We have all range of skill levels in our clan. There will be no ringers. We tend to be more objective oriented, but we don't have a lot of strats and plans and experience working as a true comp team. Its kinda fly by the seat of your pants when we scrim LOL.
btw TJW kicked our asses too, if that makes you feel better
The way I see it, we slot out a 4 hour block on Sunday afternoon, and people can come and go as they can. If you have gobs of players and we have 5 or 6, then I guess we'd have to take a few of yours. I would hope not, I would hope that every single IoW member can find a way to play that day even for 30 minutes. I understand people have lives, but with enough planning you can convince the ol'lady to let you game for an hour
?
As to configs -- we don't really limit anything - we allow panzer, mines, arty, adren everything. If this is "for fun" then I don't see a reason to get stuffy about what weapons are allowed. I never understood that anyway - why etpro and comp snubs their nose at panzer. No one
likes getting panzered, but if your team has a good panzer player, then by all means roll with it! The same with arty - if a blanket of constant arty helps you win the map, too bad for the enemy who has to die. I guess I don't see a reason to limit stuff, use whatever weapons or tactics at your disposal to win. Of course, this does NOT include hacks, but that goes without saying
So - if anything we'd be a bit more irritated if we had to start turning off weapons.
One thing we can do --- if we host it is backup our current XP save database and then restart everyone at 0. That might be one thing that is of reasonable expectation.
I say we don't do SW config, because then it becomes more of a scrim. We keep it easy and light, we do regular map voting and will swap teams frequently so no one has to be stuck attacking or defending the entire time.
Otherwise - lets just have fun. You have your team, we have ours. No stuffy rules about weapons, no strange maps no one has played, leave it open for anyone of our clan (must be an IoW member) and anyone from your community to drop in, join a team and play. Then if someone has to leave, no biggie we just drop in another player.
...so, just thinking out loud and typing as I think lol...
