Question regarding the roster lock

[bloodzombie]

cig, in theory, they'd be caught by the same bots that catch double squadders. I don't know how well they work though.

[bloodzombie]

thats your fancy way of asking if banzi can play, and the answer is yes.

I didn't want to assume that anyone paid any attention to our recruiting to know the situation.

[Cig Smoke]

Ya thats what i was thinking too, but i know of ppl who are still double squading too so i guess it isnt 100% accurate. I know atleast 1 person but i garentee there is more then 1 doin it and more then 1 squad doin it

Just curious to the matter, what would the punishment be? would the squad be punished or just the person? or both?

[bloodzombie]

I don't know the answer, but it seems stupid to punish squads if there's no way for them to check. The person should be booted from leagues permanently.

[Cig Smoke]

Ya but i garentee that most of the squads who recruited the person know atleast his most recent name.

funny way of looking at it

[PaulOakenfold]

Squads should be the smart ones and know who that person is. Isn't it a little suspicious to recruit an awesome guy that's said he's only been playing for a week? In some cases this might be true though, some guy might say "Oh... umm, I just haven't played for years, but I used to all the time," but I can guaruntee in almost all cases, the squad is going to know the person behind the new nickname.

[bloodzombie]

Couldn't one guy also have two known names without anyone knowing it was the same guy?

Not with the !register system.

Not with the !register system.

what's that?

[PaulOakenfold]

Very good question my dear Bloodzombie. The !register system was set up as a new means of checking double squadders. Each player that plays for TWL (or TWD I believe) can only !register with one name, and MUST type !register to one of the bots before playing a league game. Instead of having a bot check for ips of double squadders, bots can just not allow people to play if they aren't !registered.

The soft lock is so stupid people should be able 2 change squads and going from twl squad 2 another one during the soft lock shouldn't be anything these locks are confusing and some people get lost in these bullshit rules and there goes a whole season of twl wasted.. Yes I'm talking about myself. I admit I'm stupid but I still wanted 2 play a twl game that wasn't pre-season.

When we play ava in week 11 to make up for the server going down last week, will all ava be able to play or only those pilots that were able to play against us in week 4?

That sounds like something squad captains must know about.

Acidmouse, why is your site layout exactly like Somethingawful.com's?
Yes it is Bloodzombie, though I thought most captains already knew about it, I guess I was wrong.
