Raven vs. Jake
round 1, Employee of the Month (Jake's choice)
10-0 to Jake (forfeit)
round 2, BBlair (Raven's choice)
7-5 to Jake
comments: EotM is a horrible level for anyone who has always based their game on all-round gameplay strategies and who can't adapt to gameplay where all the emphasis is on 'tricks' and none on the all-round gameplay... plus there was a crapload of lag in Jake's favor... he never got hit at the right time and I got hit even when I shouldn't have.
As for BBlair, Veg hosted (as opposed to ZD 1 for EotM). Veg's server hardly lagged, although Jake still had his lag-armors on for the most part. He also played a smart game and took pretty much no risks whatsoever and gave me a few airs.
I'd say this tournament's mappool will go down in history as the one where the worst-ever substitution of a classic level took place.
EDIT: Afterwards, I figured out why I lagged so bad in the match against Jake. Someone was using the same (very limited) bandwidth from another computer to stream video and sound. It's my responsibility to eliminate lag sources on my end, but GRRRRR.
PS. The 'reputation'-feature is a cruel joke.
