ETQW Ladder at GA

ltmon's picture

I braved the eye-bleedingly bad discussion forums on GA for a few minutes today to see the latest on the ETQW comp. Currently there are pages missing, but our old friends RoK are out, and our older friends nes are in the final. I think it’s versus Sequential Gaming, who apparently beat RoK in a worthy game. It doesn’t seem as if there is a broadcast of the final being realised due to lack of ETQW-tv (although apparently this is coming) or whatever. Hopefully there will be at least a few demos to watch and learn somewhere.

In other news a ladder will be open for registration directly after the closing of the competition. This will be organised by GA directly (i.e. none of the stupid rules enforced by Activision or whoever it was) and will be similar in format to the W:ET ladder. 6v6, max of 3 maps in stopwatch. I’m pretty damn sure that substitutes between matches will be allowed.

Anyone think it’s worth risking sitting at the bottom of the ladder for a few good matches ;) In any case we could try it out for a season instead of our normal randomly organised scrim approach.

P.S.

Fully half the posts in the competition thread had to be removed by admins. Seeing some of the dribble that was left alone in other threads I can only imagine how bad it got. And then the same people manage to complain about the “ETQW community being dead…”. DUH!

Interested

I’d be interested in being part of a ladder if we had enough people committed to it. Don’t really want to be part of something that’s just a forfeit every other match, and I have a feeling that’s about the level of commitment we’d be able to give as a team with the number of players we have.

Let’s see what the interest is though, and we can go from there.

A little better than last time...

We have Kazashi and Ozza now able to play the game, and 2 less players to field each week: should be do-able?

Expression of interest

A forum thread opened up to show expressions of interest in the ladder. A certain number of teams being interested is required to run the ladder, so based on this thread I put us down. Proper registrations will probably open up next week.
