IMPORTANT: TWD Reset, Rule change, Roster limit.

[kthx]

Umm you were talking about new players axed from rosters, not entire rosters added into those who were axed. Seriously man.

Shut the hell up kthx.

I don't think the ops were trying to guarantee new squads, but maybe a spread of the active talent so that TWD overall becomes more active? Lets say there were 5 squads with 55 players. That's 20 players over cap, and (5*20) 100 players that will now be squadless. Of them, It's safe to assume 35% are inactive/semi active, so that leaves around 65 players. Yeah, some may have not seen they were axed yet, but the bulk HAVE joined other squads and there is MUCH more diversity in the squads playing TWD (typically in BD)

Before, it was a few squads, mainly Penetrate and Portal but also Tenure, Expert/Mute, Hit, and LEGO actively bd'ing

Now, it's Mute, Tenure, -Tenure-, Dinkledoinks, Abstract, LEGO, Hit, Penetrate, Portal, Gun, Paladen, and I'm sure more to come.

The same squads that were once super-squads with 60 people are just as active games-arranged-wise, but there are now more players making others squads active that weren't as active before.

That's just BD too, I'll log onto TWD.net sometimes and see like 7-10 games going on at once.. there's definitely an activity spike, just let it settle in. We haven't had defined "elite" squad/player hierarchies in years anyway, and with selectivity in recruiting I think they will be re-established.

In the end this isn't about how many new squads are made, its about increasing the overall activity of TWD.

So do you guys have hard numbers/graphs etc. that you are keeping track of so we can actually see the effect that the roster cap is having?

I know theres this.. http://twd.trenchwars.net/arobas/twd_games_state.php

but is there someone who has calculated the average number of twd games over x days of time, and is ready to compare it with the activity over the next x days?

[Omega Red]

i thought the main reason for this was to increase both activity and squad count since they both seem related. otherwise it would just be the same number of squads and more or less the same activity level, and just the same people playing.

[concealed]

imo the roster cap is a success

thoughts?
