Its even funnier that they got rid of the online player count that used to be on the front page.

Haha indeed, probably too ashamed to put it back there  :lol2:

I wish they would put the online user count back up lol I am hoping thier crappy servers can actually run the ac this year. Even if the crowd is  getting smaller, people come back for it still. Can't wait to lurk the boards between playing too.

That user count had been broken since the transition. It was probably so low on their list of things to fix (which is probably the longest list ever) that they decided to just completely scrap it.

That's the same day users can see which team codex chose without having the advanced membership, correct? 

 

Edited because I can't grammar.

I agree that the drama is lacking. The funniest topics were the taco leaks and the ACGs saved the altador cup.

I knew about Codex, but it never occurred to me that they'd all get on the same team and cheat to victory, I mean, this is a cheating site but the thought never crossed my mind,

Nope, this year they don't participate. Probably because they can't win anymore :p

I'm really surprised o.O

 

But they will not play together, or even separately will play? I mean... the groups no longer exist ? *unsure*

They still exist, but will not play together. (as far as I know)

I think they want the brackets gone, and the ACGs too of course.

I agree 100%.

 

I would also like to add that last year was a huge morale buster. They now have experience knowing that they can't even hope to win even if the best ASG's banded together on a small team. Last year, we were on a midsized/semi-large team and still beat them comfortable because towards the end when legit people were getting allstar, their attack force was dwindling with loss of motivation to hit double or triple all star. It's natural since they are humans who play manually (for the most part).

I never realized because the ASG do not choose bigsized teams . In my opinion, big sized teams are more competitive, then they are much easier to motivate even after getting the all star. They act as if they were one ASG , but are faithful to the same team for several years

Are groups of All-Stars who each year join a different team.

 

Last year these two groups played together.

The ASG SOTAC if i am not wrong originated from the RI team when they took gold

LD won with SOTAC but that caused a lot of issues (LD players think the win was not solely due to SOTAC)

and that was about when people started complaining and aware

RI and LD are not small teams but at that time the ACG was not around

After ACG got in the picture, their strategy changed i guess
