Anyone who attended either regional can probably agree with me, even though I didnt hear anyone mention it from KSC, it probably happened.

The silence after a bad match.

When things were 2 on 2, there was always someone cheering....this time, the silence was deafening when everyone knew that the match didnt go well. I felt that this was worse than losing (when you were 2 on 2) because you dont have a win/loss at the end of a match, you just have a number. There is no "Yeah, we lost, but we'll win the next one!", there is just "Yup, we need a better number next time", which sounds more stressful than hopeful.

This doesnt mean I don't like the game, I find it quite intriguing, as Ive said before...I just dont like the silence at all, and if there was a way to change the game next year so that it didnt happen, I would be totally grateful.
