Title: Worms Armageddon Teletext Service
Post by: Ytrojan on October 15, 2015, 02:35 AM

I think that Worms Armageddon should have a teletext service (kind of like Ceefax) on each channel. That way, more information could be given to viewers without having to leave the Worms Armageddon menu, thus saving time in the long run. There could also be a way to put the teletext service on while you are spectating a game. No information about the magazines yet, but I'll get to each of them in separate posts over the following few weeks.

Phillie was a bit rude, but yeah, idea is not so good. Main reason is that teletext service died few years ago, even on tv :)

Keep on trying tho. Implements should be something new and fresh, look in that direction next time maybe.

Maybe you can put a weather forecast based on activity on TUS! Also, Bingo might be implemented as a scheme using teleports.

Looking at this 3 and a half years later, I think it's shit. Seriously, I don't get why I did this.


I don't want this to be locked, though. I need the mockery, as it helps me keep warm in the winter.
