Keep in mind Korydex's stats were played with different scheme (no sudden death = longer games)

Reportedly SD helps with comebacks so stats shouldn't be any different?

Sudden Death - I feel sudden death is another needed change because of random placements and the proclivity of Bo3 matchups in this scheme.  Sudden death seeks to equal the playing field, if you have bad opening positions and are behind going into SD, you have a chance to win by plopping worms.  This assures no lead given to a player because of good spawns is insurmountable going into the late game.  Also, it shortens boring long games where both players are hiding and unwilling to be aggressive, thus ending a standoff. 

I'm voting for 3. Crates are rare so they don't really make much of a difference to Hysteria. Aerial and Hysteria are different enough with or without crates. Crates seem like unnecessary luck element to me.

Was Bo1 a big problem in the current TUS scheme? If SD makes a difference, increase the round time?

I think he represents the middle Roman Republic, when the Senate had reached the apex of its republican power.

Edit: by republican I mean the way it used to be in Rome on that time. Not the USA nowadays concept of "republican" (party) guy.

That's correct!

Has Kradie or Rocket messaged me on TUS/AG/Discord? Nope. Free and I will play on Wednesday or Thursday.

You can start the cup with 16 players, np. I'll be on the waiting list.

imo the maps could be closer to 40s. most of them are just 20s

Will this be played on Bytor maps?

• WxW

WxW is fine too.
I have a question about AFC. Is this relevant or not? In all the time I've been playing this scheme, I've never seen anyone attack from a parachute.

I've seen a couple of times. You have to either AFR or AFC. No need to change this imo.

• Shopper

Shopper is ok but...
In the description of the rules, I read that shopper is played without the AFR rule. Is this really true or is it a typo?
And what does CWC mean?

AFR was removed from TUS Shopper in 2013. CWC was some community behind the scheme file. IMO that scheme sucks cos so many weapons were removed and some weapons don't have standard power level. They made the scheme even more boring. I would go back to the FB league scheme or a slightly edited version of it.

Whats the difference between senator's t17 scheme and Deadcodes? I'm always playing Deadcodes

I just made the agreed changes to the previous TUS scheme. The scheme is almost like the FB league scheme. The only difference is that the TUS scheme has significantly less Banana Bombs.

What's different in DC's scheme:
- 2 mins longer round time
- 5-sec hot-seat time instead of 0
- half mines and barrels instead of all barrels
- Blow Torch and Drill have standard 3 power instead of 5
- Cluster Bomb has 2 power (Intermediate) instead of 1 (Elite)
- Longbow upgrade disabled and 4 power instead (22 damage per arrow)
- more Banana Bombs (still less than in the FB league scheme)

IMO we could add a new scheme file for TUS with all those changes except Longbow should have standard 3 power (15 damage per arrow) like it had in the WL scheme file.

Boom Race: Should be updated to SDET (Shot doesn't end turn), phased worms, seconds determine winner.

Is this how everyone plays Boom Race these days?

Quote from: TheWalrus on October 09, 2023, 10:15 PM
Aerial:  Change to sensei's superior Aerial scheme instead of current HHC scheme, better for Bo1 games for sure, and better and more balanced overall.

I tried to get changes to HHC's scheme in the past without success. Too many different voices. I would just remove the unnecessary luck elements from HHC's scheme. That fast SD in Sensei's scheme seems unnecessary to me.

But the thing is that I thought that almost all racing schemes work on the principle of rope race rules, where the remaining time until the end of the turn is calculated.

In Big RR the remaining turn time wasn't a tie-breaker until the scheme was moved to the Allround league and we changed the rules. I think TTRR was the only racing scheme where seconds mattered.

my understanding is, admins (the ones who left and the ones who are still here) played allround (and classic) league only so they completely ignored what was going on with TFL, they don't know, nor they want to have any business with whats going on with them, how the schemes are edited.

That's true from my part. I only cared about updating the Classic/Allround league schemes. TUS doesn't have a league mod dedicated to Free league schemes.

Quote from: Lancelot on October 05, 2023, 07:54 PM
These things need to be updated, preferably by players who understand them, and then published where necessary.

I'm ready to help with this, but does anyone want to update anything on TUS?

We can do the updates together. Someone just needs to open a thread and get the process going. Post a list of schemes and put the suggested scheme file and rules/description under each scheme.

Yeah this one is even in the rulebook. "If a player plays your pick, but then disappears at his pick, you CANNOT report free win."
