Post here if you've ever been let down by Limp

One time, Limp promised to make strats for our big match vs. Asmodian's Team, a completely beatable team by the way. Our whole team was looking forward to it, since the prior weeks match was such a fiasco and we now had the presence of our Finnish ally Arzenic. Limp explicitly had told me that Thursday, prior to our big redemption match that he would make strats and captain every map, not only that, but he'd show up early to go over them with anyone who wanted to see the maps.
Then as our hopeful band of miscreants twiddled their thumbs in the lobby of GOS, Limp was nowhere to be found. We waited, and then we waited, but time was getting short and we started to grow concerned. Did something horrible happen to Limp we asked ourselves? How bad could things be, he was still connected to facebook via mobile. We wondered why he wasn't returning mine or Adrenaline's facebook messages, or WWO's phone calls. While it became harder and harder to keep my faith in one of my greatest myth allies, I assured my teammates that he would come through in-spite of their persistent doubts and concerns.
With less than 10 minutes left to prepare, I took over the wheel and made my own strats. Having never even seen two of the maps I had about 2 minutes to look at each mesh. However I didn't reach the last map on the list before being tossed into the ring. My men looked to me for leadership, "where is Limp?" they asked. "We thought he had strats?" Have no fear men, I have made some strats in the last 10 minutes, we may be victorious yet. Alas it was not to be, the all important map was the final map I didn't get time to review, and my unpreparedness was our main weakness as the enemies strategy and unit trade was far superior, I ordered my men into a slaughter and we lost the game and match. In that moment Limps betrayal is what stung worst of all, not the defeat, for I knew we had all played our hearts out.
Having had a viable strategy for that map could've tied the match and sent us into a OT situation. Unfortunately we sat in defeat, not knowing what could've been. Where is Limp? our voices echoed as the enemies spider pack raped our units one by one, he said he was gonna be here. With the teams trust shattered, and some of our best players not caring enough to show or even give reasonable notice. The remnants of the team are forced to carry on, hardened by a lifetime of defeats Boc and Xmas stand strong supported by WWO's apathy.
