Consistency in TTRR

[Kaleu]

Great post Ryan, thanks for taking your time to write such big post to help me, I'll follow your tips.

you dont like me do you ANO ? you missed what I was saying, I had an old kb for years and learnt to rope as good as a could with it, and now I have a new one and everything is much more simple and can do anything on this KB that would be pretty much impossible on the old kb.

So I was saying Ive wasted years of practice on a bad kb which I could have picked up in a few weeks on this one.

[ANO]

No, I like you... I admit I didn't read until the end your post, it was something I wanted to say in any case and which is true. Everyone should adapt their kb if they know how to do. And no one should consider this cheating.

I tryed for so long to learn wizard and warlock but could only do it if I had enough speed and right momentum. This new kb does them 1st go every time feels great.

Everyone should adapt their kb if they know how to do. And no one should consider this cheating.

I do kind of consider it borderline cheating though, it's a ridiculous advantage, the reason why is because not everyone is comfortable with ruining their warranty on a hardware product, let alone simply ruining the product...

If it was something everyone could do very easily, without such a risk, and if it all went wrong to easily revert back to original status, i'd be happy with it.

It shouldn't be allowed imo because less than 2% of players are technically skilled enough to actually do it without damaging their product etc...


Even though that's my opinion, overall I don't care though cuz I don't even like Classic League haha.

let's make things ilegal based on their accesibility

great argumentation Komodo!

Everything has to be adapted to our needs in life... Your car, your clothes, your electric sockets.. etc.. When it comes to races and competition I think that it is even more obvious. Human beings are unique while Keyboards are not, but you can change them to adapt to your uniqueness.
If you are not able to do that or you don't want to risk to lose your warranty... well, I don't find this a valid argumentation for ones who want to be at top level.

And if a guy can adapt a 10 dollars kb to be efficient and kick asses around, all I can say it's:
"Good job man, you have just proved why you are the best".
And to all the rest of wormers who always claim about not having the best kb to be at the top you can imagine what I could say.

Considering Classic League now gives out money as a prize, I think it's a perfectly fine opinion/arguement.

Shouldn't even have to modify hardware to be the best, it's pretty silly...

[Kangaroo]

ANO`s tips for Consistency in Life.

[TheKomodo]

To kind elaborate on what I said about not being able to modify hardware...

If you are playing for fun, fine, do whatever you want, but when you are competing on a competitive level, especially when there is money involved, there should be a standard players should be forced to use, I know it can't ever be implemented in Worms Armageddon, simply because we cannot possibly monitor everyone who competes, but my personal belief is that you shouldn't be allowed to mod your equipment when others can't.

Some players are too young to even know how to do that stuff, it's dangerous to them, or their parents would discipline them, what's your excuse for them??

Personally, if I was hosting a cash prize event, I would ban players like Mablak, Anubis, etc because I know they MOD their equipment.

And that would be unfair, because others could be guilty too, so i'd probably end up not even doing it lol

Is why everyone should play a larger variety of schemes and show more skill alll across the board. There are many players who stick to their normal comfort zones and decide thats all they want from worms. Some players just rope and others only certain schemes such as being pro at roper but not being able to wxw or like and alot of others only play intermediate.

People forget that worms is fully customizable game and majority of schemes where just made up by other wormers. I didnt event Hys,wxw,ttrr,roper,t17 ect ect but I ended up playing them most because of everyone else was.

My favourite way to play worms is 1v1v1v1v1v1 in a battle race or the average classic league schemes but with differant weapons and powers ect.

No way Komo.

1: some kids have rich and dumb parents who can afford for 200 dollars keyboards and it's not a problem to give this amount to their kids for a damned keyboard; while some kids have not this kind of parents and they just have a 10 dollars kb. They compete in the same league.. Now, I don't even think I need to ask you if that is fair or not.

2: In races people customize motorbikes, bikes, car etc... And in a worms league where not everyone can afford top mechanical kbs, I don't see the problem in adding some piece of papers or remove couple of components to your kb.. because this is what is Modding in worms...

I am scared you believe that the kb makes the player when it's the player who changes the kb and makes a kb work. If you love roping and spend hours and days in learning and practicing, you absolutely need to adapt that kb to your fingers, style etc... Especially if you have a cheap one.

[TheKomodo]

ANO, I became one of the best ropers in warmers of all time, and I never once had to MOD a keyboard.

As far as I am concerned, I was genuine, players like Mablak & Anubis aren't genuine, I will never be able to trust them.

Yes, some kids parents can afford hundreds of dollars, SOME, my parents would never buy me stuff like this and I live in a place much better off than many countries around the world.

The point I was making wasn't just about being able to afford it, it's a moral principle too.

[ANO]

I hope your parents don't buy stuff to you anymore at your age! 

You were not a best ttrr guy, this topic is about ttrr.

Maybe your background is much different from mine and you can't understand... For me customize things is a routine and I am quite shocked it isn't for you.

As morale principle you are even more wrong:

How can you be honest with you thinking that 2 guys one with a 10USD Kb and one with a 200USD one are playing in the same league and the poor guy can't feel comfortable in playing his favorite scheme with that shit!?

Moral??? Go to guys who do races and tell them to not modify their bikes, to buy the one that  they can afford from a shop and to compete with the others.

[TheKomodo]

Nah theres no point we're totally not on the same page lol.
