ReportIt's been a while since we've had a match that suffered from lengthy delays in getting qizmo sorted out, thankfully things were back to normal for this game with a couple of players on each team having to make some adjustments. Once everyone was ready it was good to see that the pings were pretty even considering the problems with the BPA-Optus link. iC didn't waste any time when it came to getting hold of dm3 thanks to Def making YA his home right from the start. From there Shad (not the one from IPGN btw) was able to start running quads which allowed the other iC players to make themselves comfortable elsewhere. Adder had a similar role to Def as he stayed at RA for most of the map which meant Shad and Teflon had plenty of options when it came to tanking up. To make things worse for List, Aircon timed out with less than 4 minutes to go but with the scores being 158 - 26 in iC's favour there was little chance that List would have been able to make a comeback even with Aircon present. He returned a minute or so later as iC wrapped up the first map.

Round 2 - Wart
E1M2 - Castle of the Damned (list of the twisted's choice)

ReportThis looked as if it would follow the same trend as dm3 where iC got in front early and ran away with the game...but List came back and kept things close. Sycochild was doing the damage for List by grabbing a quad or two, and soon his teammates joined in the fragging. After 7 minutes the match was in the balance and both teams had control of separate areas, iC had YA and List had mega, but things were about to fall iC's way. Aircon seemed to have a recurrence of his problem on dm3 and he ended up timing out with iC leading 45 - 44. He got back into the server soon after but List seemed to have run out of steam. From then on iC were able to control the whole map and came away with another win.
