dingo and walrex!!

Hi we looked into this, the only admin we have that is in AM at the moment is heks, who is not the AM admin or an AM mod (Spazz and Reno are the AM admin/mod respectively). They are a medic player who only has experience in up to low Main/mid IM. We determined that because their experience outside of AM was only on medic, no restrictions were necessary. They were not involved in this decision making process.

Registration closes on November 2nd, don't forget to sign up!

Register Now For the Season 10 Mid Season Map Cup!

The 10th season of RGL 6s has begun, and one large piece of feedback we got during season 9 was the desire to see more map testing done. We’ve already begun doing this in different ways, having new map pugs for Invite and Advanced players, as well as introducing sultry/villa to the invite map pool. However, we want to encourage more general testing, and potentially change up the base map pool again. Thus, this season, we will be running a mid-season map cup!

The mid-season map cup will be free to play and will take place on November 5th and 6th. Please note the purpose of this map cup will be to gauge interest in changing the map pool. If you feel strongly either way, we encourage you to participate to ensure your voice is heard.

Map Pool and Schedule

The map pool will have every match alternate between cp_mannbase and cp_sultry. Playoffs will feature the top 8 teams for the div, Each match will be a best of three, with cp_villa as a tie-breaker map.

The schedule* is as follows:

• Sign-ups end: Wednesday, November 2nd
  
• Saturday, November 5th - Day 1
  • Group Stage Round 1: 15:00 - (Sultry)
    
  • Group Stage Round 2: 16:00 - (Mannbase)
    
  • Group Stage Round 3: 17:00 - (Sultry)
    
  • Group Stage Round 4: 18:00 - (Mannbase)
    
• Sunday, November 6th** - Day 2
  • Playoffs round 1 (top 8): 15:00 - Best of 3
    
  • Playoffs round 2 (top 4): 17:00 - Best of 3
    
  • Playoffs round 3 (Grand Finals + Third Place Match): 19:00 - Best of 3
    

*If both teams are ready before the scheduled start time, matches are encouraged to be played early.
** Depending on sign-ups, top divs may be top 4 double elim instead of top 8.

Configs and Map Versions

For IM divisions and above: Matches are played in a 30-minute half. If there is a tie after the 30 minutes, an extra round is played for 10 minutes, until either those 10 minutes run out or until a team wins a round. If the 10 minutes run out, the mid is replayed again, and whoever caps the midpoint wins the map. The rgl_6s_5cp_match_pro config will be used.

For amateur: Matches are played in a 30-minute half, and then the half concludes. The rgl_6s_5cp_scrim config will be used.

The map versions being used are:

• cp_mannbase_rc2a - May be added to map rotation depending on feedback
  
• cp_sultry_b6a - Currently in invite map pool, may be added to div wide map rotation depending on feedback
  
• cp_villa_b19 - Tie breaker map for playoffs, has had some changes since last played in the league, looking for feedback.

FAQ

What servers should we use?
All serveme/qixalite servers should already have the maps uploaded to them, however, it is highly recommended to download the maps from the link above before connecting to reduce connect time, delays, or other issues.

What region/divs is this open to?
The cup is open to the NA region, and open to all divs, however, there will not be a unique division for Newcomer.

All skill levels are welcome. We believe that having feedback at different levels will give a better idea of how the maps will play throughout the entire league, rather than just at high-level play. The placements of teams will be guided by placements of teams in the current season of RGL (if rostered). Teams may be shifted around depending on the number of sign-ups (e.g A top IM team may be placed in Main).

finally

fwiw i asked to tryout and was told no, which is well within his right so no worries there but i did ask
i am hopeful for hubida to be honest, especially after grape juice noting he acts like a reasonable guy in private spaces

We're only implementing the config in invite and potentially advanced for a couple reasons

1. We communicate pretty directly with Invite, so in our pre-season meeting we could directly ask all the team leaders if they would be down to try out the config this season in invite. We wanted to ask this in direct response to responses 3 and 4, as having it in invite matches ensures both that it gets introduced to the community at large via RGL's streams, and that it gets more testing (this time in a formalized league setting). A large majority of the invite teams present were in favor of testing the config, so we're going to test it this season. If people end up hating it, we're more than happy to revert the decision, however we just wanted an opportunity to see more testing.

As a side note, our general thought process with invite in recent seasons was to use the flexibility of the div to do light testing in the league format. This allowed us to test out badlands and granary again, and see how both of those maps function in a modern map pool. We extended this type of testing to advanced, and it was looked upon favorably (at least according to survey feedback).

2. We're extending this option to advanced moving forward, as we have gotten good feedback when we treat advanced like a "mini invite". This includes letting them pick their own map pool, pick/ban maps instead of weekly maps, and only lightly restricting the div to try to mirror invites complete lack of restrictions. When we send them the survey to vote on their map pool, an option to opt into the progressive ruleset will be present as well, and they can vote on it.

We totally understand the trade off with half times and the traditional match formats that comes up when the progressive ruleset is used, but that is the purpose of implementing it on the top divs this season - to give people further options to see that trade off in action and see if they favor the new ruleset or the old one. Like I already mentioned, we can revert it if needed, but we are actively trying to give people as many opportunities to test things as possible

Survey results are on the trad sixes banner, and can also be found here.

I can publish the results, I don't think I want to do a full article so instead I'll link them on the banner that's usually on top the site (under the "interested in helping out the staff" thing). The only thing I won't include will be the individual text responses.

We're going to be posting a financials article soon that'll include earnings + all the finances that went into LAN, I'll post that to this thread as well when it goes out.

THANK YOU THIS MAKES SENSE

iirc the situation that prompted the letter to corinth was a huge case of horny. Corinth was a port city, so they got a lot of visitors which influenced a culture of "immorality" (according to paul), and paul had to tell them to stop having so much dang sex. So yea, the Corinthian church was addicted to jacking off.
