Rules Update

(steven) 02.03.2010 at 13:45

Just to let everyone know we have made a few updates to the Rules regarding teams not turning up / responding to Challenges. It's not a wipespread problem we have in the community, but we just want to make sure Clans are penalised for simply not turning up for matches. Note: These will be added into the formal Rules section, but they apply immediately. 1. No show without informing the opponent -10pts 2. No show with informing the opponent atleast 1 hour before the match -5pts 3. When going inactive all booked matches will be considered a no show for -5pts each. 4. Opponent ignores challenge. An Admin must be alerted and they will contact the team not responding. If we receive no response from that Team, a -5 punishment will be applied. 5. Teams now have up to 1 week to respond to a challenge. 6. If an opponent turns up for a match with less than that minimum number of players and a reschedule is not accepted by the team with the minimum number of players, then a -5 punishment is applied. Any team wishing to cancel a match must inform the opponent and match admin of this. Failure to do so will result in a default -10 removal.

General Update

(steven) 15.02.2010 at 09:54

Not had any News on the site for a while, so time to fix that. Upcoming Matches During December and January we have probably went through one of the sites quietest times (even during the Mod). Usually things get quiet over xmas and pick up again quickly, but the Upcoming Matches was very quiet to say the least. Very happy to report that we have 17 matches booked for the remainder of this month New Arrivals This year has seen a few clans go inactive on the Ladder, but recently we have seen new additions / old clans return to the fold (either played or booked in) In no particular order: |aTo| /KRUTUS/ cc// -[SIMO]- All these teams have either played or booked in for matches, which is one of the reasons the Ladder activity has picked up. End of season Just a reminder that the end of Season looms (end of March). If you are challening for awards, make sure your team meets the required quota (if you are not sure either check the rules or ask a member of staff). Good luck to all the teams. Misc If you have any ideas for future events we can hold, please let us know. We are always looking for ways to help promote more play / attract teams

RO:Ladder Public Server

(steven) 14.12.2009 at 12:31

RO:Ladder now have a public server online at: roladder.net:8888 Admin logins will be made available shortly for clans so lets hope we can get this server busy. One suggestion is before your clan wars, you can use this server as a good place to warmup and get the server seeded. If there are additional maps you would like to see on the server, please let us know. Exterminator mutator is not not running on the server (it conflicts with the the Broadcast Mutator so is currently disabled).
