Why FC is Not Fun

[Spartanbh]

100% agree with REDD's point of view on this. I understand the morale is low in BLUE and numbers have been low, but that is absolutely no excuse to forfeit a match. I don't believe forfeiting should ever have been a thought here in FC, since we play for FUN, regardless of win or lose. Maybe I'm old school in the sense that I just play to play, and while I enjoy winning much more than losing, I respect the integrity of FC too much to ever forfeit a match. We are a community focused around fun, respect, and competition. Even if it's an exhibition game, play it, it still may turn out to be a worthwhile game.

If you are scheduled to play a match, you should play it, especially if you are a community/army leader. You have a responsibility not only to your army, but the opposing army. Forfeiting a match (exhibition) because your army lost the map is a disservice to the flow of the community and the battle nights.
I hope this doesn't happen again. I don't appreciate waiting in a lobby for 1hr plus, only to hear that a blue squad forfeited the match, exhibition or not.

There is merit on both sides here. But I'm with Guzzie/SpartanBH/Blastoise/etc

You didn't get your last game because myth lowered the total game amount. Not because of BLUE or any of that jazz.

False they were scheduled as the last game after Myth lowered the total game amount...

[Relapsive]

The game they where scheduled to play was actually game 21 which was suppose to be the last match of the battle night so this has nothing to do with myth.

From what I understand, Anarchy left that match to set things up for the HC Tiebreaker. I think he said he told one of our extras to go play in his place, but that guy never joined. And then the other 3 left because they didn't have a 4th. And by the time it could've got back to us that that happened, all of BLUE HC was starting up the Tiebreaker, so I imagine that nobody was paying much attention to the many Skype chats. :P

[Anarchy]

I was getting an extra for the team so I could start up the HC match. That's not poor leadership or w/e.

That team dispersed after to my unknowing.


Just as you hate waiting, they hated playing gamebattles level teams. My answer to both in this instance is: It happens.
