I changed a template in the grass (WR) season, Final Fantasy VII -> Pangea Ultima ( https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=13513121) The new template was proposed and made by Rento However, since my return to Warlight from over a 2 year break, I've been progressively getting more and more disappointed with the quality of WR templates that have been created so far. Most of them feel to me like lesser copies of old strat ME,and often with more possible FTBs than old strat ME, which make the games very dependant on luck in your first turn (FF VII, Phobia... I'm looking at you).
So, being the creative man I am, I decided to make a new WR template myself. I was wondering if you could possibly include it somewhere in the Tour. I'd be very happy if that was possible. I think it's a very good and unique template.
Link to an example game: https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=13513121
What makes this template stand out:
- a combination of low starting armies per territory, 6 base income and a reinf card after first turn = FTBs are impossible! No more getting screwed by luck on your first turn! And first turn matters the most.
- a big, open map. Reinf card makes taking a 5-bonus in 2 turns guaranteed. 6 bonus is possible too. That gives a lot of picking options.
- to balance out high initial income, the reinf card is split into 6 pieces (so you start with 5). The template seems a little bit faster than old strat ME, but slower than strat MME SR, which I think is a good balance. You can check the upcoming templates here: https://www.warlight.net/Forum/262655-awp-world-tour-magazine?Offset=4and the contstant templates here: https://www.warlight.net/Forum/262655-awp-world-tour-magazine?Offset=5Please write here if you have any idea, proposals about the templates.

Because we passed the one year and as the Ranking System works, in the near future will be expired event results (which means minus points) not only new (plus points) event results. Just a reminder, results from an event will be expired when the next year event (the event in the same week) will be finished. The first event which will mean not only new but expired points too is the Elitism Africa Masters 1000. So we have a new thing: defending points (the points which will be expired and you need gain minimum the same amount to not decrease your Ranking points total). With the end of the present grass (WR) season here are the biggest expired points (the end = when all events from the WR season + Elitism Africe will be finished)  So a new era are coming on the Tour? Or the players will be able to defend their points? We will see ;) Btw, the following events will be expired in this period:

A new event finished! The Master 1000 tour on Battle Islands V finished!
Battle Island V was one of the big Master tournaments. Lots of points could be gained by performing well! Congratulations to Rakleader. He wins the tournament and gains a nice 1000 points! Rakleaders current position is 6th. But he will rise thanks to this result. Very well done Rak! Second place goes to ANT. ANT is currently 7th (right after Rak) and will also gain a nice points boost thanks to his great performance. Congrats to you as well, ANT! The other players who made it to the semi-finals were Sultan Kosmitow and Alexander. They did a great job making it so far! Interestingly, nobody out of the current top 5 finished very high. The best results came from Pana, Buns and Wini, who all went 2-1. The top 16 ended up looking like this:  As we can see, both the Turtles and ONE! did a good job in this tournament. Final: https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=13543704

A new event finished! 44. AWP World Tour - 500 Series - Poland https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer/Tournament?ID=22890Congratulations to Arkanton for his third (!) Tour event win, nice job! It means +455 points after his previous +600 points from the last Masters. Slowly we can start speak about the big TOP7 ;) This was an old-timer template where two old-timer players fought in the finals, they played at home, not because the old-timer thing above but because the Poland map too (both of them are Polish :D ) Congrats to Wini as well for the second place and the + 255 points! Congrats to Hades and Edge too (both of them are very stable (good) on the Tour recently) Here are the TOP16:  The tourney was dominated a lot by Lynx! ANT is Arkanton, so 3 players of the TOP4 was from Lynx

