We are those dedicated to maintaining the small, drifting playerbases of (sometimes obscure, sometimes dead) engineering-related games by pouring them into a single general.
Then arguing about what the hell is meant by 'engineering' in this context.

Have you been blessed by the presence of CLANG today?

History

In The Beginning...

When first formed in VGL 8, the team was entirely Eggman because there were no other aesthetics and we dropped out after a mediocre qualifying group performance. With little remaining interest, we lowered it into the grave.

VGL 12 to 15 - Rebirth & The Curse

The will of The Omnissiah compelled us to try again many years later, and a resurrected /egg/ (now with actual models) managed to autopilot all the way through to 7th place in VGL 12 with the power of broken physics.
What followed was a rollercoaster ride of results with a dramatic fall to 40th place in VGL 13 after a horrible group stage, riding a meme train of 17 CBs all the way back up to joint 7th with /domg/ for VGL 14, then failing to leave the group stage with 2 losses once again in VGL 15. The team had gained the curse (...or blessing, maybe?) of a cycle between failure and success, even going as far as identical results: exiting the group stage on odd-numbered leagues, followed by only losing to the champions in quarterfinals - even as far as drawing & winning the same number of matches during even leagues. However...

VGL 16 to 18 - The Curse Wavers

VGL 16's /akg/ match weakened the cycle with the team losing earlier than usual to one that did not survive the final game. The eggs were no longer balanced. VGL 17 continued to buck the trend by letting us escape the clutches of Group D for a rematch (note: unsuccessful) against /drg/. VGL 18 finally ended the cycle - an even league with the literal worst group showing we'd ever had.

VGL 19 onwards - The Heresy Arc

VGL 19's horrific spaghetti performance cemented the Omnissiah's abandonment of /egg/.
It was time... to make our own tactics.

In the VGL X-2 Qualifiers, the managing began. Poorly. The game against /bag/ failed miserably, then got even worse against /uma/. Suddenly, an Anon in the thread revealed that he had actually played PES before. Some timely advice on his end turned things around so fast that /wtg/ suffered a surprise defeat, preventing total humiliation on our end. Someone who's played the game before knows how it works? Shocking, I know.
Sadly, this wasn't enough to keep us in the running for that league.

VGL 21 started off strong and finally dragged us off the bottom of the pile, but sadly some tactical jokery and medal-benching tomfoolery couldn't get us out of groups (especially against /vgt/, good lord they wiped the floor with everyone) so we had to settle for King of the Qualies.

Info

REMOVE MANAGER remove manager you are worst manager. you are the manager idiot you are the manager smell.
Note from the caretaker: This team is eternally on autopilot because none of us understand divegrass, so if anyone wants to take the reins for tactics then look for me in Discord (or just yell in the thread).
I'd try them myself but >implying I play PES, and trusting an """AI""" fits our theme

We management now.

Meet The Starters

The big boys up front, forging a path forwards of scientific discovery. Very slowly. They're not actually trying to, they just want to blow things up faster.

Eggman Sonic The Hedgehog franchise	#1 (Captain)
	"I've come to make an announcement: Shadow the Hedgehog's a bitch ass motherfucker. He pissed on my fucking wife. That's right, he took his hedgehog fucking quilly dick out and he pissed on my fucking wife and he said his dick was "this big" and I said "that's disgusting". So I'm making a callout post on my twitter dot com: Shadow the Hedgehog, you got a small dick, its the size of this walnut except way smaller. And guess what? Here's what my dong looks like. That's right baby, all point, no quills, no pillows, look at that it looks like two balls and a bong. He fucked my wife so guess what? I'm gonna fuck the Earth. That's right this is what you get, MY SUPER LASER PISS. Except I'm not pissing on the Earth, I'm gonna go higher, I'M PISSING ON THE MOON. HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT OBAMA, I PISSED ON THE MOON YOU IDIOT! You have twenty-three hours before the piss drop-el-ets hit the fucking Earth, now get out of my fucking sight, before I piss on you too."

Mechanically Engineered Autism Most /egg/s	#21
	It may look like incomprehensible spaghetti to you (...and its creator) but it runs at 100% efficiency and any changes you make will probably make it stop working so, please, don't touch it.

CLANG H̸͕̮E͕̗̱̠ͅ ̛͓̫͙̖C͖̪̪̣̼O̞͟M̭̥̻͚̘Ḛ͖̼͍́S̨̹̰̫̮͖͚͇	#23
	You are building your ship, when you hear the distant sound of metal on metal. As the sound creeps closer, you cry, for you know what will come. All you can do is pray that he does not take you.

Chaos Engine Besiege	#19
	The nearest thing to >harnessing CLANG that's ever existed. A highly unsafe device born during the height of /v/'s foray into the mechanics of Besiege, it consists of a flaming ball attached to multiple sawblades. This baby can produce enough torque to tear apart any vehicle.

