The whole point of island t17 was to make a scheme that was playable on any map type, to help with in game ranks and be entry level for new players to competitive play, but still allow for experienced players to perform well over time.

The question shouldn't be about island or twin, but when will we stop playing with two fixed map types across all schemes and play them on any randomly generated map  to help with bringing in entry level players to leagues, and create schemes for in-game ranks.

If you look harder enough at the WL replays you'll find some games played in caverns that aren't twin level.

T17, Elite, and Inter are all perfect for in game WA ranks where the map is fixed and cannot be changed unless you rehost, and is random.

Elite in caverns is a thing! (or was)

i keep trying to recruit albus, syc and Deadcode into CKC!

anyone who is playing leagues and interested DM me

the mine strike finish gj

I've not read the whole post and I apologise for this. Without any background reading can I throw an idea for playoffs as this seems like the thing that hasn't been determined yet.

Each scheme ladder leader could be put into an 'allround style' playoffs and if a ladder leader in Kaos or darts or whatever and they didn't want to take part in the 'allround style' playoffs they could opt out knowing they are still 1st in their scheme ladder. However, all the league ladder leaders would then go into a mini tournament of those schemes? Dibz for example might be the ladder leader of loads of rope variations and that would make a smaller pool of players? Or you give it to 1st and 2nd in that scheme variation? It could almost be like a mini cup?

Saw a guy called RuffledBricks on Twitch speedrunning Deathmatch a few months ago, they also speedrun the missions.

I tried to tell this guy about TUS and competitive worm play and he said he was interested, he's in Sensi's discord so maybe will see more people asking for TUS.

my aim is to stream more league games on twitch to create more awareness around WA. Once i've got a bit of a better set up I hope you all find me and don't troll. It will be a good way to attract new comers to worms.

MI - i know your doing some nice coding for the shoutbox but couldn't a discord embed work in a similar way?

Komo - perhaps a TUS server will naturally happen organically?

If lots of people ask for league games on discord does it make it harder for new comers in AG to learn about the leagues?

i think this has potential. If anyone was to mod it i think it would make for Senator too! But there are already alot of worms related discord servers. So would it be one too many?

Senator mentioned one of my tactics which would make hysteria a bit of a coin toss. I'd force SD and wait for the final shots in games. There were much better hysteria players than me like Chelsea of Gabriel and i'd force a BnG situation to play my advantage vs trying to combat their good lg combo moves which i can't pull off.

I remember Mablak always forcing SD in Hysteria as well.

the reason I started the thread was to ask if the current 'active' community was more against piling or don't mind it?

I prefer shopper with no AFR and no unlimited zooks, but that's just me.

I'd class this attack as legal. You could do similar things with old woman if you wanted to land after release and then get in front of the old women to make it turn after release.

I just played a hysteria for TUS vs Lancelot and he didn't like that I was piling with teleport. I personally think Hysteria is a bit of a broken scheme and not a massive fan of it. Could the scheme rules be updated to say piling is illegal as a new house rule if that is how people prefer to play it today?

yes, i think it may have been that we were trying to report when the season was finishing and season 11 was starting. if it happens again I'll take a screenshot next time.

i uploaded the wrong replay where he won and not me. oops.

when i'm using chrome on my mac it appears to be working fine. but none of my replays are here.

i saw avi on the worms subreddit.


Can you imagine if some of us older farts who lurk these forums invested that time looking for a league game, we might have a league to play!
