>>> Team BattleMode League Season 9 <<<

[Major]

I'm with no filming. There is enough lag as it is.

[Feathers McGraw]

...Well Baba says it doesn't create more lag.

Should we get Rx in here before tonight and have him testify if his camera dohickey makes lag? Cause apparently this works for the PSL, and I don't know why it wouldn't work here.

[Reagent X]

Filming does not add to the lag. We have done it countless times under extreme pressure in the PSL finals with no ill effects. The key issue is actually this: I have no idea what to film in a TBM game. What would you want to see? Seems a huge challenge to figure out what to focus on. You would need someone more experienced at TBM than myself I think.

[CB]

Maybe 2 observers filming and then edit.

[Blind Cide]

OK, I have a server up. Can someone test it please?

My connection went down a few times this afternoon, so you might want to have a backup ready.

[dad]

Seems smooth to me BC, I was pinging sub 100. Thanks for your help!!

[General Vig-VT-]

You want an explaination guys? Well here it is

Week 1: Bye week, I played for an hour

Week 2: I play, we lose to the Boomies at Bridge world

Week 3: I don't show up due to forgetfulness (1)

Week 4: I show up and sit

Week 5: Bye week.

Week 6: I don't show up due to forgetfulness (2)

Week 7: I show up and play.

Week 8: I show up and sit

Week 9: I show up and sit

Week 10: I show up and play.

Semi Finals: I show up and play

Finals: I show up and play or sit, Vow never to captain in TBML again as long as Mystery Man can't deal with being relaxed about a game...

Please tell me how not coming two weeks is a crime.

If you would like to talk anymore about this matter, throw me an email.

- A not so Happy Vig

[Feathers McGraw]

Well, I was going by what people had played for in actual games. If I'm counting this right, you only played three out of nine games (not counting the BYEs)? Also the lack of emails, which I find rather annoying since for the whole season I had no idea what we were doing. You could have participated more is what *I'm* getting at, unless Laizze-Faire is your captaining style.

I'm willing to drop it really, but I just wanted to show my concern here since emails were not happening.

Rx - ...hmm... umm yeah I see your point about "what to film". Very valid point. Up to you in the end I guess. I like CB's idea of having two sides to view and then edit them together, but that would require someone else having to download, run, and learn how to use the filming program. (Unless Rx can do two at once?)

I look forward to tonight's battle.

Congrats to The Big Boomies for winning TBML Season 9. They swept Vig's team in the finals. I hope your toasters look good on your trophy shelves.

It's been a good season, we've struggled through some server issues, but overall it was a good time.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank some of the people that helped make the season flow smoothly:

CB - for supplying the map downloads for the entire season, running a loading server, and was always willing to host a backup server if needed.

Jerry - was always willing to provide a server and technical backup when needed, he also helped with some of the thread graphics.

Rooster and Mr. Phobik - hosted servers through much of the season and were greatly appreciated.

Blind Cide - really came through at the end of the season and provided servers for us when Rooster and Phobik couldn't.

Mighty Mouse - for making that fancy score chart each week.

My Team - CB, Jerry, Mr. Phobik, Old Tanker, Jack Jack, it's easy being a captain when you have reliable players.

Supra/Get Some - for co-commissioning

And last but not least, everyone who participated in the league.

Please take a moment to look at Supra's thread regarding TBML Season 10 , it looks to be more exciting than ever.

Thanks to everyone and good job Big Boomies!!!!

[supratank]

And last but not least.... A BIG THANKS...

Goes to DAD... for running this thing largely alone.

Dad is on the hook for TBML 10... and I hope we can have another great season!

Great Job boomies.... well played!
