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:
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!

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.
