Anyway, fixed! Thanks!

can't wait to see people teleport inside their opponents and then finish them off boom race style

Teleporting next to an opponent can be an interesting, very aggresive way to force an opponent out of a good hide (especially if you have higher HP, you can just shoot both worms till they die or teleport away).

Korydex suggested something interesting!

I'm going to leave it up to everyone else who is participating to decide!

Should we add unanchored worms or not? If so, how much retreat time should we have?

Majority opinion wins. Please don't complain or be selfish, just accept this as a fun experiment to try new things! After all it's not intended to replace the League.

My group! Propose the best times suitable for you and I'll probably agree!

I'm generally available any day between 12 noon and 12 midnight GMT.

Post by: TheKomodo on February 27, 2024, 08:24 PM
Immediately after this Cup finishes, I'm going to host another NrBnG but that one will have unanchored worms with 0 retreat!

As a few players have spoke about invading being more annoying and boring, rather than a useful tactic, so having unanchored worms with 0 retreat means you can move away and shoot if someone invades.

However, have to take into consideration that with no rules, people might just walk over and shoot their opponent with LG activated, sooooo there's that to deal with, so may have to sacrifice turn time!

I think the best solution would be maybe 5 or 6 seconds turn time, with extra hotseat time to think of your shot and visualize the angle.

What does everyone think about that?

Also, how are you enjoying the Cup so far? Some wild games!

Literally 2 games live on stream back to back on the first day with 2 players invading while being ahead confidently then getting GG'd lol!

Never had any problems with bng generally, because i can fair play but if someone throws me a 4 sec rolle i give them the same treatment ;D This scheme is actually better coz it's better having no rules than having too many of them (especially when these rules aren't even official, where does it say that someone cannot use rollers in a bng game?)

Group 2 Tiebreaker!

The winner of the matches already played gets 1st turn so:

Kradie Vs xSniperx - xSniperx gets 1st turn.
Kradie Vs kirill470 - Kradie gets 1st turn.
Sniper Vs kirill470 - kirill470 gets 1st turn.


Report your matches by attaching them to this thread please!

I need to ask...

Clearly you read these messages or you wouldn't have even known to play the Tiebreaker.

So why did you guys ignore specifically every instruction?

You didn't report in the right place, and you didn't let kirill470 take first turn.

Sorry, but you're going to have to play again, and kirill470 gets first turn.

It might be an inconvenience, but it's your own fault!

Whoever goes first can change the entire outcome of the future.

I actually feel guilty for this but, I did specifically say and it's not fair on others who play by the rules.

Please be more careful in the future!

Ok so, schaf beat VoK, which means there is a tiebreaker between 01i, VoK and schaf.

VoK and schaf already played their tiebreaker, VoK won.

So if VoK beats 01i, VoK proceeds to the playoffs.

Remaining matches for tiebreaker:

VoK Vs. 01i - VoK gets 1st turn as VoK won the Group Match.

01i Vs. schaf - 01i gets 1st turn as 01i won the Group Match.


It is ABSOLUTELY MANDATORY that you follow 1st turn rules, if you do not, you will have to play again!

Tiebreaker Deadline set for 1 extra week! (This does not include Group Stage, Groups will be proceeded on 19th March).

THOSE WHO DO NOT MAKE A CLEAR EFFORT TO FINISH THEIR GROUP MATCHES WILL BE BANNED FROM THE NEXT EVENT!

Ok, so the Group Stage deadline is over, we're now just waiting for the Group 4 Tiebreaker matches between 01i, VoK and schaf.

Which was posted above anyway.

Great Cup so far, really love this scheme!

Everyone I've asked so far prefers this scheme to the TUS scheme, personally I'd support changing the official TUS scheme to the NrBnG scheme!

Not sure how popular that would be with everyone else, definitely less painful and more welcoming than the current scheme.

Seen zero arguments or fights during matches, only thing I've seen people complain about is not being able to organize some of their matches with other players who don't make as much effort.
