    Exactly. Wouldn't you guys in the higher rank rather go to different teams so you at least have some competition? I don't really care if our team is #1, or #100. But I wouldn't want to take the top spot by filling a team with all the top players just to get the spot. Don't get me wrong, each of you guys deserve to be in the top team. But I'd rather see you guys split and fight for it
    I think it still is pretty close either way. Sure, we are ahead but not by all that much. Good ten points.

    Same for me what team I'm in. I had a team with just me an one other, but got a pm to join scorpions so I did that.

    All I meant was that comments as

    "Get rid of the dead weight."

    "And now that we are the #1 team it doesnt look good to have players like that on the team."

    was a bit too serious^^

    Aye, it's just a game. But it's nice to be rewarded with bragging rights when you put a lot of work into kicking *** When I think of spring cleaning for the team, I assume the inactive people will be booted out first. Nothing wrong with getting rid of people who don't even play anymore. Maybe it wouldn't matter if we had an unlimited number of team spots, but since we don't, it seems like a good idea to open some up for people who would like to compete alongside us.

    Also keep in mind that only the top 4 positions count towards the team score. So if everyone in position 5 onwards for each team split off to other teams it would make the competition even more ferocious, without changing any of the existing teams scores.

    All of those not-quite-the-best high scores are just going to waste where they are at the moment.

    no thats not how it works it works by the top 4 positions in the team on every track count to the team score.

    We are number 12 now (our best guy is off to the Air Force so he had to bail I guess), but anyway, we are at number 12 because we tried every day to get better at the game. If tomorrow we fell to 2000 (and we surely will eventually the way this game is selling)... I really wouldn't care. All I wanted to do was make the top 10. If I cared that much our team wouldn't have guys ranked #1725, #4488, and #5981 on it. I don't care how it looks because they are there. They're cool cats that wanted to join. And I offered to help them learn the basic stuff. That's what a team does isn't it?

    Oh wait, I have seen similar behavior with other teams. Professional Football (NFL) and free agents scouting for a Superbowl ring

    I totally agree. Team members should help each other out and learn from each other.

    I am sorry if anybody was upset about my comments or took them too seriously. I know I didnt. It was mainly meant as a joke.

    But I do believe that people who dont even play Trials 2 anymore shouldnt be on the team. Those were the people I was talking about. Not the ones who simply had lower ranks because I agree with you that having some of those is nice because you can help them out. However, I dont agree with having people on the team who dont play at all anymore. There simply is no point.

    We wanted to accept a few new members and we cant because we have a few people who stopped playing. Nothing wrong with that.
