This evening at 9:30, our guild team will have their first match in the STA 5on5 League. We are currently part of what's called a "screening ladder". The purpose of this screening ladder is to ensure we can run the match according to their rules...with HLTV running and recording and a program called RingerFree connected and monitoring the server.
A match consists of two rounds...one on each team's server. Our first round is on our opponents ([aD] absolute destruction) server. The second on ours.
So...
Sometime around 10:45 eastern time, I will take down the main server and convert it for use in our match. Matches are only 35 minutes...so I hope our community will allow us to have our matches here a few times a month on Tuesday evenings. This should not be a major inconvenience.
In the future, HLTV will be provided for those wanting to watch the match on our home server. If you can't play on the server for 35 minutes...at least you can watch us compete if you wish. 
I say "in the future" because for tonight, HLTV will only be provided for the two team captains (required by STA rules) and will be password protected. I want to make sure we get through the "technical" stuff okay during our first match. Then I'd feel more confortable allowing up to 20 others to watch on HLTV. Please remember, the screening ladder is there to make sure we can pull off the match with all of STA's requirements.
Please join me in wishing the team well. I dare say if you connect to our IRC chat room (hint...hint) you can get updates on how the matches are progressing. Next week (if we're scheduled), you can watch in person. |

Our opponents never showed...we won via forfeit.
All that practice on a crappy map...oh well.
Carry on people. |

| BOO on your opponents! That's the easy way to win I guess. What does that mean as far as the screening goes? |

| That forfeit doesn't give us a win, it's like the match never happened. So basically we spent a few weeks practicing that map for nothing. |

Unfortunately, nothing... 
We're there to show the STA admins that we can conduct a match with all the requirements...we did not do that cause we couldn't. Eh.... |

Really, it doesn't have a negative affect on us. They realize it was out of our hands.
Plus, our effort to try and get a match with another clan might make them think highly of us. |

Agreed Aud...we don't look bad in their eyes. But we haven't yet proven we have what it takes ot pull of a full match either.
They said if we could pull off two rounds with -[ZM]-...they would count it for us. We just didn't have time and they didn't have enough teammates by then. That's why nope played for them.  |

| And I wouldn't have had enough patience to take a whooping like that twice. |
