I mean for tier 3 you FORCE players not to contract wrists at all? The best players in this mod all contract wrists because it's better. And then you also require supplexing for tier 3, which if you try to supplex with extended wrists it's not nearly as effective and it will get your fingertips DQ'ed more often than not.
Snake I like what you did with TW, but I don't think you're getting the concept of Team Aikido. Aikido is a mod where many play styles are effective and you have a lot of freedom to play how you'd like, yet snake you're making this org into a very narrow minded approach at a mod that's much bigger than that.
You should either take your bushido crap elsewhere, or change the ranking requirements so that people don't need to play "realistically" to be considered a great aikido player.
and plus, ranking up in the org is the only thing that could keep me playing this game for a bit more than I've already done, however I do not play seriously, for me a game is a weapon of fun, therefore I do not care about TC's or Items, and requiring payments to rank up didn't sound good to me.
I practice martial arts in real life and I understand the time you need to rank up (as you can see by my signature) and the money you have to pay, but putting this in a game makes it much more strict than it should be.
For me, the org should be a place where people who share interests hang out and have fun, and not an real life based academy where you have to wait and pay to rank up just to brag about it.
And its not "I want to leave" its "I've left already" the only thing is that hey didn't remove me from the list yet.
I got a belt exam in real life today that I must help people with. I'll check on later to see where this discussion is going.
Congrats!
I did wing chun for a while and it was great but i've been way too busy with music studies to work on that. Especially as i'm trying to get my practice time to 4 hours a day.
Feel free to stick around as much as you like, it's not like you have to be a member to post here.

too much aggression, probably you can't execute some of techniques showcased,
anyway contracting wrist on first turn give too much of an advantage (inner grab) if you can't win without inner grab - you probably lack some skill,
the approach is to make sure player is playing whole variety of aikido mods with small and big dojos AND learn variety of techniques, no need to take "marketing" speach too seriously.
if you have concrete suggestions on how to improve ranking table - i'm all ears.

everybody want events, yet nobody wants to contribute for prizes. where does tc for event prizes comes from?
consider these small fees as donation, no need to get upset. if you know other way to raise tc for events, i'm all ears and yes, i'm talking about events, not tourneys
