Could you please remove "MLG" from all the map names? It makes it really obnoxious when I'm trying to actually look at the list of MLG maps. Having MLG in your map name is stupid; its not the map used in MLG.

The point of having MLG in the name is to make sure people know there are no close spawns. How else should he denote that?

It takes more effort than just queuing up in the normal ladder so it didn't really have a chance of becoming very popular. And if people BADLY wanted to play MLG maps they could just click join custom game and get paired up with a diamond or masters player to play with that way.

I like the idea, unfortunately it just couldn't be as easy as using the ladder built into BNet.

It's the MLG version of the map, only with a couple extra functions for NTBL. Deal with it.

I remember when this was booming, like 50 people in the channel at a time, kinda sucks that it died down after season 3 . We need to tell ALL our friends about this and somehow bring this back guys! We can't let this die down!

That doesn't work at all... and as far as I remember, you match up with somebody and then immediately the game starts, even if you match up with some silver n00b~

It just seems like the main dev, Angrybacon, didnt really know what he was doing as far as the programming.

For future developers, let it be known this project died because the dev lost interest, not because the public did.

The alpha release in this OP, and on the website, is NOTHING like what was planned, or what could become of a project like this.

Even though Blizzard said no third party matchmaking, that just means that a third party program can't set up a game for you. But a third party program with chat channels and a "find player" function based on your record on ntbl would be fine if it just gave you the id of the player you're looking for, and let you make the match.

It wouldn't even need a match-making system...

And as GhettoSheep mentioned, custom channels [for like different skill rankings] would be cool. If anything, just commitment to the project rather than more developments, would have been enough. Imo, things like a tournament hosted via NTBL maps, or even just updates/additions of maps would have been nice.

Its downfall seemed to largely be a compounding issue of less people using it leading to less people to play so that less would want to use it with fewer available opponents. Small efforts like tournaments to promote it would keep it alive.

I just saw some text from "not the blizzard ladder " on the blue stream from mlg. It was the game with the 7pool. Does MLG use this?

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't creating a 3rd party ladder system(which is what this basically is) against the EULA/TOS?

He would be ranked if the replay would be uploaded onto the system. otherwise it just stores stuff locally.
