also, i know i'm a newb to this whole MVL thingie, but there are couple of stuff i'd like to ask the rest of members and organizers:
first off, i've been playing GC quite a while, tho before joining MVL i've never played with much caution or commitment, also i'm a megalomaniac and munchkin meaning "more is ALWAYS better"; putting that in GC tearms i have played well over 50 (maybe even more than 100) games, and every one of them was on huge map and above. when i joined MVL it was the first time that i've tried playing medium size map, and i must say there is a HUGE difference in tactics, priorities, and very much every other aspect of the game. that being said, i think that it would be much better to remove the map-size limitations currently present in MVL. now, i know there is one major reason (and AFAIK the only reason) why that limitation is set and that is time. some of the people can hardly find time for GC and there is a good chance that if they had to play a large or huge map, they couldn't finish it on time. and i think there is a quite simple solution for that: adding parallel rounds. lemme explain: from what i've gathered from info so far there are 12 (?) rounds/year, why not adding another six (or four) rounds that last 60 (or 90) days instead of current 30 days limit. that means that for eg. in March there is a tiny map for players to submit by the end of March, and then comes April where there is a small map players must submit by the end of April and large or huge map (immense maps would still be out because only players playing ToA could play them) the players should submit by the end of May or even June... that way every player has quite enough time to submit, there would be more rounds, more points, more different situations and tactics, and finally more FUN

; and as i said more is ALWAYS better

last i've noticed that no one (or almost no one) submits ToA games. i'd like to know why is that... i mean, granted its quite a bit harder than GC2 or DA but AFAIK in this league competing is not quite a primary goal and ToA w/o a doubt is much more fun (what i think MVL is all about, but then again i might be mistaken) and interesting than two other possibilities. it kinda strikes me as quite odd...
oh and pndrev, great nick for your MVL character
