Question re Euro League's early seasons

Tue, 10 Feb 2015 20:20:25 -0600

Can't nut this one out.

Difficulties have surfaced in understanding the first two seasons of Euro league.

I have learned from various sources:
- iNET and Euro are generally interchangeable terms for the name of the league.
- Euro's first season was one competition only. There may have been no references to Omegas and so on.
- The winner of the first title was Three Crowns.
- In Season 02, Three Crowns would be renamed as Made in Sweden.
- Requiem joined in Season 02, and won the championship.
- All of this seems to be with reference to the premier competition (Pro/Omega). BALLISTICS (shown below) also mention their pride in retaining Omega status.

Now, the issues occur when I start integrating result data from various sources.
- Requiem's account of their first season (allegedly Season 02) spans matches from July to September, 1998.
- BALLISTICS website state their first season spans matches from May to August and later (undated), 1998.
- - They also mention that the next season is due to start in October.

So that sounds like Season 02 was through mid-1998.

BUT, one of BALLISTICS' opponents is given as Three Crowns, a team that should have changed name to Made in Sweden for Season 02.
- This suggests that the season was Season 01. The following season includes BALLISTICS referring to MiS as "last season's champions", suggesting mid-1998 was Season 01.
- BALLISTICS also fail to meet Requiem during the season (although not every match seems to have been recorded).
- The following season, BALLISTICS meet both Made in Sweden and Requiem. This sets off an alarm because there is some cause to believe Requiem only played one season in Euro League.

I have no idea now what's Season 01 and what's Season 02

So if anyone with a photographic memory would like to chip in and show me where I'm going wrong, I'd be most appreciative!

SVS Leagues History wiki

Thu, 05 Feb 2015 01:52:53 -0600

Over the past ... I dunno how long ... I've been scouring the net and people's heads for historical info on leagues in SVS Subspace competition. Now's probably a good time to link it here. In a wiki format, with basically zero bells or whistles, but just timeline data, I've collated everything I could find. So here it is, hopefully it's a bit of fun to look through, maybe even of use for the odd argument here and there.

>>> http://svsleagues.shoutwiki.com/ <<<

A few things to understand:

I haven't made it pretty. That wasn't the point. Sure, maybe one day. Not high on priorities. I'm already regretting some formatting conventions. I am not a web designer. I'm just a nerd with a lot of time on my hands.
Its not finished, and never will be. Clearly there are heaps of holes ... I do have more info to integrate, but its a wiki ... which means an eternal work in progress. Anyone can contribute. It can grow so long as more info is ever out there to be found.
So feel free to add stuff. You can pass info to me, or edit the site yourself. Just try to make sense, and remember to cross-reference. Ask me if you are unsure what to do or how to do it. I am notified about any changes.
ALIASES - Some aliases are linked. Some are not. In general, people no longer around got their aliases linked (if I knew them - there would be hundreds that I don't know). If they're still playing, I didn't, unless if I chatted with them and they said it was ok. A lot of obvious matches are there but that's up to the player if they are current. There might be some rare exceptions, but that's just me being inconsistent. Clearly obvious alternative names like Benji v B3NJ1, I tended to link. Again, work in progress. Most people would probably like to see all their info on one page.
Warzone and Powerball are little more than placeholders at the moment. I have some data, just haven't got around to it yet. Wanted to publicise the wiki before the finals came up. Dueling League (2v2) is still to come. Gladiator needs more filling out. Euro league is lacking a lot of data, especially Delta and Gamma. tbh Pro/IML & AML got the most focus.

Some pages of note:
- http://svsleagues.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Category:Players (I just want you to see the number of links - housebound, with OCD - what do you expect!)
- http://svsleagues.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Editor%27s_Arena - handy hints I rushed together to try to keep control in case every man and his dog wants to contribute
- http://svsleagues.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Media - essentially all the match videos and a couple of easter eggs down the bottom
- http://svsleagues.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Website_References_Catalogue - nostalgia ftw!

If you see errors, or just have info you'd like to include, by all means go for it: tell me or edit the site directly. I'll clean up any struggles with consistent format.

A lot of people have helped, generally providing info. Some of the ones who've offered a heap of info include Gruntster, Hallu, hendrix, Peeking Duck?, High Gain, twIsta, Three, Plutorus, Mighty Sven, Bargeld, Ra, Underlord, Benji, Caerbannog, Pryde - and many, many more. Thanks to everyone who put up with my questions.

Ok hope you enjoy. I suck at playing so wanted to give something other than 250 ping of aussie badness.

GoH - Pro Season 05

Mon, 12 Jan 2015 10:45:17 -0600

Anyone know/remember what "GoH" stood for?

GoH was a team that formed from ONE's players in Season 05. GoH played 5 rounds, but then ONE reformed and replaced them for the remainder of the season.

Just wondering what the acronym stood for (assuming it's an acronym).

Which team for these players?

Wed, 12 Nov 2014 08:07:03 -0600

In AML Season 08 (equates to Pro 12, commenced late 2002), the following players were each rostered with one or the other of the teams listed beside them ... but I can't work out which.

Any assistance greatly appreciated.

Historical Team/Squad appearances, Pro/IML/AML (work in progress)

Fri, 22 Feb 2013 10:38:20 -0600

Dunno if this'll work, stupid fancy BB markup ...

Footnotes (numbered on right of relevant data line)

1 changed name to Assent for AML S09

2 also aka BiP, Terrier Terrors

3 later incarnation was a namechange from Outlaws

4 known as Corrupt in S9

5 split from BlackNike midseason

6 changed name to Ferrum AML S09

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 ...
