First of all I would like to appologize for leaving you all in the dark for a bit at the start there... We have been busy setting up the foundations for Season 7 and I did not want to have any rumors floating around before I made an official announcement.
That being said, I would like you to all welcome and congratulate Pure_Luck to TWL Staff. He will be a full fledged League Operator and an equal to Acid. Epinephrine has decided to stay on with us as a TWL Advisor and we will all benifit from his expertise and experience from running TWL Season 6. Acid is staying on for yet another season as League Operator bringing to us valuable insight gained from his working on the past several TWL Seasons.
Now to address concerns raised by several of you:
Returning TWL Squads: As you may have noticed from the revised rules, we have decided to only allow the playoff squads from Season 6 to be granted automatic admission to Season 7. This change is outlined in Rule 2.02.
The TWL Start Date: Even though I have a date set for when I would like TWL Season 7 to start, I would like to keep it unknown to the public until more of the necessary work has been done. This is so that I can more or less guarantee that the start of the next season will not be delayed.
Resetting TWD: Because replacement TWL squads will be taken from TWD rankings, TWD will have to be reset at some point prior to the start of TWL. Rest assured, there will be plenty of time to wake your squads from any sort of inactiveness that they may have slipped into during the off season.
Changes in TWLB: The rules concerning TWLB have not yet been set by us. We have several ideas for changes and such but we would like to see how BWC plays out first before deciding on anything.
Lag Checking: I will be working on a way to incorporate automatic lag checking into the bots. This will include ping, packetloss (C2S, S2C and S2C Weapons), and spike. After I create the necessary modules for the bot, I will define the lag limits.
Double Squadding: Double squadding will be checked by the website and / or bot. It will reference a database that has been created to ensure that players will not be in violation of the double squadding rules. This way, Captains will no longer need to track down an Smod to see if a squad member is double squadding.
If you all have any other questions or concerns regarding TWL Season 7, please post them here and I will do my best to answer them.
