Who entered CW? Three. One was me. I'm sorry, but your points seem rather invalid given that I worked for those points and you're saying that it's disgusting? Even indirectly, that's how I'm taking it. I know you worked hard too, and many others in non-placing teams (and those on placing teams), but it seems like you're complaining about the basics of teambuilding: getting people on the team, and getting people to compete. I didn't know Vultan, but he reached out to me, and ultimately that's why I joined his team. If you had reached out to me, I'd have joined yours. Sometimes it's about being proactive. You don't have to be friends with everyone--all it takes is some effort to ask people. You say the size of your team doesn't matter. It does matter, but what matters more is actually reaching out to people.
I'm bowing out of the overall discussion because I can clearly see I've caused problems, which I apologize for. I've also already apologized for this as well, but I'll do it again. I'm sorry I offended people with my comment about how the 40.5 point gap between third and fourth place was disgusting. In no way was I trying to offend anyone with that statement; it was merely a poorly presented opinion that should've been kept to myself. I apologize now for any others I have offended with that statement, whether they've posted here in this thread or not.

I hope that maybe something comes out of this discussion, but I feel as if I should no longer take part. It was fun playing WAR with you guys during the brief weeks I participated in more than one section.
