  • the real problem...

    Everyone keeps blaming the TWD system about these 4 or 5 weak squads gettin into leagues but the system works fine... the real problem is with the players.
    Ya see... ppl in this game have such a huge obsession with their reps and how other ppl think of them that it kills the game. All of the top elite players in tw are crammed into 5-6 squads...thats only a handful of teams that are legitimate contenders. Instead of cryin about how these 'newbie' squads are gonna get into leagues.. the best solution wouldve been for the top players to spread out into 10-15 different squads instead of saturating just a handful... of course that'll never happen so leagues will never really be mad competitive
    Take a look at some of these rosters...look at grapevine for example, they got a bunch of solid wb's that'll never start any important games this season...audit, king baba etc..sure they might play vs mysticalz and shit like that but not vs anybody good or in the playoffs (i dunno whos rly starting but u get my point). Why would u wana be on a squad like this? I think im a decent player..above avg maybe, i get pretty consistent 1:1's vs the good squads...but even if i ever got invited to a final or syndicate or whatever, i know they probably would think im not good enough to start...so why would i wana join?? Its a game, i just wana play yo, i dont give a fuck bout what ppl think...so im on Rapid and i think i'll prob start alot of their games...which is 100x more fun than bein a benchwarmer for 95% of the season
    Theres alotta good players stuck on these squads that wont even play a game but they wont ?squadleave either b/c it helps their rep by bein on a top squad...know what im saying?? People are so obsessed with their rep and shit (which is pathetic..its a game) that it ruins any chance of real competition. The twd/l system is perfectly fine..so stop raggin on Avalonian and all them b/c its the palyers who fuck up the game

      What you say might be how you stand, but others play this game differently than you do. There are a handful of people that KNOW they won't start, but they stay on the squad they're on just the same. They have a reason for staying with that team, whether it be their egos, or whether they just have fun with them... just because you'd like to start for any squad you're on, doesn't mean it's how everyone else should feel. I'm not even saying this in spite of anything you said... you feel exactly how I feel, but I know for a fact there are those that don't feel like you or I.

        yea PaulOkenFold...i feel what ur tryin to say...

        Yea There's exceptions to the rule.. players who just wanna be on squads "with friends" and shit... Pallies is a good example of that. But u gotta look at it in perspective...how many squads like Pallies are there really? Look at how many squads dissolve everyday. I'll guarantee u that at least 1/2 the squads that make twl this year wont be around next season...so this basically throws out the whole argument about "stickin with friends" or whatever...know wat im saying man??

          You also have to remember, that a lot of squads don't have an exact lineup yet. This is the reason I hate these posts with starting lineups already. I really think a squad should let their players grow around them and the time to judge them is when the leagues actually start. I guaruntee you though, that most people that don't start in leagues will still stay with their squad, for one reason or another.

          Incuria is an example. Neither Molgan, Zerzera, Myself, Microstar, Fairlights, Lothlas, Eggy will start, but we'll still stay with the squad!

            Yea.. i guess some people are more into like...chatting and being social and w/e. But since i dont know any of these peeps in real life (and dont want to haha), I just wana play yo.
            i guess some ppl take it more seriously...i dunno, not too sound too cocky but its just a game to me.

              What the F! Paul? they said I still make a chance at startingposition! I'm gonna leave the squad you lying decieving bastards!

              If all the good people are in the good squads, you have to recruit people and become good as a squad.

                  you can't do that... there's not enough good ppl to go around cuz they all nerd out and cram into like 5 squads with their pimp ass bros
                  The twd selctioning is fine...if these guys would just spread out into more squads instead of faggin up into a handful, the league would be perfect

                      There are only like 25 people that are good at this game, I think the talent is more spread out this season than in any of the previous ones.

                          There's a big difference btwn YOU being good and your TEAM being good. I'd rather win a championship on a winning team ... than being the awesomest player in this game and still losing the championship.

                            what if you're gonna sit on the bench for practically the whole season except vs like brits and mysticalz? or only play in meaningless games when ur squads already locked up a playoff spot??? Theres so many good players who are gonna get shafted like that..and that just makes me wonder why anyoen would wana be on a suqad like that which is just gonna use you like 3 dolla hooker for twd matches and almost never play u in leagues?
                            Its like the running back that goes down with an ACL tear in preseason and watches on the sidelines as his team wins the Super Bowl...
                            anyways...whatever, im out.

                              and Mattey, the skill this season is spread into about 5 squads total per leauge, unless youre saying it was only 3 last year, that saying is flawed
