News / Mini Cup Series | Announcement
« on: November 04, 2022, 06:44:36 pm »
 :ra2: I'm excited to finally announce the FFA Mini Cup Series! :ra2:
This event consists of 4 weekends of "mini cups" followed by a final. Starting on the 12th of November, each Saturday at 19 CEST / 13 EST, there will be a mini cup. Each mini cup 16 players will compete in a 2-round bracket (four 4-ways, winners proceed to a second 4-way). Winners of each weekend's cup qualify for a spot in the overall final (4-way) to be scheduled at a later date.

Basic details
• All players are welcome to join (as long as you are known to the community - no smurfs!)
• Play in as many weekend cups as you want
• No prizepool (we play FFA for passion and bragging rights)
• All games are 4-way FFA, time capped at 90 minutes, with the final 15 minutes as sudden death

News / FML Season 32 | Winner

:gold: :gold: :gold: :gold:

Congratulations to our FML Season 32 Champion :USA: Peregrine (Eshan)!

It was an incredibly difficult 4+ hour game, featuring multiple multi-race armies, nearly maxed-out heroes, and many incredible moments.

His victory makes him the 6th player from USA to take the title, and the 5th player to take the title with orc (and only the second time orc was picked rather than randomed!).

Thank you to everyone for participating in this season, please check back in a couple weeks for an announcement on next events. Happy FFAing!

News / FML Season 32 | Finals
« on: June 06, 2021, 06:38:54 pm »
 :FMLN:

The time has come once again for the battle for the ultimate FFA prestige: the fight for the FML season title! These four players fought tooth-and-nail throughout the season, and proved their mettle to get a spot on this stage, so congratulations to these four competitors:

:Russia: :ud: qwest
:USA: :ra: Peregrine
:Russia: :ra: sheik
:Germany: :ra: trunkz

The race representation here is interesting as we have multiple players that can play multiple races. Now we wait to see what it all comes down to when the players queue up.

Qwest, being the top seed, has chosen Imaginary Friends as the map, so it should be a very interesting game. Players - please go schedule your match and hopefully we can get a nice live stream, possibly on B2W. Everyone else - please post your predictions below, keep checking back for an announcement on the match date, and tune in and enjoy the show!

News / A look back at FML: Lots of numbers
« on: September 27, 2020, 08:52:17 pm »
 :FMLN:

Hey all, it's been quite a while since we last updated the FML stats spreadsheet. This time around I wanted to take it a step further and make a dataset of all recorded 4-player matches (minus some random cups we hosted in the past). This now includes season 1, season 6, KoFFA3, and all TBRs. I pulled 90% of that data straight from posts on this site, and added the rest from TBR spreadsheets. This should be the most comprehensive view of FML to date. The csv with the full match data is attached to this post.

If you see any errors please let me know - such as if there are two AKAs which should be associated with the same player.

Full standings and matches: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1E0Xo_M1gzLkAI5Vhg61vIeh4sL_ih2_RmSWvUQgfgVg/edit?usp=sharing

Let's get into the numbers.

Total matches recorded: 1094
Total unique players: 364

A timeline of the data - each point is a recorded match


Total players and subs - per event


Sub rate per match - a value of 0.5 means there is 1 sub roughly every other game


Players with most total wins - Wreck is still on top!


Players with most 4th places - Renaud is the king ;)


Players who have made it to 5 or more playoff matches


Players who have made it to 3 or more finals


Now for the juiciest stats...

Top winrate all time (with at least 15 games played)


Top winrate in recent seasons (S26, S27, S28, S29, S30, S31 with at least 15 games played)


Top winrate in TBR (with at least 5 games played)


Race breakdown for top 20 all time - Big shocker there :icon_rolleyes:


And finally, as a bonus for those of us who have been around long enough to have witnessed one of the greatest rivalries in FML history...I looked into the matches between Wrecktify and Magadansky:

Maga wins:
Magadansky,Walking.TrL,Wrecktify,SNK,http://ffamasters.net/index.php?topic=590.0,2007-12-04,s6
Magadansky,Nooblex,Wrecktify,Nline,http://ffamasters.net/index.php?topic=2439.0,2008-03-16,s7 (final)
Magadansky,Humans7ar,Wrecktify,SteppinRazor,http://ffamasters.net/index.php?topic=742.0,2012-09-16,s13 (final)
Magadansky,Wrecktify,Seksi,Humans7ar,http://ffamasters.net/index.php?topic=1037.0,2013-04-22,s15 (final)
Magadansky,Lightweight,PwNu.WaN,Wrecktify,http://ffamasters.net/index.php?topic=1128.0,2013-06-04,s16
Magadansky,j33,Wrecktify,qwest,http://ffamasters.net/index.php?topic=2256.0,2016-04-10,s22

