Trench Wars League Deathmatch

[Randedl]

This Friday, at 8PM EST, Trench Wars will witness the return of an event that was introduced last Trench Wars League.

The idea was originally thought up and hosted by then Webbb <ER>. The idea of the game is to hold a massive, multi-freq deathmatch where the teams are established according to TWL rosters.

Every team in TWL (TWLD/TWLJ/TWLB) is invited, no matter the number of players, or the number of leagues they are in. There is no limit on the number of players a squad can have present at or in the game, whether you have two or twenty people, the more the merrier! The only restriction is that they must be on your TWL roster (sorry to people who aren't on a TWL squad).

The purpose of these games is to essentially kick off each TWL weekend. The game will be held every Friday, with the time varying from week to week. This is to ensure that people around the world get a chance to play it.

The gameplay is very simple, every player in the game gets 10 lives to start with. Each squad will have it's own designated safe zone from which to start with. Once the game begins it's every squad for themselves. The last remaining squad with players in the game wins!

Now for the new and improved aspect of the game! The winning squad from each week will be placed into a final game, which will be held on the Friday of the week of the TWL finals. There will be twelve rounds (10 regular season and two playoff weeks) to qualify for the final game. In the event that a squad repeats as a weekly winner, the next squad that remains and has not already qualified for the final will be invited.

Further, there will be a guest spot each week open to a TWD squad. This squad will be picked according to the choosing of the squad that won the previous week's TWLDM. A squad can win a second week and earn this right a second week.

I think that's all for now, anything that needs to be added will be added in the near future.

This was an idea originally devised by Webbb Llama and with a map created by Witness. Thanks to Wit and Matthew <ER> for map contributions this season. See you all Friday!!

The idea is ok, but basing squads will win becasue they have 30 people. If they show 80% of that, whats to stop them besides another basing squad ? =/ Sure a dueling squad can compete, not against 60 basers :<

Well its to compete or just for fun, if its for fun, who cares who wins..

Awesome. I remember last season wanting to be apart of this, and now that I am it's pretty cool.

To all those wishing to be apart of such a light-hearted competition, which serves to ease the tension and nerves of players involved in TWL games, my advice would be to keep playing what you're good at, and never give up. If you're serious about the competition and have the right attitude, you'll get noticed. Sure this is a game, but in TWL, it's more of a sport. You need your game face. But all in all, in TWL, much like sports, it is just a game. All of us play differently - the only difference is, some people play to win, and most play just to play.

And, of course, that is what TWL is. Everyone involved plays to win.

Sorry, kinda went off on a rant there, but a year ago this day I was getting into the competition and got impatient because I figured, "Hey it's a game, why won't I get invited?" Heh, I've learned much since then. For those who wish to be apart of TWL, those lessons are up to you to discover.

Good luck to all squads involved, and to those players wishing to someday be involved. On top of TWL - let's have some fun!

if any of your squad's names are spelt wrong on the map, i'm the one to yell at :P. I'll pretend to fix it when you do.

:up: :up: :up:

Not sure if I will make it though.

Well I could bet money on that Diso won't win any single game. 4pm est (11 Finnish time) on a fucking friday? I don't really know how many nerds play this game (European) but I believe that most of the Euro players who are in TWL are guys with lives, that go out on friday & saturday to party and stuff... It's like watching Diso, from my point of view. On sunday we have like 15 people on, before I leave home on friday we have like 2. :P

This is awesome

This should appease the European Gods, and if not, then it is not all that difficult to schedule a 'European TWLDM', is it? Nothing to get worked up about.

Need a new map for this one, would be far too crowded in any of the jav maps I know. But not a bad idea.

[Nimrook]
