Add your own favorite excuses to the list!
Use them when you next get pwned/rolled/beaten!
Yell it at the victorious team and then ignore them to prove you are the one who really won the match!
Don’t be afraid- everyone is doing it!

-We are tired

-Our monk sucks

-(Skill other team used) needs to be nerfed

-We had a slow loader

-The sun was in my eyes

-We would beat you on the other map

-Don’t you guys know how to use anything but (insert skill other team used- typically blackout, diversion, shame, or blinding surge)?

-We are trying a new build

-We are still tired

-You are running a gimmick build

-We had lag

-I had a phone call

-I used firestorm on accident

-If you hadn’t of interrupted my rebirth we would have won

-Ha! It took you 3 minutes to beat our SoMW spike! You SUCK!

-You guys suck and/or are scrubs (which is totally awesome to say to people that just beat you)

- OMG you guys play that same build every single day.

-We don't care anymore

We're from RA!

Exactly why do you think its important to anyone anyway? 90% of the time we have all chat off anyway so why should anyone respond to your pointless taunts. Taunting is ego boosting for your own self gratification. Not any more intelligent or skill worthy then putting your hands between your legs.

If that doesn't get this pointless thread closed I don't know what will....

Hey.... RA is fun, and doesn't have all the same elitism or taunting that other PvP have. It's fast fun.

RA is just like PvE pugging insomuch as it is all about watching new and exciting ways for your teammates or the opposition to fail (the matches that are the most "intense" are where both teams have crap players running crap builds and it comes down to whether or not you can quickly locate and outperform the one good player on the opposing team). If you enjoy watching others wallow in abject humiliation, then you can say the following about RA:

I know I enjoy the drama...as I keep coming back for more.

Excuses I've used before in TA:

- My wife was talking to me (and broke my concentration)
- Rubber-banded across the map
- We were trying out a new member for the guild

Wow. I didn't mean to twist anyone's underpants tight with this thread. Most of us have heard these excuses several times from teams.

Why did I strike such a nerve Remmeh?

Zui · Dec 05, 2006, 12:19 AM // 00:19

- "Your monk sucks" (This is only said when the loosing team got flawlessed, of course)

Love the SoMW one by the way. It was pretty funny hearing that last night

*Shrug* I thought it was funny.

Kind of sad how painfully accurate it is, though.

Wow.. look at the people all butt-offended by this thread. WTB sense of humor and good sportsmanship!!!

People that are more successful don't make excuses for their losses. They analyze what went wrong and go at it again. Don't accuse someone of being elitist for promoting quality sportsmanship imo.

I personally liked this one from today: "If your ele wasn't blinding me you'd be dead, monk"... No sh!T?

Thanks chase for starting this beautiful thread <3 , but i fear for its future cause of all the hate it's creating xD

Like So · Dec 05, 2006, 03:00 AM // 03:00

-I was afk at the start

-I'm watching tv

-We had 13 wins from RA, it had to end sometime!

-My freaking cat jumped on the keyboard!! Thats the only reason you won!

-$#&%!

-Wow... you guys are good! (my favorite)

Vermilion · Dec 05, 2006, 03:05 AM // 03:05

-We had a pug warrior!

Our sin err7ed, and the next match was OoOo, of course.

TheOneMephisto · Dec 05, 2006, 03:53 AM // 03:53

-We just got a glad point and we didn't want to mess up your run for no reason.

Funny getting this when I know for a fact (friends on other teams ftw) that they were nowhere close to a glad...

remmeh · Dec 05, 2006, 04:01 AM // 04:01

but clearly, the winner is "we're from RA", just because when a team is from RA, it's pretty apparent.

Guillaume De Sonoma · Dec 05, 2006, 04:31 AM // 04:31

I was monking.

which makes it a good excuse, anyways best one was a guild team that used "we were from ra"

We do that a lot when we beat a team and they say "We are from RA" we say: "So are we".

urania · Dec 05, 2006, 09:29 AM // 09:29

if my team loses, it's always cause of my monking, no one ever says "blame our monk" though ;p

as for the RA thing...if you enter in intern distr, you really tend to meet RA teams often.
