While I will agree both sides were plagued with their share of "lost souls", the German team came out swinging and toppled two bases immediately, leaving the R1 for the final blow. Russian team did well to find their way to the other side of the map, let alone bring a base down. The only bragging being done here is how the Russians were able to salvage a win against those kinda odds, and not necessarily any acknowledgement of outstanding gameplay to achieve that win. Quite frankly, it was a concentrated effort of two or three that got it done (as noted by Rommel) as is the case, I'm sure, with the German side as well. For that, the Russian team can brag a little.
I'm glad to see your opinion of your teammates remains high and you are filled with praises for them. I'm certain they look upon you as a great leader of men and you have their respect and admiration. Your self sacrifice in the line of duty is noted, however, I believe it went, for the most part unnoticed - sorry. As for team stacking, well, I've played many a match in which the opposing side was stacked with lots of talented players wearing and not wearing tags. I took my beating, offered end game congrats and chalked it up to "you can't win em all", never once bringing it past that experience to shed a tear about it in the forums, or anywhere else for that matter.
In closing, as always, it has been good talking with you and I appreciate the opportunity to have shared our different viewpoints of this event. Again, I offer congratulations and welcome into the {MOB} family and I hope you have a great day sir!
