Just a little aside: not having nor enforcing rules will cause more problems than "red tape". I speak from experience and the RAIL - we had rules, but they were not rigerously enforced, and people left the whole thing with a bad taste in their mouths.

I'm really not sure that a DTAS 3v3 league would be effective, as said before. Especially if it's based around smaller maps, you might as well just make it TDM. Alternatively, you can make it Foxhunt, which could be interesting (but maybe not as ligntning-fast), or help me out with the 3v3 specialist league which has been idling for many months.

EDIT: I agree with Keg, you need some sort of guidelines for matches and methods of enforcing it.

Guys guidelines and rules will of course be in place. But at a minimum. Things should run smoothly. I expect the league to start by the end of February LATEST. I need you guys interested in joining the league to go register for our forums and post there so people can see your interested. If you are having a hard time forming a team get on the forums and put up a help wanted sign. Im sure someone will scoop you up, if not just ask other help wanteds. Theres no need for team leaders if you dont want.

As for the other question, that a 3 vs 3 wont work for DTAS. We are currently attempting to recode DTAS to accomadate a 1 person flag cap and a 1 person defense enability. This way all 3 members must be eliminated to win or you can cap the flag as an option. We are still tinkering these though so stay tuned. Again the goal is fun first.

I still don't understand why you're making it a DTAS league. It makes even less sense if you're planning to have 1-man caps and 1-man defense... why not just have TDM?

You've made a fatal mistake though, stating a start date. The start date should be when everything is ready.

Well two aspects of DTAS will work with any teamsize

- Orders defender and attacker are clear -> no "everyone camp!"
- Opponents will find eachother quick -> no "everyone wander around randomly"

... that said I do hope for a 4:4 configuration and "original" DTAS rules

Looks to me that the 4 vs. 4 option with classic dtas could provide good team oriented gameplay, while 3 vs. 3 and one man cap could easily turn into tdmish "lone wolves" gameplay. I'm personally all for the first option.

Agreed. As said several times on the dtas thread, dtas with a 1 man cap is not dtas anymore. Too bad, i was getting kinda enthousiast about this... well i guess you can't please everyone.

Nuke is correct. For some reason you guys are totally stuck on the 2 man cap rule because you think it magically increases teamwork.

With DTAS death in 3v3, the defenders have a huge advantage, especially on the small maps the league will play on.

Teammates wanted thread at DTASAL forum

FYI - I have created a sticky at the DTASAL Forum for people to ask for or look for teammates. All I ask is that when you find a team please update your post to reflect this.

COMPROMISE:

How about you can make TWO teams for yourself? a 3 vs 3 small maps team and a 4 vs 4 small/medium map team? You can pair with totally seperate people than your 3vs3 or 4 vs4 team and scoring for that league will be seperate from the 3 vs 3 league? 4vs4 will require 2 man caps and 2 man defends. Fair enough?

Hi! I'm interested in playing this league, too. But I prefer 4 vs 4. I will ask my platoon and hope that there enough players...

If you cant get enough people in your platoon to form a team with you you can always get 2 people from another clan or non clanners to form a team for either the 3 vs 3 , 4 vs 4, or both.
