A little history on OCG for you

Since CF is newer than the other games to them ~~~

They came to AVA and right off the bat the known tournament admins questioned them. They run pugs for AVA but don't really know the game to give it a great ruleset. Their AC doesn't leave temp files and it shows up a virus. People have had their accounts hacked, but evan talked to the GM and they decided it was a user named wayzata's fault, that he had posted an injector on a hacking site then hacked the players. This is a doubtful story, due to the intelligence of the people blamed.

Overall the community doubted them, but then they came out with a tournament for AVA that was supposed to have in total over $2,000 of in game cash, 5 $400 GPU's, T-Shirts, vent servers, limited-rare items, and such. Well a few days later then released a statement saying they had "accidentally" added a 0 to the end of the prize pool so it was in total more like $100 of in game items, not the over $2,000 said originally. With the previous doubt this just made OCG's name a joke. Everyone was doubting their prizes before, and now if you even mentioned the GPU's you would look like a fool.

Well turns out the GPU's were fake as well, they said they were "conned" by the GPU company. Logically, why would they spend the time to scam a no-name organization? I really doubt they did this. After this OCG is basically a joke to every competitive AVA player, I mean we will still play the OCG league games, but everyone doubts anything that they say now.


Another interesting fact you can appreciate: OCG has claimed before that AVA servers going down (aeria is terrible) was because of DDOS (doubt it) and claimed they get DDOS'd so often that half of the promised PUGS or events are cancelled due to "OCG being DDOS" or "AVA being DDOS'd". AVA servers have gone down much more since OCG has came around. I almost question if they don't DDOS AVA just so they don't have to run events sometimes.


Anyway here are some threads from the ava forums showing their love for OCG:

Anyway just a warning from one competitive community to another.
