So the votes are in and plenty of people apparently want to see them return.

Voting has been enabled again, so go on ahead to the voting page and send 'm in!

I've added best worms streamer in the list, because if there's one thing we should be doing more as a community, it's streaming (though I can't deny I wish more people would make worms movies again) and we gotta acknowledge the people that are doing it.

Happy voting!

General discussion / Everybody sucks
« on: May 02, 2017, 04:34 PM »
But you could suck a little more, guys!

We're 4 months in, and so far, only 28 replays (2 of which have already been labeled unexceptional or disqualified) have been submitted for WSE. I'm sure there are a couple of truly awful turns that haven't been submitted yet.
Please don't forget to submit them, though! Your replay might live on for eternity and if everybody submits their great fails, it's more to enjoy for everybody.

General discussion / What MonkeyIsland doesn't want you to see
« on: January 28, 2017, 02:18 PM »
lol clickbait

So a couple of years ago, TdC decided that they wanted to have a clan movie. It took quite a long time, but we finally got around to making this (well, I did, anyway)! Thanks also for Rash for really starting editing, even if you didn't have time to finish it. It did motivate me to make this :)

Since it took such a long time to edit this, the members roster underwent some changes, so please consider the players and their segments as a sort of time capsule of how the clan used to be.

The video is best viewed on full screen. Make sure you have the time for it, it's almost 24 minutes long

Without further ado, here it is!

General discussion / Worst. Shot. Ever.
« on: January 07, 2017, 08:32 PM »
http://wse.worms2d.info/2016.php

They're up!
For any moviemakers out there, we still haven't gotten one for 2014 or 2015. Let us know you're working on it, though, so we don't have 2 people doing the same job :)

On another note, checking these replays was fun, but also took a lot of time - we had 445 replays submitted, but unfortunately, a lot of them weren't all that good. A couple of them even had turns where the damage was less than optimal instead of a big backfire or anything. The increase in replay submission did lead to more winners, so that's good, but please be more critical of replays. The site is called 'Worst Shot Ever', not 'Slightly Inconvenient Shots'.

Enjoy the replays!

General discussion / Worms standard missions (new records!)
« on: September 17, 2016, 07:34 PM »
For those of us that don't frequent the worms knowledge base, Mablak has been busy breaking records in the standard missions, even after all these years.

https://worms2d.info/Mission_records

New records are red. Would be awesome if someone here could give Mablak a run for his money :) Even if not, the new replays are damn impressive, go give them a look.

Late again!

So this was the third season of prize money awarded to winners. I'll leave it up to MI and obscure if they want to continue their prize money giving, but this is the last one where I'm giving money to winners.

Our current list of winners (names in green have received their winnings or have chosen to donate to TUS):

League prizes:
Lukz: Playoffs qualification spot ($10) + Standings #1 ($20)
Phanton: Playoffs qualification spot ($10)
Almog: Playoffs qualification spot ($10)
daiNa: Playoffs qualification spot ($10) + Playoffs winner (100$)
dibz: Playoffs qualification spot ($10)
NiCo`: Playoffs qualification spot ($10) + Playoffs runner-up (20$)
GreatProfe: Playoffs qualification spot ($10)
Sbaffo: Playoffs qualification spot ($10) + Worst shot of the season (20$)
XrayeZ: Best shot of the season ($20)
Piki1802: Best turn of the season (20$)
easy: Worst turn of the season (20$)

Note: easy hasn't been online since January and has not responded to my PM

Additional prizes:

Best shot of the season
1. 182489 Gorgeous banking grenade with a virtually perfect hit
2. 182410 high risk move, since it has used both ropes and his superweapon. Perfect landing, too.
3. 182727 Petrol, nice symmetry in the mines
4. 182181 nice bazooka shot, but not special enough to beat the 2 obvious strong shots
5. 184107 good save of a botched supersheep drop, not a very accurate hit, but good enough to win the game
I have to give this win to the jetpack banking grenade, because it is an impressive shot given any time limit and this was handled with one second turn time.
Clearly, this was shot was intended to go as it went. The holy handgrenade turn was well thought out, but there was an additional rope used and the shot was somewhat lucky the way it went.

Best turn of the season
1. 183083 sweet bungee move, skipping a turn and completing the next jump just in time
2. 182226 good knock, turning a losing position into an instantly winning one
I'm going with the bungee turn - perhaps because I'm slightly biased towards bungeerace, but also because the turn could've gone wrong at so many points, but it didn't. The result was one badass turn.

Worst shot of the season
1. 183634 Great team hit in between 2 targets, this hurt even more when you consider that the killed worm would deal easy damage on the 2 80 HP worms the next turn.
2. 184040 Homing missile runs out of fuel just in time to miss a good piling shot in abnormal
I'm giving it to the bazooka shot because it was catastrophic for the game - instead of doing massive damage, he goes straight to a completely lost position with that shot.
While it was certainly bad luck the missile ran out of fuel, I don't think it would have killed many worms.

Worst turn of the season
1. 182195 So many things went wrong here, it's hard to describe where to begin
2. 182726 wow, that was an unlucky teleport, killing 2 of the 3 worms, dooming his entire team to die
I'm giving it to 182195 because hysteria is a scheme much more prone to blunders than is elite and considering so many things had to be executed poorly.
