Edgless Safety Cubes

As some of you have noticed, I have have removed the [ESC] tag. The reason behind this is because I do not think this team deserves to to win the season.

The team has 3 huge problems that make me question weither I am playing with a team or if I just joined some random server.

1) Sportsmanship
2) Communication
3) Teamwork

We are so rude! We constantly bash other teams and tell eachother that they are bad and etc. Normally this is fine, but it is actually getting in the way of working together to fix eachother's flaws. For isntance, the last time I heard someone on the team say that something is wrong is was when Scrub was getting angry at the team. This is not acceptable.

When we lose, we either begin to get angry and blame everyone around us, or we start talking bad about the team/game. Both of these are bad and will bring down overall morale and make people feel like ♥♥♥♥. If there is a problem, such as the team not capitalizing on play that a team member made, then address it in a productive way. Going and getting mad at everyone or angry with the game will only cause the team to do worse. You are only helping the problem grow.

We don't listen to eachother unless someon gets mad. This is proven in virtually every single game we have done. But it shows the biggest on process. No one showed up for the map review. We did 2 terrible scrims, and on the third one Scrub finally got angry and everyone listened. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. If you are not going to listen, then go play on a PUB where you can solo to your hearts content.

Calling is something that we lack. I do know that I suck at calling, and I need to get better at that. But outside of me, so much is not being called. The team needs to know the uber% of the enemy, that is the spy and medic's job. We need to know the location of the spy and medic, and where the sniper is watching. We have been getting better at calling as we have been playing, and I am glad. But it still needs work.

We don't follow up when plays are made. If someone on our team manages make a great move we need to capitalize on it. Our process game shows this perfectly. We did trash that game. When the medic, heavy, or demoman was downed, whe rarely pushed them. Only once did we start a round and push fairly well, until 3rd-last point where we got disorganized and died, causing us to not push in mass for the rest of the round.

I am not a ♥♥♥♥, so I will not leave you guys forcing you to drop out of the season. I will stay and play this out. But depending on how we do with the rest of our practices and games, I may leave after the season or stay.

If you have any problems, word, or feelings about anything I said here. Go ahead and state it here or in private or behind my back. I don't care. I will answer everything thrown at me.

TL;DR
Go back up and read all of what I said. There is no TL;DR.




Also since we had no scrim yesterday, please everyone try your hardest this next game!
