Without reading the last few pages, I can honestly say that this community sucks as a whole. If you do not like the game and the direction it is going, stop playing. Further more stop posting on the forums about how much you do not like the direction the game is taking. If the game was made for you, I'm sure someone would care about your opinion that it isn't made the way you want.
The alpha testers are spending hours over there, trying to smooth the game out for everyone else, instead of everyone coming in at the same time, seeing the game is seriously not up to par, complain about it on the forums, and leave. On top of that, who even guaranteed that the game would be the same upon release? It's changed a lot already, needless to say it will change upon release, and soon after that, when things are opened to everyone.
I've spent hours looking at the site, trying to find places that needed improvement, ran countless scrims, watched countless replays, clicking random buttons to see if everything was in working order. Others have even came back with screen shots, updates, opinions, replays, players, whatever. All to update you. And outside of that, if you're too stupid to look at what we've supplied you and judge the game on your own, then I feel sorry for you. You probably won't experience much success either way if you honestly came here to complain that testers have an advantage.
Yes, we signed up, and so did almost all of the site. Just because we were selected to do the testing, does not require people to act jealous and complain about an advantage. I'm sure once you spend the amount of time we have on the game, you'll have an advantage as well. Seriously. How selfish. I don't care if this thread was made in jest, or if it was serious, but it really irks me that this community is so thankless for the time and effort not only the testers, but the admins are putting into this game. All I've read so far is negativity about how certain people don't want the game to change, don't like the new system, don't like this, don't like that. How about supporting the fact that Bort, after 5 years decided to make a new game that pretty much has everything we've asked for since the beginning, and it's only in the alpha stages.
TL;DR, shut up, stop complaining that you didn't get picked, you damn child.
Serious question: What is your history in coordinating in THIS GAME? Defense? Offense? How many gameplans have you put together at a higher level with dots in plateau etc? Any World League coordinating history? If your answer is the equivalent of sh*t on a stick, you need to stfu yourself.
