This scrim on June 17TH, 2007 was one of the worst displays of teamwork I have ever seen! What the f**k were you guys thinking? Sinner leaves with 8 rounds until they win. That's half the scrim. Knives leaves with 4 rounds to go. Since when is it acceptable to leave your team high and dry like that? In a fun scrim! It's wasn't even a real competition game. Would you guys pull some sh*t like that in a competitive game? Earlier today, I was contacted by a player, in private, who was worried because someone called Divine camping noobs. Big deal. It sounds a lot better than quitters. Now listen, I'm upset but only because I didnt expect this. I have since calmed down and thought of a really good plan to get us better. I want every Divine member to read and react to this post. And, I want every Divine member to be upset by this post. And, last, I want every Divine member to want to turn this around so we can go out there and kick their asses. What do you think: quitters or winners?

I (nathan dewi) wasnt part of the scrim but heard it was a bit of a shambles.... we need to get a proper dedicated team who want to scrim. Last week when we annihlated KOD it felt sooooo soo good and made me believe our clan was going places. Guys if u dont want to scrim thats fair enough just say! But those who do please make the effort. We wont win everytime but we sure will give them a hard time to beat us. We have some amazing players and could challenge the best if we work together!

i was also not part of this scrim, and i also feel embarrassed as it seems like our people don't even care about divine anymore. I am still highly devoted to divine and would never leave a scrim, even if i'm the last person there, i'd take the whole team on by myself and try to own em all. If I get in a scrim, I go til the last round of it. No matter what happens, i stay until the scrim is over. I represent divine and highly support it, I also devote myself to it so much that I wouldn't give up on it. If everyone else had this attitude, we'd have a lot better clan. And just because most of us camp, dosn't mean we suck. I know many of us (blonde, dewi, me) and excellent campers and can seriously own doing that. We need to do the best thing we can in scrims, and if that's camping, then freakin camp. And just because people make fun of divine or look down apon divine, dons't mean that divine is bad. We are an good clan destined for great things and great accomplishements. We all need to pull ourselves together and work like a team. Come on guys, we can do this! we just need to work together!

Hey guys. Sorry about what happened in the scrim. :-/I didn't think our clan could stoop to that when were on the up to try and make our clan stand amongst the best of them, btu yet it happened, and I can't believe Knives and Sinner.
Like Scarthman said, we must be dedicated to the clan our don't be in it at all. It's hard to up-start a clan and what was displayed today in the scim isn't making it any easier. I'm all for Divine 100% and will do what it takes for Blonde , Dewi, and the clan. ;D

yes, every scrim is important, if we lose, we get more bad reputation and people think of us as more of losers, if we win, then we gain good reputation and people begin to like us more. Every scrim, big or small, is important in a clan and all should be treated the same and took just as seriously as every other scrim should be. But losing a scrim, we get more people not to like us, if we win, we get more people to like us, it's as simple as that and with that said, we need to win some freakin scrims people.

Winning and losing is not important. It's about the show you put on. If we went out there and still lost 16-1 with everyone we started with, then at least we'll know that we're not good eonugh for them yet but by leaving, that, sure as hell, is not a good thing to put out there.

Realistically, we can't hope to win too many like this. He have a bunch of talent but teamwork is something of a premium right now. We could do two things: find clans who aren't as good and beat them (morale booster) or we continue to aim higher while practicing and lose (teamwork builder). 2 key things: get a mic and download Vent. Ventrilo.com. We use that to speak privately and work out strategies. Could even be used in practices (2v2 or 3v3. You talk in individual rooms and it'll be like having a scrim)

sorry, but the thing about vent and me, is that when I use it, my ping go upto about 400 and I can't play css. so I'll just stick to typing things that I want only my team to see, the rest I can use with the mic. oh and blonde, you should really get a mic man.
but yah, about the scrims and with win/lose thing. I think we should do one, then the other. Build up our confidence by beating weaker clans, then build up our teamwork power.

So, morale first then teamwork. Ok, what does everyone else think? Teamwork or morale?
And, I do have a mic...

ok let me rephrase that, you need to get a mic that works and that we can actually hear you from.
