If you do not want to join you can either NOT POST or just put your name and say I'm not interested anymore.. either way works fine. If I do not see a post from you on this thread by next Monday (Nov. 21st), I will pm and email you twice only to see if you are still interested... if you still do not respond, I will place you on the "Dropped Out" list and we will just continue on from there.

A little info. about the website and whatnot:

We will still be using the forums, barring Vad's approval, as we have been.. meaning you will challenge and everything on these forums, but instead of putting news and update information on the forums, we will be utilizing the website. The website will simply be an extension of Vadavaka.com with a link accessible in the forums and on the main page. There will also be a page specifically for each player who is in the league still (THUS WHY I NEED TO KNOW NOW! Wink

containing some info. about each player (contact info, hobbies, and stats). The biggest perk to the website is that we will have an actual ladder on it which will be used to determine virtually everything for the league.

Right now the rules are quite lax just to get a feel for how this is going to be, but once we get to the ladder, that will no longer be the case. All rules will be enforced and everything will run light-years smoother. The ladder will basically be a spreadsheet from excel that will be updated each time a new match is played. Of course, that will depend upon my schedule, but I should have enough time each day to check and update periodically.

So... Without further ado.. let's sign up one last time!

On mIRC go to the channel #ricoleague and type "need server lock" minus the qoutes. What this does is message all of us admins in our channel and let us know that someone needs a lock. Otherwise we won't know who needs a lock and when. Also, try not to pester the #Vadavaka admins unless absolutely necessary, try to use us if we are available (slasher-186, coweater, frooty, or myself)

Thanks!]]>

The ip is: 64.192.186.21:27015

This server is an 8-man pub (2-admin-reserve slots) that costs $20.00 per month, for a total of $240.00 per year. Anyone interested in helping to pay should contact Fr0oty, Slasher-186, CowEater, or Myself. You are not committed to paying just by being in the league, but hey it does help us out and you ARE using it, so it would be nice! :thumb:If you can't, then don't feel pressured to do so.. we know how it is sometimes. Smile

For those who are on mIRC regularly, just type "need server lock" without the qoutes and the League Admin Channel will get a ring and one of us will assist you in locking the server for a match. The rules I posted yesterday still apply, so just make sure all of your ducks are in a row and we'll be good to go!

GRITS is being super generous and allowing us to still use her server if necessary to play league matches.. just make sure to ask one of us (Fr0oty, CowEater, Slasher-186, or myself) and also get Miagi or GRITS's ok!

Everyone enjoy and get to playing your matches!]]> <![CDATA[Changes To League Matches]]> https://vadavaka.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=4270 Thu, 06 Oct 2005 13:40:48 +0000 CloudFuel]]> https://vadavaka.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=4270
Rule #1 - All matches, prior to having the server locked, must be cleared through myself, Slasher-186, or Fr0oty...

Rule #2 - Your match must be declared under the matches forum before actually playing the match so that we can verify it for you. Simply state the date/time of the match for us to find.

Rule #3 - If a match takes longer than 30 minutes, it will be ended by any admin for pure fairness to non-match players.

Rule #4 - If any player attempts to subvert or convince an admin that the server needs to be locked for a league match, but a match is not actually being played, they will be suspended from the league.

Thanks guy, I hope we don't have to deal with this again... we are fortunate enough to have GRITS and Miagi who are going out of their way to help us.. and they could very easily take that away... please do not blow it for the rest of us.

Also... Fr0oty has purchased a server which Coweater, myself, bloody, icedover, and a few others are going to be pitching in for.. if anyone is interested in helping with payments (pay as much or as little as you like) please contact me. :thumb:]]>

At first we will just do the points behind the scenes and maybe everynow and then update the status on the forums.. but I won't brandish the website and ladder until we've got a sufficient break in points.. enough to warrant multiple ranks. Also... no one will go below 0... we won't have - points. As of right now.. it's 5 points for a win... -3 points for a loss... until we get the ladder running.. then we'll see if you all really want us to change it or not...

CHALLENGE away!]]>

I. Cheating -
* Cheating, in any form, shape or fashion, will not be tolerated in this league. If any player is found cheating or in the possession of cheats, he/she will disqualify themselves from this league and may petition to return to future leagues.
â¢ Cheating is defined as, but not limited to:
* Anyone using admin controls other than locking or unlocking the server or reloading the map.
* Intentional use or exploits of bugs that grant you an unfair advantage over your opponent.
* Typekilling will be allowed. If you should be typing in the middle of a match and killed, that is entirely your fault, and the accused will receive no such punishment.
* Since all matches will be recorded, players must show evidence/proof of a player cheating in order for any action to be taken. You cannot simply accuse a player of cheating and expect results. The final discretion will be up to the Owner/Co-Owner of the League.

III. Playing Matches â
* Matches will be played following a ârace-toâ format as seen in billiards and most other online games.
â¢ The first player to 15 wins will win the match over his/her opponent. This prevents any ties and also gives both player ample opportunities to either win or lose the match. Keep in mind most matches in previous tournaments ended around 11 â 19 wins.
* All matches will be recorded by one or both of the players, using half-lifeâs âdemoâ method. The players must keep evidence of demo (it doesnât take up hardly any space) in case proof is needed for any reason.
* All matches will be logged into the forums under the provided thread for each match and in each thread the following information will be required:
â¢ Date of match
â¢ Time of match
â¢ Screenshot displaying results of match by one of the players]]>
