Hercules I don't recall what topic I posted my initial post that got deleted (wasn't this one) so it might have been deleted for posting in the wrong topic. It's possible that the post didn't go through in the first place and that it never got posted because of my quite bad internet. Either way,it doesn't matter. I'm not here to accuse the mods of being Nazi's or anything.
Furthermore,I understand the Yugo team wasn't an option back when you decided for the Serbia and Russia merge. At this point it's off the table since Croatia seems to have an adequate team of its own.
The only thing I'm trying to accomplish here is to ask you to re-think the merge for the sake of the rather large Serb community in NW.
So far only 2 Serbs are in the roster for the merge team. I still believe MightyPain has used the fact that he's captain to merge into the Russian team for his own personal benefit and NOT the benefit of his nation and the Serb NW community.
This is further proven to me by a couple of points:
a) The fact that MightyPain used "nationalism" as a way to excuse him from not merging with Ex-Yu nations.
Some people (including him apparently*) might be nationalists and "hate" each other because of their nationalities and wars that happened when they weren't even born,but I'm happy to report that those people are a MINORITY and that most of the community doesn't give a shit about nationalism.
*The reason why It's evident to me that Mighty is in fact a nationalist is the way he responded to me calling him out. Not by giving a thought out response but by instead private messaging me this. And I quote: "Croat you said im bad in melee why dont you play 1v1 and lets see if you can handle me".
I'll let you guys judge that one on your own.
b) MightyPain's general attitude. As seen in the previous point he's highly nationalistic and his level of English seems to be sub-par for someone representing a whole nation in an international competition. He ignores everything RebeliouS and I have said and instead focuses on calling me out for a ft7 which is in no way relevant to the topic at hand. And MOST OF ALL,he appears to only have called one more Serb person to the NWWC team he's Co-Captain of. I know for a fact that the Serb NW community is larger than the Croat one,yet there is currently 2 Serbs in line for a NW team and there is 10+ Croats. I believe Mighty's merge with team Russia has limited the capability of Serb players to enter the competition.
I also believe that he purposely hasn't given much effort into looking for Serb players so he could justify a merge like this.
To concur:
I know that it's too late to change anything at this point,I just wanted to voice my opinion to the general public and try to start a conversation on the topic.
I in NO WAY mean any harm to any of the moderators/organizers of the cup. You guys are amazing for putting so much effort into this competition and you should be the ones getting prizes. I sincerely apologize to any mods who found themselves being offended by my (possibly false) claims of having my comment deleted.
