Re: brawl is destroying twg

I just finished up with a ****load of homework

Okay, I lied, I still have a ton of homework due Monday and Tuesday, but it's a manageable amount. My 15-page research paper worth 25% of my quarter grade is done. I'll have time to be in the next TWG, I believe.

Re: brawl is destroying twg

Hence why it'd be alternate. In case the other two die out. Not a game for people to play in if they don't like the other options, and not a game to be played if both others are in progress. Just if the other two die and we have nothing else to do.

I agree with BDN 1000%.

Brawl kills TWGs.

Re: brawl is destroying twg

What about if we keep 2 TWG's, but have them alternate, so one would start when the other was half over. That way the people who die early in one game don't have to wait as long to sign up for the next one, and you won't need 2 full games worth to have 2 games, you could have 2 alternating 16 player games with only 24 people.

Good|Bad?

Depends on how long it takes for the game to end, they all kind of fluctuate.

Re: brawl is destroying twg

I don't like the idea for the fact that if you win, you don't get to play until the next TWG is over.

Re: brawl is destroying twg

@Kekeb, yeah, that would be a problem, but if either there are more than 24 players or one of the games is smaller it should work.

@ Xception, A new TWG would start whenever one ended, it would have 8 players that were dead from the one still going on and 8 players that lived past halfway in the one that just finished.

Re: brawl is destroying twg

K well there's a problem with that as well.

All TWG's would be limited to a certain amount of players, leaving less scenarios possible.

Re: brawl is destroying twg

also i blame trav for being an inactive host

and also for not brawling me yet

Hey, I've only been late twice the whole game.

The first time it was only by a few hours.

And today I just wanted to see if you guys would even respond to me not posting.

If you guys don't want to finish my game just tell me.

We can start another one, if that is the issue.

True, but if you want a large game now, you still have to search for players. It wouldn't be much different.

And if that doesn't work you could wait a couple phases in the other game to have more people available. When the other game restarts it might have to be smaller, though.

Re: brawl is destroying twg

Well, the only reason I say we should have an aTWG is because if we kept the two regular ones and had different ones going it'd be confusing and chaotic. So with an aTWG that only ran when the others were EXTREMELY inactive we could avoid the confusion. But let's hurry this up before Brawl gets boring and people come back with no need for our idea.

Bump.

Re: brawl is destroying twg

I like the staggering of the two TWG's. However with this case, there isn't really a jtwg, but the new players seem to be picking it up decently quickly, and I think we all can agree that having a few noobs in our game is better than not having enough people at all. So, it's up to the TWC, but I think staggering it would work well. That way if for some reason we get a ton of interest, then we can also maybe start up a new jtwg. ONLY if there is a TON of interest.

Re: brawl is destroying twg

I just read through this thread, and I really don't like the aTWG concept.

First of all, like heavy said, we just don't have enough players to constitute another whole set of games.

Secondly, you would run into big problems with the first TWG preceding the first aTWG ends.

Now you would have a whole set of players who want to play in the real TWG who are already involved in a game. This is clearly against the TWG rules.

Also, what happens when there is a game that has any kind of revivals? It just wouldn't work.

Instead of focusing our energy on making another TWG, I think that we should just focus on getting activity up, which would remedy most of the problems presented here.
