TWDT-D


Silence vs. Kamikaze
50-37

Once again, Silence's unstoppable legend, Triple Crown Champion on Burn, and God-Emperor of Subspace Continuum 0.40 Trench Wars, carried his team to victory, as 2pacZ torched Kamikaze with a Herculean 19-6!

In his wake, mere mortals pee pee sock (11-7), Tiduz (10-6), Rasaq, Tripin, and Lee were caught in 2pacZ's resplendence.

On the losing side, rising EG superstar nosydawg (9-10) and skatarius (9-10) approached parity, while Cloth (8-10) and Kolvalchuk (7-10) were solid, but were let down by Yojimbo^ (3-10).

With that Silence improved to 5-0, and the only undefeated team in TWDT-D.

HOT: 2pacZ!
NOT: Yojimbo (3-10). One of Hercules' 12 labors must have been to clean the kitchen tiles, because 2pacZ mopped the floor with you.

---

Stark vs. Terrorist
50-41

The Cinderella story of Terrorist's 7-Star terrors running amok in TWDT-D and starting off to a sizzling 4-0 appears to have come to an end, as Stark felled them 50-41 in a hotly contested warbird match.

Racketeer (13-8) led all players, ahead of JAMAL (11-5), Ardour (11-9), Healt (10-9), and Exalt (5-10).

dreamwin (13-10) and Stayon (11-10) continued their strong play in warbird, but couldn't carry the likes of Little Buddha, Kado, and Rab.

HOT: Racketeer
HOT: JAMAL
NOT: Rab (3-10). Mr. Magoo in a Stormtrooper outfit. You looked like an extra on 24 shooting at Jack Bauer out there. On the upside you won't ever need a vasectomy since you're always shooting blanks.

---

Baratheon vs. Fire
50-29

Despite trading away the #1 warbird in the game in Best, Baratheon continued their ascent in TWDT-D unabated, as new addition Geio (13-6) proved a perfect fit, leading mainstay AFRI (13-7), rising 7-Star superstar Zidane (10-5), Turban (10-6), and M_M God.

Meanwhile, Fire took a 50-29 thrashing, as Trasher (9-10), Cres (8-10), Mythril (6-10), Sir Spider (5-10), Cape (0-5), and Shaun (1-5) proved ineffective.

HOT: Geio
HOT: Afri
NOT: Cape (0-5). Cape continued his string of awful performances, showing up late or not at all, then giving a half-assed effort. Cres forgot the most important rule to success in both TWDT and The Incredibles:

---

Paddington vs. Blooms
50-49

Paddington, incredibly, despite astronomical odds, FOUND ITSELF IN A 49-49 MATCH FOR THE THIRD TIME THIS SEASON IN TWDT-D!! I've never seen anything like that in my life.

After a pair of 50-49 losses, Paddington finally broke the curse, as Shadowmere put in a performance for the ages, amassing a Titanic 20-9 score. Wowza!

Siaxis (12-10) played Robin to Shadowmere's Batman-in-fucking-power-armor, alongside 24, Best, and Tiny.

New 49-49 curse owners Blooms saw Okyo (15-10) put in a stellar performance while Wiibimbo (9-10) added to his already unimpressive legacy, getting slayed 1v1 at the end, while maketso and pizikus also contributed 9-10s, and Handsomest-Person-In-Subspace Racka put in a 7-10.

HOT: Shadow-no-mere-mortal (20-9!!)
HOT: Okyo

[ogron]

TWDT-J


Stark vs. Fire
50-43

Stark had a strong showing this week, winning both wb and jav, as JAMAL (13-8) led them in both ships with spirited performances, alongside captain Mean Gene (13-9), Omega Red (9-7), Healt, and Ardour.

Mythril (12-10) and Shaun (12-10) did their best to galvanize their forces with superior performances, but were held back by Mikkiz, Trasher, and Milosh, while a 4-5 sub-in by Cres proved too little, too late.

HOT: JAMAL
HOT: Mean Gene
NOT: Trasher and Mikkiz. The basing legends put in a pair of 5-10s. 5-10s is also the amount of time Healt would last if he ever found himself inside of a vagina.

---

Baratheon vs. Kamikaze
50-31

House Baratheon clinched their first TWDT-J win of the season against the lowliest of opponents, but a win is a win is a win. Wax (14-8) and Zidane (13-6) led the Yellow Fury, as Geio, Turban, Lena, Gambler., and Stannis chipped in.

Cloth (11-10) put in a nice performance, but there was little else to cheer for as Kamikaze circles the drain, as morph, nosydawg, skatarius, and Yojimbo were uninspiring.