Thomasformer Machinecraft	#20
	All the way from the Isle of Sodor, the brainchild of a madman and a bangin' battlehorn by the Vengaboys, give it up for ya boi MOTHERFUCKING THOMASFORMERRRRRRRRRRR

The Chad Stormworks Player Stormworks	#5
	Look at this motherfucker. He can make a plane with less material than the average Ikea cabinet that somehow takes off with the acceleration of a rocket booster. Suck it Elon you Apartheid faggot THIS guy's gonna be the first to Mars, and he won't even be using a fucking spacesuit

>Physician Robocraft	#6
	"Dude I don't want to do physics and maths to play this shit, I'm not a fucking physician, I just want to fucking play lego robots. Fuck off with your boring school crap." - Lost child, /rcg/ c. 2014

Jebediah "Motherfucking" Kerman Kerbal Space Program	#10
	The madman of Kerbin himself. On loan from  /kspg/ while they decide if they're alive or not, this guy has no sense of fear and an addiction for adrenaline. For most KSP players he's dead by their third mission.

SPIDERTRON Factorio	#11
	God damn look at those legs

FAILURE Infinifactory	#12
	The remains of some poor schmuck who was unwittingly placed in a position they were clearly not qualified for.

Landing Gear On Rotors On Pistons Space Engineers	#22
	Shaking hands with danger to achieve strange goals during the construction of mining vehicles. Combinations of moving parts that are questionably safe at best and deadly at worst.

Meet The Benchwarmers

Just as good (usually) as the main lads, but they do feel a bit underappreciated sometimes.

EARLY ACCESS SANDBOX GAME Steam Early Access	#2
	Alright, so you're making a game. You've got the physics down. The blocks, items and player models are all up and running. You think the multiplayer might even function! It's time to put it on the store to let people have an early look at your dream child. ...content? What the fuck is 'content'?

Gas The Marek Keen Code House	#3
	The smug-faced bastard at the root of all (most of?) the stupid decisions behind the clunky mess that is Space Engineers, and other failed experiments like Medieval Engineers and Keen's AI bullshit. Development? Nah, spend the budget on a fucking mansion. Either a bumbling idiot or a genius exit scammer.

aeiou aeiou?	#4
	aeiou!

Square-chan Robocraft	#7
	Formerly known as Robokek, it was decided that the poster girl for meta- shitpost-shipbuilding should be named for herself rather than the long-dead game she originally represented. Arguably BobdaBiscuit's most famous creation before Thomasformer (yes, the madman made both).

>Structural Integrity Highly subjective	#8
	We appreciate the sentiment, but it's more of an afterthought when you're going for efficiency.

John Madden John Madden Football (video game series)	#nine nine nine, nine n
	Football!

BLUE, HURT An insane Finnish man	#13
	It's a robot that uses artificial neurons to simulate pain. Of course it was made by a Finn.

Nick "Unification" Smart From The Depths	#14
	Clearly, the best way to improve a game is to remove mechanics by mashing them together into something easier for the plebs to comprehend. What a smart dev.

Godforsaken Astronaut Randy Regier	#15
	A representative for all the poor bastards lost to unscheduled re-entries and the void of space.

Anataeus Vaya Opus Magnum	#16
	The autistic alchemist. He just wants to make compounds in peace, kindly stop bothering him and let him continue with his work.

Turrents Factorio	#17
	The unsung hero of xenophobic expansionism. Remember to keep the ammo topped up! Yes that's how it's spelled, stop asking.

DAKKA WAAAGH	#Ayteen
	Dis greenboi's gotta lotta gunz, and 'e's not afraid ta use 'em. EVERYFIN needs more dakka ya filfy grot.

Meet The Rejects

The players voted out for various reasons - not relevant any more, not quite popular enough, or just plain dumb.

RIP SERB Space Engineers	-7st
	The utterance of every player when a server finally decides it can't handle the strain of whatever batshit, CPU-consuming monstrosities are being built within its confines. Survived the last roster poll for a fleeting second, until we were reminded that Eggman is always on the team so we'd miscounted the slots. Subsequently, the Omnissiah said "lolno" and pushed him off the bottom of the list.

SHINY AND CHROME WITNESS MEEEE	-6rd
	The warcry of all those who wish to be WITNESSED as their mortal bodies succumb to the forces of high-speed shenanigans.

M1 Bradley Pentagon Wars	-5st
	The unfortunate bastard child of higher-ups meddling with the design of what was ostensibly a troop carrier - now an amphibious masterpiece of an over 10-foot-high scout vehicle with infantry weapon portholes, an AA cannon, anti-tank missiles, a budget of $14 billion, over a decade of development... and no room for carrying troops. At least, that's if you believe Col. James Burton. He's a bit of a fibber.

Satisfactory ...Satisfactory	-4rd
	Voted in as /egg/ enough for a new player yet voted out in the final poll for not being good enough. Kind of like the game, really.

Lemonhulk Space Engineers	-3st
	"Space hulk". A term describing a vast, asymmetrical spaceship created from the remains of smaller, derelict ships (functioning or otherwise) grafted onto one another. Ugly, yet strangely beautiful. Created back when /seg/ and /svgg/-posters still flew the Warbros banner, her form was purely for function in raids against the unwitting Argentinian denizens of some public server they descended on to colonise for their own. The lemon-coated creation was tragically from an era before any of us considered saving her as a blueprint for future generations. As such, her glorious yellow figure was never able to be truly represented on the pitch. Rest In Peace, Space Princess.

KEEEEEEEEN Keen Code House	-2st
	The exasperated call of an engie suffering from the shitty Keencode in a game that could have been so much more. For correct enunciation, think Kirk.

BLANEDS Space Engineers	-1rdn't
	Planets got added after years of delays, and they were as mediocre as people should have expected. Got the least votes by far in popularity polls. Shit mechanic, dead meme.
