Finished


Description:


Rules: (Copyright: Philie  ;))
-AWTRW (attack with the right weapon): the next 1 on the weapon table. Start with bazooka, then homing missile, then mortar, and so on. When all weapons, from f1 to f11 are finished, players finish the game by using patsy's every turn.
-AET (attack every turn): you NEED to use the next weapon, even if you can't do damage. Falls, plops, timeouts, skips etc. are cows if you failed to use a weapon.

What happens if someone cows?
-> the other player is now allowed to use the patsy magic bullet OR he can continue with his next weapon (if he feels that gives him more of an advantage). The player that cowed (didn't use the right weapon, or used no weapon at all) uses the weapon that he skipped next turn and continues finishing his 'rows' as normal after that.

NB: sometimes there's a delay bug with mortar. if this happens, just skip 1 round.

Set up:
Each players starts with 3 teams of 8 worms. (so 24 worms vs 24 worms)
Play on BIG maps. BIG shopper maps, kill the king maps or mnp maps are best suited.
For example, search maps on WMDB with feature size BIG: http://www.wmdb.org/maps/?map[feature_size]=-2 (alas can't get this link to work, copy paste the url ;))
Or use one of the maps of the Rowy WO tourneys:

http://2012.wormolympics.com/tournaments/show/757?maps=1#results
http://2011.wormolympics.com/tournaments/show/518?maps=1#results
Try to find ones that are elaborate and seem fun  ;)

All games are bo1.

Update:
Regarding girders: blocking of worms is not allowed. The worm must be able to walk/jump out.
Regarding bungee: must use it if you can, if you really can't (and other player agree that you can't) you can skip your turn.

Rowy cup pairings are up  ;)
https://www.tus-wa.com/cups/cup-555/
Deadline for the 1st week is 2 weeks as usual.

Rule Update:
-Regarding girders: blocking of worms is not allowed. The worm must be able to walk/jump out.
-Regarding bungee: must use it if you can, if you really can't (and other player agree that you can't) you can skip your turn.

Sorry about this. Any games that were already played still stand though, whether there was a girder or bungee-cow in it or not.
Take it into account for next games plz.



I'm happy you sent that personal message at least. I think you should have tested the anti-updated, stolen, raped and uploaded scheme from philie before opening a cup with it.

After over two years I thought it is time to share Rowy and finally write down the necessary words.

Please read them here (it also tells the history and how you have to fix this bugged RowyRemix here (if you don't want to fix the RowyRemix which you want to play here, then change the wrong rules at least and put 2 teams instead of 3 teams (please read the Addition at my url, too))): https://www.tus-wa.com/schemes/scheme-946/



HHC

I thought philie made it dennis, so naturally I went with his new scheme.
And it's good IMO. The girders are a nice addition if you dont block worms with it, you can build yourself a nice hide. Same goes for bungee.

It's a good scheme, just needed those extra 2 rules.

DENnis

The worst thing is not even that his scheme is clumsy and bugged without a lot of fixes, the worst thing is the name faking and playing this wrong named cup with a wrong named scheme.

You called this cup Rowy (I know philie caused the faking by calling his RowyRemix Rowy, too) but you say it is forbidden to use the scheme which is called Rowy and that is really silly. It kills a lot of fun to play with a bugged scheme and let Rowy look bad! It isn't even an updated scheme, because it is actually the opposite!

It would be ok if you rename it to RowyRemix, Full-Rowy or Rowy-All!

It is correct that with several extra rules it could work with some luck and that it can be fun if you are lucky and can swing with the bungee and do a nice fly to better hide for example, but that luck that you could use bungee so nice will almost never happen. The heights distance for a good working bungee has a small tolerance so you will mainly have to skip and lose several turns, plop a worm or avoid 2 main rules!


There actually has to be 4 more rules added:

1) Skip a turn if you can't use bungee if it is not possible isn't enough because the next turn you will have to use bungee again and so on which would probably cause a lot of skipped and lost turns and to lose because of bad luck kills too much fun. I'm sorry but the RowyRemix has much more contras than pros.

2) If you can't use bungee at first try (it could happen that you could never use bungee and end in a skiprace) then you have to tell an extra rule to the extra rule: Not only skip 1 turn, skip the whole weapon!

3) 2 Teams instead of 3 Teams or fix the delay-bug if you want to change the main Rowy rules, too and keep playing with 3 teams! 3 Teams would be ok after a schemefix because then you could attack more often.

4) No 100% blocking with girders.
