{[_]} over GOM
+G.O.M.+, grumpy old men, a favorite movie of mine in fact. i knew this was going to be a fun match because i mean cmon, everyone knows that it doesnt get any more fun than 10 grumpy old men with projectile weaponry trying to shoot at you. before the match we tried to get a mapchange but gom seem uniterested, which turned out to be a good thing in the end. we here at the bucket clan tend to look at cap point maps with a certain... well i dont know how to put this.... we suck at them. we tend to overstrategize cp maps, but this time was different. chuddy (a clever mix of chad and huddy, har) told us that if any non runner died with a grenade of any type, that he or she failed. at first i thought failed? oh ok but then the harsh reality struck. i was told that to fail meant certain disaster, or in other words, a 5 minute shower with chuddy. now, as if that were not incentive enough, a winning steak was on the line here... not just any winning streak mind you, a 4 GAME WINNING STREAK PEOPLE. thought to be myth by those in the community, a bucket 4 game winning streak was in sight and we had no intention of giving it all up to a bunch of grumpy old men. prematch start.
prematch: people are running around with crowbars. if you expect me to waste my time explaining what happened in prematch, well, dont give up your day job. right before pm ends, i get a knot in my stomach. i think i was hungry but thats all water under the bridge now. i began focusing outward on the task at hand.... all cap... round begin
fucking chuddy was supposed to be a runner, but do you think he did? you probably didnt even honor that question with an answer. good man i say. anyway, we tried and tried and tried to get the allcap but it just wasnt going to happen this round. all i remember were mirvs at the fountain. the round ends in favor of {[_]} by a score of 251-148.
breaktime: well, were all excited because we might win a cp map, but then im reminded how we like to blow big leads, so i quietly shut the fuck up and awaited the next round....
***THIS JUST IN, STEAM IS A SHIT-COCK, THAT IS ALL***
round 2 was delayed until a week later for reasons that everyone should already know. anyway, round 2 begin
round 2: remember the task we had for round 1? well, we carried that over to round 2 and actually succeeded, a bucket clan record 3 times. more mirv spam, etc, blah blah. round ends in favor of buckets again this time with a score of 346-104. i would like to extend a heart felt thank you to the players at gom for a clean and enjoyable match. good luck in the future and cant wait to play you guys again.
