      Nice!!

      Idk if it’s been done, but maybe do what we’ve done in the past, and get whoever is in charge of it to send out a mass email to all the registered players in TW and see if we can gain some interest again and have some old players return.

        TWDT H Y P E

        ty beam

        I would recommend beginning to use mmr as one of the factors during the rating processes. Lee posted a sample mmr rating to TWDT rating conversion that i appreciated and may be worth vsing for players with more than x mmr games played.

        Email callout sounds like a gr8 idea. I would imagine folks r more likely 2 return in da winter relative to other seasons of the year. + m m r !!!!

                  Dwopple and RaCka should be contacting people soon. It's a fair bit of work to get everyone's payment preferences. Also, Wirah's been a bit busy.

                  Don't forget that if you don't really need the cash, the server fund always needs some help. Quick donations plug as well. The donations site has been repaired but donations have really fallen off, so if TW's given you some joy, consider spreading the ol' holiday cheer. You'll even get a few pubbux for your generosity: www.trenchwars.org/donations

                    There were no information on the distribution of the prizes so I would suggest you leave the prize pool for next season.

                    Being #1 in a dueling league has historically been the biggest individual prize. I was #1 in the jav leaderboard after regular season but didn't care enough to ask about it because I obviously assumed its not gonna be rolled out as there are still no information how the prize money is distributed and in addition the information has altered between 2k and 3k USD.

                        This refreshes endlessly, and the mailbox for trenchwars_donate@yahoo.com doesn't exist

                        I've set up a $5/month recurring sub

                          Huge! A big thanks for that. Recurring subs of any amount really make a difference, and make it easier to budget.

                          Thanks for the heads up on the issues. I know you talked to Hook already to resolve some manually. He's going to continue to look at the donations code. It's only been tested a handful of times at this point. For recurring donations, we didn't come up with a great solution for how to provide the complimentary pubbux, but that's always something that can be checked every few months. You're the first person to set up a recurring sub via the page, so it's somewhat unknown territory. Thanks for bearing with, and thanks again for doing it.

                            No problem, I'm sure most of us can spare 5 bucks a month to be honest. Maybe a swanky banner on our TWD profile or something saying 'Supporter since MM/YY!' or something to encourage retention.

                              Also I went to match kass 5 bucks a month idea but paypal the only option. Even runescape can setup a monthly subscription without paypal. Any chance we can get the same?
