It's a good idea, but it's good idea #2856239 and I imagine like the rest it will be ignored.

A few things I am unsure about, moving up by beating people below you, there are people on TuS who would rather play 20-30 games vs noobs a day to move up 4-6 spots rather than doing it the proper way.

The activity requirement, I like the overall idea but don't like the way it would work, imagine someone was like 100 wins and 6 losses, which is amazing for Roper, they were #1, decided to take a break for half a year, now they are last, does that not seem stupid to you or am I mad lol? Or is there a threshold, like they can only ever be as low as the middle with inactivity?

At work gtg will post more later.

Yes I agree with not moving up by beating people below you. Defeats the purpose of the ladder really.

The activity requirement stops people from being near untouchable. If they were on top for 2 months then they will set the standard in the hall of fame with 60 days on top. The whole win loss thing won't be seen.

Also if a good roper takes a break and finds himself at the bottom, if would not take long to get back up if he can beat people in the top 10.

The ladder won't be a overall thing, it will be the top roper playing right now!

If your looking to be remembered you need to stay on top and set your record there.

After Biscuits post about a roper only league I've been thinking maybe we don't need a league but instead a Ladder. This would be very similar to case's ladder.

Now before I write how it would work know that this could be used for any scheme, not just roper. Also it would need some fine tuning, these are just my ideas for now.

The way the ladder would work is you would be able to play any player say 2-3 times a day(not 100% sure on how many per day yet) and as many different players as you'd like.
To move up the ladder you have to beat someone above you. if you beat someone 6 ranks above you, you move up 3 ranks and they move down 1 rank.

And not sure about this part but maybe if you beat 3-5 different people below you in one day, you rank up 1 as well

Now to stop people getting to the top and never playing again. there will be an activity requirement. Need to play a game every 3-7 days or you loose 1-2 spots(again amount of days and spots lost needs to be properly decided). Hopefully this stops people avoiding as well because if they keep avoiding people under them they will eventually run out of people to play and move down.

There will be a Hall Of Fame setup one month after the ladder has started so it is more realistic
1st - Days at top of the Ladder
2nd - Days at top of the Ladder
3rd - Days at top of the Ladder

New player start as unranked, win or lose first game and then they start at bottom of the ladder. Every game after that will decide ranks.

Please let me know your thoughts.

Maybe try make something similar to this - http://www.deadendcafe.net/rl/
And if it gets enough activity you could then ask to get it intergraded into TUS.

Tried to start this awhile back with the same similar idea https://www.tus-wa.com/forums/b2r/
Got inactive and abandoned it. Breeze also coded a basic rope league there not sure if it still works.

Does look a bit fishy

Hold one space down, click second space. If it works it is banned simple as that. Im 100% after watching you rope you are using scripts/cheats that are not allowed.

If you're on Windows 10 Home where you can't turn off automatic updates (other than by disabling the Windows Update service), make sure that the connection type for your mobile connection is set to "Metered", then it won't download updates automatically.

Can't find where to change the connection to metered? Did a google search and that didn't help either. Could you please explain? 


edit: Never mind found it

Start wa up click the bottom right box, click advanced. Thereis an option in advanced options to turn the phone notifications on and off.

Used my fingers, heard a bent paper clip does the job though.

I did like them, but I don't feel they made much of a difference. What I was trying to say was don't expect it will feel like a totally different keyboard with the o-rings.

Brown switches

Yea they were the blue ones. Had them on a razer chroma. It was better but not that noticeable. Just made it a bit quieter. They are only cheap so I would still recommend buying them, just don't expect big changes from them.

lol... i been switchin back n forth between the k740 and my mechanical... honestly, both are good keyboards but i'll probably be sticking with the k740 for worms..... rubber dome (scissor switches) are just too good for this game and double taps. mechanicals feel weird in WA, the only way i could probably go back to roping on my mechanical is if i bought O-rings to put under my keycaps to reduce the actuation and bottoming out feeling (http://www.wasdkeyboards.com/index.php/products/keyboard-accessories/cherry-mx-rubber-o-ring-switch-dampeners-125pcs.html). Then again... mech type kb's were made for First Person Shooters and other type related games.

I had some of those. Wasn't a big difference.
