I still think we should set up a poll so we can all vote on something to be done. It seems like people actually want some kind of change. Although change isn't always a good thing..... you know the saying, if it ain't broke... don't fix it... but that's why I'm just seeing if a rope league can be added into the side of things so the TUS Classic scene stays how it already is but it just branches out for the ropers who still play... I wouldn't even mind offering to pay for a prize pool for the ropers like spleen mentioned, I'd help contribute with that.
I think it would be pretty neat and possibly keep some wormers to stick around... I know when I stopped playing in Season 47-48 (shit, I've been registered to TUS since 2009 and I first started being active playing games in I think Season 45?) it was mainly because I was tired of opponents not wanting to play rope schemes and always picking ground, or I wouldn't even get any points off beating someone in rope... But I also stopped playing due to inactivity with work, etc... which in April I will start to become less active as I have been this month of March, hence why I think a rope league that is just for fun and doesn't mean anything (point wise etc) is a great idea so people who can't play that much or don't have the time can just come on and still play a game or 2 competitively of a scheme they like.
