This will be my only post regarding this situation. This is exactly what happened. As I approach the station to set up, a member from DGK was also arriving. I sit down on the inside, and he asks me if I will please sit on the outside (towards crowd), I didn't see why not, so I did. As we set up, at least 30 kids approach behind us and before the series even starts, and begin to insult my team.

Before the series even began, someone yells in Hokum's ear " Hokums going to choke, Hokums going to choke". I turn to the ref who was right next to me, and tell him to watch that person, and remove him if he gets to crazy. The series starts, the crowd begins to insult us individually for example " Slim picks up the sniper, he should put that down because he f***ing sucks with it, what is he doing, Slim what are you doing! You are still choking. Choke Choke Choke. < This was all said in 30 seconds to slim, and was continued non stop communication to every single person on our team the entire match. Saying it was impossible to concentrate would definitely be applicable to this situation.

I ask the referee to kick them out, he stands up and then asks them to stop. They stop for 10 seconds and start up again. While the referee should have FOR SURE stopped them, especially since we told him at least 3 times to stop, followed by our coach telling him, there really wasn't much he could have done. Their was 30 of them, and 1 of him, so I hold no hard feelings towards the referee.

I had a few friends in the crowd who began chanting inferno. They were immediately threatened to get the crap beat out of and were pretty much bullied away from the game. The crowd then started to yell as loud as possible into our ears 'DGK!!! DGK!!!!! so that we could not communicate (they were not cheering the other team on, just trying to insult and hurt our team).

As professionals we should have been able to block out the noise and what not correct? Well, I doubt that ANY single team on the pro circuit could have won that series. We had zero capability of hearing ourselves, and also were being individually singled out and given a play by play, so that it was nearly impossible to fully concentrate. It is a shame that this happened, but their really wasn't anyway we could replay the series.

Also, DGK did trash talk in game by yelling ' you f***ing suck' and what not, and received no technicals, but they were not the problem and did not affect our game. So, DGK is for sure not able to wipe their hands clean of this.

A few members of DGK came up and apologized after the game for their trash talking, and my teammates did not accept their apology. That's like killing someone's kid and saying "no hard feelings right? I don't know what I was thinking." < (definitely not that drastic, but I needed a metaphor). If they want to talk crap then go for it, its allowable to some point, (they passed the point but it doesn't matter) but don't come back saying your sorry and you didn't mean it. You chose to break the rules and say stuff, so live with the fact that no one on our team will accept your apology.

Regardless, this is done with, everyone now knows the situation. My teammate Hokum has quit, and I think Slim is quitting as well. I doubt Soviet will quit but who knows.

Str8 and FB top 1 and 2 in no particular order for Orlando.

Brute

it is truly sad and i think that MLG should have done something because in a professional sport there is at least distance from the player and people watching. Also The crowd threatened with a lot of racist and cursing.

Also posted by hokum:

MLG:Cash Cow
ME:not grass
This was from MLG San Diego, and I really hope people don't do that to my team at MLG Orlando. My Dad won't let that happen, though.

Gotta pay for college somehow. My work schedule usually consists of about 7am-2pm, then most of the time 5pm-1am at another store. The University of Dallas is roughly $35,000 with living expenses. Government hates poor white people, so I have to pay alot more than I could. The only reason I am attending is because the school has given me a very good scholarship, but I still have to pay a substancial amount. Plus, the university has a campus in Rome that I will be staying at this next fall (very expensive, havent figured out that money yet). So, by by halomods.
