Any interest in a 1.13 ladder?

Hello!

I’ve been thinking about starting out clean in 1.13 and think a ladder would be a cool thing. People voiced similar thoughts in this thread. I did some digging for old ladder threads and this is what I came up with…

This is the most “recentâ€:

Older ones dwell in the squid’s stomach.

The old ladder rules are a bit obsolete when it comes to mods etc. so we will have to come up with new ones. I suppose a ladder is viewed as a tourney, so we can have any rules we like. Personally I would like to keep it simple to avoid shutting people out. Here’s what I came up with, based on the old ones (I’ve put question marks behind the ones I’m unsure of):

  • Ladder starts when 1.13 goes final.
  • Standard SPF rules when it comes to haxx and allowed in-game commands etc. does of course apply.
  • No interaction with nonladder allowed (trading, MP etc.). (Perhaps taking items out of the ladder would be okay? And PvP?)
  • Depending on interest there will be a vanilla and a FAM ladder. No interaction in between is allowed.
  • Both HC and SC (if there’s interest) but no interactions between them.
  • ATMA and GoMule are allowed.
  • Exploiting the bug in ATMA to make weapons indestructible is NOT permitted.
  • No “rushing†of characters is permitted (Yes, this includes HF). (?)
  • There will be a fancy table of characters (and perhaps one with grail status?).

What do you think?

Oh, there’s a poll too, and Durf is in it. So go vote!
 
Re: Any interest in a 1.13 ladder?

Voted "yes".

I would like to propose we allow RWM as standard, if 1.13 doesn't incorporate bnet runewords into SP. This way more people might join. RRM/CRM should not be necessary now runes turn up orange.

edit: Banning hacked dlls is a very good idea, it is one of the biggest contributors to the current spf rune wealth, which is, in my most humble opinion, not amusing.

ps: Thank you for picking it up, gg!

ps2: Our weird polling software took me here, it keeps puzzling me ^^

A big "yes" from me.

The rules seems great, although I also don`t think RRM/CRM should be included, but it`s no big deal if it is.

In short, I agree with everything you have posted so far:)
 
Re: Any interest in a 1.13 ladder?

yup ... this sounds nice ;)

also, I vote for separated RWM and vanilla brackets ;)
 
Re: Any interest in a 1.13 ladder?

Ladder would be good fun. Nepeta, it redirected me to the same weird thread when I voted.
 
Re: Any interest in a 1.13 ladder?

That would be nice, with all new shiny games getting boring and my RL failing me once again I wouldnt mind to join something like this to keep me sane :thumbup: Would prefer clean vanilla with nothing but ATMA/gomule, but if majority is in tainted RWM category I guess I could join ze dark side :)

edit: Oh Id like to go HC too.

Yes. Definitely.

This is uncanny... I was looking at Cattleya's 1.11 ladder thread earlier today, thinking I should post a poll to gauge the interest for a 1.13 ladder.

I'm certainly up for this. In fact, I've already given away all my 1.12 stuff in preparation and am treading water in the beta waiting for it to go final (I just hope it's not too long).

I'll be going vanilla, but am not bothered if it's RWM or not for others (preferably not, but meh, whatever). In fact, separate vanilla and FAM ladders would be ideal, assuming we get enough interest, but if it's combined it wouldn't bother me that others have an advantage.

What I would like to see is a restriction on self-MP for rushing and MP-buffing (so no DLLs, no multi-user login etc, agree with nepeta), and naturally no bringing items forward from earlier versions. I'd also add no hotmuling.

I find the overpowered RWs and time-travelled items took something away from the game for me. YMMV, but that's my experience.

I'd also be up for a 1.13 grail ladder. Great idea.

:thumbsup:

To sum up: Yes! Vanilla char ladder & grail ladder would be ideal for me.
 
Re: Any interest in a 1.13 ladder?

Yes!!

Everything in K-T's first post with all of Aconite's changes/adds on top (seriously, my thoughts exactly, to the letter), and I'm good to go.
 
Re: Any interest in a 1.13 ladder?

I like the idea of a 1.13 ladder, and would love to join as well! =)
Seeing as I still haven't gotten around to trying around the 1.13 beta (no access to b.net), all I am doing these days is messing around with a level 80 blizz sorc trying to collect some items and remember why I loved this game so much in the first place ;)

definitely in, and would love it to be vanilla, with only ATMA/Gomule allowed!
 
Re: Any interest in a 1.13 ladder?

I'm pretty sure I'll join 1.13 HC vanilla ladder as that wouldn't even change the way I'm planning to play after 1.13 comes out ;)

Edit: any news about function in gomule (atma?) resetting map seed after muling (saw someone talking about it some time ago) or its been forgotten?
I'd love that, would make me feel as close to playing unmodded as I can imagine.
 
Re: Any interest in a 1.13 ladder?

nermind: we can always do that manually, but its a bit hassle ... altough I now play atmaless only with mules and fastswitching in 1.09 and it sure cut amount of crap you stash by like 99 percent - and you learn to keep only useful things ;)

Good to see that people are interested! :thumbsup:

Regarding no hacked DLLs/multiple instances I figure that is kind of covered in "no rushing", but it could of course be written out explicitly if we like that. I have no problem with people using it for muling.

Regarding hotmuling and map seeds, I left them out because of mentioned reason. It will probably be hard to find consensus on all minor things. Personally I don't hotmule and I change map after muling and I will continue with that.

Of course one rule would say: "The only version allowed is 1.13". Forgot that.

Oh, and I will also be a vanilla man.

Got to love the forum poll worm holes! Space and time means nothing. :nod:



 
Re: Any interest in a 1.13 ladder?

Yes! I was going to suggest this, but I am lazy and never got arround to starting the thread :)

Edit: I think this rule from the last ladder
"4a. Multi-player is allowed with the restriction that all characters in-game have a maximum of 10 levels difference when starting the session. If you are starting a new character, the highest leveled character that can join the game is clvl 11 since basic math says 11-1 = 10."

Is probably a good rule to stop rushing / leaching

Aww now I look like a party pooper, I voted no.

It is a good idea, I've done many restarts in my time, 1.09x2, 1.10, 1.12. The main problem is I play with my girlfriend, she doesn't like the idea of restarting her characters after all our work, so it would be a touch pointless to play solo when I could be playing LAN :)
 
Re: Any interest in a 1.13 ladder?

Sounds fun, not sure if I'd participate (don't have much time atm) but it's a great idea :thumbup:
 
Re: Any interest in a 1.13 ladder?

Maybe I'll participate... but if I do, don't expect me to hit level 99 or something. ^^

How are you doing?

I could be interested aswell to start clean on a ladder if I can keep my interest up

Edit: will there be a chance to mix in some HC players too

Seems like a pretty cool idea. I don't know if I'd participate, but it's fun to see these things going on around the forum :). There's been quite a lack of things like this recently.
