22/02/09: A few matches added + Goodbye Caim

The Gloom world cup is now over and [bad] has woken up again. This month we have so far played a total of three matches, vs. 420, sX and xBT. Each match was a victory for us, GGs.

Sadly, Caim has announced that he will quit gloom. I have removed him from our active team for now, thanks for the GGs and you are welcome back anytime. I have also removed RaDs, since there hasn't been a word from him for a while. RaDs is naturally welcome back anytime as well.

23/10/08: With all the recent changes I thought it's time for an update.

I have removed Nunca, Vendo and hb from our active team on the website. Nunca left for AK-47 and Vendo and hb haven't been playing for a long while. This doesn't mean that they are not part of the clan anymore however - they just aren't in our active team.

In order to cope with our recent losses, we have recruited 2 new faces - welcome Titonex and Caim! Even though RaDs is inactive at the moment, I'll keep him on our team and the website as he has explained his inactivity and desire to play for us again in the future.

Our current crew: moo, Samedi, Virgo, EpeLiz, glassman, Mythago, Snoopi, Titonex, Caim, RaDs

24/08/08: We shook off the dust of our recent inactivity with a friendly game against the runners up in the clan cup, 420.

After playing our last 5 clanwars on pre-determined random maps, it was quite nice to be selecting the map to play. We chose RAGE and 420 chose GLOOM. Snoopi had some major connection problems in this match and disconnected frequently (a couple of times when he was the only builder lol). The game went well and was a good match all round, with the result ending up 3-1 to [bad]. Well done to 420 on winning one of the rounds on RAGE. Well played!

Team [bad] : EpeLiz, Mythago, Glassman, Samedi^, Snoopi

Team [420] : NuM, Psylo, Henne37, Ole, Entreri, Ation

27/04/08: The final week of the clan cup saw us face sX on the random maps G2SE and RAGE.

Round 1 was on G2SE with bad playing as Aliens and sX as Humans, both teams building forward from the start led to the fight being focused on the usual forward chokepoint. Soon after the aliens got the upper hand and pushed forward, the humans defense fell and their forward spawns were exposed. Despite trying to flee with engies the humans were overrun after 13 mins.
Round 2 was a human rush from bad. Most of the early frags went to the humans and within minutes there were turrets sealing the aliens in their base. The eggs were taken down in 4 mins.
Round 3 was on RAGE, bad were Aliens and sX were Humans. The humans started out well, getting some forward turrets up and taking alot of early frags, bad recovered quickly and pushed them back to their original base and began an assault. The human base was destroyed in 11 mins.
Round 4 was another human rush from bad, early machine gun turrets choked the alien attack and there were many early frags gathered by bad. The round was ended in 3 mins.

20/04/08: Week four of the cup saw us come up against pA, the random maps were RSMSE-R2 and G2SE.

Round 1 was on RSMSE-R2 with bad as Aliens and pA as Humans. The round started out very cagey, neither side wanting to give away frags. After a very tough few minutes the middle classes were on the scene and the humans retreated into original base. It seemed to stay this way for a while with the humans firing rockets from base and the aliens struggling to get enough frags for a large attack. The humans made a few attacks of their own but the final spider defense was always solid. The game ended tied after 30 mins.
Round 2 went more swiftly, bad as humans rushed forward and made some good turrets at both front and back of the alien base. The pA team struggled to get frags here as both exits were sealed, and pretty soon a large attack came to their base. Pinned down in the original base, pA spammed spikes but a few HT rockets took out all their spikers and an XT went up to finish the round off in 6 mins.
Round 3 was on G2SE with pA as Humans and bad as Aliens. Both teams rushed out at the start and the battle centered on the middle of the map as usual here. After a long fight the aliens started to gain ground on the humans, who were forced to engy further back. With the final minute approaching bad made another mass assault, the humans were beaten with seconds to spare.
Round 4 was another long hard fight. The pA alien team were quickly pushed back and the humans were engy'in outside their base very early. Despite gaining the early territory bad couldn't break down the pA defense, and some occasional stinger rushes made the human team turn to defend. With the time ticking away bad made another mass assault and the alien base was destroyed, although a Guardian had escaped and crawled into the Human base to hide and ensure a tied round.
Good games wp

13/04/08: Week three of the cup saw us face 420, the random maps were MINES-1 and G2SE.

Round 1 was similar to last weeks opener against xBT, a good fight with great defense from the 420 breeders, the game ended with less than a minute to spare. The following rounds went a little more to plan, and we managed to end each round in roughly 5 minutes. Great games 420, unlucky with round 1 (about 10 seconds more and it would have been tied) Well played.

06/04/08: The second week of the clan cup saw us come up against xBT, the random map draw gave us VITTU and TKSE.

The rounds on VITTU were both 30 min, close matches. We managed to end round 1 with only 40 seconds or so remaining- awesome game all round. Round 2 ended in a tie after much attack from both sides. We won both rounds on TKSE with alot less fuss, thanks mainly to alot of practice matches we have played with that as our map of choice. GGs xBT, GL in the remaining rounds.

Team [bad] : EpeLiz, Virgo, Redeem, Samedi^, Moo

30/03/08: The clan cup got underway today. We had our first match against the newly formed [bw]. The random map draw gave us GLOOM and LOSTB for this game.

The match ended up 4 - 0 to bad and was a quick game with every round lasting around 5 mins or so. GG's to [bw] though for getting a team together for the cup, good luck in the remaining fixtures.

16/03/08: Another friendly match to report, this week we played SX on our usual map of TKSE, SX chose LOSTB. If I thought there were some dodgy moments last week, this time we went one better SX pushing us hard on TKSE, forcing us to run and breed to survive. The same thing happened on lost as they ripped our base with Exterminators. Much feed and frantic breed kept us alive and we managed to rebuild and come back. Great games SX well played.

Team [bad] : HB, Snoopi, Redeem, Samedi^, Moo

09/03/08: Virgo has joined us, bringing our numbers up to 10 active players. We are pretty much full now. Welcome virgo

This week we had a friendly vs pA. A top notch turnout from bad saw 7 out of our 10 active members turn up for the match (snoopi and vendo are on holiday still) and all players got a game as we switched the team around each round. The opposite happened for pA and they had to get a merc player to make up the numbers (Ation played as [pA]Lucker). We managed to win all four rounds but there were some dodgy moments! Great games, well played to both teams for a very good fight.

Team [bad] : EpeLiz, Mythago, Redeem, Samedi^, Moo, RaDs, Virgo
