You're right. I should have named the thread "Dear Alex Kirk" because, as always, everything is his fault. I apologize, TPG.

Oh, I know. It just made me realize that Alex Kirk is to blame. It had nothing to do with your point.

What division is Jules in? That's the only thing I care about. I don't want to play against him ever again. He is either Dustin Young cheating now, or was touched by the Grace of God to be the best DOD player the world has ever seen.

I do agree that its not the end of the world to have an odd number of teams in a division. SuaP is on the upper end of the skill level of main (no thanks to me), but would get wrecked in invite. I think 3h is in the same boat.

3h is bad, suap is better. What's wrong about voicing frustration about their legitimate skill level and placement. If im not mistaken this game is about having fun, not getting rolled every week so that there can be an even amount of teams in a division. Is there anything inherently wrong with an odd number of teams in a division? I think it's better to not play 1 match a season than a team just dying because it isn't fun getting destroyed every week. Cal did this all the time and it worked fine, and it allowed for make-up matches to actually be held in the last week (P.S.unlike some brilliant decisions by tpg to not let anyone makeup matches because they didn't have ffs, yet still taking the week off)(P.P.S. avoiding teams not playing every week with even numbered divisions effectively made every team not play for a week.)

3h complained to themselves about being in invite because they knew they didn't belong, but only made a few comments publicly. Again, why do you care if they voice their frustration in a very minor way? Leave them in main, it's not like they steam rolled main last 2 seasons. And if you really need your even divisions move up Suap, they wrecked 3h yesterday.

dear kevin "mogers" edmunds and whoever who might be interested, please check below:

Spoiler: show

personally i'm sorry that this has happened again. during last seasons i tried to build and keep teams (invite teams lolol) to keep playing not only because i like to pretend i'm not a shitty rifle (being an retired counter-strike player that attended wcg, eswc, cpl qualifiers, i still love competitiveness) but we would have one more team and therefore i'd help not having teams like 3h, mvpz (last season) or even suap sandbaggers being moved up to a division they don't seem to belong. before going on, on a random side note, your post is god damn epic. it has everything a good read post need to have, even boob gifs. i'd rep train you if i could.

your and 3h's general complain about being moved up and down is a 100% legitimate and i guess it really sucks to be always moved up and down since like 2-3 seasons ago when 3h reformed but you should understand that these decisions needs to be done in order to keep the league stable. i really hope 3h carry on playing and though i can't answer on behalf tpg about this matter i don't see your team moved up and down again anymore through the season (personal opinion). this time around, with 6 teams dying and half of them for stupid actions made by their very players, for the sake of a skill-wise balanced 4 divisions format stability we needed to do that because like trevor said, you guys are halfway invite and main, slightly more invite in my opinion as well.

from what i get not only reading this thread but old pred/random threads is that though you're also saying that it's a misguided idea since your argument is that all the complains and statements about how bad you guys are might have been 1911's jokes i believe you may be acquainted to the proverb "when a thing is funny, search it carefully for a hidden truth" right? you have to agree that even though you guys may not have seriously said that you wanted your team moved down thats how most of the community feel towards 3h situation. me and the rest of the tpg admins feel the same. i'm not saying it's not the truth, but it's how pretty much everyone who isn't from 3h feel.

yours truly,

|3h|officialringer (guess i'm fired)

Spoiler: show

For those of you that are following the thread (lolwhat?):

Swiss wrote:kevin, there definitely were a whole series of posts about where 3h was placed, should be placed, will be placed, wants to be placed......etc. it went on for a while.

As I've said before, I don't remember anyone on our team saying they actually wanted to play in main and been serious about it. I'M NOT SAYING IT DIDN'T HAPPEN! It's just, from the many times I've been in vent with the team, I have only heard two things brought up time and time again. Nobody wants to get moved around, and nobody wants to scrim dgf. When we were placed in invite at the end of last season (obviously), nobody started any "master schemes" to get moved down. We played both matches, same as usual, and had no say about being moved down, having our time wasted by having to play KS, and then moved up the next week.

talking about how terrible you guys are is still saying the same thing: that you should not be in invite, skill-wise. and its not just been the sarcastic "look at this game, we're terrible, how are we in invite?!?"

We talk about how bad we are all the time, and it's never a plea to get the admins to notice where we want to play. Have you seen us play? There is less teamwork than I've seen in most 12mans. I understand, looking at the roster, it makes sense to put those players in invite (not bragging about anyone on the team; just stating a fact). But how well we play, individually versus on a team, are both pretty poor!

this isn't the first time i've heard this brought up about your team. and these threads have an influence on the admins trying to find the best place for you guys.

Oh please. The admins don't care what we say on these forums. Isn't that what they are for?! I'm pretty sure they've also said it's not about us as a team, trying to be fit in the right place; it's about evening out the divisions.

ive always felt that your team has been on the border between the two divisions (and i would say even more on the invite side but chuck could also be right). you may not feel that way but when you look at the teams, thats where you guys are. im guessing that moving you guys down after your loss fit well enough with the number of teams in invite at the time AND gave you guys what you wanted. when a team dies in invite and they need a team to fill the gap, you shouldn't be surprised to be moved when its this early in the season.

The thing is, that's NOT what we wanted. We would have been perfectly content to play in invite all season. We understand that we should be in there, we won the division below it last season. It's stupid to put us in main. But we placed 2nd the season before and they threw us back down after two weeks, so anything goes. Honestly, they should have just left us in invite and given a team a BYE, because it was only a matter of time before some team died, anyway. With the uneven amount of teams in main, they could have just moved KS earlier, dodging that problem. The team has like 30 people on the roster and can only field 3 TWO days in a row. Just let them play in their division or die.

granted, getting moved around all the time is shitty. but whether you meant it or not, this thread says: "fine, w/e, leave us here even though we shouldn't be here"

The thread starts off "Please leave us in one fucking division." How does that say we shouldn't be in one division over the other?

This turned out a much longer post than I anticipated. I'll end it with something short: You made a lot of good points, but they are all under the assumption we care about where we play. We don't. We just want to have a season of win/losses that adds up to 8. I would also like a season without Matt declaring we are dead. Why can't you help me out on one of those things, TPG?! Easy requests.

by **mexicant** » Thu May 31, 2012 6:22 am

If you win main you get moved up. I remember being excited to get moved to invite when I was on trademark.

If it's sarcastic, is it really a complaint? And yeah, we'd rather play in main because we're pretty bad and feel the matches there are much more enjoyable. Isn't anything more fun when you're playing at your level? If I had more than 3 weeks left in this game and our team actually wanted to get better, I'd be all for putting the time in to compete in invite. Instead, we try to scrim and get shit on time after time.

If teams would stay alive we wouldn't have this problem

I understand that. But what can you do? That's the way it always is. The only way you will make a set of stable divisions, which require no move-ups or downs, is to collapse one of the four and turn TPG back into a three-tiered league. But, of course, you will have more people arguing with you here then me if you do that! I'm kind of a push over.

I can call it like it is, which happens to be sarcasm! I don't know where Matt's comment was, so I will ignore that. I posted mine in the predictions after losing to dgf by 400 points. They moved us down after losing one match last season, too. Thus, the laughs were had. And who are you speaking for when you say "we all"? As far as I know, nobody has stated they favor playing in any division, so how would you know what we prefer when someone on the team doesn't? Of course we'd rather play in main against people OUR OWN SKILL LEVEL. It is definitely more fun. And, to have it on the record, we only won one season. Not two.

Going to leave this here again, so it's clear:
