Heyo everyone,

I want to start off this blog by saying I've been away from TL.net for a couple of years and have recently come back to visiting the forums on a regular basis. I want to check with the scene to see if there is any interest for tournaments I'd like to start up in the near future for lower rank players (and possibly upper rank players). That being said, money is hard to come by and getting people to throw money at lower ranks is even harder to come by.

So, on that note, please vote in these polls according to your rank. Answer honestly please.

For the D rankers (D-, D, D+):
Poll: As a D ranks player, would play in a team league with no prize money?

Yes! (19)
 
95%

No! (1)
 
5%

20 total votes

Your vote: As a D ranks player, would play in a team league with no prize money?

(Vote): Yes!
(Vote): No!


For the C rankers (C-, C, C+):
Poll: As a C ranks player, would play in a team league with no prize money?

Yes! (7)
 
100%

No! (0)
 
0%

7 total votes

Your vote: As a C ranks player, would play in a team league with no prize money?

(Vote): Yes!
(Vote): No!


For anyone interested in playing:
Poll: Would you play in an individual tournament with no prize pool?

Yes! (17)
 
100%

No! (0)

Your vote: Would you play in an individual tournament with no prize pool?

(Vote): Yes!
(Vote): No!

I remember your name Shimy from few years ago.

holyshit, weren't you the dude that helped run drtl 1?
The harder it becomes, the more you should focus on the basics.

I would love to play in something like DRTL. I find the C rank leagues for some reason don't last as long as the D rank leagues.

DRTL was interesting. I even helped training one of the teams.
Good times.

I played few games in DRTL Season 1 back in 2011.
I will always remember my win against Essbee, who went on to win DRIT 1.
Perhaps one day, I will do a battle report on that game.
