I mean for tier 3 you FORCE players not to contract wrists at all? The best players in this mod all contract wrists because it's better. And then you also require supplexing for tier 3, which if you try to supplex with extended wrists it's not nearly as effective and it will get your fingertips DQ'ed more often than not.

Snake I like what you did with TW, but I don't think you're getting the concept of Team Aikido. Aikido is a mod where many play styles are effective and you have a lot of freedom to play how you'd like, yet snake you're making this org into a very narrow minded approach at a mod that's much bigger than that.

You should either take your bushido crap elsewhere, or change the ranking requirements so that people don't need to play "realistically" to be considered a great aikido player.

and plus, ranking up in the org is the only thing that could keep me playing this game for a bit more than I've already done, however I do not play seriously, for me a game is a weapon of fun, therefore I do not care about TC's or Items, and requiring payments to rank up didn't sound good to me.

I practice martial arts in real life and I understand the time you need to rank up (as you can see by my signature) and the money you have to pay, but putting this in a game makes it much more strict than it should be.

For me, the org should be a place where people who share interests hang out and have fun, and not an real life based academy where you have to wait and pay to rank up just to brag about it.

And its not "I want to leave" its "I've left already" the only thing is that hey didn't remove me from the list yet.

I got a belt exam in real life today that I must help people with. I'll check on later to see where this discussion is going.

too much aggression, probably you can't execute some of techniques showcased,
anyway contracting wrist on first turn give too much of an advantage (inner grab) if you can't win without inner grab - you probably lack some skill,

i should fix the description on wrists, done

the approach is to make sure player is playing whole variety of aikido mods with small and big dojos AND learn variety of techniques, no need to take "marketing" speach too seriously.

if you have concrete suggestions on how to improve ranking table - i'm all ears.

everybody want events, yet nobody wants to contribute for prizes. where does tc for event prizes comes from?
consider these small fees as donation, no need to get upset. if you know other way to raise tc for events, i'm all ears and yes, i'm talking about events, not tourneys

HiPower already had the great idea of having tags that describe your play style, maybe [C] or [E] for contracted or extended wrists, or [B] and [R] for Bushido and Regular style.

"i don't like it, i don't know how to fix it, i don't care snake do something"

what the hell with this additude? am i obliged to you or something? talk like that to your mom, don't annoy me.

i'm not here to nurse anyone, if you think i will jump around to make you pleased - no, i would not, so eather change your tone of fuck off

the description idea was implemented by me (again) in team wushu, because in wushu playstyle may differ alot, while in aikido playstyle is differ only by techniques person actively use.

"i don't know what but you should do something"

no. if you have concrete suggestions - i'm listening. if not - don't waste my time.

if all you are capable of is doublegrabs and kicking in abd - your problem, not mine. broaden your tools by learning more techniques.

if you are good player, none of techniques listed should cause complications, consider these as challenges.

if you react so colorful when your expectations of being top player are crushed by the fact you can't do something, means you need to learn more


I don't care how you implement changes, but this org cannot be centralized around a small style of aikido gameplay when there is much MUCH more to aikido.

like what?.. dms and tripoding? tell me

Also you went ahead and made accusations against my skill level based on my post? That's plain out rude when I'm just giving a suggestion.

you react too colorful, so i did the correct asumption why you are so pissed of.
if you was able to execute these "crappy" techniques, which is not a problem for any decent player (just 8 more joints in active use) you would not ask me to change something to meet your expectations where you can't move 8 more joints and yet to be a top player.


Why don't you duel me using your Bushido style and I'll actually use effective methods that have been shaped by the players of toribash over 5+ years and we'll see who wins.

sure, in spiritwrestling, 6 y/o clan legue mod

also the most effective method is shovel, so i don't get your reasoning

Lets move this discussion here: http://forum.toribash.com/showthread.php?t=478045

here is your answer.

don't test my patience, i'm not your mom



we had a nice little banter long time ago with poop and later with shacky about these techniques, they were sceptic at first, considering both were already top belts and playing abd, but as soon as they were able to pull off full throw, they did agree that this way is indeed pretty good.

it reminds me improv vs opener debate from TW, really, but thats too early for that
