TWL Qualification Rules and Updates!! READ THIS!!

[Nethila]

All playoff Squads that participated in the previous Trench Wars Leagues playoff will be granted automatic admission to play in this season. At a date to be later disclosed by the League Operators, the highest-ranking TWD Squads in each division will fill the remaining TWL spots of that division. Squads that dissolved at any time during the previous season, or prior to the new season's start, will have to re-enter Trench Wars Leagues through the TWD system. Squads that intend to return must have at least ONE captain from previous season.

In order for a TWD Squad to qualify for TWL consideration, that Squad must meet all Trench Wars Leagues requirements. In addition, the Squad must have played a minimum of 15 matches in the specific division (Basing, Dueling, Javelins) they are attempting to qualify for. Squads that have not met the minimum 15 games played requirement will not be considered for Trench Wars Leagues qualification. Also, the average rating of squads the squad played (aka Ave R on twd lader) will also be considered during qualification. It is adviced to at least get it above 1000.

Returning Squads

the following squads will be returning to their respective leagues if they choose to accept the invitation, which will be send out in a later date

TWLD: -Final-, Pirates, Ancients, Sk8, Pallies
TWLJ: -Final-, Pirates, Sk8, Ancients, Disoblige
TWLB: -Final-, Anti-Scrub, Basingcrew, Disoblige

Spider-Limit

The TWL Ops have decided that there will be NO 4-spider limit this season.

TWL Rules

TWL Ops are now working on fixing/revamping the twl rules. Once done, an update will be posted.

TWL Starting Date

Mentioned in many threads, the starting date for twl has not yet been set. Neither has the lock for twd ladder. a ONE-week will be given when a date has been set.

Update: Feb 7, 2006

TWL Maps
There will be no custom squad twl maps.

TWL Rules
Rules are now being finalized. Once it's done, it will be posted.

Starting Date
As of now, a starting date has not yet been set. Please be patient as we try not to make the league a total disaster when it starts. =/


Update: Feb 9, 2006

Tie Breaker
At the end of the season, when 2 or more teams have the same record (win/loss) and are fighting for playoff spots, the teams that get in the playoffs will be decided by the method of Head to Head. However, if a 3-way-tie or even a 4-way-tie occurs during Head to Head comparison (meaning a beat b, b beat c, c beat a, etc), we will go with +/-.

Update: Feb 12, 2006

Update on TWLD
Due to endless whining, bitching, complaining from fellow staffer Fruitang, Pallies is now been invited back to TWLD, which means there will be only 11 TWLD spots open for TWD squads. Cheers

We will keep you updated asap when any new information comes out. Thank you

I talked to PL, and he said he didn't want to limit players, but of course all i can think of is the 1 terr limit, the 2 sharks limit, the no levi limit so on and so forth.


EDIT: they were limited to produce a better quality basing, cause 7 sharks repping is gay. Guess what, a 4 spid limit would make things a lot better, and really show who has someone talented enough to fly a 'specialty' ship and who just has mindless drones.

Nickname I like your signature :wub: :wub:
Play whatever line you want!

[Cig Smoke]

Im sort of glad there is a 4 spider limit considering there really arent many specialty s hip players atm. Plus Ice is already a favorite in LB dont need to make them even stronger by making squads play vs necro in jav.

[dads revenge]

special ships are esily controled by good spiders it would be a lame duck in a league match

spoken like someone who has never played vs a good specialty ship guy in a twlb match.

The general opinion (tell if I'm wrong here) is that a 5 spid team will beat a 4 spid 1 jav team more often than not ... each team being equal (yeah yeah, you can interpret "equal" as in they'll win 50% of the time each).

If I were a betting man, I'd put a [good 4 spid, 1 jav team] to win 1 out of every 4 games vs a [good 5 spid team].

Actually nickname that was spoken like someone that beat ice yesterday while necro was in jav. Isn't he considered to be the best jav right now? -Peace

[Joe_]

Lol, you got peace'd

[PaulOakenfold]

Isn't he considered to be the best jav right now? -Peace

You're probably right, but then again, no one plays specialty ships enough outside of ?go base, so being the best base jav out right now isn't saying much, or anything really.

[T Mac-1]

Well if sk8 had to have a specialty ship, it would prolly be demonfaze in jav, so we could manage.


BTW: same 35 player limit as last year?

[Nickname]

i'd also like to point out how you beat necro once (who was even playing with him, there best line? i doubt it ) in a twd game. Clearly your the champs....except didn't HP beat you right afterwards, so i guess they are champs

[Creature]

The 50% roster rule is being axed?
