Setup
- Sign up your team on a wiki
- Your team is randomly assigned 3 fixtures (or more?) against other teams who have signed up
- Competitive matches are played and completed, then you wait for your next match
- There are no winners overall, the fixtures are essentially organised friendly matches
Advantages
- Good opportunity to try new ideas, break unexperienced players into competitive fortress
- Will allow lower quality teams which often get knocked out of the first round in most ladles to play a succesion of games at a good standard
- With no overall winner, a more relaxed attitude and lots of fun
- No winner = more risk, which will encourage people to cut the defence more like old fortress
- Only 4 teams need to sign up in order for this work (SP can probably provide half of that by itself
)- Will encourage more people to get involved in fort; won't need to reach a certain 'level' of fort in order to play like with ladle
- The closest thing we could probably get to a fort league without a heap of organising like last time
- Teams/clans always want at least one friendly a month outside of ladle, but they can be a pain to organise. This will organise 3 for you!
- Pure fortress without other agendas. We don't play to win, we play because we love the game!
- A good forum to spot new talent
- Similar to the oh-so-loved pickup games, except better!
Disadvantages
- There are other tournaments during the month, this is too much!
- I don't know how to make a wiki, so someone else will need to do it for me
- I only play to win, if I can't win, what's the point?
- I like to disagree with any new ideas on this forum, so I'm just gonna go with that
Further Discussion
- If people like this idea, how often should be played? Monthly? Bi-monthly? (3rd Sunday every month/every other month)
- Should the physics stay same as ladle? Should we get rid of holes to encourage more cutting?
- Is Harold Camping a genius or a moron?
looks like that happens about 4 to 5 months a year
