Congratulations to xCaLeBx, TheKarazyVicePresident and 777Godspeed for securing a spot in the playoffs in May! I will contact each shortly in order to get addresses to send prizes.
This is a league that will run with two halves. The first half was run from 10/1/2008 to 1/6/2009 (15 weeks). The second half will be from 1/14/2009 to 4/28/2009. Playoffs will be in May. The winners of each half will get a bye in the playoffs. Second place from the first half will play third place from the second half, and vice-versa. If a player has already qualified for the playoffs from the first half, then the next player in the standings from the second half will qualify.
So I guess the first question is, "What is Type NW?" It is both a deck-building and category version we started here in the NW. Here are the details:
Type NW deck-building
- Deck size is always 70 cards
- No dominants are allowed
- Type 1 deck-building rules apply for everything else
Type NW gameplay
- Games are allotted one hour; when one hour is reached, complete the current full turn
- Name-on-name bonus and Experience credit are both used
For league play, we will keep track of wins, losses and ties along with number of lost souls that are saved by both opponents.
- Wins = 4 points
- Ties = 2 points
- Losses = 1 point
- Total redeemed lost souls will be accumulated for all players during the season
- A player may play another player twice in a week maximum to count towards league results
- There is no limit to the number of different players you play as long as they are signed up for the league
- Please PM or email all game results to me
As you can see by the point system, players are encouraged to actually play. A player with 5 losses will rank higher than a player with a win if those are the only games played. Since games are a full hour, there's a good chance there will be some 1-0 game scores and maybe some like 10-7. Who knows? :o
Prizes will go to 1st, 2nd and 3rd place for each half. Separate prizes will be given out for playoffs.
So SIGN UP now!! Just let me know...post, PM or email. :)

count me in ;D
-
If Im not auto in Im in this half too.
-
Pretty much everyone is eligible. I'm not sure why I still have the statement to "sign up". Anyone can play a NW game and count if I'm notified on this thread or a PM.
-
I finally got around to building a NW deck so I'd like to give it a try.
*edit*
I won my first ever type NW game with Janissary 6-0. It was his first game too and his offense didn't work as well as he'd expected.
-
Woot - let the games begin.........again? o_O :scratch: well, however it sounds or is supposed to sound it is game on...... ;D
Godspeed,
Mike
-
Played my second NW game tonight and won 5-1 vs Caleb.
-
After the Introduction to Redemption at the Kidz Winter Camp tonight, I should be online more to play some Type NW. I'm looking forward to it.
Godspeed,
Mike

yah I didn't even remember my deck :P I got to find some time to make a new one
-
I might be interested in joining this league....
-
Just build a deck. Play. Report your score. It's that easy!
Then wash. Rinse. Repeat. :D
-
Had my best NW game yet against 777Godspeed. He completely exhausted my offense and defense. Good thing for me that time ran out! I won 5-3.
-
Yes it was a good game and I look forward to more games with everyone.
Godspeed,
Mike
-
I would love to join but my comp is giving me loads of probems with RTS and Hmachi (sp?) if i could use aim and everyone would be ok with that i will join but other wisse i will keep working on fixing my problems and join hen ready.
-
In perhaps my most enjoyable game in recent memory, I tied Godspeed. 0-0. My offense was missing one of its most vital cards, and he could not beat my defense. It was epic, full of good battles.
-
Played Janissary in a grueling game that ended in a 0-0 tie. It was a great game that we both enjoyed tremendously.
Godspeed,
Mike
-
777Godspeed and I had a really close game. I won 4-3 but it could have gone either way since it was back and forth. No one had more than a 2 lost soul lead.
Standings are updated! :)
-
DaClock and I played a great game last night. The 6-3 win goes to DaClock.
Godspeed,
Mike
-
Mike and I had a high scoring shoot out. I won 9-4.
-
alright.
in the post in the first half i said "count me in" and i'v yet to see me on the rankings so i'll go ahead and challenge.
i challenge gabe,777godspeed and celeb for my starting 3 challenges in the tournament
-
You don't challenge in this. You play a game, and you report. Easy as that.
-
Standings updated and Raven was added! :)
-
i'm actually suprised i didn't end up at the bottem! LOL
-
i'll join
-
Raven and I just played a good game. I was up 5-4 going in to the last turn and time ran out on my turn. We finished it out and I got another ls, but Andy wasn't sure if that should be counted or not. I'll let you guys decide.

