Oh poo, I just noticed that this page hasn't seen any action since the start of March.
yes!I am returning to the ladder after a long layoff as well. (Assuming the ladder is still a going concern which appears to be in Question. Are the standings being updated or is it just the website that's out of service?)
I will take the Japanese in J12 if you wish!
Good. Glad to hear he is ok.I got an email from Mark on May 1st.
He is fine, doing a R&D project which takes all his time these days. He'll likely be back before too much longer....
(certainly hope so, anyway)

Volunteer efforts can sometimes go into a virtual coma. Emphasis on "volunteer."Is http://aslladder.com/ dead?
Not that I'm blaming someone for anything, just asking.Volunteer efforts can sometimes go into a virtual coma. Emphasis on "volunteer."
It was good while it lasted, but even if it's never revived, I'm thankful for the original effort.
Why do you think it is dormant ? The site gets updated on a regular basis.Not that I'm blaming someone for anything, just asking.
So is there any alive ranking DB for ASL players? (beside http://asl-area.org/ which is uhm... dormant)
Is it not? How regular are the updates, from your experience?Why do you think it is dormant ? The site gets updated on a regular basis.
Interesting. What's the address of that split?There is another AREA sight for ASL but it only takes tournament results. Not sure how/why it became split off from the main AREA site. I've been trying to get some more interest going in the normal AREA site since it takes tournament and non tournament results. Slow going but slowly building. I think the main issue is that the ASL community as a whole thinks of AREA as only tournament games. I wasn't even aware of the split, because I only play a lot of 1 on 1 games, either FTF or via VASL.
Maybe 2 times a yearIs it not? How regular are the updates, from your experience?
Btw. as you will be holding your own tournament: It may be a good idea to get into touch with Bruno, who runs the AREA site, if you want him to enter the tournament results. If you follow certain formal criteria in reporting the games, you will make his live much easier as he will be able to enter the results directly into the database.Is it not?

I agree, whoever runs a tournament should contact Bruno and send him the results. AREA is the best (and only as far as I know) place where you can find a decent, realistic, reasonably updated ranking of all ASL active players. Long life to the voluntereers!Btw. as you will be holding your own tournament: It may be a good idea to get into touch with Bruno, who runs the AREA site, if you want him to enter the tournament results.

Thanks, yeah, I did that already, of course.Btw. as you will be holding your own tournament: It may be a good idea to get into touch with Bruno, who runs the AREA site, if you want him to enter the tournament results.

This link sends me to the front page of GS....not a list of rules.This thread will be used for issuing challenges and for general discussion of the Global ASL Ladder. Trash talking is condoned. :laugh:
