Its okay I don't really associate myself with Absalom in anyway either. Although I would say I played their briefly.
If I recall you had said if HAVOC lost you were going to nap break elit anyway for his age 51 nap break on you. It just seems silly for you to call anyone out for how they treated elit when you were in the council channel and promoting it. You even promoted even dirtier play when we thought it was possible they could win when they stole 100m gc from sanc and sent 2 dragons our way in like an hour :p mind you elit decided not to take the chance at it and instead just dragged us down, which was probably a safer bet :D.
I also do not in anyway doubt elits skill. I am just saying a KD that really doesn't need anymore players to crown (AMA) whose only problem is that they are disliked because they do poor diplo / handle situations poorly bringing in a player (proteus) who lead a kd (rage) who should have won 2-3 crowns in the last 5 ages but was unable too because they were disliked/handled situations poorly.
Its like jamming more of the same problem in rather then a resolution.
Personally I have no idea about your job situation but like I said when I joined mercy/havoc I only can really play very inactively except summer due to work. I also have no desire to lead but since we were so lacking in leadership i did for awhile
