Open Mic #1

Greetings GlobalUnreal Comrades!

Here is the first edition of Open Mic -- my hopefully entertaining and noteworthy finger on the pulse of the community. Open Mic will be a weekly installment where I randomly poll members of GlobalUnreal via irc (#ipug, come join us!) on certain areas of the game, community, or current hot topics. If I've somehow missed you on the weekly question, this means one of two things -- a) you weren't idling in the channel or b) you never answered my pm cuz you're afk all the time :( Take initiative and send me a PM if you'd like to participate and share your input! I'll be happy to share the weekly question or topic with you. I'll take everyone's opinions and votes into account, however, I'll most likely only quote a direct few, so don't be discouraged if you don't see your name in lights one week.

In the future, I'm hoping these are a little more in depth with more responses. I've already done 2 to kickstart the segment, so keep an eye out for the 2nd post soon. But, without further adieu ----

Out of 11 responses (33 total votes per side) the following were the results:

Offense: Cy, Dewsick, Paco
Notable mentions: Serenity, IR

Defense: Pete, Shots, Rain
Notable mentions: Serenity, Sorn

"Dewsick is shit <3"

"Cy - A lot of trouble hitting him, isn't stupid with running and a constant pressure attacker as opposed to fragging and being slow."

"I like running wit kud"

"Dewsick - Offensive juggernaut with high fragging power and precise comms. Probably one of the nicest people to have on teamspeak and overall a solid player."

"Sorn - Very, very smart and insane fragging capability"

"Rain - If pete's not in the server, he's probably top frags/acc - solid comms, anchor defender"

"Serenity - sick aim, good comms, great team player"

"Defense Pete - guy has top frags/acc every pug - good comms, Mr $1000 next season"

"IR - grabs a lot, good comms, good aim"

This is a definite Open Mic that I will be revisiting once we have a completed season of league play as those who aren't familiar with players will be able to add their thoughts as well. Didn't respond and get your votes in? Disagree with the lists? Voice your op below!

Nice concept for a thread. As a suggestion, you might want to edit the title so people know what the open mic is about. I'm honored that people voted for me in the top 3 but I feel like I might be getting some votes on name, since my play has been mediocre of late.

with JYB starting to show his face again, I'm not sure who he's going to bump out of the top 3 on defense. Some really tough people to cap on these days.

It's now my job to find out who put nice words for me. And paypal him every monthly pay check.
Thanks for the votes! And GJ Cy <3
Also very surprised Serenity didn't make best defender. Perhaps shots > Serenity is incorrect but it's opinionated!

Shots has his moments, but I would agree that his is out classed on defense by Sorn and Serenity

don't read too much into this fellas. it's just a "currently happening in #ipug" thing.
shots pugs a lot more so more people have his name on the tip of their tongues and sorn never pugs soooo ya.
