nLv over (_*_)

After a nice string of horrible, degrading losses in Silver, nLv finally got moved back down to Bronze - whom we all missed so much.

As has been the case over the last few matches, I tried and tried and tried to find someone to exchange server info with at 9:00 EST, but to no avail. Soon 9:35 rolled around and still nothing. FINALLY, with 5 minutes to spare, AMP makes his triumphant return.

Round 1 | nLv: blue, (_*_): red
-------
Everyone goes into browneye's server. Nothing is organized, everyone is wondering wtf we're supposed to be doing. Everyone (with the exception of a few) hates darkness, and was hoping browneye would just forfeit so they wouldn't have to play. Alas... they didn't, and things got started.

It was a rather uneventful round, peppered with nLv relays and flag holds. We start off strong and the pace never really lets up throughout the remainder of the round. All of us (except chicken, cuz he's poultry) pull a few coast to coasts. Browneye seems to have the right setup on D, but something just doesn't click for them this round.

On our side of the farm, whore and Sid are doing their worst in the yard, stealing our O's caps because our O doesn't know how to conc to the bments. Sid cries a lot, but none of us love him, so his cries go unnoticed.

Browneye pulls their fair share of flags, but most get returned relatively quickly, with a few hard-fought ones getting out.

Somewhere along the line, someone says "lol" to which browneye replies "mm1." Thus, the mm1 tensions continue to escalate, as friendly banter takes a dangerous turn towards childish insults [on both sides]. Nothing too terrible, so I won't cry about it too much.

Other than the mm1 fight, it was clean round. Browneye hung in there and just didn't click for one reason or another.

nLv takes the round.

Rd1 Offense: me, metallix, fury, chicken
Rd1 Defense: sid, sponge, sin, sub, whore
Rd1 Score: 38-6 nLv!

Round 2 | nLv: red, (_*_): blue
-------
Not knowing what to expect for rd2, we decided to throw caution to the wind and switch things up a bit, hoping that browneye didn't have an ace up its sleeve.

I get moved to yard HW, sid takes whore's spot in the FR, sub is, once again, stuck on D both rounds and sin sticks with the engy spot.

Thanks to the convenient lack of prematch, I have to alt+tab out once the map restarts and get HLTV set up and recording. By the time I get back, the doors have already opened. I get to our door and start firing JUST as browneye gets theirs open. Soon enough ours comes down too and the round gets underway.

With a new and not very improved offense, we are still pulling a few out. Browneye catches our new D off guard and pulls out a quick one that they take home. Soon their offense slows to a trickle and we start seeing pyro deaths being tallied up on the death reports. We decide "Yep, that's the signal," and send fury to snipe.

Sub is awesome and continues to make me look like a somewhat competent, ableit horrendously terrible, yard HW. Sid gloats nonstop about his D sol. Not actually seeing any of his kills, I'm forced to assume that he still sucks as much as he always has.

Browneye counters with their own Sniper and he and Fury battle it out for a while. Sin and I get bored since we don't see any offense at all and decide to start making O runs. I make it to Browneye's base once and they get a touch on our flag, thus ending my fun. I return to D.

They pull a few out behind our backs, and amidst the spam are able to take them all the way home - for some reason, capping a few on the middle cap :X

About 10 minutes in we realize that...
a.) they have 2 HW Guys
b.) they have a spectator

Upon asking that their spectator leave and cr_hwguy be fixed, some happy fellow named Sandro decides to make his opinions well known, and quits. Orange comes in for him, but [I wasn't really paying attention] eventually they go back down to 7 players for the last 10 minutes or so, everyone either playing D or just goofing around (occasionlly AMP and I battled it out in nLv's yard. He won 99% of the time, and even dominated our FR for a good minute or two). nLv takes this round as well.

Rd2 Offense: metallix, sponge, funk, chicken
Rd2 Defense: me, sid, sub, sin, fury (sniper)
Rd2 Score: 28-6 nLv!

Final
-----
We came into this match pretty apprehensive, not really knowing what to expect of browneye, who we played last a good while ago. Kids will be kids, so whatever was said and done - we can attribute to that.

I'd sit here bitching about rd2, but the truth is, I had a blast. I never get to HW (for obvious reasons), so it was a nice change.

The highlight of the match:
Round 2 about 20 minutes in, Browneye has a player named "ETF > TFC" [in IRC he was threesix - I don't know his real alias] who was piping their spawn. They took it upon themselves to vote_kick him and... it succeeded. Everyone got a good laugh as Browneye possibly made TFC history with the first vote_kick during a match.

Sponge also got voted out right as the round ended.

Final Score: 66-12 nLv!

Note: It's been quite some time since I've had the opportunity to do a writeup for STA. Since my last few writeups, I have bitched and moaned in the STA Capt's Forum to have this form fixed so it would stop butchering my writeups. Something tells me it's wishful thinking, but... HERE GOES.
