Ready to start rolling

Major revisions

There have been major revisions applied to all aspects of the current build, front and back end resulting in a better on-page experience, less server resources required and a much more streamlined and refactored code base. TWL is now much more developer-friendly and easier to use. Shoutout to insider who has been instrumental in the development of this update.

Chronophoto ladder testing

Our first publicly-viewable ladder test is the chronophoto ladder, it represents a basic implementation of the new TWL system. This ladder/game combo is designed to allow us to evaluate the performance, system and experience of using it without having to rely on larger longer games that use more time to resolve. We have a limited group of testers but will be expanding soon, please get in touch with the admins if you'd like to be involved and check out our progress live

Forums upgraded

With matches returning and rant boards on the horizon also worth mentioning is the update of our forums which were always an important part of TWL. The categories are minimal but ready to receive your posts and feedback as we claw our way to a formal launch and start reconnecting with long lost friends as well as meeting new ones. A great alternative to the oops-its-off-my-screen Discord reality, feel free to stop by and try the new forums and let us know what to do!

Setting up comps

With progress finally at a point where we can consider builder rosters, admins teams and competitions we are now formally reaching out to interested parties (and receiving requests from others) to build competitive community experiences that will use the new ladder system. Please contact dox or one of the other admins if you'd like to be involved!

Discord cleanup

We have a lot of old channels and messages that are no longer relevant, a cleanup is currently in progress and we're boiling things down to be far less channels and bringing things like game talk to be closer to others (rather than separating games by roles, which we can revisit later if there is a need) we've cleaned them up and removed some that were not being used. If you're interested in keeping an eye on the discord please feel free to join our discord and say hello!
