Discuss the BattleCity League Finals in the Forums 

The BCL Finals came last night with Legionnaires claiming the Championship over Outrival!!!

The game was a blast, so long as you define blast as lots of CAPS LOCK TRASH TALKING. Legionnaires showed up with five players ready to go, and Outrival had four… but wait… DRAMA TIME !

Although Outrival had a full line-up, a conspiracy was in the air… Cseow was no where to be seen! The meeting room was quickly flooded with accussations of Rise Against plotting to destroy Outrival by telling Cseow the game was at 10pm, rather than 9pm! The idea of each team being responsible for their own matters and knowing the schedule was quickly put aside. The fact that this game was scheduled 2 weeks ago was also quickly ignored in the discussion. All the drama and spam prevented Outrival from telling Jetli there was a game, so he left.

At this point, Outrival was short-handed, and this being the BCL finals, they decided it was a good time to continue spamming the chat with profanities about how they won't play. They quickly forgot that they did not let Legionnaires wait for a fourth player last game… Of course, while Pirate and Clientel continued their CAPS LOCK spamming of the meeting room, along with misery who isnt even on either of the teams, Legionnaires were continually offering to wait until 10pm to play the game… Outrival thought it best to ignore this and continue howling about a conspiracy…

So we decided to start the game! Jizohn never joined, and Pirate joined but refused to play. We told them again Legionnaires was happy to re-schedule, so they of course drove over and began trash talking them instead of nicely thanking them for a re-schedule. Apparently Legionnaires were afraid to play them… =p

Eventually 10pm came, cseow was no where to be seen and the game began 4 vs 2 anyways. COOL. It could have been 4 vs 4 had all the original DRAMA not happened =p

Despite having played in the BCL Finals, Clientel apparently forgot there was a 1 minute grace period. He quickly built to Legionnaires base, surrounded it with houses and turret rushed them. He actually did a good job, and had he just waited the one minute to do that, he may actually have won. Instead his team was disqualified for breaking the rules after having already wasted everybody's time.

Despite this, Stig, who was the one who asked his team to play at 10pm instead of 9, showed up in the meeting room and informed Outrival his team would not mind re-starting the game. Since Jizohn was on AIM, they may even have had a better chance if they messaged him… Of course, they decided it best to SPAM the meeting room with EZX OWEEENED WER CHMPMIOONS. We waited for about 5 minutes thinking eventually they might decide to play the re-match, but they just kept typing away, so we all just left to let them enjoy their "victory" =p

Congrats Legionnaires! Thanks for your patience last night, r00fles!
