Thanks to folks who have left sticky trails of information around the web (Mauler, Barb, vorbis, the webmasters of sites for BoP, Starseed, Epik/Llamas, etc) and to those whose brains I've picked (hallu, caer, and many others), and of course to the advent of A1 in the arena maps.

 

Definitely prone to errors, for instance every time a squad moved up to IML and decided to also continue to field a second team in AML, the data consistency shit hit the fan for me, it became a right kerfuffle.

 

Feel free to point out any errors, additions, or that I should be sleeping ...

The third round of S33 approaches, and just when everyone thought this season of league couldn't get any better, team Sterling had been called forth and summoned by captain Seismic to rid once more, all the bad squads that ever dares step foot into Pro League.

 

But, I digress. And here are the nominees for this week's matches:

 

A new bot server is on the way. Among the gains will be that the stats website will return. I hope to have the work completed before the weekend so that league matches can occur.

Rebels struggled vs. BYE Round, put that in your news letter, Ra.
Requiem beat Nuke in a game that saw Nacre getting a quick 0-2 with 3WR while testing the limits of Sika's lag. Nacre was then deathsubbed (full) by Dre, who was later on full subbed by ice2702. This slot was still the first out, but it took Requiem 29 minutes after Nacre subbing out to get there. This was at 8-5 score and only one Requiem player down to last life.
Assassins beat Unhallowed 12-6 in a game, which by spec log, was played pretty much 3v4 after Raja subbed out for Death Artist, who then lagged three times.
You can read heaps more about AR vs. Gods in Nude's post. But it was pretty intense, then Alpha Reunion won.
Llamas eventually pulled off a sloppy victory vs. SFE after being down 2-5. Gold Teeth would then be the one to kind of choke out, wasting 2 ships in less than 2 minutes.
Shocktech showed up, but wasted way too many repels to be considered a threat to anyone, really. 13 WR total in a 12-0 game. Although to be fair, we used about half that amount of offensive repels. I'm not sure if this concept exists in eXtreme Games.

OLDIE:
Will be posted here, once I have access to all the data and tools required to pull it off.
Might take a while, depending on some things you don't have to know and I don't frankly know myself.

In the meantime I can tell you Sterling is joining us for Round 3, taking over for BYE Round and their 0-2 record. Hah, take that, late entry squad.

<div>Rd 2 of Pro/AML League and Alpha Reunion open their account with a 9-7 edge-of-seat victory over the reformed Gods.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Starting with Mighty Sven, fuego, ugly duckling and 11th hour signing Weasal, the match began as a cautious lob-fest through the boxes at the bottom of the map, the lev bombs of Genocide keeping direct confrontations at a minimum. A lot of reps had already been worn off the enemy and there was a bit of discussion on what level of engagement was now appropriate. Patience wore thin for both teams after about 10 minutes and the first blood was drawn by Gods at the expense of illustrious leader Mighty Sven.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Poise deserted AR for the next few minutes, and by the 15 minute mark Gods had a 3-0 lead. But while the noobiest of the squad may have felt the bile of panic rising (*cough*), not so the coolheaded chastising of fuego, who led the way to regrouping and stopping the rot. Indeed, a few minutes later, AR had recovered equal scoreboard footing with their opponents at 3-3, all deaths to six different players.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The fighting that followed was more reserved and defensive, as stalemate #2 drew out to seven minutes duration, before Weasal dropped his second life, and a few minutes later fuego fell to one remaining ship - possibly with intent to get some toys back and get after the repless.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Gods' Adept lost his second life shortly after, and there was one ship in it, but then Mighty Sven was killed, and immediately after ugly duckling dropped his first. The lead had again blown out to a margin of 3.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>It was somewhere in here that someone (I dunno who) seemed trapped in a box by two opponents, but despite two offensive reps made it out safe. This was a massive turn of events as suddenly Gods had a far worse store of reps than before the incident. Sure enough. Genocide fell to one life left immediately afterwards, and ysymmij lost his first ship as well.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The blowout happened at the 35 minute mark when Genocide died for the third time, possibly moments before subbing out as Gods had just started to ring in their subbing at that time. Adept was pulled for Jackol and Weezie for skipper BloodyEssence. Further complicating their own quest for glory, rules naivete saw these players burned.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>At the same time, fuego suffered a couple of lagouts, and ended up burned himself. But the AR pressure was relentless now that they were 4v3 and within a couple of minutes it was 4v2 when ugly duckling took out the one-life-erroneously-burned- new-sub  Jackol.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>But the consternation had only just begun at this point, as moments afterwards ugly duckling (rated AR's best player by the bot) also lagged out, and was unable to return.  Then the two subs in waiting both found out they couldn't sub in. While arguments ensued of who'd done what wrong and how to fix the snubbing of the subbing, approximately two minutes passed while fuego rifled through the paperwork with two ships firing at his windshield. Somewhat akin to A BOSS, fuego shuffled away delightfully in time and continued screaming at the rest of the team while everyone else screamed back at him, and at each other. I'm sure I saw some yanking of pigtails and someone had a bra strap torn off.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>BadLamb alleviated the furore by eventually guessing caerbannog's sub safe lock combination and entered to replace ugly duckling. This was at about the 40 minute mark. Back to 4v2 and AR slowly regained composure.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>With a 1 ship lead overall, fuego entered "run" as his macro and sat a weight on the relevant key. Then, in the final minute, he decided that "run" was non-specific as to whether from, or at, and explodiated ysymmij's second ship to bring the score to 9-7 Alpha's way.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>For the last 45 seconds there was a chase on to get Bloody Essence without endangering AR's own ships, but he proved too elusive and went on to finish 10 minutes of play with the stats of a perfect row of donuts. The final siren blew, and a sigh of relief - rather than jubilation - sounded throughout the Alpha Reunion camp. The final score was Alpha Reunion 9-7 Gods, with MVP awarded to Weezie for scoring DmgE 9% lower than second worst , runner-up was AR's ugly fu... err ... duckling.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The match itself was generally regarded by the viewing public as a very good one to watch, and will probably set up the return match as a vengeance-based bloodfest in the eyes of the very brave and dogged Gods. To have AR in a 3-ship deficit twice is sure to cause quite a smoulder.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Next weekend the victorious AR team meet Unhallowed which surely will be a litmus test ... for Unhallowed. Gods take on Rebels where again, the opportunity to learn how they're travelling will flesh itself out a little more. Hopefully both teams will have swotted up on the subbing rules by then </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Alpha Reunion's stocks look to be further bolstered by Round 3 with the addition of Ensure and Xena. to the roster. WELL IF THEY'VE EVER BEEN THERE ONCE IT COUNTS.</div>

