NEW Rules...Patch Time...Tourny Mode...

Historical capture recovered from the Wayback Machine · captured 2004-07-02 · 36 posts
Okay it appears that we may get a patch today. With that comes all the fun.

#1 Instead of the normal 3 day kill, it is being extended to 5. What that means is...If you have a match scheduled today through Saturday it may be killed or rescheduled. It only takes one team to request that the match be killed, no agreement is necessary. You will need to email your ladder admin with a link to match coms if you would like the match killed. If the teams agree to reschedule the match, just work it out in match coms and email your ladder admin when you have a date set.

League matches will all be pushed back a week. If you have already played your league match for this week, don’t' worry, you get next week off then.

#2 All Ladders will be updated with new rules, hopefully by the end of the day today, if I don't fall over dead. Read them carefully as there is many changes. PB, OT maps and choices and many more. League rules will get updated over time to match up closely with the ladder rules.

#3 There is a new Tourny mode, I do not believe that it will be usable for TWL matches because it is designed more for LAN use at this time, but if it is we will update you.

Finally enjoy the gaming.

You can agree to do whatever you would like, need to find a server that is still on 2.0 obviously.

Terror, is this official now that the patch is, in fact, released? Is it safe to go out tonight and not get a no-show on the league or are we waiting for something else to be said before it actually is 'official'?

Just want to make sure...
Champ you play alone then I'm out to play 2.1

New rule sets are updated. May be a few changes over the next day or 2 to the ladder specific rules.

bleh @ the killing...it's being abused already..how can you kill a match due to the new patch..yet play a different match on the same night..?
I don't see that as abuse, since it's within the rules. I wouldn't lose any sleep over it either way...
well i feel killing matches is the best way to go cause it stops all the confusion. As far as i can see it's offical patch is released.
If I want a milkshake and ask the other team to get it in match comms can I get it?


trying to do a dans . New rules already! Terror is going to disapear the next 3 days

Because there are issues to be dealt with like bugs for example. Another reason is that servers have to be updated. It's also too hard to have every team reschedule, especially if a team is juggling 4+ ladders.

Last but not least, so people can enjoy a new patch with no worries. Now go d/l it!!

only one team required to kill? what kinda crap is that? it's just an easy way out for teams that dont want to play, and of course they're going abuse it.

Gee, it's only been like that since day one, but since you don't like it, I guess the system must be changed. Or not...
i never once said that because i dont like it it should be changed - i never even once mentioned the word "change" or any form of it.

The servers that host CDC have to be updated to 2.1 just like everyone else. It will be updated soon.

So 4 v 4 invite league matches scheduled for tonight are killed? Just checking. Have posted your forum thread in match comms.. I got half the team updating and no word from the opfor yet..
Are the Intermediate leagues the same way? And are they killed or just pushed back a week?

How about a modification date on the page so we know when it was updated last
What's the status on the CDS Servers? Updated?

Also is there a client-side patch for CDC that will be out?

great, now another team wants to kill a match even though they can still schedule it for next week..this rule's just alowing teams to pansy out of matches they dont want to play, even though theyre already set with the patch :-\

Nice attitude. While you may have a perfect setup with no ver.2.1 problems, many are, and for the first time I am having problems with the new version. Get over it, calm down, no one is going anywhere, you can challange them next week, or whenever! Its not really a big deal.