Monthly Tour Update - 06/2017 - The TOP10 on the Tour after June:
Pana is still the first position, already in the 6th consecutive months, amazing performance!
He earned a 7-3 records in the last month and got 90 additional points.
MIFRAN holds his second position, earned a 8-4 records and got 110 additional points.
But unfortunatelly he is "heading towards retirement" :((((
(he didn't join to the Old 1v1 Ladder Grand Slam where he is the title holder (which means -2000 points for him immediatelly after that new Grand Slam event will be finished))
Buns holds his third position, earned a 4-2 records and got 90 additional points.
He has got still the best win percentage (76%)
rakleader is the man of the month!
He earned a miraculous 19-3 records and got 2000 additional points! Very well done!
With this marvelous performance he broke the rule of the Big Four, and got the 4th position (and so close to the second too)
MoD earned a 2-4 records and got 45 additional points, but sunk one position.
Because I did a mistake earlier in the Rankings (I counted GME III 500 Series event as a 250 Series event...) and now corrected, he technically got +250 points too in this month (I will correct the last two monthly rankings too)
Wini earned a nice 14-4 records and got a very good 570 additional points, but still sunk one position, because of raklader's phenomenal performance. Although he closed to MoD (only 355 points difference)
Arkanton earned a super 16-4 records and got an amazing 1055 additional points, and very closed to the TOP positions. Btw, he changed to his main account (from ANT of Turtle to Arkanton of Lynx), this is why you can see this name change.
Hades earned a very good 15-5 records too and got a nice 500 additional points, and with these he raised to the 8th position, congratulations!
Timinator earned a good 8-3 records and got a very nice 670 additional points, and he arrived to the TOP10 (although not yet any event win :P ;) )
FlyingBender earned a 1-3 records and got 20 additional points, and sunk to the 10th position (but still in the TOP10).
- Some additional good performance from outside of the TOP10.
Pardon99 earned a very nice 13-3 records and got cool 680 additional points, and raised from the 115th to the 36th position. Very well done!
Master Bjarke earned a very good 14-5 records and got nice 580 additional points, and raised from the 44th to the 26th position. Congratulations!
Sułtan Kosmitów earned a 7-2 records and got 380 additional points, and raised from the 30th to the 25th position.
INSIDE earned a 5-1 records and got 360 additional points, and raised from the 83th to the 48th position.
Alexander earned a 5-1 records and got 360 additional points, and raised to the 64th position (he is new in the Rankings)
Edge earned a 8-4 records and got 350 additional points, and raised from the 24th to the 17th position.
Njord earned a 5-4 records and got 300 additional points, and raised from the 38th to the 32th position.
Reza earned a 8-4 records and got 280 additional points, and raised from the 78th to the 54th position.

New event finished! 39. AWP World Tour - 250 Series - Great Lakes I - LFD https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer/Tournament?ID=22564Congratulations to Rento for his first Tour event win! With these 250 points he won't be in the TOP50 yet :O (although he has got a nice QF from MA Grand Slam, so he will soon). Congrats to rakleader for the final. It is "only" 105 additional points for him, but with these he can reach the third position (if Buns won't gain any points of course). Congrats Rob and Timi as well. Here are the TOP16:

My monthly ongoing events analysis post is coming! :) I updated the Events google docs: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ao0SlM6Kv6CE1-Ha5mBIrI6nj4Uft2lMaE25qbXxWHs/pub?gid=648212339&output=htmlI collected the present finals (F, SF, QF) positions from the ongoing events (+ the Great Lakes I - LFD 250 Series event won by Rento), so here are the players with 2 or more finals (the + means still in the event): - 3
Octane (1F+, 1SF+, 1QF+)
Master Bjarke (1F+, 1QF+, 1QF)
Jackie Treehorn (1SF+, 1SF, 1QF)
Quicksilver (1SF+, 2QF+)
Juan (1QF+, 2QF)
- 2
Rento (1W, 1QF)
Panagiotis (1F+, 1SF+)
Phaeril (1F+, 1QF)
rakleader (1F, 1QF)
Timinator (1SF+, 1SF)
PJ017 (2QF+)
Milly (1QF+, 1QF)
AI (1QF+, 1QF)
dry-clean-only (2QF)
Hades (2QF)
Muli (2QF)
Additionally I collected all present major events (except fresh started Old 1v1 Ladder Grand Slam) and QF+ small events point status for the TOP20 + players above, and here are the Rankings based on those present minimum points (in the brackets the possible maximum points but only from majors):  Pana has got a big lead! And what would be if he didn't boot so much during his "retiring" :O Seems the first position will change not recently. Btw, he has got 960 not counted points from ongoing events. rakleader is already in the second position in this virtual ranking list! He has got 330 not counted points from ongoing events. Wini is the 6th player who passed the 4k points! He has got 540 not counted points from ongoing events. Timinator stepped forward again (overtook Hades) because he has got a nice 830 not counted points from ongoing events. Master Bjarke is on the TOP10 (!) because he has got 1450 not counted points from ongoing events. Some other high not counted points: Krunx (720) Super Smoove (720) Rento (610) Treehorn (520) AI (430) Hades (380) Phaeril (375) Octane (375) I wrote here an interesting stat too, Quicksilver has got 10 not counted victory (and 0 defeat) from ongoing events, so his present record is 24-2 (!), which means 92% win rate. Nice but not enough brave to go for the first place in the Rankings :P

