I'm surprised you've kept your beta tester status with such negativity.

I have quite an extensive marketing plan if you're at all interested. It will take time, and effort to execute properly. I have been investing time in (successfully) gathering resources in order to achieve our goal.

Let's think positive. The vibe people here put out is the vibe new comers will see and reflect. With comments like that, you're self inflicting.

I'm just sceptic, that's all.

The idea of a league is not only to have the actual league (obviously), but to raise awareness for the game.

If a popular league site such as TWL, IGL (absolute y0) or such hosted a league, all the league players from other games such as TF2, CS etc would see it and they could possibly try out the game because its free. Since these would be competitive players, many of them would be accepting of a high skill ceiling and would try to learn to play.

The problem with the old 2v2 league imo was that it was hosted through Fortress-Forever, so it produced absolutely no awareness.

We'll be reaching out to the largest leagues, globally.

We need to offer these leagues something in return - which is what I am currently working on.

Map pool for 2v2?

Also, keep us posted, absolute.

I'm awesome at spamming forums, so if you need someone to do that, I'm your man.

To me, good maps for 2v2 so far are:

Code:
ff_openfire
ff_shutdown2 (No plank)
ff_schtop
ff_destroy (No button, except to deactivate)
ff_xpress
ff_myth
Theres alot more that I can't think of now But people always say there aren't many maps... With this here, if theres 1 match a week, thats already 6 weeks work of matches! Theres many more maps that I am forgetting as well, so thats probably like 8-9 weeks of matches.
