranking system or with, whichever the vets want. This idea probably sucks ass, but I thought I'd post it up here just in case someone gets a better idea that's built off mine.

The crack's starting to get to me, Min!

back when I started playing doing IBL style 2x2's was fairly regular ... there was very little bitching about teams becuase if the teams sucked one round, we'd just switch the teams around and go again .... also helps picking teams .. since all the combinations would at some point be played. I played a few tourney strict games a few days ago .... and when I forced people to pick teams quickly man did the bitching start .... especially onani ... but amazingly all the games that I played that day were fairly decent ........ which is surprising since I was randomly choosing teams

BEST GAME EVER is when SJ and I did a 5x2, and all was had was one base left and 4 pills around it...and the 5 put ALL their pills around our base...so SJ would run into all the pills makin all the enemy pills hit each other making some of them dead, then i would run over them and die and SJ would rebuild them...soon enough we got all the pills and won :D