HOT: Wax
HOT: Zidane
NOT: Yojimbo (3-10). Yojimbo stumbled around unawares, seemingly barely conscious while getting repeatedly penetrated by Bullets, the name Bill Cosby gave his penis. Yoj then sobered up and found his way back home to play this jav match, where he fared little better.

---

Paddington vs. Silence
50-42

24 (12-7) led Shadowmere (11-10), new acquisition Best (8-8), Rampage, Conspiracy, Mad Jack, and Tiny to the W, unseating the undefeated javing behemoth and handing Silence their first loss of the season.

Despite impressive pushback from Rasaq (14-10), the superstar trio of Ease (6-10), Commodo (7-10), and Roiwerk (4-10) fell prey to numerous strays, and after erasing a 10 point deficit, Tiduz (4-10) summed up their round by catching a 3-fer. rip.

HOT: 24
HOT: Rasaq
NOT: TiduZ (4-10). The only other person today to catch a 3 in the face other than Thix's girlfriend.

---

Blooms vs. Terrorist
50-43

Blooms improved to 4-1 in TWDT-J, as they took down Terrorist with aplomb, with aprix (12-7), pizikus (10-9), Amnesti (9-8), maketso (7-9), and Racka closing the walls around them for the W.

Rough (11-10) and Stayon (11-10) couldn't buoy the performances of Dreamwin, Kado, and Downfall.

HOT: Aprix
NOT: Kado (5-9). Your performance was about as effective as a coathanger abortion, which, after seeing you jav, would be preferable, because hey, free coathanger!

[ogron]

TWDT-B


Terrorist vs. Blooms
15:00-0:21

This was an absolute curb-stomping, as Stayon (27-0) terred ahead of DOWNFALL (3.0 RPD), and Stung (3.1 RPD) for the Terrorists.

Dreamwin (76-20), Kado (60-11), Rough, ROWS, and Rab spidered for the winning side.

Blooms was atrocious, I'm not wasting my time listing your shitty scores.

HOT: Stung (3.1 RPD)
HOT: Dreamwin
NOT: Dutch Baser (35-50). Canadian troops stormed the beaches and sacrificed their lives to free your country during WWII, and I can see why: your aim is fucking terrible. You can keep sending us tulips, but if WWIII hits the only two lips I'm accepting are your sisters if you want us to save you again.

---

Paddington vs. Kamikaze
15:00-0:00

Best (104-55) was a force to be reckoned with in spider, leading Holy Ship (77-69), Jerome (71-47), Mad Jack, and inmate to the W, while Tiny (21-8) terred ahead of DSB (2.9 RPD) and 24 (2.7 RPD) in shark.

Skatarius undid the efforts of his team, including the likes of Cloth, Cyrus, Jimbei, Morph, and nosydawg by illegally adding players above 6-Stars and not in TWDT, as Kamikaze forfeited the match.

HOT: Best
NOT: Skatarius. When it comes to Thix, you should have just joined EA's DLC division if you wanted to add overrated trash to a game.

---

Baratheon vs. Fire
15:00-9:59

Stannis (32-6) terred ahead of Zidane (3.0 RPD), Geio (2.9 RPD), and Rodney (3.0 RPD) as Baratheon remained undefeated in TWDT-B, improving to 5-0 after dousing Fire 15-10.

Turban (108-35) had a huge resurgence in base, leading Solace (98-45), M_M God (70-42), AFRI (77-62, 3 Teks), and Mr. Homo.

For the Targaryens, Mikkiz (32-8) quarterbacked in front of Mythril (2.9 RPD) and milosh (2.7 RPD) in shark.

Trasher (86-43), Jatt (86-44), Shaun (81-42), TheWadoRooster, Cape, and Raizin were the fighters for the losing side.

HOT: Turban

---

Silence vs. Stark
15:00-3:29

What should've been a close game was instead an absolute mauling, with Stark missing several key basers, including Cripple, porkjet, and squallFF8.

Tiduz (25-0) completed the second ace of the day, ahead of Mattey (3.1 RPD) and Commodo (3.1 RPD).

pavement (77-38), SPIDERHATE (76-35), Ease (71-34), Rasaq, and wbm spidered for the Silencers.

House Stark saw Mean Gene (16-8) smartly move into terr, ahead of Beasty, Hulk, and Markmrw in shark.

Their spiders were JAMAL (71-47), Omega Red (52-38), Ardour, and i.d..

HOT: pavement
HOT: SPIDERHATE
NOT: i.d. (48-46). Congrats on going barely positive. Your teammates hope the trend continues and you get Bear-ly mauled.

