This thread is used for applicants to sell themselves to council members in order to assist them in choosing a candidate for the position, since the council is already aware of and removed Blue_Owl from positions of authority because of personal attacks and blatantly lying to their peers, i don't feel the need to defend myself here.

Regardless, a player councillor not playing ladder has never been an issue, and critics of Tokyto's are more annoyed with lack of support or care of those areas of FAF under their custody, for example, broken ladder maps in the pool, the pool not changing, etc. As long as a PC stays active in the community, this wouldn't be a problem.

Most of my time in 2018 has been spent on the personal trainer side of things, with work on a guide already 5 pages long. I have and continue to train users on frequent basis, as you see literally one replay up in my vault.

You've been consistently proven to lie Blue_Owl, don't personally attack people because they refused to work with you.

I'll double post because the current train of thought will be removed shortly, most likely.

Didn't Tokyto have a draft for a new ladder system? how did that go?
New ladder systems are not my first point of priority. If i had to act right now, I would work towards getting the old leagues and divisions back. For now however i have other points that do not need to eat up developer time. They're explained in my application, if the need arises (The tutorials tab) i'll let you know.

Ladder should be important for the PC for both new and experienced players keeping a balance of Classic ladder maps that should be in the rotation all the time, while giving map makes a spotlight time to make more good ladder maps and played with in the rotation which can help the map makes with feedback and to help them improve there maps.

But also the PC should try to be Active with having challenges for ladder, with like seasonal events so there something new they can work towards and not have to be at huge tournaments on 1 weekend to be able to play and can lead to waiting around for other matches to Finnish.

i think the biggest issue with tokyto is that he tried to do everything himself rather than getting a bunch of dudes on the job.

this meant that he kinda didnt have time to fix all the things and then make a new map pool and then test every map in skirmish but then it doesnt load in ladder for no reason and also make a survey but no one answered the last one, and then theres 4 different systems to make and no one cares about making them, also divisions

and so on xD


so whoever wants to be new pc should be hustling a team together, and probably all candidates should be prepared to end up on that team.

as pc you get a nice avatar and you get to ask mods to change the map pool for you, and thats it really, so whatever solutions you get should be not code orientated, unless you can get extra coders on board who will do that.

good luck to the boys i guess, last time election was won with epic posters so maybe if theres a vote this time then could be some more : D

Well Since I dont know alot about hosting Tourneys myself I would ask Rowey to help me on the job ( and other Tournament Directors ofc) and I definitely like the idea of having all the other candidates in a team aswell.

@Rowey

Can you tell me a little bit more about yourself please? For example how long you are playing Sup Com? Since gpgnet times? What maps do you prefer?
Do you play ladder (1vs1) and costum games? How you found FAF? Do you like other RTS games? Why you are playing Sup Com and not Starcraft?
Something like this would be nice.

I’ve been playing supcom actively in the faf community just over 3 years now. i joined the faf community in 2011 bub with being in school and a crappy laptop never got to play any decent games. now i have more free time due to not in education anymore.

My map preference is kinda open to be honest i'm always open to give now maps a try as you can play a map once to know if its good or not.

I had started to play ladder more regularly about a month ago as i wanted to get better on it myself but then i had some net issue and i've only just fixed it this week, i aim to get back on the ladder grind and get my rank up.

Other RTS’s i've played are the red alert games, Dawn of war 1&2,Anno And some other i can't think of the top of my head.

I prefer supcom over starcraft 2 as i prefer the style of rts supcomm is compared to starcraft 2. I got so far in one of the single-player modes and one or two multiplayer games but i just did not enjoy my time playing.
