Over the course of the last 2 months, there has been a steep decline in activity since the cncnet team discontinued access to funkyfr3sh's client, and all users attempting to play Tiberian Sun are redirected to their newer client. The new client has a very nostalgic feel, is more aesthetically appealing, and new features added to it, however, the standard game has alterations to it that make it a different game than all of us who have been playing for decades did not request. The rollout of the new client was heavily discussed a couple years ago amongst the cncnet admin team, where I advised them that the only way players would migrate from funky's client to the new client would be forcefully, and in doing so would cause a drop in activity of an already fragile population. This has been the case every time we've undergone a change in servers over the years, from WOL to WUU, to XWIS, and to cncnet, each time losing a chunk of our player base. With this final maneuver of directing activity to the new client, I believe this has put the nail in the coffin for the game so many of us have poured so much of our time into. Regardless, I want to thank the team at cncnet for keeping TS alive for so long. Without you, none of us would be here so many years later. It has been a fulfilling time getting to play with many of you over the years. So many games have been infuriating, enthralling, and every emotion in between. From my early days as a modder, it was such a fun challenge to learn westwood maps and climb the ranks, competing with the best players that have ever touched TS. I want to give a special shoutout to a few players that I was fortunate enough to befriend and contributed to making my time here a pleasant one to remember: Fakemammy (Rest in Peace my friend) Avan F0odLion Killernav alter3go Megaf0rce Kapa371 zayuin00 Timmay mjvd teamxle jluv4rza xtenzi0n exile4eva mill0 bluewar88 Tezzism limemouse sm0kn Xeoning Dazirelan Hitman Snifz Tur0k Vietman Sk8ownz Mola/WeaponX- We have a history, starting off very adversarial, going in and out of toxic encounters. Within the last couple years, our interactions have shifted drastically and we've come to understand eachothers quirks, and have developed a strong sense of respect for one another. You are one of only two players that I can confidently say has been a consistent threat, and who I've needed to be on my A-game against at any time. It has been a pleasure going head-to-head against you all these years. You are a controversial figure in the grand scheme of our game, however, you have definitely carved yourself into its history as a force to be reckoned with, and a legendary foe. Thank you for so many challenging games and pushing me to the limit. Good Games! Ray/Phatmouse- You were one of the first high caliber players that I met when I started playing westwood with Avan so, so long ago. I've probably known you longer than anyone left playing TS. You have always been incredibly solid, very smart in your choices, and made every match highly engaging. You have adapted and continuously kept yourself at the forefront of the competition over so many years, and are always such an enjoyable opponent to face. I almost never won an MK fight against you, and never will again. You have my utmost respect, thank you for all the games. GGs GG everyone, -c0rpsmakr

neither of you have a clue what youre talking about.

2nd best, but every other point is cosigned.

so if me, anburner, and the other player cheat, where is your proof? being a sore loser without any clue how to play the game doesnt warrant throwing around cheat accusations. someone link mole40k's ts guide to help this person out with basics.

Hey there, i played ff with you idk how many years ago, theres still a few of us that play and we get some ff/terr games going besides the 40 mod games. Good to see you, also most people use the discord now as opposed to this

lol hi zayuin, get on for games

Thank you Sol once again, and ggs

I'll participate, however i think the final round should be played on an equal map. TL and TR are far too disadvantageous for a fair tournament for terrace to be the deciding game.

absolutely down for either. welcome back Sol :). could be 2 games terr, swapping sides, third game decided on a fair map, if you wanted to make it a terr based tournament.

It gives players at least an idea of what approach to take before the game starts, ie short range/medium/long as well as if there are terrain obstacles or not. Reduces "Build Order Wins" by a lot if everyone knows what map is being played. Any competitive rts lets players know which map is being played prior to the game starting.

There is no "vanillla TS" ladder and mod ladder. They are one in the same. I have been thinking about if the maps on the 2v2 ladder should be rejectable but the thing is, as long as the maps aren't insanely skewed to favor one faction, there should be no valid reason to allow rejections. The point of the ladder is to showcase skill as well as to reward effort for people who decide to grind it a lot. Letting people cherry-pick the maps they want to play completely voids the entire reason to even have a ladder in the first place. There is a reason I am being highly selective for the maps that will be added to the 2v2 clan ladder since the 1v1 ladder was a HUGE bungle... To be blunt, giants shouldn't even be allowed on the 2v2 ladder due to the severe favor nod has on it, but I am letting it be there because I don't want to alienate modders from the ladder. If I were to allow rejections, it would be another separation of modders and ww players on the ladder because modders would reject westwood maps and westwood players would reject mods, which also defeats the purpose of a rank. As long as everyone is willing to play any map, there should be no issues with competing.

That's not true. It just shows that you leave the game and surrender.

alt + f4 lets you abort the game without waiting for the surrender animation.

Maps are still being added to the map pool, but so far the list is as follow: Terrace Forest Fires A River Runs Near It Giants Clear 2vs2

alright, I withdraw myself.