By a bear. Near a mall. I'll see myself out.

Players of the Week


WB of the Week: Shadowmere (20-9) and 2pacZ (19-6).
Shadowmere was an absolute monster in warbird once again, clutching a 49-49 game on top of dropping 20 kills. Ridiculous!
2pacZ was unstoppable, keeping Silence undefeated in warbird and dropping the hammer on Kamikaze.


Jav of the Week: aprix (12-7) and 24 (12-7).
aprix led Blooms over Terrorist's TWLJ-quality line with icewater in his veins, leading his team in a 50-43 route.
24 did much of the same, MVP'ing over the likes of Ease, Commodo, and Roiwerk to clinch a 50-42 win over Silence's previously undefeated line. Niceness!


Baser of the Week: Best (104-55)
Best shined in a tough TWDT-B match against a superior opponent, sizzling them for 104 kills when no other player got out of the 80s. Dominant!



Players of the Week: Turban and Zidane
While Best also managed a 3-0 on his new squad, Turban felt he had something to prove after being traded for the second time this season, taking down the squad that drafted him in two leagues, crushing Fire with a 10-6 in TWDT-D and a scorching 108-35 in TWDT-B when no one else was even close to 90, while stomping Kamikaze in TWDT-J in-between.

Zidane was also instrumental in leading Baratheon to its first 3-0 week, notching a 10-5 in warbird, a 13-6 in javelin, and a 3.0 RPD in shark as the 4x TWLJ Champion expands his already impressive resumé to all three leagues. Kudos!

Honorable Mention: Shadowmere. A ridiculous 20-9 and a strong 11-10 in javelin definitely put Shadow up for consideration for Player of the Week, helping Paddington finally break the 49-49 curse!

[ogron]

Player of the Week History

WB of the Week


Week 1: Ease (15-9).
Ease outdueled Geio in a thrilling 1v1 finale, clinching the W for Silence.

Week 2: Best (18-9)
Best made his TWDT debut in style, massacring Kamikaze with a legendary performance.

Week 3: Raazi (15-9)
Raazi stunned a crowd of 50+ onlookers as he took on two Paddington warbirds 1v2 down 48-49, slaying them both and clinching a critical victory for Fire, and wowing spec chat with his superior play. Kudos!

Week 4: Shadowmere (16-9) and Vys (11-2)
Vys was an absolute monster in helping Baratheon clinch their first TWDT-D victory alongside Best, as the duo trampled over Stark. Shadowmere stomped the Kami with the highest score of the week in a 50-28 romp.

Week 5: Shadowmere (20-9) and 2pacZ (19-6).
Shadowmere was an absolute monster in warbird once again, clutching a 49-49 game on top of dropping 20 kills. Ridiculous! 2pacZ was unstoppable, keeping Silence undefeated in warbird and dropping the hammer on Kamikaze.


=========================================


Jav of the Week


Week 1:Mean Gene (12-3).
MG slammed Blooms in TWDT-J, leading his team to the promised land.

Week 2: Shaun (18-10)
Shaun was an absolute juggernaut, despite his team getting trounced 50-39, showing the complete repertoire of javelin skills, and likely finding himself on the radar of several TWLJ squads looking to boost their ranks.

Week 3: Dreamwin (18-7)
Dreamwin gobbled up Paddington in a tight 50-44 match featuring multiple veterans, posting a Herculean effort which was very much needed to come away with the win.

Week 4: Dreamwin (15-9)
Dreamwin scored a 15-9 to crush Stark in a massacre, leading Terrorist to a 3-0 this week with impressive outings in wb (14-5) and spider (114-48) as well, and could have very easily been the Player of the Week. Nice work!

Week 5: aprix (12-7) and 24 (12-7).
aprix led Blooms over Terrorist's TWLJ-quality line with icewater in his veins, leading his team in a 50-43 route. 24 did much of the same, MVP'ing over the likes of Ease, Commodo, and Roiwerk to clinch a 50-42 win over Silence's previously undefeated line. Niceness!


=========================================


Baser of the Week:

Week 1: Cripple (116-39). He got the most amount of kills in the least amount of time this week, leading Stark to a solid victory over Blooms.

Week 2: Mattey (3.1 RPD) and Commodo (3.1 RPD)
For a complete shutdown of a good basing squad, smothering them with a clockwork cram and coming up with a cold-blooded 15-2 win over Kamikaze.

Week 3: Cripple (161-55)
This was maybe the biggest score in TWDT-B history, and in a 15 minute game no less. Wowza! Stark unfortunately managed to lose the match 15-14, but through no fault of his own, putting up a Colossal performance. Great work!

