I miss AQSL

Post by Den »

Im bored and i thought: oh what the heck, lets write something about AQSL. When i just heard about AQSL, i was still a noob and had my own dutchie clan called DAS with some of the best dutchi players we had (Manga, Chris, Guard etc). I wanted to enter AQSL with my clan DAS but my other teammates diddnt like to play in the UK or have never played in the UK. Manga was allready in an UK clan: QWA. So i joined an UK clan called: AV - Action Veterans and played my first aqsl game and it was great :) played couple months there and then moved on to QWA and few other uk clans,

My AQSL clans:
AV, QWA, DoP3, RoX

Hmm not sure about s4p

..

Anyway, The AQSL Story!

The idea of the AQSL was originally concepted between Greedy and Makhno (long before time began) and a few more people joined them to start it up. Unfortunately, most of the people 'faded away'. Greedy still wanted to run the league, but without any help, he wouldn't have succeeded. Then Deathwatch offered Greedy help in running the league and he made a few suggestions as to the league should be run. After long discussions and a few models of the league, they finally agreed on a system and decided it was time to start it.

The first AQSL Season started in December '99. and was a success.

The first season of the AQSL was run in a tournament style, with four divisions of eight clans battling each other, the top 4 clans of each division would then move to a knockout round to decide who'd be the winner of the season.

The knockout ended in a final between LCA and chug on the 12th of December. The winner of the final was LCA. 2nd place was for chug, 3rd for RaP3 and the 4th for RoAr.

The second season of the league was also run as a tournament, although with slightly different rules, which were used to prevent the problem of clans folding and keep the league going. The new rules also sorted the divisions by putting the stronger clans in the same divisions.

Before the rules were put into action, many hours of discussion and testing took place in order to make sure that the best rules were used.

The knockout stage ended with RaP3 as winners, DASH as runners up and bl33t in 3rd place. At the end of the season, Greedy had become too busy with other things to keep on going with the league, and had become inactive.

** You guys really have to see the demo of this game.

Season 3 brought with it more changes. Deathwatch left the head admin position due to real life responsibilities and left it to Adramelech and Obby.

The third season was run like the football leagues, 5 divisions of 8 clans, with a 7 week season. Because of the switch of site, rules and ownership, there were many small problems which were conquered at the end.

The season ended with a narrow win from RaP3, followed by DP in second place.

Gonna add the scores of the next seasons later :)

I think i only pldone seaseon of aqsl... namely the last one... Beforethat i wasinnone aqsl particpating clans. Tho i must say aqsl was and still is the best league there was/is.



And the fact they didn't have a 10th was because bw went commercial and stuff.... That also made alot of AQ2 players to become inactive/quit i think

I played one season of BWAQSL and I helped our team to come top of our division with no losses. We made it to division 2. Guess what clan it is :)
I don't give a shit.