Wreck wins:
Wrecktify,Magadansky,Lightweight,Vain_Endeavour,http://ffamasters.net/index.php?topic=541.0,2012-04-22,s12
Wrecktify,Magadansky,QHKane,redkeekee,http://ffamasters.net/index.php?topic=546.0,2012-04-29,s12
Wrecktify,Magadansky,svedirko,Lightweight,http://ffamasters.net/index.php?topic=1321.0,2013-09-02,s16 (final)

Ties:
Kruppe,Magadansky,Wrecktify,Mage,http://ffamasters.net/index.php?topic=298.0,2011-12-11,s11
Yane,Wrecktify,Magadansky,Ostone,http://ffamasters.net/index.php?topic=1645.0,2014-04-09,s18

From this, the all time score between those legends is Magadansky 6-2-3 Wrecktify --  they've met 11 times and 4 of those matches were finals! Of course the debate about which of these players was stronger will never end, but I think it's safe to say this is one more point for team Maga.

Hope you all enjoyed seeing some of these stats -- let's see if we can add another decade to the story ;)

Additionally, due to Ena's unsportsmanlike abuse of the Silence card rules by spamming PAUSE and GO and direct violation by typing other words, Team Shave will be deducted 5 points.

We also want to make it clear that players chatting with people outside of the game in any form is considered cheating.

News / TBR2 Full Schedule
« on: July 22, 2017, 05:43:10 am »
:FMLN:

As we are on the brink of the first matches getting started, by now each team should have received a list of their specific matches for the event. Posted below you'll find the full schedule of games for you to plan your viewing!

Please work with your captains to decide what games you'll play in. As for cards, captains must submit privately to admins which cards you will be activating this week. We will announce which cards are being used this week prior to the first match (but we will not reveal which team used a card until after each match is finished).

Cards for this week must be submitted before Sunday 9 EST (15 CET), which is one hour before the first official match. We realize this is not a lot of time, but we wanted to get into the games as soon as possible. Next week we will give more time for cards to be chosen.

A few reminders about cards:
- Each team can only use one card per match, and each card can only be used once by a team.
- Cards stack. A no-air, no-chat, identities-revealed game is possible.
- Shackle card cannot be used on random heroes maps.
- Exploration card cannot be used on random heroes maps or on team maps.
- Exploration map choices must be from maps we've used multiple times in FML and must be approved by admins.
- If multiple teams use Exploration card, map choice goes to the first team to use the card. The other team gets the card back.
- If multiple teams use Truth, Shackle, Earth, or Silence cards, each team counts as having used the card (so they can't use it again).
- Earth card means precisely no air units. You will be penalized for controlling any flying unit at any point of the game (with the exception of zeppelins ONLY on Hurricane Isle, should that situation arise).
- Silence card means precisely no chat. You are only allowed to say pause/ready/go and gg. If you type anything else, or if you say gg and don't leave immediately you will be penalized.
- Shackle card means you will be penalized if you build any of the banned heroes.

Scheduling and smurfs:
Each team should receive a list of one smurf per match. That smurf must be used for that specific match and no other. Do not create your own smurfs or use smurfs in the wrong matches Any player from a team can create the provided smurf account and join the game (hopefully that player will be the one agreed upon by the team and captain, but in the case of a player not showing up, another teammate can join using that smurf and play the match instead). Captains report to admins immediately after each match the identity of their player. Cheating or mis-reporting will be heavily penalized.

Prior to each match, captains will be informed of the 4 (or 8) smurf accounts that are to play in the match. That is to make it easy to start the game and know if all players are there. In the event that a player still isn't there after 15 minutes of the game time, a neutral sub can be used or Computer player.

News / TBR2 Begins!
« on: July 20, 2017, 03:25:49 pm »
:FMLN:

Welcome to the start of the second Team Battle Royale! Thank you all for patiently waiting for the application period to end. This time around we are introducing a number of changes, which I'll get to in more detail in just a moment, but for starters, this time we will have 5 captains drafting teams of 8 players each.

Captains

Please welcome your new captain overlords:
:USA: Mog
:Peru: ZsSuperCumulo
:Germany: Shave
:Kazakhstan: DV-
:Germany: HighTac

Captains will soon be invited into the captain channel on discord to work out the details of the live draft, which will hopefully take place in the next couple days. After the draft all players will be invited to their teams respective discord channel to begin scheduling matches. So stay tuned for that!

Now, back to the new format. You may remember from last time we had a set schedule of matches with fun modes mixed in with regular modes. Well, this time we are bringing the power of the fun modes directly to the teams themselves, in the form of cards.

