Had a great match with NGNG during a Twitch event. Didn't know we were on until way after the match, but they thought we were ghosting.

Please, stop. You know who you are.

Ghosting is when you use a stream or some sort of live information against another person and/or team to try and again leverage. NGNG is a MWO Podcast I think. Though with the way these drops work, that would be very difficult.

Aye.

They count down their drops and there are several people they run into all the time.

We dropped on the opposite team, but were unaware of the Twitch event at the time.

@ Wayne... did they think you were ghosting to give their locations or strategies away or something? Im confused as to why they would think you was doing this? Was the team you was on dropping consecutive times against them?

It's too bad really, that they end up playing against the same guys all the time.

Everyone should watch their streams.

Nope. Just one drop, but I watched the stream afterwards and that was the impression I got.

They do a great job and again... Everyone should watch.

Also, death to Dragoons.

PGI is awesome. Played since CB and love the direction of the franchise.

NGNG, great job on the podcasts and twitch events.

IGP keep giving them money. Keep on, Keeping on.

Wayne Waco, OUT!

Killing Dragoons aside, the Duke of Robinson approves this message.

Ngng was on twitch stream... So if i were dropping against ngng, i would watch their stream while playing to get an unfair advantage...

Presumably OP was accused of such but claims otherwise...

I don't approve of the ghosting, but the NGNG guys aren't doing this to, say... stream A.C.E.S.* tournament games. They're doing it because they want to advertise and stream the game and have a good time. So while people ghosting the stream to beat them may be slightly slimy, it's not a huge tournament-breaking thing when it's their weekly stream. Plus, unless you're running with two monitors or in windowed mode it's a little difficult to sync-drop and then stop the stream. At least for me, MWO doesn't alt-tab that gracefully on my end.

Also it hurts when people confuse skill or luck with cheating, but... that's the way of every multiplayer game in the history of ever.

*I know that NGNG is not A.C.E.S. and A.C.E.S. is not NGNG, forgive the generalization. If the hosts were part of another unit that I knew of I would have said that one.
