M25 leg 3 Dunstable May 18 - the draw
- Thread starter Liz
- Start date
well it sounds like some one has a guilty concence cos nobody on here had said anything about beaker playing for team zone and if remember rightly was there a post on her reminding zone that he was helping with the division selections but i can't find it ?
so what your saying is that an experienced tournament play weakens a teams placing within divisions
so what happens when an inexperienced player plays with a team do they go up a level?
well does anyone know the answer

sorry i forgot to mention this is in no way aimed at any teams playing in the m25 league
but is aimed at the division organisers where the problems seem to be in regard to what divisions teams should be in

Why I oughta...... I leave 5 days after this event so it isn't exactly too far to waitthought beaker had been deported anyways
Liz was responding to MarkR who said:
As AFAIK I'm their only guest (and hence new blood) then she prolly thought that was about me.
On a general note, I didn't have anything to do with where Zone went, I wouldn't of even if Liz had asked (which she didn't to her credit). Zone are a new team made of only a few "seasoned" players who are bringing in a lot of never-played-tournaments guys. They are doing well so far because of the hard work these guys are putting in with training etc and playing the right way, not because they are all ex-pro's with shed loads of experience.
As for Storm, it was suggested that Storm 2 were moved down but as it was entered as Storm AM rather than Storm 2 I think they thought it was a different squad which justified the Div more. If that had been made clear it was the "old" 2 squad it might have been different.
However, there also isn't the same level of teams in Div 1 this time as the likes of Shock, Backlash etc aren't attending.
If you need to put teams up to make up the pro div then the highest placed am teams overall should be asked to move up.
You have not done this you have just put in any one.
To say that storm am should be there is a joke ,on what grounds did you work that out as they said they got stuffed last time..
We are here to play 6 tornys how can we play for the am title if you keep changing the divs around.
This needs to be sorted out befor this ends up like playing temple when you never new what div you were in.

We played the last round in Div 1 even though we asked to be moved. We were told we should have mentioned it when we paid the deposit. Too late to argue. We went, played and I had a good laugh being shot at. I enjoyed the day as a learning experience.
Now we're back in Div 1 even after we were assured we wouldn't be again.
Almost all the players in Storm Am have only played a handful of tournaments and those who have played more are not Pro's. 2 even had their first tournament at the last M25!
Just want to play some paintball and enjoy it. Feeling a little victimized here.
We changed the name from Storm 2 to Storm Am (and were flattering ourselves with the Am) so there was no confusion about the type of teams we thought we could compete against.
We want to play against good teams so we can improve but not teams that just walk down the field without any effort!
Please can somebody sort out this problem as a few of the team were a bit demoralized by the last arse kicking we got and this might affect thier future in the game and in our team. They want to play not be practice targets.

i cannot believe that STORM AM are in div 1 again, did anyone enjoy kicking them from pillar to post last time?....i think not!!!
i specifically told (and PM'd) Sparklie that the team named STORM AM were either an AM B or Novice team. so why does this automatically place them in the PRO div?
i am sorry guys, i do hate moaning especially on forums but this is not fair on STORM AM and also the rest of that Div! our guys are already thinking of dropping this tourney, or would that be an underlying intention? i really hope not!
all we want is to have a fair Tournament from everyones perspective, and placing a team that has only trained once together (yes its a different team from last time again, and yes the organisers have been told) in the PRO div is simply not great!!
