Hello. Apocalypse here.
As a number of you know, I've been playing Worms pretty frequently the past few weeks after returning from a good 6-month vacation (From worms, sadly... not from life). So, being that I am, I began to miss my clan-membership days.
However, contrary to what it was probably meant to be - being in a worms clan is certainly not all fun and games. An endless supply of tournaments, league matchups, and pressure from other members adds up to a pain-in-the-ass membership. My last clan was a miserable failure, amounting to only a few members (due to its exclusiveness) and soon after dying out quietly.
So, then it dawned on me. "Why bother?"
Why have a clan that pushes strict guidelines and responsibilities on all its members? Why spend hours upon hours of time and effort setting up league matches and clan tournaments when none of them ever really went anywhere? Why put our members through that if it wasn't what games were meant to be in the first place - fun?
So, I decided that I would once again create my own clan... this time, however, there would be no tournaments. No big leagues to check on every day. No special guidelines or restrictions on members. Just a group of people who share a clan tag and enjoy playing together.
Now, obviously, after the enormous hassle gone to waste after my first clan, I wasn't going to build an entire new forum just for a clan that may very well die out as well. So what resource DID I have to use? The Alliance. Thus, The Spriter's Alliance's estranged twin sister was born - The Wormer's Alliance. The clan that doesn't do anything.
To be quite honest, there's not much to being a TWA member aside from a snazzy clan tag and forum access. The basic plus is that you get to show off your clan membership without all the hassle of being in a standardized clan... and the more members we get, the more respectable an idea this will become.
So, before I go on too much longer, I'll bring this to an end with the following two words: Have fun. It's the reason most games came to be in the first place.