That's a good point. I don't know if I mentioned this up front. We handle the time factor like tournaments. When the time runs out, complete one full turn.
Per request, standings have been updated. :)
-
I played my first NW game against Red and won 7-1. Very entertaining format.
-
these posts are making my psyched! ;D
all i can say is:
whose next?
XD
-
Raven and I just played a rough and tough game. Final Score was a 3-3 tie.
Godspeed,
Mike
-
as you all can see I'm laying low lifes been busy so just letting you all know why I'm not flooding games like last time
-
I made a deck, but I never have time to play it seems. :-\

Have faith. :) Becuase we don't "schedule" challenges on a weekly basis, all you have to do is just keep checking Hamachi or the boards for someone to play. Eventually you'll find someone.
-
uh stamp.
ya need to update the rankings.
on page 2 me and godspeed played and tied 3-3
-
He updates as he can.
-
Standings updated. :)
-
My first game of the new season 11-3 win vs Godspeed GG man.
-
It was looking to be a close game for the first 50 mins, with me up 3-0. Then the table turned and in the first 5 mins of the last 10 mins of the game it went from 3-0 to 11-3. Yes, I was schooled by the power of the deviant deck maker and end game strategy. Good game though.
Godspeed,
Mike
-
GG Vs Ben arp (the clock) Win for me 9-3
-
Andy and I played a game that ended 5-1 in my favor but that really doesn't show what an all out battle it was.
-
Mike and I played a game where neither of us drew Lost Souls the first half. It was a slow, grinding game. I got a few Lost Souls toward the end. The final score was 5-2.
-
Standings updated. :)
-
To continue my streak of no rescuing in a game, I successfully tied Gabe to a 0-0 draw. 2nd of the year. In this country, we play for keeps. And we don't even take anything!

Hey! I tried but you wouldn't let me. :D
Great game, Alex. Although the score doesn't show it, you certainly outplayed me. :thumbup:
-
:rollin:
At this rate, you'll get to second place in no time...without ever rescuing a lost soul!
Standings updated. :)
-
at this rate i'm never gonna get to 1st place cause of my lack of knowlege of the game :(
-
you'll learn.
-
Well...I got lucky and beat RR (he used the wrong deck). Final Score 4-0.
-
I caught RR by surprise with an archtype he didn't think he'd see in type NW. Turns out those things rear their head in every format. ::)
Our first ever NW match ended 9-1 in my favor. I don't expect to be that lucky ever again. ;)
-
Gabe and I played an enjoyable game. I was using a brand new deck for me and felt very disjointed playing it. Gabe played flawlessly as is typical of his play, but I was able to eeek out a 2-1 loss.. ;D I'll make some adjustments and do a little more research to refine what I'm playing and look forward to more games.
Godspeed,
Mike

Standings updated. :)

STAMP and I played really cool game. Our decks seemed to be fairly evenly matched most of the game. There were some cool combos the came up. At the end of the game I was able to drop a nuclear bomb on him, but he still came out on top with a 4-2 win. Great game.
Godspeed,
Mike
-
i drop this leage ok
-
i'd like to unjoin also.
need to get my head cleared
-
I beat NWjohnathan 8-5
-
NWJonathan and I played a great game. Some good back and forth attacking and blocking, but ultimately NWJonathan came out on top with a 5-2 win.
Godspeed,
Mike

Standings updated. :)

Well, in my attempts to make a killer T1 deck, I made what looked to be an awesome type NW deck, so I made a few changes and would now like to test drive it sometime. Gimme a message, and if I dont have too much school, I'll see if I can play.
-
