I'm aware, thx ;)
Just haven't had time recently, I'll write a description today evening.

Can someone with a decent camera record a video showing how to do these LG+JP+FP combos on a keyboard? My fingers are so slow that I can hardly shoot a LG petrol.

Just a side note: Elo rating system was designed for tournament-based competitions, in which you play against an assigned opponent and have no way to avoid anyone. In leagues where you can freely choose your opponent, like TUS, the system used in NNN (I don't know what's its official name) works a lot better, because it actually encourages you to play against the top players, and your own rating is dynamically changed based on everyone else's performance.

But TUS is small enough that we can easily live with Elo.

I'd like to host another TT parachute race challenge, please :)

That's why I'm hosting this tournament. I want to see if the gameplay gets affected positively, negatively or at all ;)

I haven't read any post in this topic because it's too long, but I'd like to point out that there had been a constructive discussion before these changes were decided on. So your protest is a bit too late :)

Almost nobody complained when I suggested abolishing the no knocking rule, I don't understand how did it get so controversial in this topic ;D

Disk problems most likely, see if installing WA on an external HDD or a ramdisk solves the problem.

edit: impo: that too

Thanks for uploading my linear maps, MI. For some reason, TUS rejected them when I tried back in the day (saying that the file format was incorrect)

why do you want rope knocking in elite and t17? I have no opinion, just asking. There was always rule about knocking (since I can remember)
Accidental knocks can lead to confusing situations (look here at 5:49), sometimes a player must take an extra care not to knock a worm instead of just doing what he wants.
This rule takes away some skill and creativity from the scheme, a lot of intermediate moves rely on knocking the worms around to optimal positions.
Moreover, it is nothing more than just a historical rule, we still play with it only because knocking was disabled in the elite league channel in ancient times. Why not simplify the schemes and allow it?

Schemes / Re: Top Scheme Ideas

Some of my ideas:

BnG:
- maps divided in the middle (look at my recent bng maps: https://www.tus-wa.com/groups/Q/maps-choices/ ), no closeness rules
- one girder, no usage restrictions
- infinite shotguns and teleports
- /ts

Elite:
- allow rope knocking

Hysteria:
- less sudden death time (5 seconds)

Roper:
- 2 worms per team
- a rule I came up with a while ago: ALL crates need to be collected before attack (that sometimes prevents an instant gg if someone falls without taking a crate)

Team17:
- allow rope knocking

TTRR:
- more worms per team (5?)

WxW:
- allow a variation free of weapon luck ( https://www.tus-wa.com/schemes/scheme-628/ )

Quote from: Anubis on March 01, 2013, 07:52 PMI don't have a rating so I could join? xD
Quote from: Statik on March 01, 2013, 08:12 PMI can join too, I don't play rr leagues at all ;D
Quote from: Husk on March 02, 2013, 11:30 AMcueshark could join aswell, so there's alrdy the medalists lol
Statik wouldn't qualify due to his tus classic rating (regardless of what he says), Cueshark doesn't qualify due to his TRL rating (re-read my post). ;)

In my opinion 1600 rating is a nice division line. Maybe throw in some extra rules, like no successes in challenges or previous RR cups.
Making people decide by themselves will lead to many disagreements about who should play which cup.
