Yes because I know whats going on within the French circlejerk...

Raf's application never came through and the other application was worse. Not much more to say about it tbh.

I love Ganon =)

I dont really see how its game breaking as its bug abuse and thus against most league's rules as far as I know. Lakeside has this as well as long as I can remember.

Although that poll was probably one of the more popular things within the discussion it is kinda lacking. Main reasoning within the whitelist changes are weapons what were discussed. Active discussions with players, definitely higher level ones, are more appealing because you see the reasoning behind why they want a weapon banned/unbanned.
Personally after asking around 35-40 ETF2L Premiership players the Vaccinator got a 70% in favor of a ban. The poll of GentlemanJon had it around 50-50.

We're still actively reading these comments.

Thank you to everybody who tried to actively participate within the discussion. All feedback was read and discussed with the participating people. Although we wont be able to make everybody happy we try our best.

With Obla doing much of the work I recon we should rename it to the globla whitelist though.

We did our best to kill it but the site came back online. Hope it wasnt an issue for too many people. If there are issues just contact us like Bloodis mentioned.

Looking at it, hope to have a bit of free time in the near future to work on a bot so we can fully move off of IRC onto discord. But I wont make any promises.(Dividing our communications over both IRC and Discord seems like it would be too much of a mess)

Mainly because we wanted to do something for HL over the summer. Otherwise you wouldn't have any HL related event until next Autumn. The reason why it is a introductory tournament is because when we were discussing ideas this is the one most of the admins were interested in hosting.

If there is demand and we have admins who are available we can always also look into a hosting a 6s event to run over the same/similar period as the 6s Nations cup. This shouldn't really be an issue due to the nations cup only catering to a small part of the people. We would most likely not dub this as a introductory tournament but rather one for people from all kinds of experience. But this could be a short cup for people who would potentially be interested in Season 25. And for new players who are uncertain without having them committing to a full out 7 week season this would be a great opportunity.

I won't make any promises though seeing that I'll probably be busy with the HLO #2 myself and I doubt overseeing 2 cups at the same would run smoothly.

The beggar's has always been more situational then anything. Together with it being nerfed in The Tough Break Update there is no reason to have it banned.

Edit. Please stop turning this into a HL vs 6s thread. Thats not the point of this event nor even close to being relevant. Either go make your own thread for this or just stop it. The community having 2 gamemodes isn't an issue. The hostility that comes from the 2 gamemodes towards each other is.

Our banlist has always been mainly based off of feedback from within the community. We generally aim to have an as open whitelist as possible and none of these weapons have gotten a lot of complaints. This whitelist is the same as season 10 and we didn't hear of any overpowered weapons from there so no adjustments were made.
