Title: Raise the limit
Post by: KinslayeR on April 04, 2023, 03:11 PM
Season just started and me with dibzor reached game limits.  Can this be raised somehow?  I think I already mentioned it couple times before, but mods are kinda blind to see it. 
So I ask again, can u raise the limits? This game is dead enough, why u punish the players who left..  U keep asking what to do with inactivity. Maybe raising limits is good little step to make it

Wrong board? This is the tech support forum for the game itself, and I'm guessing this isn't about the WormNET 3-games-per-5-minutes limit.

No one was blind. The limit was 30 games per season. We raised it to 50. I can double it, but you will reach that limit with dibz again.

the absolute state of TUS league


this is why we need a proper matchmaking service

Yes it's on the way but it's not gonna do magic if the activity is low. I'm hoping it attracts players but a match making system will match Kinslayer and dibz over and over if there are no other options.

I don't know the others, but I'm sure I will play more with a match making system. It's annoying to keep asking people to play. It would be much easier, more fair, balanced, etc. There wouldn't be those situations that the player refuses to play or avoid playing. After the match is found, if the player leaves he can be punished by the system. Of course that at a determined level you already know who you will play on a small community, but I think it would attract people to play, at least the inactive TUS league players. And I hope people keep playing and don't stop just because it was new feature brief enthusiasm.

NO MATCH MAKING SYSTEM !!! JUST NO  :-\


it would force players into playen Elite for example ( good for me! ) but i know the few players well. most of em would not do this!
also u can see that players avoid cups cause of schemes !

plus u can see that in cups we wait weeks for players to arrange their games! how should this work in league ??

no! just let ous few players stay free and play Tus like we love it!
plus Foxhound does not even play rly active : OOOO

I might not be active because I think I dedicated 5 years of my life playing league of legends which has matchmaking system that is quality of life. There I play exactly the opposite I play in WA. I was very competitive player there, most of the games being ranked matches.

Season 2 I played only 10 ranked games but I was considered a silver player
Season 3 I was a gold player
Season 4 Platinum player
Season 5 Diamond player (I reached Diamond IV, my best position as Nautilus Jungle)
Season 6 I ended as Platinum player

Then I stopped playing.

I was also a good Clash Royale player with 4000 trophies and all arenas unlocked on a good clan that had an Italian woman that have children as the leader of the clan that was almost on the competitive max pro level. I was on the average on my clan.

Clash Royale also have matchmaking system

WA is different. I see it as a creativity platform, a sandbox that you can have fun doing and creating whatever you want with people from all countries.

The reason I never played competitively here so much:

1) People who played TUS and other leagues were toxic with me specially because they used to throw up on my schemes when I played with them on AG. You spend hours creating a scheme to people say you are noob.

2) I didn't like many of the TUS schemes. I never liked playing WxW with Oil Drums for example.

3) My experience playing Worm Olympics was being asked to play on other players accounts. The player that asked me to play for him used to win first positions of the overall category. Also I knew many players were cheating on official games. So, I never took WO so seriously.

4) I never took TUS so seriously here exactly because I saw a lot of people trying to earn points playing with noobs and avoiding games with pros, mostly thinking on stats and I think this is not good to a real good competitive system. I never liked to keep asking people to play on AG. I didn't know how to report and all the burocracy, because for me this is boring.

5) You are a guy that is difficult to play. We have a game to play until the end of tomorrow, you are very active, but never answer or say your times to play. It's boring to deal with people that you need to post 10 messages to try to play a match. I get tired of this. I'm not so active because my life is not only WA and I play this game since I was a kid. I get tired of playing, specially because the schemes and stuff I like playing people don't play.

I prefer to create new schemes, new maps and edit the wiki than playing most of the times. And I'm always playing one or two cups at the same time, for a long time.

Pretty much why I don't play WA competitively anymore because for me it's beyond unbalanced.

Too easy to dominate everyone in my strongest/favourite schemes, and get dominated in the schemes I don't care about. Then the schemes in the middle where there are some players around my level but nowhere near enough to make it interesting. Playing the same 4-5 people every day every week every month every year is not my idea of a fun competitive challenge.

There aren't anywhere near enough top players to actually feel like it's a challenge. I don't include the fact I'm rusty and would lose a bunch of games while warming up to reach my peak again as the challenge either.

That's why for the most part I like to focus on just creating events for others and streaming. :)

my initial idea of a match making system would be pools split by schemes

What is the current limit? If the limit was reduced it would force people to look for new opponents and try to pm or discord them to play those players. On blood bowl leagues they only let people play once and it creates an interesting dynamic but rewards activity but not as much as WA! No issues of noob bashing same opponents loads.

If seasons were longer and game limit for playoffs were reduced (maybe 15 instead of 20?) I’d be interested in trying this. Maybe once I maxed out vs same opponents I’d then play them again in another league if I ran out of games.

Certainly think it’s an idea worth exploring!

okioki this is funny how this OFTEN turns out. Kinslayer asked to raise the limits and chicken23 just offers to lower them :)
i have to explain that there are Very few players playen Tus allround activly and it is not that easy to find a match. If the rest of active players
wanna play tus maybe the game limits can be raised so the effort can be coded in the tus history. and players still have the matrix of tus challenge while playen.

this has one disadvantage the old scores of an active and balances tus with many different opponents gets out of order. for example dibs leads the tus allround overall with very big points but maybe mablak was a skilled roper too or some others i do not mention. they just did play 200games or less. while dibs still active like a demon !

the old balance is in trouble anyways and maybe we should prepare tus like its fun for players nowdays !

for TTL it is kind of a bit different. but lower the limits is rly silly if i can play my fav game board less and than have no opponent anymore :S
for example i play sock 15times and yet win 12  ... thats fine but if i just lose 1 game he gets alot of points and i lose alot thats a challenge too!
same for kirill . while the big fishes stuck deadccode and senator rarly play together

dont get me wrong im just trien to say sum creative stuff here i think its fine to raise the limits. truely some players will tune up their win ing ratio in sumthing su real like playen agaist people they win and win avoiding the people they lose. but thats sa personal issue and can be changed

by losen the fear of losen points and discover the brilliance of a game agaist a pro and maybe losen the anger of (at ttl) bad cr8 luck. sure Tel Elite was sumthen different. i didnt lose a round because i got no donkey or aqua sheep to collect 3 holys ... Tel was great ( rest in peace)#


but i do love t17 to after i had some bl im a bit like a dog u put u kicked but maybe i ll cure and start fightn those luckers ;PPPP

Blood Bowl has the luxury of having more people playing as well as an actual working match making system doesn't it?
