#1 Next Chapter of RGL in TF2 General Discussion

Moving forward, ownership of RGL will be transferred from sigafoo to Taylor. Sigafoo has the following statement regarding his decision and reflection on the league thus far:

When I created RGL in 2017, I had one thing in mind, push TF2 forward. Many thought I was crazy, wasting my time and money, but I believed that the status quo TF2 was in, was not for the better. That we needed to rethink how we structure things, take a stronger stance against toxicity/racism, and create a league with a culture of consistently iterating and improving.

I believe we’ve done that. Have we been perfect? No. Did I do as much as I would have liked? No. But I think we're asking the right questions and are heading in the right direction. There is still more to do, but I realized over the last year or two that I don’t have the same drive as I once did. The drive that is required for someone in my position. It is not fair for me to stay in this position if I’m not being active enough in it.

I’ve decided it is time to pass the torch on to the next owner of RGL. I met Taylor a while ago and we’ve had great conversations about TF2, the future, and what he can do now. He’s a person who matches the culture of RGL, wanting to push TF2 forward, wanting to do more, and supporting what we already do. He has the drive and energy to bring great things to the community and I’m really looking forward to his future with RGL.

Taylor has the following to say regarding his experiences with RGL and competitive TF2 and his new role as owner of the league:

When I first started playing in RGL, I was bedridden by an injury for months. Previously, my identity was wrapped up in sports and other competitive outlets. I had lost a lot of confidence and joy with those absent. So, a new friend invited me to play on a sixes team for an experimental map cup, and I had lukewarm expectations. I ended up having a blast.

Since then, I made lifelong best friends; the sense of self-improvement that TF2 requires translated into my real life in valuable ways; and, I deeply enjoyed being a part of an amazing community. This league facilitated the return of my competitive edge and spirit. Thank you Sigafoo for creating RGL.

Now, what initially attracted me to RGL is the strength of the structure–due to the amazing work of the staff who continually maintain and improve it. My first and most important task is to support them in a meaningful way.

Still, I am aware there are complex relationships as well as inefficiencies and efficiencies. They come with any community. RGL has made great, needed strides, but I am aware of the frustrations. Luckily, many solutions are already underway or lay dormant in existing staff and the players themselves. If you have ideas or suggestions for us, send me a quick email (pm.rglgg@gmail.com). I aim to be transparent and listen the best I can in order to provide a great league experience.

I’m genuinely excited because we have measured plans to grow RGL and keep it going for years to come. I will share more in the near future.

We would like to formally thank everyone for being a part of our organization so far. We are excited about this next chapter of RGL and hope to continually push to make the league better for everyone. Thanks!

#16 Announcing RGL 6s - Season 10 (+ Invite Quals) in TF2 General Discussion
nowahhttps://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/899891137668595773/1017945779979161670/unknown.png
more fees, no improvement

For clarification, the only added fees for this season are the "LAN Sustainability Support". All of this goes directly to help fund LANs.

It is a sustainability fund to make it sustainable for all parties involved. This allows us to increase the prize pool for the LAN season and allow players attending to at least break even, cover some of the costs for our staff to directly come to the venue and help out, and most importantly -- cover the costs for the venue rental and any production equipment.

We want to continue hosting a LAN(s) each year, and the funds allow the league to have the full resources to do so.

#11 i69 camerawork in LAN Discussion
DavyCThe camera work has been extremely underwhelming and cheat feed would improve it. If you're worried about pauses spoiling a last push why not develop a plug-in that would delay tac pauses until a certain point after the round has ended a la CS:GO.

For RGL LAN, we ended up informing the teams to only pause once the next round started to deal with the issue of spoilers for the last push. Though I think a plug-in that delay tac pauses would be neat.

LAN Rules

The purpose of this document is to detail what is expected of players at any RGL in-person LAN event. The rules will be enforced by administrator discretion, and these rules serve as a guideline for how these decisions are made. We strive to have a fair and balanced ruleset, so note these rules are subject to change.

#8 RGL S9 LAN at Patriot's Place (August 6-7, 2022) in LAN Discussion

Quick PSA

If you plan on attending the Helix LAN, we suggest players and spectators get hotels and flights as soon as possible.

As the New England Patriots training camp is starting next week, this will likely will cause hotel rates to go up. Flights will get more expensive as the dates go by as well.

Draft Cup Conclusion

Thanks to all the players for participating in the event and everyone who came out to support the fundraiser.

We managed to raise $1,141.48 so far in the cup! Proceeds will go to help cover the expenses of the teams attending the LAN, as well as the production team.

If you are interested in still supporting the LAN, we have a shop here where you can buy LAN merchandise or donate. "Assist Points" are points that can be redeemed and unlocked for each tier in the image below. We are now currently at 1242 assists!

BrockDef picking up a hoodie and some stickers, did you guys screen print those or are they DTG prints?

From the teespring page:

https://community.teespring.com/answers/production-printing-methods/- Screen Printing is generally what we use for higher quantity orders. Each color or “layer” of a design will get its own screen, created by the printing facility. The inks are then pressed into the fabric of the product through the screens.

- When items are printed Digitally, the design which was uploaded to the website will be scanned, analyzed, and prepared by a computer system. Once it has been vectorized by our team to make sure there are no imperfections, it will be applied directly to the products offered on the campaign.

It seems to be technically both, depending on the type, quantity, number of colors on the shirt, etc. Everything but the "Overgrown Rocket Launcher" merch design are likely to be DTG since it only has 3 colors, whereas the others have 5 or more colors.

SpadesWill there be merch in person?

Yes, there will be merch in person. People can also choose pickup as an option during check-out instead of shopping if they want to reserve merch items from shopify (not teespring).
