The Conquerors Blog - August 2021


Welcome to the August 2021 edition of The Conquerors Blog. This month has seen various changes in the TC3 Community regarding Staff Positions! Furthermore, there have been various contests and tournaments throughout the month as well, including a TCG One-Day Tournament! Read this month’s blog to find out more, as well as see the BrokenBone Q&A, Member of the Month, and more!

The Conquering Games News:
Tired of never finding good games to play against good players? Join The Conquering Games! The Conquering Games is the TC3 official tournament and clan server. Here you can partake in brackets fit for you across the gamemodes 1v1, 2v2, and Teams. The link can be found in #other-communities in the TC3 Discord Server.

Team Tournaments

This month has not seen terribly much action take place in Team Tournaments. The Mixed Division Elimination Bracket has come to its conclusion, as Eternity took the win against The Mathematicians in the finals. Along with this, the Mixed Division Round Robin Bracket also came to an end, with Eternity also emerging victorious there.

2v2 Tournaments

Like the Team Tournaments, the 2v2 Tournaments haven’t seen terribly much action during August. Communism topped the Mixed Division Round Robin Tournament at the start of the month, while the 408th Wyvern SS won in the Mixed Division Elimination Tournament towards the end of the month.

1v1 Tournaments

Unlike the other two Tournament categories, the 1v1 Tournaments have seen a fair amount of activity over the course of August. At the beginning of the month, Fat Noob placed 1st in the Round Robin Scout Division Bracket, winning every single match. Theta beat OphioFangs to become the winner of the Scout Elimination Bracket, and IceyToes emerged victorious over Fat Noob to take the title of Juggernaut Elimination Bracket winner. The only other bracket to come to its end this month was the second Scout Elimination Bracket, where KSK Killer took the win rather easily due to half of the bracket being disqualified!

Clans

August has seen some changes to the way that Clan Points can be earned; here is the full change list:

''- KOTH gets a bonus of x2 CP - the objective must be completed (capturing the hill). ''

''- You can no longer lose CP in clan scrims or tournament scrims. ''

''- Clan scrims have a CP multiplier of x3 for the winning team. ''

''- Each clan can play a max of 3 clan scrims per day. ''

- Conquest matches that are 40 mins+ get a x1.25 multiplier.

''- If the entire enemy team leaves the server before 20 minutes, you can screenshot as usual and still get CP. Each minute in the game will be counted as 3 CP, therefore it will be calculated by 3 CP * # of mins on the timer.''

August's monthly Clan Leaderboard was topped by The Cool Maths Clan, who accumulated a total of 52,538 Clan Points over the course of the month. The runners-up were Alpha, with 49,060 CP and Toxic Dusk, with 35,753 CP.

TC3 Contests:
Story Contest

The first contest of the month was the Story Contest! This contest saw contestants compete to write the most entertaining story, linking TC3 with the World War 2 theme! Due to a lack of many submissions, only one winner was chosen; PatrioticSoldier1783 was the victor, and earned himself 5,000 coins!

Fanart Contest

The next contest of August was the Fanart Contest! As the name suggests, users compete to see who can produce the best looking TC3-related fanart! This time, the theme was Midnight. It was close, however normie-chan won with their midnight naval fleet artwork, earning 10,000 coins! AsianCalculator came 2nd place, winning 8,000 coins, while A Destroyer came 3rd and won 6,000 coins.

Troop Outfit Contest

Next up was the Troop Outfit Contest. This sees players use hats, suits, guns and flags in creative ways to make their soldiers look better than everyone else's; the theme for this contest was Warrior. Galaxylord and crimsontyphoonTeam tied for 1st place, meaning that both earned 10,000 coins. spacemonki came 2nd, while Diamondswoo came 3rd, with their outfits, meaning that they received 8,000 and 6,000 coins respectively.

Troop Formation Contest

August's final weekly contest was the Troop Formation Contest. In this contest, players must arrange their armies in unique and interesting formations in order to take the win; the formations can be useful in actual matches, or they can simply be aesthetically pleasing to win. The theme for this contest was Futuristic. Gytis won the contest, with their interesting formation, winning 10,000 coins! 2nd place saw a tie between Floppy Floppa and QuantumAstronaut, while sebas1349 took the 3rd place position.

One-Day Tournament:


August saw the 16th Edition of the TCG One-Day Tournament take place! The One Day tournament is a monthly tournament the Match Staff team hosts for its players. Participants are randomly paired with other participants to fight other paired teams in an elimination bracket. Depending on the amount of sign ups, the tournament is based off of 2v2 or 3v3 fixtures; as usual, 3v3 fixtures were used.

There were 10 teams competing in the tournament; however, each round would knock 1 team out. This obviously means that by the semi-finals, only 4 teams remained:

Group 1: lninga, JulesTheSavage6 and jormajor

Group 4: Luckanio, therockdood and soney120

Group 6: YaBoiDavood, totopanda408 and topluke999

Group 7: sentigosedge, Startile and jmoe_playz

Group 1 and Group 7 faced each other in the semi-finals, and Group 1 emerged victorious after a long, tense match on Mexico. In the other semi-final, Group 4 and Group 6 battled it out, in what was arguably the highest-ranking match of the tournament, as both teams consisted of very skilled players. After a vicious skirmish on France, Group 6 took the win, advancing to the finals.

The final match was fought on the France map once again, where Group 6 ultimately took the win over Group 1. This meant that the 16th TCG One-Day Tournament was won by YaBoiDavood, totopanda408 and topluke999, who certainly had some of the most interesting Roblox avatars as a team; each of them won 10,000 coins. Group 1 each earned 8,000 coins for placing 2nd, while Group 4 and Group 7 all earned 6,000 for placing 3rd.

Update Information:
August saw a few minor bug fixes take place relating to the Lobby Update which was released in July.

Information about Staff Members:
This month saw the closure of applications for Event Committee, Wiki Staff and Moderators.

Only 1 new person - that being YaBoiDavood - was admitted to the Event Committee team, while 4 new people were accepted into the Wiki Staff team: Galaxylord, AsianAngelo, sirgoncalo12 and teawithcake330. 5 new people were accepted into the Moderator-in-Training team; AsianAngelo, Medic Gaming, JuiceCB, MilkyWayy and mastermindsatchess.

August also saw Asian Guy who likes US Navy retire from his role as Moderator. He has served the community since April 2020, so if you see him around, thank him for his work! Furthermore, Stunhammer has retired from the role as Administrator, however is still an active member of the community, and TheYeetusDilitus has also retired from his position as Moderator! Be sure to thank both of them if you see them!

Community Q&A With Brokenbone:
Will there be specific maps made for 1v1s that are supposedly coming in the future?

Yes, special 2/3/4 player only FFA maps, coming in the near future.

How/where was the tc3 menu music made?

''Top secret! But it was from a childhood game of mine.''

'''What is your opinion on adding a sort of counterpart to the Mobile Fortress from The Conquerors Mk2? As it's one of the most talked about units from the games and was even featured in a recent QOTD.'''

''I've never looked at MK2. Its additions to TC were not approved of by me.''