Captain Cards (Edited)

Each captain will have the following 5 cards at their disposal:
- Exploration card - Captain gets map choice
- Earth card - No air units allowed
- Silence card - No chat allowed
- Shackles card - Captain bans 1 hero from each race + 1 tavern hero
- Truth card - All players' identities will be revealed before the match

Admins will publish the entire schedule of matches for the event prior to the first playweek. This schedule will include the time and map (which may include random hero maps) as well as if the match is 4-way or 2v2v2v2. Then, by the beginning of each playweek, captains will announce which cards they will use for that week. Captains can use at most one card per match, and after a card is used, it is lost and cannot be used again. So choose wisely!

Note that multiple team's cards can stack. For example if one team uses their Earth card while another uses their Silence card in the same match, then that match will be no air units and no chat!

A few more caveats: the Exploration card is first come priority, so if 2 captains go for map choice in the same match, only the first captain to announce his cards will get to choose, while the second captain will get his card back. Exploration and Shackle cards cannot be used on a random heroes map. For Shackle card, if two captains ban a different set of heroes in the same match, both cards will be applied and used. For Earth, Silence, and Truth cards, if multiple captains use it in same match, both team's card will be used up.

Games and Points (Edited)

There will be a total of 25 matches in the event, 20 four-way FFAs (regular and random heroes) and five 2v2v2v2s. Each game will involve only 4 teams, meaning each game one team will sit out.

A team will be awarded 10 points for each four-way won, and 20 points for each 2v2v2v2 won.

This time, at the beginning of the playweek, captains only need to send to admins which cards they will use. They do not need to assign players to matches at the start of the week. Captains will work with their team to send a player into a match. They only need to inform admins which player was chosen after each match is played. This will make it easier for teams to adjust plans as people's schedules change. Players can play as many games as their captain allows. However!...

If a player has already played 4 or more games, then a win for that player only awards 1 point. Similarly for the 2v2v2v2, for each player with over 4 games on a team, a win will award 9 less points for that team. As an additional incentive to give a chance to all members to play, at the end of the event if all of a team's members have played 3 or more games, then that team gets a bonus of 10 points.

Okay that about sums it up. Feel free to ask questions below, and good luck to everyone. Stay tuned for the draft and team roster announcement!

Congratulations again to :USA::ne: Sir Wrecktify for taking home the crown in our latest season of FML. We hope you all have been enjoying the short break after a tough season, however, things are never quiet around here for long.

We are officially announcing the resurgence of Team Battle Royale, back for its second installment! This time around we will be implementing a number of modifications and improvements, of which more details will follow soon.

Applications are open to everyone including new players. For those of you who missed out on the last TBR, it is essentially a team olympic event that runs over a few weeks, involving anonymous 4-way FFAs and 2v2v2v2s with various fun game modes.

A quick reminder about captains. A small amount of applicants will be chosen as captains. Captains will be responsible for drafting their team members, scheduling matches, resolving disputes, and generally being available to work with admins running the league. It can be a bit of work, so please only apply to be a captain if you are up to the task.

« on: March 19, 2017, 02:55:15 am »
:FMLN:

Congratulations to your Team Battle Royale winner: :gold: House of Ravenclaw! :gold: And of course to all its members!

:USA: Mog[skynet] (captain)
:Switzerland: noexxx
:Russia: Qwest
:USA: Eshan
:Russia: Dinamo
:Sweden: fetta_ook
:Germany: QQs
:Germany: ena1337
:Poland: Gradient
:Switzerland: Uther01

The Ravenclaw team name will be added to our Hall of Fame to commemorate their victory.

Ravenclaw showed a strong performance throughout the tournament, often trailing just behind Ponty Saint Germain, but they were able to push into first place during the last week of team games. Ponty Saint Germain also showed great performances, shocking everyone with a huge lead in points in the first two weeks. Mozarts of FFA were able to get only a few wins during the 4-way games, but came back fiercely with many impressive wins in the team games, ending with 10 points--as many points as Ponty Saint Germain. Not to forget Team Blatant Manip Flava (Team Maybe Next Time), they came close to winning in many games but fortune was not on their side as they ended the event with clean-slate of 0 wins, an achievement in its own right.

This marks the conclusion of our first Team Battle Royale event. In retrospect, it hardly seems like this event was a mere 4 weeks since we were able to pack so many games into such a short time period. Based on the feedback so far, it seems to have been a success overall, so hopefully there will be more TBR to come in the future, as we revisit the concept and make tweaks to the format. It was FML's first ever team-based event and I think there were definitely some lessons learned and things we would change for next time. More than anything, it was great to see our community compete and interact in an entirely new way with emphasis on collaboration and fighting for your team rather than just for yourself.

So thank you all for participating and making this event a fun one! Stay tuned for new information as we begin to gear up for the next iteration of FML, the milestone 25th season and Silver Anniversary!
