I remember when I was the backup for France. Haha, what a joke.
I should totally resign just like Mitten and Sander. Then this could be the new generation U.S. team for real yo.

Wait what ? But I'm sure I've seen this date of 24th of January ;_; . We just want to add a back-up T.TLoctav wrote:

EDIT : Okay I'm not crazy, you told me this in December :
We searched for a back-up all this time and we were about to add one, you could at least have told us that you made some changes into schedule.
umm...i forgot when but i think i remember that loctav said before 17th Jan on the first post.Nashmun wrote:

I've read the op several times and I didn't see that date mentionned. Also this is quite a big change in the schedule, and we don't read the whole first post and and the rules everyday, a post advertising this change should have been made.
We were about to add the back-up at latest on Monday... I'll suggest it anyway and I hope that it will be accepted.

Let me ask about mods. So if captain will chose one mode, it will apply for every member of a team? Will it be applied for opposite team also? Or maybe just for one player? Can all allowed mods be applied for one map in one time?

Consult OWC Thread if you want to see a working example.
And did you ever tried playing a map on hidden in multiplayer? This should explain it.

Up against Hong Kong A in the first match? fml.

Seems I'm no longer helpful in #3 TWC management, and also it seems Loctav clearly knows about it as he believes that there isn't any need of my opinion for management. Since I don't want to be sandwiched by conflict nor to be seen as Intervening the tournament, I formally request to remove me from the staff of TWC. Whatever, I already told about retiring totally for many times already.
Should have done this before. Some guys still think that I have some voice around this community, but I don't think so. I shouldn't have maintained this position until I feel I got driven out.

You misunderstood the pm then. Also please refrain from acting like I overruled you. This is nothing that should be dragged into this thread and should be sort out privately.
Also it's a pity that you retire since I believe that your opinions and stuff have a valid point. But being absent results in no word at all. So I can't consider it.

What is wrong with mods? If your team is not good enough to play with them you don't even qualify to be the "best" team. Using mods and still performing well shows how good a player or team actually is. You should all be prepared for a difficulty tournament, not just stupid accuracy wars like the past years.
It should be stated at the beginning
Seems like its going to be similar to owc... Meaning that NoMod maps still are the bulk of the selection as one team can only pick one modded map per match.
I'm not playing, but I doubt this will have a great impact on things.

So if you cant handle hidden or double time then guess you shouldn't participate?MMzz wrote:

Adding it in after team rosters are locked is a little messed up considering how these things seem to be focused on winning instead of fun
We really need to have a talk as team and if possible really soon.
@MMzz: It must not lead into a acc-war, even without mods. It depends on the Map-selectors selections. Just saying.
Edit: Hey, who edited my post? That's not good.

That's being a little crude. Noone said you can't play, but don't expect to stand a chance against the pro teams that are actually experienced players.MrDonut wrote:

What I will say, is, mods aren't particularly a measurement of skill, only skills in particular departments, but not all of them, only certain ones. HR is accuracy, HD is reading, and DT is speed. I don't see how doing really good with just one of those is being a pro team. I know players who can rock shit at ANYTHING but when you play them in HD, they will miss quite a lot. It's not what they're used to, and maybe they don't like it? I know a few chinese/jp players that say they aren't good at HD and they're way better than I am.
Sure you're a better player if you can do all and everything efficiently, but I don't think it's right. I'm not scared over it, just annoyed that it's like this. We were told after we signed up. It's similar to signing up for a hot dog eating contest but then they say "oh well you've been eating normal hot dogs in preperation for this, now you gotta eat em with chilli, onions and mustard! Hope you don't mind! We've been wanting to do this for a long time!"
Even if we told you at sign ups you would complain, that's why we waited.
Get over it or don't play. You obviously don't understand pro tier gameplay in taiko.

Of course.
But the opponement team will pick it. :/
