[center]Drafts/Cups[/center]
First off, I just wanted to say thank you to Milo for stepping in and handling the draft and TPG Nations Tournament. I know there were times when all of the fun is sucked out of things because you’re the one administrating it and have to deal with everything/all the problems…but he has so far prevailed. Thank You!
Secondly, thank you all for participating/showing up and for at least trying to just have fun. We try to do a simple tournament and get people to just HAVE FUN. Sometimes issues come up and we do our best to make it fair and fun for everyone.
As far as the suggestions for captains go, they are all definitely good suggestions, however the issue we are having is getting people to step up so we can make it fair and more balanced. We wouldn’t be having some of these issues if people just stepped up. Granted, most of you that are posting are the ones that step up, but you are only a handful of people that do. Trying to find captains for these sorts of tournaments is a daunting task because no one wants to do it (Or at least no one near the same skill level). Another issue is when people don’t show up and teams need to use a ringer. There are so many issues about using ringers and who to use that we had to start creating rules on who can and cannot ring..WHY. Just play the game and have fun! Those that did not show up will be unable to participate in the next draft/cup.

Sorry for the late notice for the pre-season scheduling, but we weren’t sure if we would be doing a pre-season week or just starting the regular season week 1. The reasons why we are doing a pre-season week is simply to give us more time before the season starts. I know that’s a stupid excuse, especially since we’ve had so many weeks off already…but there are a couple reasons why.
First off, I completely forgot to run a vote for the season map rotation (My Fault). So we will be holding a vote to determine the maps for next season. This isn’t a major issue and something we could do while we started week 1…but it was delayed more for the 2nd reason mentioned below. So since we are delaying the start by one week more for the 2nd reason, we would like you all to vote for 2 of the maps you want to play this season that aren’t the more “Tradition Maps”.

Secondly, we have been developing an Anti-Cheat Client and need a little more time before we release it. Some of the TPG Admins and AC Admins tested the client during the last draft/cup..The memory usage for the client was 10k or less compared to CleanDoD which was around 30k. You also do NOT need to install the client, just run the .exe (like many of you do for your cheats). I will post more information once the client has been completed.
Thank You for your patience!
