Last spring I was bored with the lack of competition in the gx (team deathmatch) community, and I started a league that I called "united deathmatch league" or udml that hosted a 4v4 ladder. It was up for just shy of ten weeks, had 7 clans signed up at one point, but inevitably it just slowed to a halt. I had to make a judgement call at a match after one of the teams stuffed a quit command to the other during a match that ruffled quite a few feathers. After that it just seemed like everyone quit going the extra mile to schedule/play their matches, wasn't anyones fault really, it's just some peoples grudges sucked the fun right out it.

Anyways, Laurelin said something about twl and I told him that I've decided against competing in it, that instead I'm going to try and get things at devine up and going again and possibly do a fall season of udml, but with a tourney instead of a ladder this time. He said it sounded interesting to him, then told console who was also somewhat interested, so I figured I would make a forum post and see what the rest of you thought about me bringing udml to tastyspleen next month.

The way this is going to work is we would need anywhere from 5 to 8 4v4 teams (you can count |D| as one already so make that 4-7 teams) each team would play each other once, best 2 out of 3 maps, 20 min timelimit, each map win would count as 1 point, the 4 teams with the highest points would go on to a bracket for either single or double elimination (there would be a poll to decide that) to determine the tourney winner. This would all of course start around the time of the semi-finals of the 2v2 tourney so that everyone would have enough time to practice. If you think you or your clan might be interested in something like this, leave a message on this thread.
