Ok, for starters, it was a joke Kradie... Nobody is talking about banning NSFW map content even if some people think it's creepy incel type stuff.

Sam Brown, Sam Brown...

Or you could just keep it in your pants while playing video games...

I actually agree with Sbaffo lol.

Look, we've had 25 years of "oldschool" BnG... Now, don't get me wrong, I really like the Classic TUS scheme & rules and actually prefer it that way but look around... So many good players and good people really have valid issues with BnG right now and it's all to do with the rules both written and unwritten.

Rollers are even legal but people still get trashed for using them.

People keep asking why they can't throw 5s grenades without low gravity and/or maximum bounce.

What is even the point of having to re-aim if people can count shots anyway with individual notches?

Using 4s full power and lots of wind gets complaints as well as repeating shots.

The darksiding rule ALWAYS confuses people who previously didn't know about it:

Quote
No darksiding
*Darksiding is hiding your worm in a position where it's impossible for your opponent(s) to hit you with a grenade and at the same time impossible for you to hit your opponent(s) with a grenade. Simply teleport/move to other position.

Like Deadcode said in the recent Playoff BnG match versus oldsock... How do you know if it's impossible without using TA to check? The rules as they are mean that even a 1hp shot means it's a valid hide.

Anyway, this is just a vote, it's nothing official yet.

What are you even talking about, i shared my opinion on a topic asking for opinions.... on a message board .. i even started my reply with "personally" to ensure it's taken as my opinion. it's not in any way a threat. i really can see why this community is dying and it's you. for the three months I've been back reading this forum you self insert and alienate anyone who doesn't share your opinions. don't bother replying to this, i won't read it. i appreciate your passion and commitment to this game but for someones who spend his life typing on message boards you're considerably bad at actually talking to people. you'll never see me on this site again.

Lmao Sniper, that's a hell of an overreaction if I've ever seen one. Of course it was taken as your opinion, the point I was trying to make is that it's been said and done before, by myself and others and no decision is ever made based on an individual person saying "If this happens, I'll do this".

How do I even alienate anyone just by getting into forum disagreements? It takes more than just confrontation to make someone really feel alienated. I am not telling anyone they don't deserve to be here or that their opinions are not shared by anyone else... Just because I have an "opinion" to your "opinion" you instantly jump to literally alienating YOURSELF by claming you will never be on this website again.

Sounds like people alienate themselves just fine, they don't need my help lol.

I do get into disagreements quite often here, though all in all I'm still having a lot of fun with a lot of people and doing interesting projects and other stuff.

definitely not that scheme, most people hate auto reaim and anti power, also i can think of annoying things happening with teleporting on peoples heads, but so far its just been fun.  9 sec fuses are good too.

I haven't seen 1 single person complain about them, until now, which is you. Which makes sense because you're the only one who keeps forgetting about them in matches lmao! Or actually KRD mentioned he wasn't keen on them either, but he would take issue with anything BnG related so that doesn't count lol.

Personally, if you remove rules from BNG i will not play it in any league,

I don't think individual threats of quitting are going to do much good at this stage, clearly more people want a big change to BnG and it's happening sooner or later. Even I'm fed up with the current stupidity that is Classic BnG... I was more against it than anyone ever, I'm the one who fought against these changes time and time again... This is where BnG is headed in order to be fun and liked again by more than less.

Granted there are a few people who aren't keen on this change, but generally speaking you always get a minority against changes, regardless of what the change is. But! I think they will improve the Leagues for every scheme...

As in, each scheme has a mandatory standard scheme, for BnG it could be NrBnG, then however, players can choose to agree on a different variation... So they could agree to play TUS Classic scheme/rules, a2b scheme/rules or BnG Akimbo scheme/rules.

For Roper, you've got TUS Classic, but players could agree on ZaR or the W2 variant. For Big RR players could use the standard, then agree to Big Batty RR or Big Rubber RR. Hysteria could choose to play with no piling allowed, but all of these has a standard in case players cannot agree.

I've voted yes, I was going to do this myself soon but it's actually nice that someone else did it on their own accord!

So, my vote would go towards the NrBnG K scheme, though I'm not fussed if we lose the auto-reaim, anti-power, etc. I'd like to keep 9s though, it opens up nice possibilities.

With NrBnG as well, we would see the maps evolve to open up the bottom kind of as wel. You know how you make a BnG map with a Team17 cavern map? Delete top & fill bottom, well it's the same you just don't fill bottom. Since darksiding is allowed and sitters, it gives alternative tactics as well, you could hide down bottom, but then it's easy to throw 5s+ sitters to open up.

Nice, I should be able to stream that!

You guys already played a few didn't you?

Wow... And why does WKB page have that weird scheme?

🤷‍♂️

Can anyone post a replay of that elite?

Here, Deadcode hasn't reported his wins yet.

I moderate my own Worms Server, and I try my best to keep it clean from spam, malicious links, and bad people. However, I do allow people to discuss and share whatever that is on their mind within the confinement of reason, as longest it is kept orderly and civilized.

This is what I mean though... You keep going on about "Freedom of speech" whenever we discuss WormNET moderation, yet you constantly also admit you limit freedom of speech in your own channels.

"I do allow people to discuss and share whatever that is on their mind within the confinement of reason, as long as it is kept orderly and civilized" - So in otherwords, exactly everything I and others here have been saying the entire time. When it comes to FoS, you contradict yourself with your own actions quite often. Though, don't take that as negative insult because in this case it is not, it's a good thing that your actions resemble the truth, even if your words don't sometimes.

Yes, it would be nice if EVERYONE could live without rules, and laws etc... That just isn't the world we live in yet, we are not evolved enough as a species collectively.

Your problem is the same problem I have sometimes... The ideal world we wished we lived in, and the world we actually live in, are 2 different things and we cannot expect everyone to be on that level of a dream world yet, we're just not evolved enough yet.

The link was there so that people can read what the scheme is about. Didn't see this happening. Need to remove the links from all the scheme descriptions then.

I didn't even know it was possible to happen!

Deadcode seems to be the first, or only person, at least that I've heard of, to check up the League schemes this way instead of through the schemes page at the top bar.

Technically speaking, he did nothing wrong... So they let the game stand, which is fair enough. I reckon oldsock was heading for the win if it wasn't for the fact he couldn't get an easy shot with shotgun and ended up using pistol lmao.

Also, Deadcode did ask to check the scheme before playing, though I was AFK at that point so I missed it while Rafal and some other guy were flooding the chat.

Just watching oldsock Vs Deadcode for the TUS Playoffs, score is 2:1 to oldsock and Deadcode picks Elite.

Near the end, oldsock had a weird turn I laughed initially asking what happened... He said shotgun is disappeared...

As it turns out Deadcode used wrong scheme, but technically not his fault as he got it from here:

https://www.tus-wa.com/schemes/rules/#Elite

On that page, there is a link to the worms2d page with a download to a scheme that isn't the official TUS Elite scheme.

Is it possible to update this please?
