The site has some server problems I think, I can't really open it. Pinging it shows and average of 3 of 4 packets lost. Now I can't predict, what if the site is not up until the end of the matchday and I miss the predictions because of that?

This game was a TEL, according to our agreement.

Hey people, I don't usually do any sort of thing like this, but this is really important for me.

My band - Ragged Punks of City Deep - is going to perform on a huge charity festival on the 23rd of March, 2013 and there are going to be over 20 bands on this day, sharing the same stage.

Since there are going to be a lot of people attending from various televisions and radios, we would like to get as close to the prime time as possible and that is organized through a poll on Facebook. No apps and hassle, just a regular Facebook question, you don't need to "Like" anything.

Here is the event page. Now, on top of the comments, there is a poll - might be possible that you can only see comments after RSVP-ing, so just drop a "Maybe" then - that says:

"Melyik zenekart szeretnétek főműsoridőben látni?"

There, please, vote for Ragged Punks of City Deep. If you are up on Facebook, if you could do this small thing, it would mean the world for me and for my band.

Thank you very much!

EDIT: forgot to mention that the voting ends on the 20th of March.

EDIT: since the organizers of the event don't like that people from other countries than Hungary voted, I removed the link from my post. Thank you for all your votes!

Why is mm called dt now?

"Is TUS presentable to people outside?"

The answer is no not because of the lack of the Spam Assassin group, but because of the lack of a good website. You are a typical backend coder who does an excellent job at that part, no question about it. But this website needs a content management and a very good designer who knows exactly how to manage and sort and put content at it's right place at the right time.

Not everyone can do this, I can definitely not do that for example, at least at not such a huge project.

TUS needs a designer. And don't start coming at me with these design templates that are installed, no, those are bullshit, only excuses for a professional design. Until that's done (which should have been the very very first step, 4 years ago) this site remains unpresentable to newcomers.

I am pretty sure many of you were thinking about similar stuff before, but none of these have been out there - or at least I haven't seen any - so I decided to make this thread and collect some ideas of variants of our beloved scheme: Time Trial Rope Race!

Now the basic idea is to keep the original scheme, but add some spice to it by making it more difficult than it already is. Here are some of my ideas!

---

ssTTRR - Start to Start Time Trial Rope Race

Nothing difficult to understand here, the only change compared to the original scheme is that you rope from start to finish, touch finish, then rope back to start again and touch it as a finish, all that in one turn. This is basically just extending the length of the map.

• You are allowed to stay on the rope and touch the finish like that and start roping back, no need to get off the rope.
• You are still allowed to end your turn by headknocking when you are going back to start.
• Three worms, you have three chances.

aTTRR - Average Time Trial Rope Race

This is making it a little more tricky. In aTTRR, you still have three worms, but you have to finish with each worm and the time that counts is not your best, but instead the average of all three turns. In case both players fail to finish with all their worms, you start over.

Now this sounds a little too hard, as in case you plop your first worm, all your opponent has to do is saferope to the finish with all the worms and you lose. For this reason we could come up with different ideas, such as:

• Have four worms instead of three and both players have to finish with three worms, the three best turns' average counts.
• In case you only finish with two worms, the average of those turns count, minus X seconds of penalty.

See these rules are very flexible, you could come up with a better solution than these, but you could also keep it difficult by having the basic idea: you have to finish with each worm.

eTTRR - Extreme Time Trial Rope Race

Almost like the previous variation, but! You have to finish with each worm in one single turn and that time counts. Three worms, one chance, one turn. You rope from start to finish, touch the finish, get off the rope, use Select Worm to switch to your next worm and start roping with that to the finish. Then repeat with your last worm and that time counts.

sseTTRR - Start to Start Extreme Time Trial Rope Race

Combination of the first and the third variation, where you rope from start to start basically three times. One worm is enough for both teams, but you have to put your worm down when roping back to the start - like if you were to use Select Worm.

This tournament has been delayed to next week!
