  • What's new for this week in TWL!

    Hey everyone,

    TWL preseason is over with, not without some bumps and bruises, but that's what preseason is for. I'd like to thank everyone who showed up this weekend, and lived through the momentary trips into hell with us. Special thanks go out to all the ER's and MODS who helped us get through our first weekend!

    The TWL website is up! You can visit is at http://twl.trenchwars.org to view this week's schedule, make predictions, and negotiate times for your matches. There are some functions that we are still working out, and will be fixed soon. Rosters and the full season schedule will be available asap!

    Let's go over a few notes on what was fixed after this weekend, and some other announcements:
    • Warp points have been fixed for all 3 leagues, and players will be warped out of the safe zones automatically if they sit there. The TWLB squad captains decided to use the autowarp into the flagroom ear for base games. This should prove to be quite interesting.
    • Do not cross line in TWLJ is now functioning. The rules have changed though. As of now, when a person spawns, they have 30 seconds to get to base, with a warning after 15 seconds, before the penalty is imposed. If a player is already inside the base, and they go past the Do Not Cross line, they will be penalized. The penalty for being out of base or crossing the line, is the loss of one life in the game for each offense.
    • Timer for TWLB is now set automatically, hosts no longer have to set the 30 minute timer.
    • The !score option has been modified to only reflect the current
      score of the game, the long lines of text were removed as people complained over the distraction. At the end of each game the complete score table will appear along with some neat additions. In TWLB games, the score table will now reflect the amount of times each player has killed the enemy terrier. There is also a column that shows who a player is subbed by, so people can easily do the math.
    • The !myfreq option is now functioning
    • The !list function has been repaired so that only the Ref can see the entire line, and squads can only see the line-up for their team.
    • Players who are substituted from a game, are now returned to their squad freq, no longer to spec chat.


    I'd like to also congratulate and welcome Demonic, Cuji, and Weaver as our TWL-Ref's. They will be assisting the TWL-Ops with match problems, helping out the referees during their games, TWL training, assisting in rules interpretations, and overall helping TWL run smoothly each weekend. If any of you have any questions about TWL, and an Op is not available, please ask them for assistance. In addition, trippinted <ER>, Pure_Luck <ER>, and Cpt.Guano! <ER> will be heading up our game referees for each week!

    Again, thanks to everyone for making this possible, players and staff alike! This should prove to be one helluva great TWL season!

    Ünited Stätes Toughens Image With Umlauts WASHINGTON, DC—In a move designed to make the United States seem more "bad-assed and scary in a quasi-heavy-metal manner," Congress passed a bill Monday changing the nation's name to the Ünited Stätes of Ämerica. "Much like Mötley Crüe and Motörhead, the Ünited Stätes is not to be messed with," said Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK). An upcoming redesign of the Ämerican flag will feature the new name in burnished silver wrought in a jagged, gothic font and bolted to a black background. A new national anthem is also in the works, to be written by composer Glenn Danzig and tentatively titled "Howl Of The She-Demon."

    Just one addition:

    If you lag out you have 3 minutes to return. Once you lag out your THIRD time you cannot return. You must be subbed or else you will be given 10 deaths.

    If you return and lag out within 10 seconds of returning, that will not count towards your three lagouts. This is so that if you don't know if your spiking has ended or not, you won't have to worry that you immediately lag out again and use up all your lagouts.

      If it doesn't already exist, can we get a rule about people hosting a game involving their own squad

        The rule does exist, but as I explained 700,000 times already... It was preseason, and we needed hosts. During the regular season this will not be happening.

            We're already making donations to keep the server running. Don't tell me we'll have to pay for Demonic to have a special education assistant (or sped aide if you prefer) as well.

                i lagged out in the preseason match and i only gone for 20 seconds, but when i came back it said i couldnt play becasue i had been gone for 3 minutes. Is this bug fixed, or will we still have to worry about not being able to play.
