I'm editing the information. Too many invites; I don't feel it'd be much good to oust so many players with the same intentions, but instead direct these players to one another and let each other create teams and learn on their own level and pace. To which, I'd be glad to help the teams out. I'm not sure if the suggestions I made and sent to the 25+ players will all work out, some may try and make their own teams and enjoy the players I suggested they team with for this upcoming season. I expect people will make team threads, so be on the look out for them.
IF you'd like to be introduced or something, I'll still accept your invite.

Have gotten a lot of interest, almost too much to handle. Will still try to take in some more, bumping this.

I dont have any seasons of ESEA, but I do have 5 seasons of UGC 6s and HL. I'm definitely interested in improving and open to criticism.
Give me a tryout for roamer B)

Is not trying you out to play with you, but instead is trying you out to mentor you.

clorg, you're an idiot. I'm astounded by your myopic thought process of going and directly complaining to me solely because you're disappointed you aren't playing with your beloved jake rockwell. I had received nearly 30 invites; that's a lot of people to 'tryout' for one team. Especially when registration is ending next thursday, and this is Thanksgiving week. My thought process became: why oust over 20 players who want the same experience, when I can just try and help them by introducing these players to each other to try and create as many teams as possible based on what I saw in these players? Mostly everybody has the same intentions, and it'd be a shame to turn away so many. I feel it'd be better to make the most out of this list by merging these players and letting them learn at their own pace and making their own mistakes. I'm going to be available to help out these newly formed teams because I know that what each player showed me is that they have the capacity to learn and respect one another. You on the other hand, are being an absolute brat about this and are being too hardheaded to understand I'm trying to help the 28 other people, not just you.
You did correctly point out that originally I was making a team, yes you correctly pointed out I was trying people out; but not for the purpose of who I want to individually mentor. This idea of merging players and suggesting by pairing by similarities and strong points came about recently, and everybody so far has complied and graciously accepted my help. Sorry if what I'm doing so minorly inconveniences you.

8:15 PM - drinks: just tell people they didn't make the team or never message them again
I don't think you understand how tryouts work.

You still don't understand. I explained it to you several times now, and I don't think I'm getting through to you that I'm just not trying to help one group, but as many as I can. Stop posting.

I don't understand why you're so angry at me and how calling me names is appropriate. Not once did I say anything bad about you, or your idea. I told you originally I was looking for a team, one that I believed I would do well this and that I was NOT looking for a mentor. You on the other hand seem to think you know better than me about everything. How to play, AND who I play with? Please. I wouldn't have ever added you if I knew you weren't trying me out to play with you guys but were going to throw me on a team of people you think I would do well with.

I'm quite shocked you are still posting about this. You are putting words in my mouth. I never claimed to be superior to you in every way, nor did I say I knew who you worked well with. I merely made a suggestion based off of what playstyles everybody conformed to when playing with me. Only until just recently did I think to try and help everybody, instead of just 4 players, who had the same intentions by merging this enormous list of players. Yes, the idea originally was to make one team and help these players with potential grow into better players. Sorry, if the idea didn't get around to you that I am trying to benefit everybody by letting the like minded players get a chance to learn with each other, with me being available to help with what I can. I conveyed this idea to several people; I think I do recall you were content with this idea as I do remember telling you about this idea. You are just disappointed you didn't get to make a team with your friend jake rockwell; Which you can do, go right ahead, I don't care.

I'm quite shocked you're still being such a rude asshole to me. No, you never told me about this plan until about an hour ago. Yes, I wanted to play with jake AND you, that was the reason I had added you. Sorry, but that's what the looking thread told me.
Edit: You're making the assumption that we're all gonna go and form a team together, but you don't understand that most of the people who were trying out are also trying out for other people. So it's just not possible or reasonable to make a team with randoms.

I really like what you're trying to do, Dennis, but it isn't really what anybody thought they were getting into. I appreciate the effort though!

Appreciate it capn. Had this not exploded with interest, it would've gone down the road you originally hoped for. I didn't think I would get but maybe like at most 8 or so invites. It feels wrong to turn away a lot of people who want the same experience; so I just tried to make the best of it.
