Tuning process will be completed in these steps:
1. I'll be doing a recount of leagues points tonight, a bug appeared and messed some of the members points. You can freely continue playing TUS leagues, the recount will start from season 1 to the last game of season 13. During the recount process reporting will be disabled. (It all will take less than an hour)
2. I'll change TUS addresses pattern. Basically we will move to subdomains.
e.g:
www.tus-wa.com/leagues/report/ => leagues.tus-wa.com/report
www.tus-wa.com/forums/profile/MonkeyIsland => profile.tus-wa.com/MonkeyIsland
3. I'll release a 'Files' part on TUS for hosting Worms-Updates/Programs/graves/flags/soundbanks...
4. Dust off challenges and turn its engine on :)
Nice. When's it going to happen though? :)
oh, I'm waiting for challanges! Hope it's gonna be as popular as it was in other leagues :)
Thank you MonkeyIsland. Good luck for coding XD
Nice, I'd participate in some challenges.

Why? Imho, new patterns look uglier.

Hey, I agree, I was wondering why you changes this, it's bad for SEO you know ;) Full one were good !
And for example I was reading a thread, the URL was like https://www.tus-wa.com/forums/tryout
It was actually a thread from TdC tryout board, but couldnt know it =)
Anyway GJ for TUS MI and all the updates you make :-*

Who told you that? Subdomain has higher rank to Google than anything else on the site.
E.g. schemes.tus-wa.com
> www
.tus-wa.com/scheme/
Recounting finished. counted each game from the beginning of TUS one by one.
Also fixed the broken streaks. :)
Since have 2 different opinions about new urls, I'll do the files part now till the addresses decision gets more clear.

I mean google likes when there are "explicite" names on the URL, like tus-wa.com/category-name/page-name
Better than random numbers =) That's why i think if u remove some categories it's less good, but maybe it is not =x
No category is getting deleted. The category-name is being moved to subdomain.
Also note that google do not like too long urls.
I got you solved then ;)
so what's your opinion TenoriTaiga?
cool GJ, anyway i think u dont really care about SEO for TUS since the site popularity mostly comes from WN =)
Try searching for some general worms keywords with google, TUS will be on the top of the list quite many times. :)

Oh, sorry, misunderstanding :) Actually, I really like current patterns (like Doggy said, not random numbers or shit, but clean and nice urls).
:o when did I say about random "numbers or shit"?
The category is moving to subdomain:
www.tus-wa.com/category-name/category-page/
will be
category-name.tus-wa.com/page-name
Where's random numbers there? XD
here are the randoms numbers : 344055656945934593459349535
Lol yeah GJ MI, subdomains actually pwnz !! they pwnz google =)
Nah MI, I don't mean I dislike new version because of random numbers and shit :)
The current url design is more tidy than subdomainal one because you have constant decreasing of site part size there:
tus-wa.com [the whole thing] -> category [lesser] -> page [lesser]
As for my taste, this is better than
category -> tus-wa.com [bigger] -> page [much lesser]
Anyway, it's just my uneducated opinion, nothing of what you should really listen to :)
Other than SEO, I'm trying to dump 'forums' in some urls.
For example,
tus-wa.com/forums/arcade/ will be arcade.tus-wa.com or chess.tus-wa.com.
Forums will be used only for boards and posts on forums, not anything else:
forums.tus-wa.com/bOr as for bOr clan board. forums.tus-wa.com/23-some-topic
Google had cached around 10, 000 pages of TUS. But it dropped it all. It is now around 650.
I'm gonna do a little bit SEO on the urls.
omg Google is a bitch !!
If you want the best SEO result use a sitemap and the google webmaster tools ;)
Thanks for your good work MI, few people realise how much of YOUR time you do invest daily in tus.
Keep your good work :thumbs up:
