TWDT Season 20 Signups

[Majorcrisis2]

Hard for me to comment on other people's ratings because I'm a newbie, so can only really say how the ratings have affected me personally.

My 'Stars' rating on WB on TWD is the third worst out of the entire top 40, and I think I'm a bit better now than the last TWDTD, yet my rating was given as a 7 back then. I think I've also only played one game of TWDTD, years ago, not counting a borrow appearance for Criminal in the last TWDT.
This 7 rating made me a bad pick in the free agency. Might be better if ratings were mostly based on actual measurables with 'gut feelings' coming in afterwards.

Poseiden saying I should be a 7 in Base because I can aim is a bit flippant, I've literally played zero games of Base in TWDTB, and only started TWBD a little bit last month with Suspiria so I should be a six. Putting me to a 7 is going to put me on the bench again for another season, as I'd imagine there's 7s out there that have actually played TWDTB before, and captains are going to go with experience.

Also, increasing stars allowance per game looks like it makes it only more elite. Forcing in an amount of 6 star players or lowering the total stars count per game might help other scrubs like me get some game time.

Like I said, the difference between lower 7 star players and starting 7s is too much. Many seasons people get rated 7 in a ship they never play in. But because they can aim in another ship they get rated a 7. But making them a 6 is often broken too..

This sounds like the same problem I've described before - after around 10 rounds of drafting caps have picked everyone they really want and start talking about randomising the rest of the draft. I had suggested that maybe we could allow caps to pass, and if all caps pass then the remainder are randomised.

But what MC just said made me think of another way... dynamic ratings...

Dynamic Ratings (just one of many ways to do it)
After round X (e.g. 10) all remaining players have their stars reduced by 1*.
Picking continues as normal until the end of the draft.

Wasn't sure if I could play, but looks like I'll be moving later in the year. I will be taking a 2 week vacation between Feb-April, not sure the dates yet, small chance it will be during TWDT.

Sign me up.

PS: Captains, I'm done practicing/playing WB, 2019 was an anomaly, going back to normal 2006-2018 levels of not caring about that ship, so don't expect more than slightly better than 1:1 in TWDT-D if you pick me. I will continue to be a 19* talent in terr, of course.

Think the last 5-6 TWDT's I've signed up for/showed up for, I've not been allowed to play so fuck you guys. Fuck you (those responsible) for wasting my Sundays. Gotta say, my man Rough allowed me entry a few times because he's a stand up cat and has balls and doesn't tuck. Doesn't "nayy", mans "baa"s.

No sheep all GOAT.

Never lost a game with the guy either. He'd just set his crazy amount of medals down on the ground and the sheer weight of them shook the ground so bad our opponents would fall out their chairs. Pretty sure Iron Survivors house fell down once because of it. Think maybe some innocent people died too from building collapses but shit happens. Was good times though, great memories.

Yo may as well, Shout out to my mans. Luv ya Rough daddy. Ease who never reviewed my game. RacKa who likes me but dissolves the squad everytime I join. nevaLimpCriPPs for teaching me viagra can be snorted (through your pee hole), Zid for his knowledge of the game and Final Fantasy and my underrated padre ballSaq for being a Browns fan still after all these years. Know I missed a lot of yous but fuck, not going to write a book. Don't worry, might not of spoke of ya but I have yall in my thoughts.

Back to my noise. I'm not signing up and I hope this game dies and you assholes find a hobby that doesn't create bed sores on your asses and grants you a chance to feel the warm glow of sunlight. Hell.. Rab hasn't seen the sun since 1999 and walks on all fours eating raw fish and shit. I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

My closing statement.

Fuck you. And Fuck TWDT and all the dick sucking nepotism. Tired of it. Oh yea and big fuck you to Trasher for you pretending to be my friend, hope Russia invades your shitty country.

PS: Sorry for the rant, am incredibly suicidal and depressed.

IxaDor is a 6*, not a 7* and that is the only reason why he don't play. People likes him that's why he's rated 7*. Let the guy be a 6*, at least to help him inverse the curve. Kassius is solid for a new player, but as he said some players are rated over 6* without any experience, this is stupid. People in charge of ratings are usually really bad when it's about low star players.

6 stars are supposed to be a handicap. If any of the 6s are decent at all they are a huge advantage for their team. For people who have been playing a long time, and especially players rated highly in other leagues, we have to assume that if they cared at all about competing in twdt, they would be able to play a little and get up to a 7 star level. If they aren't willing to put in that effort and just want to be a 6 to show up on sundays and get added, then they don't deserve to play.

When's the plan start date for this? I need to know how long I've got before I need to start unrusting again and/or quitting for another year.

I think we need to start pushing for more signups as a group. Even though there is a decent number so far, it looks better than what it is. The talent is lacking compared to prior years. I put together a quick list of those that contributed last season as well as some names that have been seen around that have not signed up:


Signups needed:
Hulk - says no
Mcvicar
Ease - says no
Mythril
5 Turban
Rough
Vys - says no
Jurassic - says no
Iron survivor
10 Bacon
Lasenza
Thix - says no
Yeh
Caos
15 Rodney
Stayon
holy ship
Heaven
Murder
20 Shadowmere
Porkjet project dragon
Ricko Ricko
Undercut - says no
Jones Jones

25 Warportal - says maybe

[afghan]

Also, can you put numbers next to the names? I counted 147 but it’s hard to follow without actual numbers.

[zidane]

Jamal too.. and probably many more. Sign up!!
