Guys, if you don't like roping just do the 'Chicken23': lose all your Ropers and RRs until your rating is so low that your opponents won't pick it because they only get 1 point. Easy. :D

Spoiler! View
Yes, Chicken actually did that in FB (and made playoffs I think)


I think that only partially works in TUS because after every season your seasonal rating resets so you really can't get THAT low. Overall doesn't matter in terms of PO so dunno if it could work. xD

Why is TUS classic biased towards people that like roping? There are also people that like roping more than they like defaults, I see noone of them complaining. ;)
I think its because people who play defaults exclusively also have a penchant for asshattery and whining.

EDIT: green font is sarcasm, forgot im not on the basketball forum I go to online

Siign me up for the hhc league.  Actually sounds amazing.  I'd delete shopper and wxw as well.  The idea to combine hysteria and bng into a 3 sec deal sounds great.

I wonder, who's the grandpa of TUS? HHC, SPW, Garf?  8)

I am 28 for the record, old but certainly not oldest.
I am 29, I know skunk3 is like 33 or 34, but theres gotta be older oldschoolers around.  I remember a few of the GIT guys were in their late 30's/early 40's, and that was 10 years ago.  Some of them were hopping on when I was active a few years ago from time to time.

Okay, I'm not really terribly old, but I imagine older than most here. My reflexes aren't what they were 10 years ago, and I don't think I'll ever be able to competatively rope, given what I see in league replays.

I was looking at the leagues that are played. And the problem I have with them (with partial exception of TEL) is that they're all reflex based. Especially, there's no real way to avoid heavy focus on ropes (again, except TEL) since your opponent can always pick a roper or wxw or whatnot.

Now, there is TEL, but that itself is far more focused on quick action than strategy.

Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with the above - but I do think worms has a lot more room for strategic play that doesn't involve twitch skills with quite such a focus - is there no interest in a league focused on schemes (or perhaps a single one) where time and twitch skills aren't the most critical factor?

It could involve old Pro scheme, T17, maybe even intermediate, anchored BnG and quite a bunch of other schemes.

If there's no audience for such a community, that's fine, of course, but I do wonder if I'd be the only one interested in such a league.
Garf, pro died a death long ago when ranks came down.  Truth be told, it wasn't that great of a scheme anyways.  From what you describe I would say you should look into intermediate.  The NNN really love this shit, they even put on a big tourney every year:

http://www.cwtsite.com/archive/2013

You can download some game replays off that page to see what the gameplay is like at the very highest level.  Intermediate isn't really for mid level players, its just as highly evolved as elite in terms of overall strategy.  Lots of room to grow for the non high twitch players.  Good luck finding a scheme to play, Garf, I hope you stick around.

funny offtopic but lets go. im pretty sure tag and bryan will be motivated to continue and if its just to show this german noob was wrong.
and well they achived nothing, you can pretty much compare them to the sac kings team during the era of the la lakers three peat. some people will say they were the better team looking at the skillset and the way they played bball. in the end they were not clutch at all. it doesnt matter there were some weird calls by the refs, and it also doesnt matter this f@#!ing ball somehow went to robert horry after an already lost posession in the final seconds of the deciding game(hi boris diaw btw spurs fans will get it). he made the triple, the lakers went to finals later and won their rings.
some people remember this team but noone will ever forget the three peat of the lakers. at some point your championship window is closing and gg.  speaking as a die hard kings fan: every lakers fan has the right to troll me because of beeing unable to win a single championship while obviously having the potential for it.
I blame Scot Pollard, Peja.  He cared more about modifying/changing his hairstyle than stopping Shaq in the paint.  You of all people should know this:

It's too bad there is one constant among these old websites, using wayback machine or otherwise.....the messageboards have always been lost.  And the messageboards, in a lot of ways, are  where most of the interesting stuff is housed.  Tis a shame.

Yeah, this board is no longer used for RwA clan business.  Currently, Chelsea uses it to correspond with himself.  Sounds like RwA should have never been handed over to those self-riteous fools to begin with.  MI should be able to give you mod rights again.

Sorry to bother but we countered extremely weird situation today:

So I put 3 cows from the rope to leader and 1 extra casualty. There's a video down below. And the game was Shopper with CAK rules.

From the video you can see about everything. Pay attention to the last (3rd) cow, what happens is something I've never seen before.

I was accused a cow because of this and one of our retarded friend still thinks that but me and my other friend disagree.

Could you please let me know what you think! Cow or no cow? What happened?


Your friend is indeed retarded.
