    Talking [news] TWR Galactic Rumble

    To popularize the RTS game style a bit and show to people how fun that game style can be, we're organizing a special RTS event next week.

    I call it, TWR Galactic Rumble I. Here are the details:
    - RTS Tradewars Rising game series (Public Open Ranked)
    - max 15 players per game, 10 Clusters & 20 Sectors each
    - First game will start on February 11th at 8pm EST.
    - At game end, players are assigned points depending on their ranking (best gets 15 points, 2nd 14 pts, and so on).
    - In the NEXT 4 days, every day at 8pm, games will be run for increasingly large amounts of points (15pts max on day 1, 30pts on day 2, 45 on day 3 etc…).
    - At the end of each game, points are compiled and a scoreboard is put up.
    - At the end of the 5th game, overall point rankings are calculated as well final results posted.
    - This is just for good ‘ol fun... and some mayhem…

    In order to set this up properly, I need to know how many players want to participate in this so I know how many games to set up each day. If more than 15 players are interested, I’ll set up two concurrent games (or more if we have more interest).

    If we have several concurrent games running, they will be designated as A, B, C etc… and your points in each “lettered” game doesn’t carry over to another “lettered” series so if you play in an A game, then the next day play in a B game, you’ll have two sets of points that will NOT add themselves up. In the case of multigames, we’ll therefore have an A winner, a B winner etc… For fun and if the winners want to, we can set up a game just to see who’s the Grand Champion later.

    Oh and I’ll make sure to leave a couple spots free in each game for players who want to join in to grab some points midway, just to add to the chaos!

    Just reply to this post to tell me if you’re “in” so I can do a head count.

    Invite you friends and specify if you want to play in the same games as them.

    And remember, the games START at 8pm EST Sharp, on February 11th, so I suggest participants be ready at 7:45pm to play and join the lobby as soon as it is up and running. At 8pm, the games will start with or without you.

    Only Premium Members can join in these games.

    Greendragon: I need to run these since I have to tabulate the rankings at the end in a special way. So no problem. You're welcome to join in just for fun in a few games, even if you may not be able to play in every game though.

    All:
    So far only 2 players want to be involved? tsktsk. I'm sure some of you are waiting for the first game date to arrive to show your faces huh?

    Default Game starts at 8pm Sharp today

    Just a reminder that the first game will start today at 8pm. Please be there 15 minutes earlier to follow instructions from the chat to make sure you get in there on time for the start.

    I'll be banging the game with enough space for several more players, so anyone who want to participate, either for the whole series or just that one game as a one-off, for fun, will be able to get in there. First come first serve.

    Given only 4 people signed up so far, I'll make only a single game with a max 15 players in case peeps want to pour in. Priority goes to those who "signed up" of course.

    Results of the game will be shown as soon as we tabulate them after the game is over.

    See ya later!
