Hopefully, he'll return eventually. I also played Darts with him a lot back in the day. He's a good player.

« on: April 14, 2024, 01:55 PM »I hit 9 four times in a row. I think there used to be some kind of bonus for this or am I mistaken?That was only used in some old Darts cups, I think. So, no extra bonus for hitting the bullseye in a row.
Still, very impressive run.
Good to see you in a Darts chally, man.

Kirill, your score is 8, not 13, because you touched the ceiling with Rainbow Dash, your first worm, and the rules say "no unmarked contact allowed before reaching your target", i.e. you can only touch wherever the map allows you to touch.
A copy of Saint's now deleted run: [attachment=1]
- 0:42 is invalid because that worm touched the ceiling.
- 1:07 is invalid because it did not touch the green part.
- 1:37 did not touch the green part as well.
You have to connect your rope to blue, bounce from red, bank your worm from green, and reach the target without touching anywhere else on your way. These are the official rules that Komo put on his map and they are mentioned in the chally description, so you have to follow them.
Guys, read the rules carefully before passing the challyHehe, yes, I think you already understand why your 45pts run is actually not a 45pts run, but let me explain it for other players just in case.

« on: April 14, 2024, 10:13 AM »- Does it help your community to talk about right/left political agendas? (in society: YES, in WormNET: NO)Absolutely. Not to mention, even if you want to talk about these topics with your fellow wormers, there's nothing stopping you from doing it elsewhere, like on a Discord server.
- Does it help to talk about Hitler? (in society: YES, in WormNET: NO)
- Does it help to talk about religion? (in society: YES, in WormNET: NO)
People tend to leave your community when they don't like its atmosphere. It is not about growing a pair and being tough. It's not about ignoring what you don't like. TRUST ME! I've ran this show for 15+ years. People have left the community in front of my eyes. Many of those who left were not even the target of some beef. They just didn't like the atmosphere of people pulling each other's hair.100% truth! You can add me to that list as well. Before my return around December 2023, the last time I was properly active was in 2019. I quit back then because 1) A good portion of my wormer friends became inactive. 2) I had unpleasant experiences with some wormers, directly and indirectly.
You may call me a p*ssy or whatever for quitting for these reasons, but honestly, I have finite time in this world and near infinite ways I can spend that time, so why should I settle for a shittier option?
And you know what made me return? Friends! Adame, aka LeTotalKiller, messaged me around November and we had a bit of a chat after not speaking to each other for a year or two. We reminisced about the good times we had and decided to make a comeback. So yes, atmosphere is EVERYTHING! Moreso for a 25 years old game like W:A.
The topic freedom of speech is a very Important value to me and I can get very passionate about it.I understand how you feel, Kradie. I live in a country where almost all political parties seem to adapt an authoritarian approach, whether they lean left or right, and I saw the negative consequences of it, so I also prefer freedom/liberty whenever possible. But considering WormNET, and how much people at top (MI, Deadcode, etc.) listen to community, I don't think we will ever have an oppresive police state in W:A. It is a valid concern, but I don't think no moderation is the way to go.
Unlike country politics where everyone abides to same laws, you can always create your own community. There is nothing stopping anyone to create their own TUS. Also, W:A already gives so much freedom. For example, replay system allows anyone to start their own competitive outlet. If I don't like the way leagues/cups/tournaments/challenges work on TUS, I can create my own (and I actually created a private UC league with a different ELO system).

« on: April 09, 2024, 05:18 PM »Remember when Darts first started Triad? You had Tournaments where people used 3 maps for the entire Tournament, they practised beforehand and the skill level was higher and more impressive.Yeah, the competition was really fierce. On Darts events, not only I had to be careful against dS admins like you or Hurz, dS players like timo or Marian, but even non-dS players like Zwitter or Pyro was sometimes a threat.
I think whenever I'll host a new Darts event, I'll try to use a specific map pack like the WO days.
In FPS games, you could be the best mechanical player, able to draw and shoot faster and with more accuracy than any other player in the world, but if you're up against the other top 20 players in the world, and they all played the map for a few weeks, and it's your first time, you're going to lose for a while before you learn the environment.Indeed, reminds me of people who play Dust 2 over and over again in CSGO. When these people play on any other map, they really have a harder time.

« on: April 09, 2024, 04:09 PM »Beautiful run. If Worms Armageddon was a popular esports title and the best ropers could dedicate hours to improve their roping skills, I wonder how close they could get to this theoretical level in all Big RR maps.

I also enjoy Kirill's custom made maps for challenges. I think I'll host on old maps only when there's no new maps ready.
Kirill, whenever you have a new map coming, just let me know before the current active TTRR challenge ends, so you can host the next one with your map instead.

Yeah, just rename the replay file, and it should work.
We got some nice activity in this challenge, hope to see even more people.