AWP World Tour - 250 Series - Macedonia No Split https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer/Tournament?ID=22945Congratulations to Quicksilver for his second Tour event win! 2 event wins of 4 events, nice performance! Only MIFRAN and Pana was able to beat him so far, he has got 20-2 records! Even better if we count his two ongoing events: 29-2! 93% winning rate! So very nice numbers, only problem they are worth "nothing" from Rankings points of view :P ;) Congrats to Cowboy for the final! I can see more and more 101st players in the finals positions of the Tour events, nice! And congrats to the two vetarans, INSIDE and CONQUISTADORS as well! Here are the TOP16:  48.

Hey Ekstone I just checked the google doc at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/1/d/1Ao0SlM6Kv6CE1-Ha5mBIrI6nj4Uft2lMaE25qbXxWHs/pub?gid=648212339&output=html#Is this up to date? For instance I know French Brawl finished, but it doesn't seem to be on there (and shows as unfinished in the events tab).

Monthly Tour Update - 07/2017 - The TOP10 on the Tour after July:
Pana is still in the first position, already in the 7th consecutive months, nice!
He earned a 1-1 records in the last month and got 0 additional points.
MIFRAN holds his second position, earned a 0-1 records and got 0 additional points.
rakleader is the only player who can improve position, he is already on the podium!
He earned a nice 8-3 records and got 105 additional points.
Buns didn't play any of the finished events (so 0-0 records in July) and sunk one position.
MoD earned a 0-1 records and got 0 additional points.
Wini earned a 2-2 records and got a 0 additional points.
Arkanton earned a 1-3 records and got 0 additional points.
Hades earned a 5-2 records and got a 0 additional points.
Timinator earned a good 4-1 records and got 45 additional points, breaking the 2000 limit.
FlyingBender earned a 2-2 records and got 0 additional points.
It was a very "boring" month regarding the TOP10, only the constantly rising rakleader is a story here, but that is a nice story, congrats m8!
- So let's see some good performance from outside of the TOP10.
Quicksilver earned a clean 6-0 records and got 250 additional points, and raised from the 15th to the 13th position. He won his second event, and he improved his already very nice winning records to 20-2. And some spoiler, because in the meantime he won his third events, and reached plus one more final, so his present record is 31-2! :O
Very impressive, only problem that both two events are only 250 Series, so instead of making amazing winning records he should start to gain points from major events :P ;)
JV earned a nice 7-2 records and got a cool 480 additional points, and raised from the 53th to the 30th position. Very well done!
Rento earned a very good 6-1 records and got nice 250 additional points, and raised from the 98th to the 62th position. Congratulations!
Love earned a nice 6-2 records and got 290 additional points, and raised from the 12th to the 11th position. Congrats for this another nice final!
Cowboy earned a nice 5-1 records and got 150 additional points, and raised to the 111th position (he is new in the Rankings)
ps earned a 4-2 records and got 160 additional points, and raised from the 16th to the 15th position.
PJ017 earned a nice 4-1 records and got 160 additional points, and raised from the 29th to the 25th position.
CONQUISTADORS earned a 5-2 records and got 110 additional points, and raised from the 80th to the 65th position.
INSIDE earned a nice 4-1 records and got 90 additional points, and raised from the 48th to the 43th position.
Rob earned a 5-3 records and got 70 additional points, and raised from the 20th to the 18th position.

I don't think I got updated in the spreadsheet. I've had a good performance this last month.
How do you update the scorings? I can't find it viable that you go through every tournament going through every players score..
