Ks or Teamwork?

Tremulous is a game of cooperation and teamwork. Teamwork such as painsaw rushing, zap rushing, holding a bsuit for a rant and sometimes even granger spitting on the target. However, the leet basilisk has no real need of teamwork, as i usually ass basilisk would kill the enemy and get get killed by an eager dretch or mara. And this is teamwork? I fully goot human in grip, and being its hat at the backsidde corner of his head and hes spamming his shotty around. I do admit i am a bit of a bassywhore, snatching yo' nakeds up', but i do sometimes require assistance like against bsuits or even a flamer.
What im trying to say is without trying to be a showoff, that  i keep getting killstolen by a dretch when i fully got a human in the "deathlock".
Opinions? I sence a heavy wave of disagreeing comming.

I don't like your negative attitude.

Even as a fellow SOBFOBSAD member, I'm inclined to say "Teamwork(tm)".

Players like myself and others who are the most qualified for killing enemies don't complain about killsteals, so no one else should either. Makes people look really fucking stupid.

I complain when the person I am killing gets tk'd.

I complain when it's early on in the match and you take that 1/10th of an evo from me so that I have to go find another human to go mara.

How does an eager dretch kill a basilisk?

my brain > your brain.

When the kill in question is a confused and unarmed human stumbling into the base, and the legitimate owner of said kill is a plump green granger, then yes, i resent the killsteal :(
Larger aliens whoring the easy kills is also rather frustrating.

Teamwork. It should not matter who gets the kills as it's all for the greater good.

Usually, if I am a dretch, I go attack a human that is in grip of a :basilisk: because it is a good thing to bring that hummie down as quickly as possible, I consider this helpin, last but not least because his friends might show up and free him. But if I am a goon or even a rant, i gladly leave the kill to the basilisk, because if his friends show up, I get them, with other words:

raping basi + I am a dretch: helping
raping basi + I am a basi: helping
raping basi + I am a mara: possibly helping, but I'd rather not killsteal
raping basi + I am a goon: no, I'm not gonna killsteal!
raping basi + I am a rant: no, I'm not gonna killsteal!

With other words: it depends on the situation. and even IF there is a raping basilisk, and I am rant, and other humans show up, I might kill that human EVEN IF there is danger of teamkilling the basilisk, if it should happen that that pair of basi+human is blocking something, but in 90% of the cases/a rule of thumb:

bigger than basi = leave basi alone
I have retired from Tremulous. Definetely. If you play a game just because it has become a habit, but u'r only feeling like a kindergarten teacher - well, maybe I am just getting too old (hell, I was a teenager when DukeNukem3D was *new*) - it's probably not a bad idea to just let it be. And I do.

Don't take this personally. Have fun, guys.

Well, id ont think teamwork is nesciarely when youve got a human completely in your grasp, then an eager dretch runs up, gets the last bite. When a KS is a TK,  it just makes me laugh. the thing is, that dretch didnt do anything to help me. He came when i grabbed him, making me get less evos when the dretch just came and bit. Is teamwork running from around the corner and biting a human because its a perfect target? or is it dretchswarming? I do admit i KS sometimes, but as a regular bassy, it angeres me, as i notice it mainly in small maps.
And what angeres me MORE is enemy goon pouncing my off a humans head, then getting shotgunned.
Im going to take an example from a kindergarten book. Im probably off a lot, but i think you guys should remember it.
"the hen was planting the wheat seeds. He asked the other animals for help, but they didnt.
the hen cooked the bread. He asked the other animals for help, but they didnt.
the hen started eating the bread. He asked the animals to help finish the bread, they all said yes, but he refused to give them any because they didnt help make the bread."
and with zybork, i agree with him the most.
But the thing is Creature, i dont care about the share of evos. I just want my name to say i killed someone and then a prompt reply from the killed "You Whore".
AKA "I dont want the money, I just want the glory"
