YOU'RE NOT THE BOSS OF ME SO PPPPBBBBTTTT!!!!

Besides. This thread is nearly pure lulz. Why on earth would I not want to egg it on?

But okay, here's the reality so I can put bhall's mind at ease.

Darkside, the team that's sending out all these scrims, has a new really for reals defensive coordinator with me just acting as some kind of advisor because I wasn't going to have time to DC two teams while completely running a third. My new title on that team is "Defensive Assistant for Snarkiness and Lulz". So, the owner and new DC, has been running a bazillion scrims against a whole variety of teams as he builds his defense, including a bazillion gillion against the Lounge where I am still the really for reals DC. And while I have been giving input, that team is running his playbooks and tactics. (which would be obvious to anyone that compared Darkside S2 defense to Darkside S3 defense, but I suspect that's also too much work for all the conspiracy theorists)

If you go look at the Lost Lounge where I'm still the really for reals DC, you'll see exactly two non-Darkside scrims, neither against teams we're ever going to play. Of those, the Ants is the only one I used for anything since the other was a team scrimming us and our bogus playbooks, hence making it worthless.

So, bottom line, I'm not beating you because Darkside run a scrimmage against you. I'm beating you because I've watched so very many other scrimmages against so very many other teams and when I look at your real games, I can then pick and choose the plays that will best counter what you really do.

Also, most of us on the Lounge/Vase Breakers/Yorick teams have never played GB at all. It's all new to us and there are a lot of new players. What you see as "spamming scrimmages" is really us just checking out a neat game and watching it happen and slightly obsessing over our new toy. And what's strange to me is, if scrimmaging is all that valuable, just make your scrimmages public. Then everyone can see what everyone else is doing/trying.

From my point of view:

Quick scrims are a great way to test out your own playbooks looking for stuff that does and does not work. They are untrustworthy, and hence useless, for trying to get a read on an opponent.

Oh, and apparently they'd be a great way to get inside an opponent's head except for the whole part where simulated players don't care if they're being coached by a guy wearing a tinfoil sailor's hat.

This is just sad that they're trying to play it off. You did what you did. It worked. Cool.

Own up to it.

We are just making a strategic decision to close up shop.

Pretending that those dark side sims weren't strategic on your part is the biggest lulz of this thread.

This GLB2 Spygate thread is hilarious.

A bunch of rank newbs run scrims against multiple teams and rather than think that these scrims were new players experimenting with tactics, testing ourseleves against good teams, or enjoying the game, the the thought is: "A conspiracy is afoot!" Plus, I'm not sure what exactly "worked." Glasgow and Direwolves beat us for our championship games. If you didn't manage to beat us, perhaps you should ask the coaches on those teams how they did it?
