w3arena has a consistant 250ish users in 50-60 games...while server.war2.ru is having a good day if it breaks 50
they have 1s and 2s ladder setup with a different map pool than on battle.net
i do not see why the war2 ladder cannot be setup to be useable. ironman could be killer with a large map pool, and standard could be also...except use the cases ladder formula...you guys remember cases and myleague? these days that's to much work to goto a web site to report or check on a ladder...
is there any work being done or being thought of to use the built in ladder...i hear there is a ladder but i have no idea what it is about. when i look at the ladder tab in game it just looks like bullshit.
and using tvb to count as ladder...is that still setup that was...disable that please.
i remember one of my pet maps was 1 way in 1 way out for cases on heat.net
also delete gowbne from any ladders....i don't see why an altered classic gow with 6/8 being modeled after 12/2 gets a so/so reaction...most complaints are that it makes the map ''to big'' but maps like maze and bridge to bridge feel huge because of pathing...
good luck and have fun
