A weak team like yours who didn't even get through the first round of the playoffs, will not win anything.
I think you rather end up fighting hard to even get into playoffs.
No matter what, i'm looking forward to an entire season of ridiculing the Paladins for their last season.

And will be interesting to see how the fightting irish and the other teams do this year.


Though I take this thread as a joke and not seriously at all, I can't help but single out your post. Ok 6th place, how do you come off talking about a 3rd place team? You talk about play offs, your lucky you even made the play offs. Sixth place, I think as a GM, you should worry about your team making the play offs this upcoming season than "ridiculing" a 3rd place team. Yeah we lost in the first round but I believe someone else did too. Get back to me when your team wins 10 games.

As for this upcoming season, I would like to wish you all good luck. It was fun last season Zeta, I have nothing but respect for all you guys and your teams. Can't wait for the season to start.




ermmm sorry which GM needs to worry about which team getting to the playoffs the 3-0-0 or the 1-2-0 im sure Asmodan like the rest of the BSR GM's is on the ball

All good guys. We lost and we're struggling right now. Keep in mind though that we were in the same situation last season and we went on a 9 game winning streak. Not saying that will happen again but you never know. If you want to bash a team for struggling, go right ahead, just keep in mind that you guys are starting to sound like the team you guys love to hate (which is us). Good luck to you and remember, the season is a marathon, not a sprint.

do i think BSR are the top team in alpha? i think they are one of the top 4. does that mean i dont care about them? no. i like the guys on this team.

modesty goes a long way, and for the record, actions speak louder than words


Disrespect is to call a team weak, not to think or say we're gonna beat another team.

I think we're coming up against a cultural divide hear. My feeling is that, in England at least, it's considered the wrong thing to do to call yourselves good, and to boast too much. But since you talk about your own shortcomings it's fine to do it for others too. In America it's more or less exactly the opposite as far as I can tell, saying your good is accepted, and saying others is bad is not.

Of course, maybe you're not American and this is a moot point.

Do I think your team sucks? No, I think it's too early to tell.
Do I think you have a bad record? So far, yes.
Do I think the Runners are awesome? Yes, but more as a place to play ball than a top team.
Do I think we have a great record? Yes, so far we have kicked serious ass. But I can't help but feel we have been somewhat flattered by opponents.

Btw, I'm Brave Sir Robin, OC for the Runners. Hi.

Hello Brave Sir Robin, I believe we finally have an agreement. The only thing is if we don't keep this going between your other GMS and King and I, the board will kinda get boring. I think my team is good and at the same time I feel we could beat any team in Alpha or in Zeta but I think that all the teams in both conferences are good.

I think there are a lot of great teams. I wouldn't say all of them.

The team I hate most is the Spaniard Warriors. One of them stole my name!!!

I hope the Runners do meet the Paladins at some point down the line. Just so I can sit back and watch the carnage between all you guys..

and we wouldnt be ripping on you if king henrik hadnt made unsubstantiated claims

i think in britain its the norm to be more modest, because if you cant back up your smack talk, everyone just thinks youre deluded

but then again, we have a potato for prime minister so what do we know?

I agree that in person someone should not boast and should be modest, but in a mmorpg football game i see no problem with it. Its a way to get teams interacting and the league forums moving as Jutter mentioned.

Yes yes I wish myself and my team were able to back up my comments thus far, but I think that the problem is in our gameplanning and our worthy opponents, not the structure of our team. I have complete confidence in my team finishing well and putting up a fight in the playoffs. we're only 3 games deep.

As a lover of banter my basic position is - the Paladins want to keep it lively which is great and in return the Runners have taken up their challenge and now we've got some banter going despite us probably never playing each other. That's all good and so long as we all just know our roles and give and take stick then great.

Also curse those Spaniards and their name stealing oh and Frankfurt for being really good.

This thread was actually mistakenly posted earlier and was supposed to be a prediction for Season 5. Get ready to get your asses kicked!

Its called sarcasm, saying one thing when the truth is the opposite.......

And boasting is as bad as insulting and makes you a bad winner, while boasting without backing it up, makes you just an annoying bad loser.
I don't like neither types as the most important thing is to have fun, which i feel 31 teams in our league has understood.


let me get this straight asmo.......you are giving lectures on sportsmanship? you!?! really?

I doubt anyone would think you to be anything but a moron, when you try to ruin yet another thread, by giving insults for something discussed 3 months ago.

I merely asked a question. You immediately go to insults and name calling ASSmo? the question would only be insulting to someone who knows that the implication the question made was, in point of fact, true. I'm not "ruining" anything, you already came out with a bug up your keister. insulting people, running your mouth, butchering the English language and then trying to somehow justify your piss poor behavior. Tell you what Douchemodan back off the caffeine, go out and get yourself laid or rub one out. whatever you need to do to release the pressure because you seem a little tightly wound right about now.