Week 4: nosydawg (111-65)
nosydawg managed to outkill the likes of Trasher and Kess in a 15-12 thriller, MVP'ing the game and leading Kamikaze to the upset victory over Fire. Kudos!

Week 5: Best (104-55)
Best shined in a tough TWDT-B match against a superior opponent, sizzling them for 104 kills when no other player got out of the 80s. Dominant!


=========================================


Player of the Week

Week 1: Dreamwin.
Dreamwin is an idiot and not anywhere near as good at this game as he thinks he is, but he performed across all three leagues this week as Terrorist went 3-0, with a 15-9 in wb, 16-7 in jav, and 105-49 in spider, and earned the Player of the Week.

Week 2: Ease.
Silence was the only squadron to go 3-0 this week, as Ease led the foray through TWDT-D with a 10-9, TWDT-J with a 15-8, and TWDT-B with an 83-36. While the warbirding match over Fire and basing match over Kamikaze were fait accompli, the javing match required both deft skill and aplomb to navigate and come out with the victory over a TWLJ Finals line featuring both talent and synergy in Stayon, Rough, and Dreamwin, and he came through with flying colors, MVPing the match.

Week 3: Stayon.
Stayon led Terrorist with a superb 14-4 to knockoff Kamikaze in TWDT-D, a solid 10-8 in TWDT-J versus a recalcitrant Paddington, and a game-high 88-32 over Kamikaze in TWDT-B, as his team went a perfect 3-0 this week, leading the league.

Week 4: Weak and Commodo
Weak was immaculate in TWDT-D this week, notching a 10-0 ace in warbird over Kamikaze, then following it up with an MVP over Baratheon in TWDT-J, sizzling them with a 14-7 outing, going 2-0 for the week and helping Paddington to a 2-1 performance.

Commodo beasted a hotly contested 50-39 TWDT-J match, amassing a Herculean 15-6 to clinch the W, then managed a 3.0 RPD sharking a 15-4 massacre of Blooms alongside Mattey, going 2-0 for the week and leading Silence to a perfect 3-0.

Week 5: Turban and Zidane
While Best also managed a 3-0 on his new squad, Turban felt he had something to prove after being traded for the second time this season, taking down the squad that drafted him in two leagues, crushing Fire with a 10-6 in TWDT-D and a scorching 108-35 in TWDT-B when no one else was even close to 90, while stomping Kamikaze in TWDT-J in-between.

Zidane was also instrumental in leading Baratheon to its first 3-0 week, notching a 10-5 in warbird, a 13-6 in javelin, and a 3.0 RPD in shark as the 4x TWLJ Champion expands his already impressive resumé to all three leagues. Kudos!

RIP having to take melatonin before TWDT-J started. Was yawning from the start and couldn't do more.

Paddington vs. Kamikaze
15:00-0:00

Best (104-55) was a force to be reckoned with in spider, leading Holy Ship (77-69), Jerome (71-47), Mad Jack, and inmate to the W, while Tiny (21-8) terred ahead of DSB (2.9 RPD) and 24 (2.7 RPD) in shark.

Skatarius undid the efforts of his team, including the likes of Cloth, Cyrus, Jimbei, Morph, and nosydawg by illegally adding players above 6-Stars and not in TWDT, as Kamikaze forfeited the match.

HOT: Best
NOT: Skatarius. When it comes to Thix, you should have just joined EA's DLC division if you wanted to add overrated trash to a game.

[Rasaq]

So why is 6* jav Rasaq not the jav of the week? Outperformed two 9*'s...and they didn't kill much more than the next guy on their squad.

[Zeebu]

children backwards kinda sounds like nerdlick

[ogron]

So why is 6* jav Rasaq not the jav of the week? Outperformed two 9*'s...and they didn't kill much more than the next guy on their squad.

Your team lost, you'd need more than 14 to get Jav of the Week without getting the W. A 12-7 on the winning team is going to get it over a 14-10 on the losing side.

Drop 18 then we'll talk : )

That said, you definitely deserve a HOT for your performance, and I've added it to the article. Great play!

[ogron]

I've also added a Player of the Week history (I replaced the standings section just for this week to stick it in -- you can still see the overall standings here)

WB of last week and WB of next week checking in and checking out. Back to retiring, see you all tonight

[Stayon]

I believe everyone here!

Rasaq overpowering 9's, Vys being wb of the week, Skatarius still making playoffs..League Operators not having an extremely burned up public image with no salvation possible!

Great matches, keep having faith, hold the hand of the person next to you, scarf in the air and sing!
