Time for another update.

Well it has been a long time since my last update so here goes...

After trialing for a bunch of teams (most of which didn't cut it) I finally found myself a loving home.

Continuity seemed to have everything I was looking for in a team :

1. Stability (They have been around since season 7 and everyone get on with each other ...kinda)

2. Defiantly playing in Div4. After improving a great deal since I was cut from Good at last I needed to show them I was capable of playing div4 and this team looked like it would give me what I needed.

3. Awesome players. I have met some really nice guys who are really amazing at TF2.

We began training very regularly each night and entered the Wireplay tf2 season 8 and ETF2L season 9



we won our wireplay division and came 2nd in the overall playoffs. Which is really good :D. People began to notice us a little after this as we were beating teams that I had lost too before in previous teams. It was a amazing feeling of progression.

I also attended my first ever lan I42. It was amazing getting to meet some of the guys I've been speaking to for ages in the flesh. Getting to meet the Fleshlight guys who helped me out so much was really awesome. Looking forward to attending I43 with Continuity in August






However our ETF2L season 9 was not as successful as we would have hoped



We had the closest division out of all of div4. At the end we had the final between 2stronk. With our loss we ended up in 4th place just outside a medal position. This is disappointing however for us to do as well as we did in this season surprised us. Before the season we lost our pocket soldier due to exams and had to shuffle the roster around. That being said if we would have won that match we would have come first :D

This being said we have just finished a almost 3 week break from TF2 with our team mates enjoying the summer sun :)
A much needed break from TF2 to look back and asses our mistakes is invaluable.

My next step is to improve my fundamentals of the medic class and keep up with maincalling even though i am not the maincaller for Continuity after switching with our demoman. I don't feel how I felt after my first season of ETF2L. Being in a stable team environment means I am looking nowhere but up.

So here is looking forward to see were this team takes me.

Next stop div 3 :D

Woa ...

Holy crap ..I haven't updated this thing for a very long time. Well it is 2011 now so I might as well tell you what has been going on.

First off The greater good is no more . That team died a long time ago leaving no support for the tf2 side. Therefore we decided to fold it. When that folded I took our best players at the time, Piggeh and Charizard, and merged it with an existing team good at last. We played the rest of the AFS and won divison 6 .



After that things got a little ugly. Good at last got rid of me because I was bad. This was when I decided to actually try and get good at this game as until that moment I was unaware of my lack of skill and understanding of the game. So i took the feeback from Good at last and got mentored up. Anyway after a while of studying how i play and improving my gamesense I decided to find a new team. I found a new one called Vuze gaming.

Vuze started off great. I had lots of fun and I felt I was improving a lot. However when 2 of our best players decided to move on from TF2 I noticed a steady decline in the teams motivation. This annoyed me quite a bit and sparked some tensions with other members of the team. SO i decided to call it quits on Vuze.

So this is where I am now..currently without a team and trailing for a new one.

This has covered almost half a year of time. Cool that I can condense it into smaller chunks.
