TWL Re-Opens ET Ladder

Kn1ghT, over at United States of America TeamWarfare League, today announced that they will be re-opening their Enemy Territory Stopwatch ladder. The ladder will serve as, hopefully, a precursor in generating enough interested teams to once again run a full-on Enemy Territory league at TWL. The first day following the announcement has seen eleven teams sign up, and it is hoped this growth will sustain itself into enough teams for a standard league set up.

The ladder will go live when signups hit the twenty-team marker.

Please note that this a league intended for North and South Americans. Europeans are more than welcome to play, either on their own teams or mixed in with North and South American players — however, matches will be played at standard American times. If you can play the times (nolifer!) we would love to have you in the ladder.

An exact ruleset has not yet been nailed down, but expect something very similar to what ClanBase and ESL use, although little things like prone-delay may be tweaked.

Need team pm me asap I'll go fast
that's what she said
Parent
allowed match days/times wadafak :dd
well times 8:30 - 10:30 EST is typical, it's a ladder keep in mind so even though fri/sat may be challenge days most don't play on those days (when you challenge you have a few days to pick from)
Parent
nice to see a NA ladder back :)
gl with this, but u could keep times whole day, as some ppl still prefer to play early than at evening.
The goal is to shift this into a league however, which would play at night. So allowing play times during the day might get European teams into the ladder, but there wouldn't be any way to get those teams to play in the league (probably at 9:30 PM EST or around there on a weekday).

That, and there are plenty of EU ladders already. ;)
Parent
the same way CB and ESL are played with NA/SA teams.
at or before 12 NOON.
simple, don't put restrictions on times....
Parent
well u can just do it for NA players only, as one of the rules that EU ppl cant join in and that could be done without setting restricting times for league.
Parent
we welcome eu players that want to play to increase the player base
Parent
so why would u restrict times then, instead of let every team pick it on their own when they can play..
Parent
well partially because it's an american site so twl have it set up for americans, however this is one of the few games that actually has a decent anti-lag system - you could always challenge for a time lets say 10 PM EST then in match comments just say you want to play in the afternoon for example
Parent
LOL WHO WOULD M8, WE HAVE JOBS OVER HERE WHERE DRAGONS ROAM.
Parent
tell that to all the 3on3 european players nerding on ettv from midnight til 3, 4, 5 AM the past few weeks :D
Parent
nice good luck but why have roaster limit?
so you can't just get unlimited members.. every match you have a different lineup
Parent
More so you don't get twenty players on one roster, that could instead form three teams when split up.
Parent
for example brutii got like 25 members LOL which can form 5 5on5 teams :DDD XDDD
Parent
enhanced, biggest roster ever.
Parent
just make sure to not fuck up anything with the configsets if you want to "tweak" stuff. pmme if help needed
Good luck, sounds great!
yeah, pm this guy
Parent
gl nerds

Matches can be played at 8:30, 9:00, 9:30, 10:00, 10:30 - EST
what does that mean? we can only choose from those times or what?
double forfeit if u start at 9.45
Parent
I hope those times are PM
yes.. evening times
Parent
wtf so we cant choose like 5pm, 4pm ? if not then thats just gay..
Parent
"you could always challenge for a time lets say 10 PM EST then in match comments just say you want to play in the afternoon for example"
Parent
My point was that it isnt even shown that its AM or PM
Parent
well I guess it's automatically assumed no one would play that early:D
Parent
jesus christ your fucking retarded all of you how hard is it to comprehend you can list a time and write in the match comms you wanna play at 3 pm.

Its a miracle europe has been able to survive so long
u ain't worthy to use that name
Parent
We survived cause you love our managers!
Parent
You're a twat.
Parent

Parent
ET is like a drug mang
Parent
Not only good news for all North American players but also for all of you ET-players around here.

Set match times doesn't seem like a good idea to me though.
need team. im bad
get a team and you won't be bad for long
Parent
nice to see NA scene working a bit :)

also love how the TWL site looks near enough exactly the same as it did 10 years ago :D
Very nice!
nice to see it back, avi as rifle i guess
so 8 PM EST is 1.00 CET

and 10 PM EST is 3.00 CET right?
8 PM EST is 2 AM CET, think its supposed to be a 6 hour time diff. depending on DST.
Parent
yes but from what I've seen I do think matches can be played anytime but nto sure tho
Parent
