Robby, 28, Sweden.

I'm back on the market.

I always notify my future absence as early as possible.

This is a bit ballsy, I can only speak for onFire, but you haven't played with us nor did we ask you to play for us, you tried out and it didn't work. Don't remember why. I know you are trying to sell yourself so I guess whatever goes. However I am keen on trying you out again, people and skill change and onFire needs 1 more.

Hello Vindaloo. Are you feeling insulted from me listing you? ;) I'm sure as hell not trying to sell myself with false advertisement on purpose.

Are you sure you haven't confused me with someone else? I replied to your recruitment message from many months ago very recently because i had already joined Wonga at that time. I'm pretty sure i never even tried out for you because i fondly remember that there was one team i really wanted to try out for but couldn't because i just joined Wonga, and i'm pretty sure OnFire was the last team that asked me. I don't clearly remember playing with the guys on your roster. Though i've been asked to join many teams that didn't work out due to social reasons, so i could be the one being confused. Been a lot of jumping before i joined Wonga and i don't even remember the names of half the teams. OnFire i only remember because it was the most recent.

Anyhow, being asked to "try out" is as much an honor as being asked to join in my book as i assume that people only ask someone to do so if they know they are speaking the truth, as in; have seen them play already. You don't ask someone to try out unless you're interested in them. I write OnFire down as a tribute, not as a brag. As i recall most people only came to me after i played a gather or pcw with them, and very few of those teams asked me to try out first; most asked me to just flat-out join them. It gets a bit hazy with whom asked what of me after the 15th team. I wouldn't ask someone to neither join nor try out for my team unless i've seen them play already, so i assume the same about others. Especially the higher teams and especially when they lack only one member. I will of course remove OnFire from the list since you so clearly don't consider asking someone to try out the same as asking them to join.

I'm not asking anyone to just take my word for it. I'm more or less only creating this topic to let people know that i'm available again as i'm pretty sure most people in the higher divisions know me by now anyway, which is why i skipped my very long presentation that i wrote the first time i advertised myself here. I have no deceit in my intentions whatsoever.

Ye guess you are right, we might have actually never played together, that's why i don't remember why it didn't "work out". But yes, asking someone to try for us, is nothing like asking someone to join. I am willing to try people I know nothing about but what they say about themselves. If they say they are skilled and can keep up, I try them. If it doesn't work it doesn't. It can take easily few PCWs before the decision is made.

In past we were desperate for players so we could do S4 and some tryouts were shorted to have people on the roster, which later we found out are not compatible with our team spirit and had to let them go. I am not gonna repeat that mistake, ever.

I'll catch you on steam and let's work something out.

@skyice, do you want to have robby take your position and you try for onFire? ^^

I have been very active. I'm not sure what you mean. I can play every day unless acute unforeseen consequences occur.

I'm back on the market. Not having competed in anything for over a year i feel like i've got some room for more of this seemingly everlasting drug. I'm not much to write home about, but i'm willing to learn any alien life-form and even command if the team can handle a fresh-starter.

My time will also be more limited. I always notify my future absence as early as possible.

Ha! You're right; it's almost like a revival. I don't think i'm good enough to play with them, however. What didn't work before probably won't work now!
