[six`franz] it's ok, try not to waste rope unless it's sure thing. minimize mistakes

Right, Franz ;P

xDDD  "try not to"

does not mean I am immune too ;p

yea avi is right, there's no button to replay like normal threads.  must be problem that only admins can use that one thread

i caught u cue

but but.. I was doing my normal reporting routine, and I would normally never forget something like this, but SPW interrupted me on snoop!

so.. it was HIS fault he got left out

harrr

oh so it's about the two rankings? the season rank and overall rank? it prevents the overall rank from getting in easy just by playing the minimum games with a crappy win%? is that it?

what is the point of a win% requirement?  whatever way you get the points to get a high rank, what does win% matter?  If you only play really skilled and high rated players, then your win% might not be amazing, so don't punish these kind of players...  Maybe I just have to hear the other side of the argument to understand, so if anyone wants to explain, i'll hear it.

"x games per week" I also don't see the point of having this restriction.  I agree with darkz

as for any best-of-X, I'd like to hear the reasoning for making them worth different than single games because I'd feel that they should just be treated equally.

1 month seasons I never really liked, always seemed too short, never enough time for lazy people during playoffs.. so 2 months should be good, or something around that if others agree.  if it's 2 months, then I think I can understand going with top8 for playoffs... so I can agree on that.  also if it's 2 months, 40-50 games minimum should be fine.

if people noob-bash, doesn't the amount of points they get just get smaller and smaller so that it's not worth it anymore?  has this ever been a problem?

I dunno about that play 40% of all players requirement.. sounds hard for some people maybe due to timezones or whatever... but I guess I'm not totally against it if everyone wants it.

reporting best of N games or single reports, both seem fine, I don't think it matters either way, so just pick one way.

50 game minimum for playoffs seems ok I guess.. maybe just Top 4 though?  should encourage people to play games and fight for the spots, and it's first season.. so maybe expand to more in future if needed?

partytime# would be best, for sure.  just gotta remember it.  I've been using it lately anyway.

10 games limit per season?  well how long is a season?  and only 4 in a week?  hmm, they seem a bit strict from the start.. maybe expand them for first season?  just a thought

avoid saved maps, yes please ;d

yea gj monkey, till we meet again >:}

You know avirex, you are a hopeless case, unable to accept other opinions than your own. You don't even have a clue what the meaning of a discussion is. Well go on with your stupid ego show, i'll just sit back and laugh from now on. My time is too valuable for this.

chakkman seriously?  avi's post was actually very normal and he brought up some points that directly answered your argument that maps would be only 2 turns.  it seems more like you are the one who is unable to hear his opinion just because he usually has crazy posts.  there was no ego in his post.

On long maps. And if i take a look at what maps usually get played it is mostly linear 2 turners. Even if you play on a map that requires 3 turns its most likely that not the faster but the more safe player wins. Anyway, i'll always prefer TTRR to 30 secs RR but if you like it to be in the league, why not. I still think TTRR is a logical progression from 30 sec RR. That's why it kinda replaced it i guess.

I actually still prefer rrtt, but the people wanting 30s rr have their reasons. I wouldn't mind playing 30s rr if I was forced to because I can understand if a player likes it better.

Oi Turan, I'm surprised to read you here. Would be a good moment for a comeback, an Elite-League will starting soon

And its time some germans making a comeback, nowadays its almost a german- free wormsworld (comparing years ago). I hope you starting a comeback, I really hope

Also I still hope others come back like Soldier61, Chocoyote, LopDarkAngel, NoFear, Bolf, Tweenies, Spalding, JiP, Rebell, White Rabbit etc. But this will be a dream for the most of them. ^^ Good old Giga time, I rly miss it.

ahhh Giga.. you made me check my old Giga replays, and omg this one vs Soldier61 was so funny.  I really miss elite+moles!

isn't the one and only idea in roperace to be faster than ur opponent? timetrial is better at achiving this than 30 sec rr. timetrial = less draws (better for league)

not necessarily.  in rrtt, yes you have to be faster than your opponent, but you also have more chances to mess up and still win since you have 3 fresh tries to win.  in 30s rr, you rely on your first worm.  you still have to be faster than your opponent to try to win, but any mistake is way more costly in this style.  it adds more pressure and forces players to be more consistent.
