In the last few events here DS has not shown the dominance that it once had. This is mainly because the legends that possessed this place before recent times moved on to other organziations. As a result DS has so far had a hard time finding it's place. In some events we have had disasterous turn outs for many of our members. Me included in this group.
That being said. During this BW I have been called a "pussy" for not entering into a match without an able bodied team and been told that DS needs to "grow some balls" because one of our very much inexperienced members opted out of playing a team that has had numerous outings and matches here.
While I understand the teams that are actually being successful wanting points for unique games I am not going to order my members to offer themselves up for sacrifice on the alters of MotR and FS. I have a LOT of people who are entirely green to anything like ER and BW before and they are being hunted like nerfs for easy wins.

Very nicely put XL.
No player should be forced to take any matches when they feel the teams aren't reasonably even. Very, very few people are willing to enter a match they know they are going to lose. No one is going to as XL put it, "offer themself up as a sacrifice" for the top 20ish players to slaughter as they like.
Heres a hint for those of you who are looking for matches with lower ranked players to increase your unique opponents points:
Instead of stacking your team with heavy hitters, choose a team of weaker members and maybe some of the people who have never played at ER before. People are more likely to accept matches that are close to fair than a slaughter. Also, this makes the game more interesting and challenging for yourself (which interestingly enough is the point of these tournaments).

I'm sorry that this happened to you or the members of DS. If I ever happen to be on a team that does that, then I'll do my best to report and/or stop it.

it's real sad peeps have to be like that... u'd think that this would be a chance for big and small clans to come togather and have fun... and understand when u say "no im not ready" or just plan no that they should just say ok np and move on... but no... theres always someone who as to call u crap because u don't wanna enter a match... hopfully this little problem pasts and u can take ur time trying to get back into strength... and im a member in MotR and i kinda feel ur pain in a way... sence people think ur real good for being in a great clan... u'd think they would respect u... but instead they kinda think ur crap when u can't do everything for everyone... idk if ive been on topic but it really sucks

Wrath, there is no need to insult anyone here ... in fact, thats part of the attitude that rips this community in half.

Just because DS' best players left the clan and joined =FS= for example .... there are still not many guys, who are playing RepCom in DS...
Well this is the future... If anyone got bored from this clan, he leaves and joins a new, "fresh" one. Loyality is today a thing what's very hard to find. Clanhopper times =/
