We're up to 53 teams! Close to breaking the OW record and it's looking likely that we might break the BBEANS/GTMCS record! Can we do it? That's down to you people! ;)

Orc's Wars Series 5 - FINISHED + Future Plans
« Reply #30 on: September 30, 2023, 02:27:41 PM »
"Warning: this topic has not been posted in for at least 180 days.
Unless you're sure you want to reply, please consider starting a new topic."


I am very sure because after a long time of burnout, IRL commitments and everything else in-between: the tournament concludes tonight!


Also here is a playlist of all of OW5 to sum things up nicely:


I know GTM is kinda...eh...deserted at this point but it didn't feel right to finish this and not update the topic here! I know I haven't posted updates on here (I'm sorry) but I have been working on getting this done because I couldn't rest with this chip on my shoulder. I would like to say a big thank you/sorry to everyone who has watched, took part or just supported my tournament endeavours - it's taken a long time but I hope this has been a tournament you've all enjoyed nonetheless

If people show interest, I'll do the usual World Championship side event stuff plus I also had a Bounty Hunters-esque thing planned...not much hard work really!

Aside from that I have future tournament plans in mind. :dance: Not sure how many people view things here that aren't in the Discord but if you're new/someone who has not played in years etc then I'd love to see you in whatever I host next.

Again, thank you very much for all the support over the years - I appreciate it! :heart_smiley:

« Reply #32 on: December 31, 2023, 05:04:33 PM »


And with that, OW5 is finally done. Feels a bit weird but I'm glad I got it done at last.

Thanks everyone for the support all these years.
