Starting with 8 or trying to get 12?

Up to you. We have 12 now.

Just throwing out another Idea for a new module that probably will never be made 

A module that auto opens your games for you on WormNET, so that you don't have to type /open all the time.

That's it for now.

Thanks.

Knockout has begun. 6 days remains. Have fun and good luck!

Oh just for the record I don't want to ban the word noob. If you start to ban things you don't like then we would start to head down a slippery slope. Be mindful on how you express yourself and take responsibility of the words you use and how you use them. as well the repercussions that may follow your action.

To my dear Group 1!
I'm available on 19-21th October at 12:00-19:00 GMT. Then on 23th October and onwards at 16:00-20:00 GMT.
Please let me know your time to arrange games and do the thing

Tomorrow 17-20 CEST, Saturday I don't know, but possible. Sunday 13.00 CEST to 20 CEST. Regardless pm me on discord or snooper.

When you are reading Komodo's post it is like reading Star Wars opening text.

Imo Noob is supposed to be offensive, that's why I barely use it anymore. Instead I use ''newbie'' or nothing at all. Before at younger age I used the word noob more aimlessly around because it had more offensive properties and caused more negative reactions from other people.

So my new subjective opinion of a noob is somebody who is a slow learner, unwilling to learn, quits a lot, who throws random insults and remarks, and a person who can't understand the language perfectly or is bad at the common tongue in the location they are in.
A newbie Imo is opposite: They are willing to learn, wants to Improve, quits less, has a decent behavior, can be a slow or average learner, and can be okay at the common language.

Regardless if you agree on my take on the word noob and newbie. To use the word noob can both have both positive and negative effect on a person's psyche. Some people can handle it like when a Drill Sargent in the military screams at you, it can make them more stronger. Harsh experiences can make you stronger. So you may be thinking ''Well Kradie, maybe we all should be like a Drill Sargent and yell ''noob'' at each other''. No that's not what I meant. If we started to scream and shout insults to everyone we would live in a indecent society and lower ourselves to their level.

The word noob is more ''come of age'' to me and should be used in specific scenarios where it is just to use it.

The cup has started! 5 days remains! Good luck and have fun everyone!!

Kradie, I understand and sympathize with your desire for strict deadlines.

I would also argue that I'm more personally bothered than anyone else in the history of this game for being let down when people don't show up, play their games on time, or even make an effort.

It's frustrating beyond belief when people don't make an effort or prioritize their matches.

It's completely different when there are mitigating circumstances though, such as this.

You are within your rights as the Cup moderator to end it, however you have given the medal to the wrong person.

The Final is a separate match, Walrus showed up, Kaleu didn't.

There are 3 suitable options:

• Extend the deadline and let them play their match tonight.
• Reverse the decision so nobody gets a medal and just close the Cup.
• Give thewalrus the Gold medal as he's the one who showed up.

2.

Ending the cup without allowing us to have a few hours extension to play the game, is by definition, an agenda.

Why would i have an agenda? I like both you and Kalue, i got no quarrels with you two. In fact, my decisive action has probably hurt me more. So how does me having an agenda even benefit me? It doesn't make sense. This is a matter of principle. You had a deadline to follow, you both did, and things happened. That's it.

It isn't fun for me neither. I didn't even like to have to have done this. But deadline is deadline and there is going to be reprucussions. There is going to be unhappy people. We can remove gold and silver no problem but I won't accepst games played after deadline. Sounds extremely unfair right? Well it is life. You can't send in exam paper after deadline and get a result. The truth is, sometime things are out of control and we must face and accept it and move on.

If games would be played after deadline what would be the point?

If someone can convince me with unbiased arguments I can be open for consideration.

If I sound strict well that's because I am. Finals are VERY Important thing.

Probably because he played his semifinal match earlier.  Kaleu is willing to play me today but Kradie has his own agenda I think.  To be fair, Kaleu couldnt play because of circumstance outside his control, lightning storm near his house.  I believe he would have showed up if he could.  If the decision was reversed, I still wouldn't like it, it would be fair to Kaleu.  I don't want the gold medal or the silver medal from this, just want to play the final of the cup.

I have no agendas with anyone. That's paranoia Walrus.

Can a moderator please approve? Thank you.

The cup is now over and the final was not played. I do not fault Kalue and Walrus they tried. I have chosen to proceed Kalue as winner of this cup. If you do not like this, be more vigilant next time.

Thank you all for playing this cup. See you next time!

dear mod, how much time do we have to play for gold, silver and bronze?

24 hour both.

14 hours and 58 minutes remains of knockout stage.

I've made a new Cookies variation of this terrain which is easier on the eye for those who don't like the parallel lines (thanks to jsgnextortex for the idea).  This version uses a non-smooth grass.  All terrain objects and bridge are the same for both terrains.

I LOVE IT!

Thank you terrain master!
