Team T.R.O.L.L.S. is a loose organization of players interested in putting theory into practice in a light-hearted, low pressure environment. The only requirements are civility and interest. You do not have to be a skillful player or a master theorycrafter to participate.

      Official Testing Time: From 23:00 GMT (+00:00) on Fridays, until we run out of theories/people/fun.
      Official Testing Channel: TROLLS
      Official Testing Coordinator: Montegomery

Testing is not limited to Fridays, but Friday is the only official testing day.

Be advised: We at T.R.O.L.L.S. are willing to meet anyone with an interesting idea halfway. That is to say, if you're willing to put thought and work into an idea we will help you. We are not, however, a dustbin for whatever random idea tickled your fancy for the three seconds it took you to post.

What follows is an extended, tongue-in-cheek description of our organization.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Welcome to the TeamLiquid Research Operations and Learning Lab Syndicate (T.R.O.L.L.S.). Within these hallowed halls we strive to employ state of art technologies, research methods, and scientific theories in the pursuit of knowledge for the betterment of humankind.

[image loading]
The T.R.O.L.L.S research facility in Aberdeen, Idaho.


T.R.O.L.L.S. is a multinational organization, with experts spanning every known subject and field of research. Founded in 1947 in Aberdeen, Idaho, T.R.O.L.L.S. has upheld the highest traditions of research for over 65 years. Our research has been published in scholarly journals from the Piltover Review to the Nexus Monthly, and includes many landmark studies, such as:
  • CARLSON, J. and SCOTT, M. (1989) Meglings and Yordles: A Genetic Analysis and Comparison. Bandle City Journal of Ethology, 73 (3) pp. 457-486.
  • ASCH, S. E. (1956) Studies of Meta Independence and Conformity: A Minority of One Player Against a Judgmental Community. Psychological Metagames, 70.
  • RUSSIAN, Z. (2011) Dunning-Kruger Countermeasures and Player Improvement: Learning Tools for the Common Player. Royal Forum of Riot, 101 (1) pp. 1-101.
  • BEAR, M. (2012) Technology in the 21st Century: Technical Support and FAQ. Hallowed Halls of TeamLiquid, [online] Available at:<http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=243201> [Accessed 11 January 2013].

T.R.O.L.L.S. is open not only to veteran researchers but also the inexperienced. Membership is guaranteed so long as members remain active and abide by the rules and goals of the organization.

T.R.O.L.L.S. has three simple rules:
  1. Be considerate of your peers.
  2. Research should be conducted in calm, rage-free environments.
  3. All discussion must be civil and respectful.

The staff of T.R.O.L.L.S. includes the following individuals, all of whom have demonstrated dedication in their labors and distinguished themselves as thinkers, researchers, and scientists.

Viktor was breeding (and several others here at TL could claim having tried out stuff on him in their own lab too).
Heimerdinger? That... that was an experiment.

I didn't get the 2nd reference tho.

As tongue-in-cheek as the initial post in this thread was, the purpose of T.R.O.L.L.S. is not actually trolling. I'm fairly serious about creating an environment where people can work with their peers to discuss and try out interesting ideas, I just felt that a super-serious post would have worked against that goal.

The current concept is to have in-game and TS3 channels for people to discuss ideas and form groups to test them in normals. Ideas with merit would then be put to further test by a ranked team (consisting of myself and the Board Members). This concept is extremely malleable, and I'll be adjusting it depending on interest, community needs, and the like.

This is awesome. Our line-up is pretty good, as well. We need yango, shake, smash, navi, kupon3ss and Curu. I'm probably forgetting someone, hope these guys all join. slayer91.

We have no shareholders. Our funding comes from a number of anonymous benefactors hailing from disparate places such as an ursine lunar colony, the midnight mental spasms of summoners, and the wallets of unwary researchers. As such we have no need for corporate sellouts.
