Season 13: Division 1 Match elemental violence vs. uV NINJAS

Season 13 powered by Tt eSPORTS: elemental violence vs. uV NINJAS

Watch the VTV VoDs over at www.youtube.com

 uV NINJAS (who are actually mostly  Russian but went international recently) are still sitting on only one match played (in which they won and lost one map) but will nevertheless start working on their delay tonight. This is the week 2 match in Division 1 between  uV NINJAS and  elemental violence, a team full of talents who worked their way up the divisions over the years and managed to take a map off of Division 1 leader  Naugthy Badmen.

The recent addition to the  uV NINJAS,  CommanderX, gives the following statement for this match:

So I’m finally making my much anticipated return as soldier. After maining it for so long in old division 3 I feel stepping up to current division 1 should not cause me too many issues. We’ve (not me personally but the team) have pcw’d elem.v quite a lot and it has always been fun so we’re looking forward to it. Our aim is to win division 1 and we believe we can do this so we’re going into this game confident. The talent across our team is move evenly distributed so over the course of two maps that should help us come out on top. Also, whiteglow will ubersaw WAR atleast 3 times, cu@youtube, scrub.

 elemental violence’s  WARHURYEAH responds with:

We are finally here at the pinnacle game of our TF2 careers, I have dreamed of this day, the day when we play against a team that is just as aggressive as ourselves, a team that also doesn’t care about their medics and will probably die all the time. Following from our sexual performance against Naught Badmen, a game that many feel we should have gotten rolled on, I have the upmost confidence that tonight, we will not be getting raped, because we will be giving consent, we are spreading wide and telling uV that if they want it, they have to fight for it first.

VanillaTV will be covering this match as part of their ABC Tuesday series with  AcidRenix,  beta and  Comedian (Got it? Because it is Arx, Beta and Comedian…). Tune in, this will be a close and exciting match!

Updated Policy for Match Extensions

Giving an extension for a match is always a double-edged sword for the admin staff. On the one hand, we want all matches to be played within certain guidelines to be able to wrap up a week and look forward to the next one. This also benefits casting organisations and opponents because harsh deadlines make it easier to arrange schedules. On the other hand, most of us are playing this game for fun and not to make a living which makes us think some leniency regarding certain topics is appropriate. It would be over the top and unfair to expect the players in this league to organise their life around ETF2L matches, it should be the other way around.

Now that it should be clear why the rules for extensions have been tightened a bit but extensions are still possible, it is time for a little revision. The revised extension rule is explained below.

The old rule reads

An extension of up to 7 days is possible if both teams agree and an admin’s approval is given. If the match with the extended deadline has no result at the end of the day after the extension expires, both teams will receive a minor warning.

The new one is now

Teams may request an extension of the match deadline by 7 days by contacting an admin. An extension is granted if the following requirements are met:
– The match was scheduled by the teams within the schedule deadline. No default date has be given for the active schedule timeframe. This point resets when a wildcard is used as it opens a new schedule timeframe.
– The extension is requested at least 24 hours before the initially scheduled time.
– Both teams must agree to the extension, either in the match comments or by accepting/proposing the new schedule.

If an extension is approved, the current schedule will be removed. A default date will be set for the match if the match is not scheduled by the following Monday to a day within the following play week’s match deadline. Matches without result one day after the deadline of the extension passed will lead to one minor warning for each team.

The new rule is effective with the start of week 5 on October 14, meaning week 4 matches still can be extended under the old rule.

Chinese Mafia drops from Premier Division

Lastly, we feel sorry to announce that   (-.(-.(-.-).-).-) CHINESE MAFIA decided to drop from the Premier Division and from Season 13 as a whole.

A statement from Gubbins:

Chinese Mafia have decided that due to lack of motivation and availability to play, we will not be continuing to develop our roster as it would be disrespectful to other Premiership teams. Apologies to all teams in prem, Quad, Raliator and uV
