Well Rogue and I have been working on a new ladder for you guys, it's an 8v8 Team King Of The Hill ladder, and we're taking suggestions as to what you'd like to see in terms of maps or anything else.

Right now I have only 3 maps under the list but we would like to have 5-6 maps in use for the ladder.

Please post your suggestions here for the ladder.

Right now we have:

Dormant Volcano Isle
Padang River Basin
Sungai Sabe Lumbermill

---

Any other maps that are small enough for a 30 minute match that you'd like to play, please post them here.

Thanks,

LOL make Cold Water Gap a map with the zone covering BOTH bunkers on either side of the bridge. That should be intereesting.
ok here r the maps i wouldl ike to see: Tenaga Delta, Mureau Water Castle, Snake River Ruins, Banyan Forest, Surga Mtn. Overwatch, Kutu Arms Market, Kecoa Crossroads, Hillyop Excavtion, and Black Rock Beach. I like theses maps alot and they all have small to ok size zones. The smalls is Tanaga Delta and the biggest is Banyan Forest. Hope u like the maps i picked

Have guns will kill
Make minimum team size 16v16 or even larger. this will let teams use all aspects of warfare assets on maps. Is'nt that what JO is supposed to be all about.
Tenaga Delta, Mureau Water Castle

also i like the 8v8 size limit, because if teams want bigger they can challenge and ask for a bigger team size

The reason for small teams is availability... while your team and maybe 2 or 3 other may be able to field 16 or more in 48 hours notice most can't.

If I see 10 or more teams with 16+ players on the 8vs8 then a 16 vs 16 will be created. But we have to start with the small ones first.
Yeah man, 8 vs 8 is fine. I mean just like the ladder, if you want to field more guys and the other team is all for it as well you play with however many you guys agree on.
is what I am seeing so far:

Tenaga Delta
Mureau Water Castle
Snake River Ruins
Banyan Forest
Surga Mtn. Overwatch
Kutu Arms Market
Kecoa Crossroads
Hillyop Excavtion
Black Rock Beach
Dormant Volcano Isle
Padang River Basin
Sungai Sabe Lumbermill
Why is everyone stuck on multiples of 8? Why not 10x10 or 12x12? It shouldn't put a strain on any clan to field that many and makes it possible to actually play the map with some strategy. Some of the maps come down to "First team to zone wins" if you only have 8x8.
Just a thought.
You should read above. The minumum is 8x8.

The option to field more si left up to the teams.
I read that and understand. But are teams really going to field more or Default to 8x8? Maybe you can enlighten me, How many of the JO:A&S matches are more than 8x8? What percentage of the total played?
Ok here it is. I created a ballot on our voting system. It is a founder's only vote so if your the founder of your team please get together with them before making this vote.

I created a founders vote on the subject of match sizes. It is currently at 8 vs 8 with option to increase if teams agree.


The vote is on whether you want to require a certain size larger than 8 vs 8.


this will give us an idea of whether teams can field that many players or not.


So please come in and vote. You will see the ballot here:

It is the sixth one down Labeled "How Many Players"
I'm not able to vote (and yes, I'm a founder)....but I vote for 10 or 12.

If your a TKOTH founder i am sorry the vote will only allow for AAS.

You can post your vote here or email it to me if you don't want it public.

Well we have 7 teams with 8 or more on TKOTH...

Now we are waiting for 3 teams minimum to get 8 on their roster.
I like the oil field map.
Wow now we have 9 teams.... one more and I can open the ladder....
There are not that many teams on the ladders. Increasing the minimum number of players will hurt the chances of getting more teams to join, not help, in my opinion. I think that you should give the ladder a chance to grow before increasing the minimum number of players.

Just my opinion.


The Butchers
Well we got all the teams and members to be able to open the ladder to challenging.

So let the fight begin....

OK, since the voting only allows for Founders of AAS teams to vote, I assume that the result of the vote will only affect the AAS ladder and not the TKOTH ladder?


The Butchers
actually when I make a vote it only allows ofr one ladder. If you read above it says if your a TKOTH founder then post yeah or neigh or email me if you want it to be kept private.
