In fact, guys, and MonkeyIsland, i know Koras, he never miss planned games. It actually looks like 1) he just lost connection - problems with internet, 2) he has some personal problems (serious) - i hope he hasn't though. We both me and Koras were keeping time to prepair better and find a good time to play, cause we were sure we meet in time. Dear MonkeyIsland, give us a chance to play this game tomorrow evening, please. If me or Koras (depends on who win this game) won't play final till the final deadline (game vs SPW) you just give SPW gold. So we will have to play two games till the last deadline.
This game should be played!

God, Koras is not coming, it is 23.00 here. Will wait him till 1.00. Don't know what to do if he doesn't come cause it will be our mistake. We could have played before. This game must be played, no way for tech win here... :(. Lol, looks like it is the first eveninig we can't play.

I vote for knocking in elite!  :D

(lol, j/k guys)

Well, you and MAblak are special cases. I think you know what you do. But a lot of player watch your playing. Koras, i reraly play and this tendantion of waiting for SD looks very obvious for me. People find a way to have chances with no skill and brain. It is not like i'm angry they can win vs me or you playing like that. If i lose a game - i will never say i lost cause of SD, but when people don't see a lot of things and don't even try to open their eyes, that's so lame :( If i act the same, i just say "sorry, i'm too lazy to think now", but some people suppose it is an nice way to improve lol. Anyway, i said all i want. It was actually usefull for me to hear your thoughts. Sorry for opening an old story! :)

Hello, guys!
First of all, thank you for all the opinions!

Koras, Joschi and Antares: i actually agree with your reasons (as you remember i was even against cutting creates from the scheme long time ago and i actually agree that SD makes intermediate more unstandart and well balanced), but the thing i hate is that games become like "lame waiting" since someone starts to win, in stead of finding a way of clever tactical moves and great plans. Just watch old games, lol you all play not the first year. Remember how YOU (not me, not Dario, not Jigsaw). You were winning games on a last turns, when your opponents were leading badly by great ideas and unstandart moves. Now 90% of you just prefer to wait to SD. Sitting near PC for 40 sec and do shotgun in last 5 sec.

So, Joschi, you are very close to the truth. I got really bored exactly cause of that, and i don't blame Rakfa! LOL, 90% people play exactly the f@#!ing same!

At the same time, I admit i can be far behind modern playing, and just don't understand something, anyway it is up to you, how to play, i just explain you what i can't understand and what i can't take as it is going now. You are those - who decide.

PS. Again, i'm glad we discussed it somehow again, and it helped me to understand the situation better, but i talk about "evolution" of player's style, not about the scheme itself. It is good. And, Tenori and Pr, Koras is right here (in my opinion), if we don't have SD:

-U can waste all ropes before SD (if U force him to waste a loots of ropes), its np for him cause he can play 'slow' too)
-U will win if U had better positions
-tactic sux cause when opponent lead.... he must just hide well and use shotgun

I'm really afraid of spoiling NNN-luckless scheme by cutting SD off it.

PS2. Koras, friend, i was actually too angry after that game with Rafka. I say "sorry", i still suggest to play NNN-luckless (not TNL-intermediate) in our game if you don't mind. I hope i explained why i said that.

Even if i played boring it was cause i played 4th or 5th game this month. Just no shape for creative moves. Not cause i sit for 40 seconds and watching the clock every turn.

I don't care who made this scheme! If i consider it well balanced - it is nice, even if 5 years old kid made it. Btw, i don't say NNN-luckless is bad, i just an answer your words.

Lol. If we talk serious: consider the way of playing - waiting for SD. It is exactly the same as dud mines. You can predict, mine doesn't work. At  the same time you can predict SD happenes on your turn, or your opponent's turn, it is just random, so the situation is close to dud mines. Why we turned dud mines off, but doesn't turn SD off. It is pretty logical. If you don't agree, motivate your answer.

Pr said about our game with Rafka: "lol, 5 rounds SD, next time use TNL scheme".

Exactly!

Lol, Pr! In fact, i don't like what is going on, in stead of nice tactics, nice moves people just wait for SD using Skunks, Girders and Petrols, some of them even call this hard, lol. To seperate two worms further from each other, oh cmon. In such situations i would use TNL scheme actually, and next time i will do. Should warn Koras about that.

Lol, i play not too often lately. But last 2-3 gamesi played was about boring end (just boring, not interesting, just lame tries to win). But okay, it is in the rules, i agree, it is also can be rational. Just one question: Lol, i played only 3 games and got bored already, but you, guys, play EVERY day like that. How do you manage to continue?

To Koras: friend i respect you too much to let you win me by luck. Only by your great skill and mastership (which you got enough!)

Hello, guys!

I finally registered on the forum, i'm not sure i will register in the league though (just cause of lack of time :( )

That's cool to see here a lot of guys who i was starting playing with very long time ago!

I'm actually surprised to hear all this, lol, I can only guess that you got to this point by (like they say) from word to word. Anyway, there are a lot of different clans in whole worms comunity, and i used to know nice clever and talanted people from other clans who are my good mates and i'm always please to play/talk to them! The same situation here, there are two leagues - TUS and ONL. They are both great and they are well-known as a good well balanced systems, comunities or how we can call it. And i don't see any reason to be unfriendly or disrespectful to each other.

At the same time. Uniting of these two leagues is not elementary problem. It is as hard as uniting of two different clans. We have different traditions, different systems. But all this doesn't make any problems between us, it is rather gives us a chance to share expirience of playing and organizing tourneys.

In my opinion - uniting is a question of far future. But i'm happy there are still a lot of such enthusiasts like MonkeyIsland, Kilobyte, Dario, Cybershadow and others who keeps this cool game and it's comunity alive!
