Topic: [TOURNAMENT] PSL Teeworlds 1vs1 ladder

Hi

Pro Star League web site has just set up a new 1vs1 ladder. I would like to ask for your opinion about it.

more info and HTML version of this post: http://ProStarLeague.com

      How to play Teeworlds 1vs1 ladder games:
-         Download game from here.
-         You must have an active account on the site.
-         You have to login to your account on web site. This is necessary to log your current IP address. However you don’t have to be logged in on site during playing games.
-         Start Teeworlds game and set your nick name to the same value as you have BNet nick on the site.
-         Go to Internet tab and enter in search filter ‘PSL’ to see current PSL 1vs1 game servers. Join some server, find the opponent and fight for ladder points.
-         You will be able to join ladder servers ONLY if your nick name matches the one from the web site AND IP address that you are joining from to the Teeworlds server is THE SAME as IP address that you logged-in in to our web site last time.

      Teeworlds ladder rules:
-         The winner of the game is the first player that scores 10 points. There is no time limit set.
-         Game must last at least 3 minutes to be count in ladder. If you quite or win the game earlier the game won’t be reported in ladder (result is draw). If you quite the game after 3 minutes you lost the game (even if you have more points!).
-         You are not allowed to change your nick name after joining the Teeworlds server. If you try to do so you will be kick out from the server. If you are in the game this means that you lost that game.
-         Winner should take a screenshot of the final score table after the game is ended. There is currently no need to upload this screenshot to web site to confirm your win. However admin may ask a player for screenshot if there are any doubts about his game.
-         Ladder rating is described here (same as for StarCraft). Currently enabled feature is only a winning streak. Disable features are: MOTW, luck/mercy, mile stones, team/country ladder.

The system seems very good, the site and such doesn't. The ads overlap the menu and overall it is very hard to navigate, but I guess it is a good initiative, even though ESL is to start up teeworlds ladders soon again.

Re: [TOURNAMENT] PSL Teeworlds 1vs1 ladder

Originally PSL was only StarCraft ladder. We are adding more games just to create multi online games environment. So if you are not SC players basically most things that are on the site are not important to you. We are also trying to re-design site to become more user-friendly for non-SC players.

The reason why we put ads on the site is to get some additional money for players’ prizes. Prizes seemed to be the best way to get players nowadays. Registration and playing ladders is of course free.

If you have any suggestion feel free to let us know.

Re: [TOURNAMENT] PSL Teeworlds 1vs1 ladder

I like system, it removes much of the human aspect of controlling the stats (to send screenshot that is). I just hope that it will be easier to navigate on the site, to see the ladder and additional info, as Chi11y said. Also I'm not sure what impact the ESL ladders will have. I really miss a clan ladder, too. Both for bigger clan matches, but also for 1on1. Fun thing, though. big_smile I hope it will succeed.

The proposition "I am the center" need never be uttered. It is the assumption upon which all certainty and all doubt turns.

how to reduce ping?

im from Russia...bad English smile

Re: [TOURNAMENT] PSL Teeworlds 1vs1 ladder

Ping is a response time between you and the server. This time depends on connection quality and distance between you and the server. There is not much you can do to reduce ping. Try to reduce download/upload on you computer (close p2p software (torrents, kazaa etc)), stop all other downloads etc.

Re: [TOURNAMENT] PSL Teeworlds 1vs1 ladder

Siberia is pretty far so that is why your ping is high. Unfortunately I do not have any server in Russia. Try play PSL server for 4 players. They should be closer to Russia then those for 6 players servers

Sounds... impossible. So the only way you can win is if you score the 10th point at the exact time you reach 3 minutes?

Re: [TOURNAMENT] PSL Teeworlds 1vs1 ladder

No, it is if you QUIT before having 10pts and/or 3 minutes have gone.

Players at prostarleague.com are mainly playing StarCraft and since TW ladder has been started some of them begin to play it.. So most of them are not skilled yet. It seems a bit stupid for me to run away from some nooob for dozen of seconds just to make game count..

That isn´t what it sais. It might be what it was meant to say though, but I´d rather hear that from the source.

Re: [TOURNAMENT] PSL Teeworlds 1vs1 ladder

Just help us out a little and tell some good players abut this ladder so you can play vs skilled players too.

If some newbie player see that he can not win vs skilled player he/she may quit the game in first seconds/minutes to not lose points. I know that this is not the best solution to abort this match but winning ladder points for game that last several seconds in not any better.

However this is the first PSL ladder season so some rules may be changed in future

Re: [TOURNAMENT] PSL Teeworlds 1vs1 ladder

Hi. It is possible to open source of teeworlds version used at PSL servers? I want to add on my server some statistics about players like at PSL 1on1 servers.

24

Re: [TOURNAMENT] PSL Teeworlds 1vs1 ladder

I think this is pretty outdated now. Ive never seen a server with this on 0.5

Bye.

Re: [TOURNAMENT] PSL Teeworlds 1vs1 ladder

No. PSL 1on1 server running 0.5.1 now
