TWD Roster Limit? (Just asking, don't trip)

[Dameon Angell]

This poll stemmed from a debate on one of my chats that was going on when I walked in on it. The basic idea was...

"What if we had a roster limit on TWD and what size would we want it"?

The goal of this would to create more, smaller squads to provide more competition in the game.

The downside we saw, was that some squads might be reluctant to keep their older 'vet' players on the roster for that sake and possibly have a higher rate of squad elitism (Ie: being overly selective of players).

But, someone did counter that elitism was on the downfall because of arenas like ?go base and ?go wbduel exposing more, newer players to TWD play and getting them into squads they wouldn't of had before.

So the choice is yours, TWL uses a 35 player roster limit. I also put up the options 25, 40, and none, just to see what extremes, if any, people would look into.

I'm not saying there is a roster limit, I'm just simply asking looking for a wider opinion. And no, I won't be offended with everyone saying "none" because that's a perfectly fine option, don't feel forced into a number.

Well I think a roster limit of 35 is good, since it will be like TWL, keep things the same.

Yeah, I agree roster limits might create more competitive squads out there.

I tried to create a small competitive squad, but after 2 weeks I just gave up. It's quite hard to find good players out there right now, most are already taken.

But in a way a roster limit already exists, most squad captains know having a very large roster is not good. More people -- more problems.

Look at these squads in the past; Elitekrew, SaiyanRevolution some of them had around 80 players and where are they now?

Also players loyal to a squad get fed up if a squad gets too many players, since they just feel like they are a # in a large crowd and the squad itself is not loyal back to them.

40 or No limit since captains have different ideas how to keep a squad running - No point limiting it down to 25 since it would cause sk8 to lose half of their members, heh.

[Dameon Angell]

I find it funny that

1. Only 1 person voted for the TWL limit of '35'
2. Only 1 person who brought up the idea and wanted it to go public actually voted. I love democracy, lol.

Well, don't worry, doesn't look like many people wanna go that route anyways, so oh well.

Voted on what I sided for in that chat discussion

limit of 40 sounds good

I think there should be a limit of 40. It would encourage caps to ditch double squadders and clean there rosters more frequently...Ive seen the light regarding large rosters and cut flabby down from 70 it was a while a go to a more manageble 25, but to be realistic about 15 of those 25 play reguarly. (we're recuiting incidently :P )

Another change i would like to see is only one squad change every 24 hours to stop people hopping betweem 4/5 different squads in a day......

I agree with this. lets say a squad has a roster of 45 people now its 1 week to TWL and ppl start thinking " hey I might not get to play since 10 of us wont go to twl " I like it better if its 35 then everyone knows that they have a chance to play their squads games. just thinking people might get dissapointed when they get axed just b4 twl.

[Suh]

no limit personally

[Rab]

i favor a limit, but a very loose one. 40 is fine.

[Kim]

I don't see what a limit would do for TWD

[Merkaba]

Well Dameon pointed in the 1st message that by limiting the roster; it would encourage the creation of more squads and improve competition.

Like someone just said sk8 would lose half their roster, where would these players go? Well maybe create a another good squad out the ones that have to leave.

If TWL is 35 member limit, then TWD should be the same.

[AnZu]

If you want twd and twl to be the same, why don't we remove the limit from twl? Limiting roster sizes is pretty stupid, if someone likes to be in the squad but wants to play, he's forced to leave his friends and go to squad he doesn't like as much.

Laugh. Maybe some people just come online once a week and plays a twd game if they like, why should they be ditched in a ffa division. If they dont stay active they wont care about twl either which is a whole different thing.

We got only 5 ppl on the roster & it is working perfect.-No need to have 21681651 ppl on your roster.

[Mulkero]

I see no point in limiting the roster in twd nor in twl. Same goes for assistant limit in twd and some other limits. Isn't it the squad captains' business, not the league operator's? Captains can set their own limits.