I hear that you can record games on other subspace servers. just like in quake, cs, starcraft, lol or any other competitive game on the internet. 


Why haven't me made an effort to move pro league to one of these servers yet? And could we make an effort for next season?

 

in b4 typo in subject

After seeing a line bombing Leviathan post some pretty interesting analysis I thought I would throw my own thoughts into the mix. Enjoy.

 

 

Gods

 

After a long hiatus it's good to see this team back in league. One has to wonder how many of these new squads will stick around, but for leagues sake I hope all do. I wish nothing but the best for this team. Headed up by BloodyEssence, Gods return for season 33. The way things are shaping up I assume if there is a PRO/IML cutoff, Gods will be on the cusp. They will have to pull some upsets to get into the pro playoffs. I suggest they get on the waiver wire (so to speak) and add some active depth immediately.

 

Best starting lineup: Adept, Imperfection, Genocide, X-hail

 

 

 

Alpha Reunion

<div> </div>
<div>I'm really not sure who most of these players are but I give them props for entering league in a zone where the population has dwindled for years. Good luck guys... gotta put in the hours.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Best starting lineup: Mighty Sven, FUEGO, Hallowed by thy nam, BadLamb</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>FTNguyen</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The defending Pro League champions enter season 33 with their heads held high. After breaking Assassins hearts in the finals yet again, and going undefeated in the past few regular seasons, FTNguyen are looking for more blood as they ogle another title. The question is will another squad match them?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Best starting lineup: KiNGNeWBiE, The Village Bike, 7th, mAImER</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Shocktech</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Another new squad that got 12-0'd by Llamas in round one of the regular season. I'm sorry guys but this season is going to be freaking ugly unless you get Travis and kboom on your roster and active.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Best starting lineup: .....?</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div><b>Llamas</b></div>
<div> </div>
<div>Ah Llamas. A team that has always had potential and has always fallen short. This looks to be their breakout season as Llamas have a pretty decent roster. This squad will be vying with Rebels for the 6th spot in Pro League when the regular season is all said and done. They have the capability to make some noise if they can put it all together.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Best starting lineup: Street Fighter, babaloo, Cycl0ne, Shikaa (twista, parabola, hedcase8 in the mix for subs)</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Starfire Elite</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Good ole SFE. Whenever I see these guys playing I get a little choked up. This team reminds me of Nightwatch. Guys that have potential, never won a Pro title together but who play for fun, and play to win. I'll be pulling for these guys to make some noise but sometimes you can only get so far. Good luck SFE.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Note - MfA, use some of the energy you did last season on mines on forward moving bombs that connect.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Best starting lineup: a suicidal dentist, Mauler, gold teeth, Plutorus</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Assassins</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I'm not sure why this squad is still called Assassins. It was always intrepid + Dingo. With that being said, Intrepid enters season 33 with a strong roster. They could field at least 3 lineups with different players that would all get to the Pro playoffs. Expect this team to get far into the Pro post season.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Best starting lineup: Jake, Jae, Kdak, bhang</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Unhallowed</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Unhallowed returns to Pro League, thankfully, for season 33. I and they both wish chronos and Seismic were with them. This should be an interesting season for Unhallowed, but I don't see them going too far if one of their starters doesn't show.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Best starting lineup: Death Artist, Fre0n, Nadai, cfl</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Nuke</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Somehow Caerbannog let Dre captain a team in league. Face Palm. Thankfully Enforcer is co-captain so it won't be a huge fail. I'm also confused as to why The Dark are not back this season, but I digress. Nuke will make a lot of noise in chat this season, the question is whether or not they can actually deliver on post season game day. Talk is cheap gentlemen.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>?go duel is ----> way</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Best starting lineup: Nacre, saiyan, Blink, Da_Monkk</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Rebels</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Rebels will be competing with Llamas for the 6th spot this season. This squad really lacks a game changer. One can only imagine what Rebels could do with a player like develop/ghostbuster17/savage. But with the roster as it is right now, they will be hard pressed to get passed the top teams in Pro.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Best starting lineup: Ra, Eric Clapton, gato, Barbarian</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Requiem</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Requiem returns after a very long hiatus. A new look Requiem but Requiem nonetheless. The question for this team isn't activity but putting things together when it matters most. All main players are past Pro champions, all have the mental fortitude... cohesion will make or break this team.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Best starting lineup: Candyman, Ozn, Sika, Three</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>

First and foremost, round 2 is finally here. And from what I can tell, a wonderful season this might turn into.

 

Round 2 looks pretty....well, interesting. Starting off with two matches where people wouldn't really care to watch, then followed by a match spectator worthy, and for the finale - a match you'd definitely not want to miss out on.
