      Maybe just maybe we could all use the same map for TWLB but be allowed to decorate it like make it our home field
      I like ur opinion pure but it kinda sounds like the idea of someone who wants to jerk around and not compete at all. I don't mean you I just mean the versatile maps that will be put in it kinda sounds more like fun the hardcore competetive basing.
      Like I said above I think the part where squads have their home field and get to decorate their own map is cool but thats possible without having map changes.

        if you haven't noticed, there most likely will be a map change anyway. And i mean a group of maps that people choose from. Or the map would have to be approved. But besides that, it would force squads to be more versatile by cramming and lining or learning to use a second entrance or whatever else.

            TW can definitely benefit from some more variety of maps. People play the same map over and over and over for months/years without seeming to care. The league jav map is just horrible and it's been that way for years. Pretty bad when you take 2 years off and you can't see a difference when you return.

            I think a better idea for league would be to have 3 or 4 different maps and week 1 would be map A. Week 2 would be map B... It would definitely add some excitement and strategy knowing you can't play the same game over and over. You'd have to be more versatile, and maybe learn some new skills you didn't know you had in ships that seem familiar now.

            Aenima had a good thought. There is no reason you can't have more then one base in an arena. So there could still be one official map. Hell, you could even have each base be one of the four directions from spawn. Up from spawn would be the current base. Left, right and down would all be different, and how strange would it be to defend/attack left, right or down for fr.

                Also, there has to be certain guidelines for what's possible to change.
                See above.

                If you can get around time constraints or whatnot, it would be cool, sort of like a sports schedule where about half your games are home and about half are away.

                  You could always change the 1 entrance in 2 entrance's falling within the lining, but to far apart to cram.

                    I like the maps idea:

                    However we would have to define certain rules first before creating maps. For example, define what ships can play, the numbers of each ships, maximum amount of entrances, etc. I am sure most of the TWLB squads would have great fun using their own home arena; however what would we do for TWD and stuff like that? Would squads still qualify on the same map?

                      Sounds like a good idea, only with one condition, each team plays each team twice. Forcing teams to actually base in a new enviroment to them would make for much more interesting basing, and make it much easier to smash the cram for line friendly basing! DOWN WITH THE CRAM!

                        You're not forcing anyone to base on a NEW envirnoment, since everyone will have the same access to all the maps.. the only advantage a squad gets is that they drew the thing, so they can make it the way they like it.. because of this, there woulodn't really need to be guidelines either. if a squad wanted to make a flag in open space with no walls at all (it wouldn't be much fun adn I would hope nobody would do that) it would still be fair for both sides.

                          But do we really want to make a twld with a flag a possibility? I love this idea, I hope we explore it further, but I think some limits need to be established. I'm just not sure what they should be.

                            So wait, it'd go down something like this?

                            1. 4-5 maps are created, thoroughly tested, and accepted by the TWB community before the season starts.
                            2. The TWLB returning squads, and the TWDB rising squads all choose 1 map from the list to be considered their "home" map. This happens before the season starts, and squads are commited to that map for the entire season.
                            3. During the season, each team will play an (as much as possible) equal number of matches on their home map and on away maps.
                            4. during playoffs, the team with the better season rec gets the home field advantage (So, for example, in the Diso vs Spastic final diso would've got the first match on their map, and Spastic the second on theirs, and then back to Diso's map for the theoretical third match)

                            If that's the way it'd work, sweet awesome. Only problems I see are making enough pracb arenas available for each different map, and making sure the list of home games/arenas is easily accessible by both players and staff. It'd be nice to get a little variety in the maps, but make sure they all retain the TW feel (one way in, one flag).

                              Wadi, exactly what i'm thinking. Only thing i would add is like they could decorate the map they choose(out of the 4 or 5) with like their own color scheme and logo... but not actually change the base.

                                hmmm if ther is 4-5 maps to choose from and say Cripples choose the same map as Diso chooses for there home map..and cripples have an "away" game vs diso wouldnt it sorta be like a home game considering its the same map...while some squads mite get stuck playing 4-5 squasd w/ 4-5 different maps and crips mite get 4-5 squads w/ 2-3 the same maps and 2 different which isnt exactly fair to the otehrs
