...
After lots o thought I say 13v13!
Any idea when a DC Final League Rule Set will be available? The suspense is just killing me!

/me plays music that fills everyone full of suspense.
Looks like we're up to 14 teams now (although I'm not sure wtf that OMG..... clan is all about), how long before we give this sucka the green light and post a rule set?

/me is so antsy and wants the DC League to start asap!!!

Let's get this going...other teams can join up after it's up and running if they insist on dragging their feet right now.
I heard a crazy rumor that we need 20 teams.


ok, Grassy told me that.
20 would be killer... pretty sure we don't "need" 20 to have a great league though.. hope they get this rolling soon..
Nice to see some Old faces around . not sure if -M|N- is ready to make a 1ST place come back . but i did just talk to Bastone and hes going to help me get things restarted we hope .

so when might this start ?
we may need some time to find a few guys?



PS hi wolfman long time bro how have you been ?
doing good man. would be good to see M|N try a come back..
lots changed since their reign.. would be intersting.
well i have full permision from the clan leaders to get things moving . -M|N- well be back soon ....

ill have the DC game server up this weekend not sure when i figure saturday night ..

How do we sign up? Having difficulty finding it.....

Also, my vote would be for Sunday Nights, like it was before....
Just in case it matters, I'm listed as a Captain. Does it require you to be the founder to sign up?
^ yes.. u must be a founder to sign your team up.
Thanks Wolfman! I appreciate the quick response

I say Thursdays and 12v12. It could be 10v10 with the allowance of having 12v12 if both teams agree. This would help those that can't field a team of 12.


You've always been able to do 12v12 or even higher if both team captains agree, its been like that on twl forever ;o


Is this also for ladders?
or just league?
If it does apply for ladders then this rule doesnt really apply then?

Squad Info

This is a 10 v 10 ladder, each squad is to fill a minimum of 8 positions and a maximum of 10 positions. If a squad is unable to meet this requirement, the offending squad must either forfeit or re-schedule the match at a later date with cooperation from the opposing squad captain. If neither team is able to fill 8 positions at the start of the match, the match will be nullified unless both squads choose to play the match with less than the number of required players. If either team is able to field 10 players and the opposing team can only field 8 then the match will be played with uneven numbers unless the teams agree to even the numbers.
Yea manbeef is right, youve always been able to cahnge rules if both teams agree. If you want to have a 13v13 you can do that too. Im talking about the TWL ladder

UPDATE:

Time is running out for your team to submit your map choices for the DCFL, I've received several but there's still some missing from teams that I know have an opinion.

So here's what you can do, please do it now!

Please don't delay and have your team come up with a list and send it off my way so I can compile it together and show you what the community has come up with.

Thank-you!!
Looks like my post above did some good, I got a few more responses (thank-you!!) so I'm going to bump this one more time to make sure it gets noticed and acted upon.. I'll extend the deadline by 24 hours until this Friday but after that I'm going to set to work on compiling the votes and presenting you with the results. The League rules are drafted and currently undergoing peer evaluation, so we are pretty close to going live with this..
wOOh wOOh!
there had better be no stalingrad, el al...i say we get some of the good ole maps in there...BOTB, Battleaxe, Kharkov, Lostvillage, Desert Shield, Eastings, Gazala, Dustbowl, Bocage, and Basrah Nights would be my choices...I wish they would fix those old maps like Liberation of Caen which is a sweet map....maybe we could get a little DC_Pro action goin

Dox , im on it for -M|N- i have the list together just waiting for a few guys and there input .
^^ cool, thx

I'd also like to mention that your founders' vote is important in this poll - it's a vote to see whether you prefer Thursdays or Sundays for the default match date. There's only been a few votes and I want to make sure that everyone is well represented, so please hammer away on your team founder to cast a vote if they haven't already.. Thank-you!
what about default time? 9:00 EST or 9:30?
dude - you can't ask people to make a 6:00pm match. alot of people play dc on the west coast - 6 is too early.
but you cant make it too late either man... many people have to be at work early in the morning...
so set it to a good time in mountian time . ok 7 pm mountian is 9 estern and 6 western .so work from there like 7.30 mountian . and this can be poled

9:30 is good. alot of west coast people get screwed by not being dialed/calibrated when the game starts having just got home. any later than 9:30est is too late.
Please delete -=2AD=- from the DC Final League. We have no assignment yet so hopefully will cause no disruption to other teams.



hay every one I am looking into signing up a clan the >]DR]=>
we have 8 members now and I have been reading up on the forms just wording what night you decide on and that it is 10 on 10, now we are a dod clan and there are a bunch of us who are playing dc and would like to get involved in a league if you know of any good sites on desert combat tweaking and or if you have a mirc channel that I can idle in and talk to ya or of a good servers to play on that you guys play on. But I hop to se ya around

but the extra half hour makes that huge of a difference? pfffft
yeah - it actually does make a HUGE difference. alot of people get in the door at around 6 - having 20-30 minutes to warm up makes a big difference - plus alot of teams are going over last minute stuff. the guys on the west coast who just rolled in the door at 5:52 and are stuffing their face with some food and listenning to directions or warming up need that extra time. some guys don't even get off work til 6. i know plenty of people in this boat.

you are correct about that - if its sunday - i doubt it would be a prob

sunday means school the next day, and it IS the "day of rest", so most of the working guys who cant make it home on a weekday will be home anyway. if its sunday, i say we go with 9 est.
