One of my favorite things you can say to me after I beat you in a round of Clan Arena is "whoops." As if, somehow, you only hadn't made that elementary mistake of eating a double mid-air rocket, that round would have gone completely differently. RA3 players in the Qlive beta seem afflicted with an inability to admit when they are bested, often with hilarious results. The resulting RA3GE, as I like to call it, is often unintentionally some of the most hilarious stuff you will ever read.

One recent tragicomic case involved a player who would refer to everyone on the server as "meat", spewing such classic one liners as "THERES A LOT OF MEAT ON HERE TODAY LOL" and "Take it easy, meat!" Only when it became painfully apparent that the player in question was in fact "meat" to the two players who had just joined the server, did the story change. "I can't aim today, lol" and "My team sucks lol" were the excuses that rang out after every soul crushing defeat at the hands of actual good players.

So yes, "whoops" is right, as in "whoops I'm a fucking newbie who isn't even close to as good as I thought I was" or, "whoops, I got raped the fuck up, again" or, "whoops, I can't help but be destroyed by you every round". Then yes, whoops.

Whoops.
