Haha sure, I cant argue with the points you have made mate, back to my first post though

not a complaint and this is in no way asking for things to change, I simply like discussion :)


Its not worth changing the names of the leagues because of one persons thoughts on the subject. And I wouldn't expect that to happen or ask for it.

But my opinion remains the same, Hysteria is no more a classic scheme that Kaos, Boomrace, Big RR or any other number of schemes that have been around for ages (sometimes longer) and in the case of Kaos, at least at one point was far more popular than.. well any other scheme on WA!

Halloween is an American thing :P

LIES! it happens all over the world. And if you wanna get technical it was actually invented by the Celts, Irish Celts to be exact (my ancestors in fact, which may explain my enthusiasm)

Sorry America.. you can commercialise it, you can use it to sell candy but that's not what Halloween. You cant have it!  >:(

That's right people the UK is responsible for everything from the combustion engine, television, the radio, trains, electricity and Halloween to name but a few.

Your welcome! xD

they weren't responsible for the TV and Radio. LIES

Go do some research then come back and admit you were wrong :D

You will find that a few people tried to claim the invention of the radio as their own due to political reasons etc. It was made in the UK


And TV was invented by John Logie Baird a Scottish inventor, I doubt (as an American) that you will know where Scotland is, but trust me.. it's in the UK xD

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Logie_Baird


Also not electricity!


Electricity I was wrong about though. I copy pasted a list a found online and didn't check it (here http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_Has_England_Ever_Invented) as I was only messing around not publishing an article for you to mark our of 10 lol

But yeah, I should have checked it.

And besides, Electricity has always been there, what do you think Lightening is?

Trust an American to claim credit for it! xD

Not old.. classic! :D

Hysteria is not a classic scheme in my opinion. Although I agree with most of the points you made earlier Ray.

But sure a Gameboy is classic, a Megadrive is classic!

a Xbox 360 is popular.. not classic

Hysteria is popular and playable enough to be part of the classic league!

I dont like hysteria, but I see the truth!

Your missing the point mate.

I'm not arguing that Hysteria is popular, I'm not arguing whether Hysteria is a fair balanced scheme etc or not.

I'm simply saying that next to schemes like BnG, Roper etc Hysteria just doesn't sit right for me.

Is it a good scheme? sure why not
Is it a fair scheme? again sure.. whatever

Is it a classic scheme? Hell to the motherflipping no it isn't! (in my opinion :D)

Again there are no right or wrong answers here (except all opinions that go against mine) this is just a discussion :)

...a discussion that you are all wrong in xD

You guys have been away from WA way too long.

Lol you make us sound like such a bunch of old men dude :D

Don't make the mistake of thinking TUS is WA, I am new to TUS sure but I have always been on and off active pretty much since the games release. Forging Style And Destruction since 1935!



Like you point out JayX, its way more popular then boomrace and walk for weapons, I think that factor should be valued more then what is the most classic scheme.

Totally agree mate, but if it is going to be about popularity then it should be called "the Popular League" Team 17, BNG, Shopper, WXW, RR etc are classic schemes. For example if Golf or Mole Shopper became really popular would that be added to the Classic League?

Well, JayX, you are right about the scheme not being as old as other schemes in the Classic League, true point. First I didn't understand why it'd be included in the Classic League either.

I didn't really like the scheme either to be honest,

Well, don't get me wrong, I like Hysteria, it's a cool scheme and its popular. And sure, we can reference that wiki article.. but the fact is it just doesn't apply in this case I don't think as there is no overall governing body to regulate what the worms community as a whole considers to be classic (see classic cars in the wiki).

The schemes in Classic league are all of a certain type except one.. Hysteria. They are the originals, the classics! the games that were here long before many of us logged onto AG for the 1st time. Those are the true classics!

A simple solution would be to decide at the beginning what the maps will be.

Open / Closed / Open (or whatever)

Then it is decided in advance and nobody can use map choice for their advantage.

Although I also wish to point out that your opponent does not know what weapons you have. And by picking an open map could just as easily be giving you the chance you need to turn the game around.

Advance choices of map style are fair I think and should be used.

Ahh attention grabbing headlines.. gotta love 'em

Not a complaint here at all before I get started, but just something I wanted to open for discussion :)

I was thinking the other day while playing classic league that (to me at least) the inclusion of Hysteria in there was an odd choice when older and more 'classic' if you like schemes like Boomrace, WFW are not included.

Again not a complaint and this is in no way asking for things to change, I simply like discussion :)

But to me Hysteria is not really a classic scheme at all and by (at least my standards) is not even that old of a scheme. Boomrace is nowhere near as popular as Hysteria and I'd be the 1st to admit that.. but it certainly is more 'classic' imo

Why would you say that is? I agree 100% with all the other schemes in the classic league.

Discuss  :D

how do u force light people?!

That's a secret apparently..

I have the file (never used it) then you use a /code in lobby to activate it but when I was given it the person that gave it me gave it with a long speech about "never pass this on, its for pro's only, I'm trusting you with this"

Like he was handing over the keys to the nuclear ignition system xD

Personally I think its not needed, play when everyone is ready, if you wont wait then kick them.

Yeah kids in the UK have gone the same way too. There is a formula here though

Give money = Happy Kids   ;D

Give Candy = Hmm.. thanks... I guess :(

Give nothing = throw eggs at your house!  >:(
