TFTV writer's call for Open and IM rankings

0 Frags +

Hey guys,

We have maybe 2-3 spots across Open and IM; Open, at the moment, has no one interested (to my knowledge). If you'd be interested in covering open, feel free to let me know by PM. Also, just to save some time, include a write up of a team currently in open. You can do 1 team, but to get a good idea, I think at least 3 teams would be great. You can see the previous writeups in the past community news. Don't worry about formatting. There's a good chance you'll have to work with another writer.

For IM, drshadowpuppet is interested in either writing and/or assisting with stats and stuff. I think for really good articles it'd be great to have a primary writer beefed up with stats. Again, just send in some write ups about current teams.

Sounds like there's a lot of interest floating around, so I'm excited to get it on board.

How is peys team #2 and my team not even on that list? The last 4 times we played them we beat our tied them. At least check logs before you make a writeup.

It takes less than a minute to check the logs for a team before writing about them. Checking the recent logs seems the minimal someone should do before making a writeup otherwise it is just pointless banter and circle jerking. MGE me nerd.

I think smoke nothing everyday, all blue, greatness m, and jags team deserve the spot more than some of the other teams on your list. Big ones that should be replaced on your list are I will dad and elite pwnage squad. Elite pwnage squad's placement is in the air since their having roster issues and whoever they pickup on scout has big shoes to fill since Marty was one of that teams best players. Also, although there's a lot of good dm players on I will dad there isn't a whole lot of experience on, well, anyone on that team. They can probably go far in open it depends on how much they improve during the season.

pie_heroThen write screwball

I never claimed to be a writer however if you want i could look at logs and make a much more accurate top 10 prediction. Telling someone to check there info before they write is constructive criticism.

I would've written 16 but as I said writing for a lot of teams alone is pretty tiring

I am not angry with him and his writing was good besides the accuracy of it's claims. I am just saying when you are ranking teams that you know little about it is a good idea to check logs.

The whole point of this is to find people who are interested in providing writeups for Open / IM. Those were TRIAL PIECES from aim, Christ. Not to mention he didn't even rank any team outside of the top 2. If you're gonna bitch about your team not making it / name being spelled wrong / misinfirmation wait until whoever does the official writeup to "provide constructive criticism." It's pretty disgusting how people act over something as simple as a trial writeup / drafts, especially when they themselves are doing none of the writing.

Then check logs and explain your reasoning for your top ten placement or you can keep doing nothing and appreciate those who spend time on writing these articles
