That is still being decided. Hopefully we can get a few more donations and maybe some help from the iCCup reps. I personally could care less about prizes, since I play solely for the enjoyment and competition that leagues bring.

The/time clause of the rules.... I don't think it works for me
.. I mean it didn't show the right time for where I am specifically every time.

I'm pretty sure majority of people stated that this is in fact not a camp...

Those types of plays have never been within the rules Spec, and people who do not see them as a camp are simply incorrect. If that situation were allowed consistently there would be too many instances of unnecessary respawn deaths.

So because of what TtS did we cannot use lateral movements? lateral movements are used to fuck up ur box, and that was always within the rules....

Zig-zag movements are effective counterplay for boxing. It's my understanding that the word lateral is being used literally, meaning you just can't move on the x-axis, but you can still zig-zag while maintaining momentum toward the flag.

Yes I know, so Was i as well...I usually change it up by going up to flag thru the middle and then at last sec when they rs, I go < or > depending on where I think they might box to either mess it up or make them change it to mc...

Wait i just re-watched them...Camp 1 is a camp? really? Thats something that we're going to restrict? He practically got to the flag and timed the rs and moved < when he spawned >? Camp 2 Ok I can agree that was some bullshit, but # 1 I really don't see any problem with. Druzil, you think camp 1 is a camp?

It's the lesser of evils for sure, in all honesty the first shot looks like he might have mistimed the respawn and intented to lure the NL. But the second respawn kill was a pretty blatant camp, there was no reason for him to dance around and lure like that. So yes, in part I do.

I don't see any mistimings, so Ima have to disagree with you, I think this play was absolutely fine and not even lesser of 2 evils, and This play should be allowed in ANY part of this game, Camp 2 is a camp and we should be working around that and ONLY that. We are not trying to just Take things out the game completely to stop 1 person from doing something like this..Instead we should getting the wording down to the T on what not to do and if that person does it anyways, give him the DQ. 1 person cannot dictate what you guys are trying to do here...Druzil, MavericK asked me to try to re-word this, But since we all know I'm not the lang whiz....can u do it?

Specialist, can you tell me where all these "within the rules...." you mention come from? I haven't found a thread that argued about any of those plays since 2013.

It's just what has been accepted by the community throughout the years, what tts is doing is fairly new, dancing tho isn't, and the lateral movement to go < and > last second to fuck up boxes isnt either, so can you tell me why u think u can just change it up?

How is the second shot in Camp 1 legal in your mind and the plays in Camp 2 are not? These videos are just examples of what not to do, it's not the only instance in which there has ever been a camp. If you feel so strongly that this should be allowed in this league, then you should take your time and construct a well thought out post; one which involves real points supporting your standpoint rather than just stating "this is how it should be cause I play a certain way".

If his initial pull to the left wasn't a mistime then it's just another unnecessary maneuver.

I don't really know what you're trying to say, so I don't think I can reword it for you.

Um, when you say accepted by the community you're not just saying that because that's what you think right?

I mean you did join the the forum 2 years after it was established. You don't speak for the community, that's what I'm saying.
