dude sorrow i know what you mean, I was mg'ing for itf for years instead of moving around, and i don't regret a thing because imo it's the people you play with and the fun you have with them, not the "I was cal-i and placed 20th in cpl" (I'm not going to kid any one, I wouldn't have done much better than that.) =]]
I would rather be run of the mill cal-m with friends than competing my ass off and not having fun and raging to be in cal-i. Competition is fun, but having fun with friends is what gaming is about imo. some people have fun competing at the highest level of course, that just wasn't me.
watching some old footage of myself, and I realize that there was a point in my gaming time that I felt like my recoil control for the heavies was rediculous, like standing full clips across merderet and not missing... story sums up to if I could have done anything besides mg it would have been heavy.
we had a few guys on itf that tried the "lets jump ship to play cal-i" like kami that went to skull, and shaken that went to thunder, and russian who went to gimp but eventually went to source and was one of the better snipers in that game. we also had volume who went to pineriders, but I don't know how far up in cal they got..
I think what happens when you're an amazing rifle or heavy in im/m you sometimes get the shaft when you move in to invite and get tossed onto 3rd rifle running boxcar every match.
have you talked to ponti at all? you wouldn't happen to remember drunkskunk? that guy was pretty hilarious.
