Re: Elitist Teams

To see an uncomfortable situation, become a lesson to learn for those that are reading this is great.

From hearing Adam address the situation, he isnt blaming the other team, nor directly saying its entirely their fault. Its just a miscommunication on both parties. He accepts responsibility for his team in terms of making sure they address it and handling it in a professional way.
I agree with others that Adam and HOT are approachable, and outright down to earth.

As for Chris, I think he is right on!
Its not demeaning in any way for yelling to occur. Teams are passionate about themselves, their alliance, and how they specifically want to contribute. In a game where the music is loud, the crowd is cheering and the drive teams are excited, emotions play a huge part and so is yelling, without being a jerk.
