Everyone amazes me!

Since 2001 when we started we have never gotten the vote for team of the year. Unless I am mistaken. Last year p8nt named Naughty Dogs team of the year. Their reasoning was that the Dogs had won a 5-man, 10 man, 7-man, and X-Ball. The year prior to that Strange was the team of the year. The game of the year was the game we lost to them in Atlantic City. Some how they forgot we play against them in Chicago and WC and beat the crap out of them both times. In 2001 we lost to Trauma becuase they were undefeated in the Amateur bracket.
So now here we are in 2004. Dynasty played in 15 major events winning 9, 2nd place 2, 3rd place 3, 5th place 1. Tell me how
the Russians or anyone else are the team of the year. I can understand that they are the special award team of the year.
Or they get a special mention. But overall team of the year, give me a break.

What the heck do we have to do...........?

It's marketing rods, your associated with a company that has attracted quite a lot of hate over the recent year, people are fickle and your brand is associated with theirs...

It is sad, cos Dynasty is easily the best team to ever have played the game.

Matski:
I guess you are saying people are idiots then, arent you?

 

[Matski]

Nope, its just a fact that the words of a few can influence the opinions of the many even when its flawed........A certain dictator did it to an entire population in the 1940's for example....

I just get the impression peoples attitudes have changed towards Dynasty since they went SP, dont get me wrong imo its not justified in anyway...

Certainly dont agree that RL are team of the year, sure they are excellent players, but others cant exactly be inspired by them unless they are also paid to play full time by a millionaire banker..
...the only way another euro team will ever be as good is if they exchange shirts....like SD

You mean you don't enjoy going out there and smashing teams into the ground and winning that many events? I would much rather be known for that than have a single magazine call us the best team of the year (nothing against pgi). The team is already famous. Does putting this title on your resume make you any more famous?

...but maybe that post was made after a day of drinking

Russian Legion have raised the bar for paintball by setting a new standard. I voted them as team of the year.

Edit: I also agree with matski's points.

You can thank me later.

First, start an ALL-NEW team. This will get you all the votes like Arsenal got.

Obviously you are going to have to lose the Dynasty name, so just pick something else random, like Shockwave. But you have to put "UK" after it, so that way everyone knows who you rep. Now that I think of it, I'm not feeling Shockwave, so let's overuse the word "Agg"...everyone else does. A "Legion" or two probably wouldn't hurt either. And we have to take a hint from the NXL, ala Miami Effect. Moscow is the biggest city in Europa, but apparently they already have a team or something, so let's take the second-largest—London. I know no teams would want to use that name. Slap it all together, and you are the brand spakin' new London Agg Legion UK.

You need a new persona to match this change, so the roster is going to need a bit of work. Oliverway Anglay, Yanray Eenspangray, Odneyray Iressquay, Innyskay Evinkay etc. ...if you catch my drift.

Phonetically-speaking, you will all talk like Brad Pitt in Snatch. Angel will have to lose the Gucci for a Union Jack. Stuff like that.

Next, learn from past mistakes. You may not be able to play 10-man anymore, but get ahead of the Dogs by putting teams in tournaments for obscure formats like Ultimate Airball's Arenaball, WGP's Penalty Box ball, Stock-Class tournaments...maybe even play X-Box tournaments of GH's Tournyball against kids from South Korea.

Now what? You guessed it...drop down to Amatuer! Everyone likes up-and-coming teams, especially the Euros, and you can be the most up-and-coming'est UK team ever. Oh', and you have to go undefeated the entire year too.

Lastly, scribble "of Europe" everytime you see the word "Smart Parts" in your contract.

It's fool-proof.
