Edit: I was also in a loaded IC I see you managed to get your bot logged in long enough to talk on fedcom. More than you've accomplished in a tournament in about a decade. For the record, to use hammer's colorful language, when we wiped our asses with most of your team in the last tournament, we did not post on here saying as much because we actually had the class not to. And that game lasted all of 7 fracking hours. We have not quit, are not quitting, and will see you in 26 days to tally up the final score. Your "bulletproof" grid that consists of about 1/5 of the universe had better get improved before then, and if you stop watching the game 24x7 like you have been anytime between now and then, we will be fully back and running.

Hey Sultan, pro tip: most of us don't brag about killing two people who are afk sitting on a port in starter ships with 100 figs, and get found only because one of their teammates screws up and hits a fig next door and leads you right to them. I know it's a big deal to you, but maybe act like you've been there before. I only brag about killing people who are able to fight back.

sk Hammer's msg and the other ones she took screenshots of were private channel msgs not meant for outside the team and we don't hold them against Hammer or anyone else. It was Cruncher's call to post them in a public forum and if I were her teammates I'd be looking at her the same way we are right now. In fact, if any of us posted private comms like that in a public forum, it would probably be the last time they do it on this team.

So poor taste but true to life. So really, I'll take responsibility, and if SK wants to knock me out of the game for a bit so be it. p.s. Bey's ship name was also meant to be funny.. you know teh guy, he doesnt' stop cracking jokes!!!

My main annoyance came from the fact that it was posted here. and the fact the it was rubbing it in a a bit. Like I said if you really felt the need to do, so the smack talk thread would be the place to do it. sk

I thought you might see the irony in ME killing YOU in a big tournament like this. I also thought I might be able to throw you off your game and have you focus on me instead of your game plan. Finally, I thought it was unacceptable that you sent me a message saying “f*** you a**hole” on ICQ after it happened. It was not meant to offend. You know that’s not what I’m about. My apologies anyway. PS: you were actually n a Corporate Flagship with about 6k figs. Just saying.

Sorry Sk, I did a screen cap without the quote, but my crop mates were telling me to cap the quote as well. It was all in good fun to capture that moment in a game after a well executed plan. It was my decision to post it here, probably should have posted this in the smack forum. Shadow - you have taunted too many players in games not to suffer the consequences. You broke TW rule #1 "Don't poke the bear!" SK not only haven't you posted daily logs of this big game, you've not posted kills either. Shadow's team has "0" kills.. nada! However they have suffered multiple deaths. We have a few CBY's to correct alignment, one death by nav haz, in case anyone not in the game was wondering since there's been a lack of updates. Here's a snippet from today's logs: Mind Dagger DESTROYED Tanball's T'Khasi Orion! mad DESTROYED Tanball's *** Escape Pod ***! mad DESTROYED the Star Port in sector 13130! mad DESTROYED the Star Port in sector 12829! mad DESTROYED the Star Port in sector 5025! mad DESTROYED the Star Port in sector 10822! hammer was attacked by Star Port Stargate Alpha I! hammer was attacked by Star Port Stargate Alpha I! hammer was attacked by Star Port Stargate Alpha I! hammer was attacked by Star Port Stargate Alpha I! hammer was attacked by Star Port Stargate Alpha I! hammer was attacked by Star Port Stargate Alpha I! hammer DESTROYED the Star Port in sector 17956! mad DESTROYED the Star Port in sector 3! mad DESTROYED the Star Port in sector 10! mad DESTROYED the Star Port in sector 14057!

What bear? Certainly not you. Nobody in this game, not a single person, is afraid of you, or respects you for that matter.

Neither SK nor micro posted a daily log from either of the last two tournaments either, but you were too busy losing those to notice. Cruncher wrote: Here's a snippet from today's logs:

Oh wow, you killed one of our players in a basic ship who was offline and got booted from dock because his internet connection went down and he was offline at extern, sleeping, so he could make it to work early the next morning. Bravo. One handed clap, even! The entire tradewars community shinks in fear at the power of your awesome team. Cruncher wrote: hammer was attacked by Star Port Stargate Alpha I! hammer DESTROYED the Star Port in sector 17956!
And you decided to blow stardock! Which one of your own teammates admitted last night was a stupid idea! Thanks for that, though. Keep trying to make it easy for us to get back in this game. We appreciate it. Cruncher wrote: mad DESTROYED the Star Port in sector 3! mad DESTROYED the Star Port in sector 10! mad DESTROYED the Star Port in sector 14057! And MaD Sk1llz, as I believe he normally calls himself, blew a few random ports because.... well nobody really knows why, as is usually the case with anything he does. We are all stunned at your collective mastery of the game. Meanwhile, we have two more of our players back in while you were busy doing all this, who we managed to get fedsafe and who are now gridding out your "iron clad fig wall" or whatever you idiots called it.

They only reason I have posted kills in the past was because they where part of the points system. While they are technically are here as well, with only two corps there is no way it will come into play. Plus I have been busy with a lot of outside projects. I think EVERYONE in the game and out who would have any interest knows how that game is going. Again the ONLY reason you posted it was to rub it in. Which is fine for Smack talk but not here. All it did was derail the tread and cause Shadow to have to respond(for which I don't blame him) and down into the sewer we go.

sk I honestly don't recall, I thought you or any tournament host routinely posted daily logs. I could care less who's smacking whom. Then I looked back at the rules of this game, there isn't a death limit so no need to post deaths I suppose, since no one is going to be eliminated that way.
