seanbud why don't you reply to the things kbk and other said about your teammates admitting they were offclassing "to give the stream a good time"? that would be an actual "The response..."

To the chess club guys...you didnt bitch when we offclassed against you last season and this entire season we haven't had the same structure for more than 2 weeks in a row. If you want to tango with FT because of the questionable actions they took thats fine...but get off your high horse regarding the offclassing argument.

Well you guys won your matches offclassing while FT got 5-0'd in under 10 minutes...

So youre only allowed to offclass for "fun", if you can roll the other team? Got it.

obviously platinum hasn't seen the match because that was a really weak off-classing effort by ft, like it wasn't even that much "fun" to watch.

lol why aren't you getting this? The point is to put on a competitive match. If you can do that while offclassing, more power to you, but if you're going to make people stay up late to watch a 5-0 roll, it's just not cool.

no, you're only allowed to off class when the match will provide quality entertainment, especially when representing esea and being front paged on a website worth more then your house and car put together.

No I haven't watched the match yet, but the principle behind the argument is flawed. Seems the majority of the mob against ft has no mind of their own and goes with the whims of the casters. The facts as I understand them:
Casters are biased and uninformed - caster's fault.
Justin interrupts cast - justin's fault
Slin mutes -good job
Slin unmutes as djcs attack on justin finishes - bad job
Ft offclasses as they said they would - they said so in advance, casters fault for continuing
Chess club is pissed because they prepped hard, shit talks all game - chess clubs fault
Casters reiterate and narrate the fight going on in game - casters fault.
Post game clockwork drops f bombs everywhere - clocks fault / cast should have muted
COMMUNITY LYNCH MOB ATTACKS INVITE FOR PLAYING A GAME NOT AS SERIOUSLY AS THEY WANT - COMMUNITY FAULT
Nfl teams sit starters after theyve made playoffs all the time..theres no pitchforks and torches.
Everyone needs to grow up, mistakes were made all around by heated emotional people in a hobby that is trying to advance into professionality. They will happen. Time for everyone to accept the apologies already made by the parties involved, and whoever didnt doesnt owe YOU one at all. John was the most important casualty and he is ready to move on. Take it as a blessing and lets look forward to a great end of the season. Thanks again for being understanding john.

Eh, there's a very real injury concern for their players every time they step on the field, I don't think FT was worried about a freak carpal tunnel injury affecting their lan performance. Also, the guys that replace them on the field are at least trying and playing their positions, because they want to earn playing time in the playoffs if possible. I don't think I've seen any NFL teams trotting out their wide reciever on the offensive line, or letting the punter be the quarterback for the game. There would be pitchforks and the league would come down on them hard, especially if they were a league attempting to get a foothold on a bigger audience. Noone wants to see a completely non competitive game where visibly noone is even trying. That's why the pro-bowl sucks :P

Was FT not notified prior to the match that it was going to be casted? You have somewhat of a responsibility to try in every official match you play, especially if it's being streamed to 1000+ people. If FT wanted to fuck around, they could have taken the forfeit win and scrimmed an IM team instead of wasting everyone's time.
BTW I've yet to see an NFL team put their running back on QB and their QB on WR though. There's a difference between using backups and putting people on a position that they are completely new to.

They could have told us in advance they were gonna offclass so we wouldn't have bothered scrimming, not get caught in some stupid argument between them and the casters. I'm not mad because they were bad off-classing, I'm mad because they wasted our time and 1300+ people's time. Don't know how getting rolled in 12 minutes seems like a good idea for a show.
At least the blame has shifted towards the casters (somehow it did) and we can all just continue playing the game. Now we can all get past this shit and concentrate on playoffs, one bad night of TF2 shouln't ruin the entire experience for the community.

Just completely ignore the fact that NFL players get paid millions to go out and perform, and fans pay to watch their games. TF2 players PAY to play in the league, and you, the viewer who pays nothing to watch, is supposed to tell them what they should play? Don't be so dense. I don't agree with a lot of what happened, especially if the match was intentionally thrown as suggested. But telling people what class to play is fucking ludicrous. What class should I play next match?

Everyone was expecting a tight entertaining game and FT knew that. FT disappointed a lot of people including John who put TF2 on the front page. It was supposed to be another step towards legitimizing TF2, but instead we got a bunch of angry people dicking around for 10 minutes. Of course the players don't owe us anything, but it benefits everyone, including themselves, if they put on a good show. Once again, it's a huge dick move to waste 1000+ people's time.

Completely undebatable. Now, the people that subscribe to Tf.tv's channel have a slightly different argument. But the people that don't subscribe don't have that argument.

We really need to stop talking about this whole thing so that it can end and we can move on.
Plat was right: Everyone (including the community) is at fault, the biggest victim was Twitch John, and he's ready to move on and play some esports. So let's just do that.
