As you recall, Vanquish fielded several 10 man defenses that night and had success on their own. I don't think they would glitch intentionally to lose a hex that either Vanquish or Digital Syn would take right back. I'll chalk it up to BOTH Forge and Vanquish had bugs in their game and were used unintentionally. Believe me it was frustrating to lose that D facility due to a glitch when it was protecting your Tech II Factory and Lab. s*** happens. Lets move on.

Lets move on. 5 different times, FireWater, in succession, on their territory, during the startup phase, where the bug and it's execution is common knowledge. (You had to pick up the platform multiple times) We had almost no gear, except for beacons and a Vandal. That time of the Tech II lab was an accident. I was actually using the Rocket Platform to help defend. I was under the assumption that the bug was only with the gauss platforms and after that fight, we just stopped bringing platforms all together. As you can see, we lost hexes. It's not a big deal to us. We could've exploited and kept them, but we're better than that. camaro406ss wrote: That is completely false, we had 12 people on last night and sent 2 people to defend a hex against one of your strikeforces.

AND another game on a defense hex, when we were about to get distro and had your vandal 2 or 3 near death you guys called for a crash. Too bad your guys weren't quick enough to save the vandal, we killed it 1 second before you crashed it. Unlike you guys we look forward to the rest of this weeks matches, good luck, you'll need it. It was one match against DigitalSyn that crashed, and that was due to me not knowing the bug was with rocket platforms as well. As I said before, I was under the assumption it was just Gauss. Any matches that "crashed" on the defense grid were clearly your guy's fault because we stopped bringing platforms. Also, oh noes a vandal whatever will we do /craft _________________ Last edited by Hako on Tue Jul 27, 2010 3:06 pm, edited 1 time in total.

Nether f which have the map pool or game type pool of merc.

The team queue needs to offer the same level of features as the solo/duo queue. Personally I don't care if it's a second merc queue or an improved arena queue, although there are some who seem to think it's name is the most important thing about it.
