Subject: Practice on 2/6 2/8 2/10

Keep on truckin ,

Ok ,back on topic.
Here are some things to keep in mind for practices.
Check you pissy attitude at the door. Once you hit vent I expect to hear a upbeat and positive attitude. If It is anything different you will be asked to leave.
Don't drag your feet, when your asked to do something, do it. Don't delay. Remember your not just wasting your time, your wasting everyones.
Save yourself a lot of time and add “cl_restrict_server_commands 0”to your userconfig.cfg before we start.
There will be absolutely NO disrespectful actions to ANYONE. This has not been much of a problem towards clan members. I am more concerned with our appearance to others. I do not care what is being said or how much corpse abuse is happening. There will be ZERO TOLERANCE for any eXg member(s) that acts disrespectfully in a game. This includes using message mode 1 ( global chat), Talking over in game voice, and especially corpse abuse. Weather you believe it or not this is a professional organization and we will conduct ourselves as such.
Pub stars, STAY AT HOME. Your not welcome here. I don't want hear about how great your are in some pub. I don't want hear about your K/D ratio. I don't want hear you talking bad about other players ( our team or otherwise). Don't ignore instructions and go out on your own. If any of that behavior happens, your gone. No questions asked. I don't care if you didn't like a call and you went on to ace the entire team and win the game, if your not a team player your not playing with this team.
Follow all instructions, if your not clear please make it know the whomever is leading. If your told to do something that you just flat out don't like, do it anyway. If you feedback is wanted on something you will be asked for it.
Clan Tag usage. I realize this is a potential argument waiting to erupt. so It's gonna be stated here and up front, there will be NO debate after this. There has never been strictly enforce rules about tag usage or format. But here are the guide lines for eXg. CS:S:
A tag MUST be worn by ALL active eXg members. The most common format has been: eXg. This has more or less been the clan standard since inception day. I understand the previous CS:S brought about there own special tag. I understand there reasons for doing this and it will be acceptable to use it. But, I will give my own thoughts on its usage. We are a clan. We are all the same. From the “best” to the “worst”, from the “Active” to the “MIA”. I find there is absolutely no reason to define ourselves as better, worse, or different in any way then any other member of the clan. I myself will choose to use the standard “eXg.” as I have since the day eXg was born. No player/member will tell another player/member how to use his or her tag besides myself or any of the three leaders. And there should never be a reason to do so. Do not put us in that position.
I have 100% control over this team's roster and how its handled. That being said, you may find yourself playing with someone whom your not particularly fond of. Leave the bad blood out of this. I don't care if two people are the bitterest of enemy's, if they accept a position on this team they will respect one and other and be polite. Respect for one another is a crucial part of team work. If any actions are taken against another player, weather they be verbal/physical or other they will be seen as a direct attempt to undermine this team and will be treated as such.
Just because you in the clan does not give you any “right” to a spot on the roster. If I find a player unfit they will not be considered. Please also remember I will be posting open positions on not only our forums but CAL/TWL/OGL etc forums. All players interested in a spot have the same opportunity for it.
Be prepared to wait patiently! We may have anywhere from 5-25 players waiting to play. There is no guarantee of playtime. If you are not in one of the 5 play spots you are expected to not wander from vent and be an active listener. You may be called on at anytime and if you don't immediately respond you may miss your play opportunity.
If you have any questions or concerns please contact my directly.

I look forward to seeing you all in the next few weeks of pratice!

Remember above all to have fun. This may all seem like a lot for a CS:S team tryout, but its not as bad as it may sound
