1. Provide a list of aliases. These are names that people might recognize you as:
You probably know me the best as Drahque@useast (https://entgaming.net/customstats/legio ... r/drahque/) or MathewDK@europe (https://entgaming.net/customstats/legio ... /mathewdk/). My newest alias, is VarSiTy@europe (https://entgaming.net/customstats/legio ... r/varsity/)


2. Please provide some replays of LTD Mega 3.41 games so that vouchers can better assess your skill level:
Here is three games:
a) High income with shitty units:
- https://entgaming.net/findstats.php?id=5006871

b) Perfect turret game:
- https://entgaming.net/findstats.php?id=5046123

c) Outplayed hbc:
- https://entgaming.net/findstats.php?id=4963845


3. If possible, provide a list of LIHL players who might know you or that you are acquainted with:
Everyone who played Season 1-3.


4. Any additional information that you would like to provide:
I failed a screenshot test during the end of season 3 little over a year ago and got un-vouched. I don't know if it's possible or not, but I'd like to be given another chance in LIHL. A lot have happened since 2013, I've matured a lot, come to a different understanding and hopefully I can be given a chance to show a better Drahque. I'm fully all right with me to be given a shorter line if I am to be re-vouched. And I do also fully understand if you guys don't feel like re-vouching me or giving me a chance again.

After all, I'm just a gamer like all of you. Last year I mainly spend on Diablo 3, where I build up #1 clan on HardCore, with the most active and most rank 1 and 2 positions on leaderboards (http://www.diabloprogress.com/rating.st ... tal_dps_s0 and http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/rankings/sea ... ore-team-2). I've been streaming quite a bit on D3 players request (http://www.twitch.tv/drahque), also got rank 1 in several positions (such as, haven't been beaten for 1½ month now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qiEQEBj17I) and been on DiabloFans front page 3 times now. One of which, 15k people have viewed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eEAhpWPIvUI). So, I'm still an active gamer and play a lot of strategic games.

I came back to Legion TD during december and have played it quite actively since then, first weeks I could definitely feel I were rusty, but I must say I'm as up to date as I can get in public games now. I've also spectated some LIHL games as you can see here (https://entgaming.net/customstats/legio ... r/drahque/).

Not much more I can say. Let me know your thoughts, feel free to ask your questions or share whatever you have on your mind considering re-vouching me. Or, if you think it's a no-go, then go ahead and decline me. At least I gave it a chance. :)

I don't want to bash you or anything, but there's no sense in whitewashing your unvouch :) You didn't only fail a screenshot test, you plain and simply maphacked in LIHL. I'm not sure if I want such a player in LIHL again but let's see what other people think about it (granted we think you are ready for LIHL skillwise (again), I didn't watch any replays yet).

That's the spirit !

You can SS-test me every single game if you wish. I don't mind. :) I won't ever fail one again.

Skype calls? Sounds awesome. Always fun to Skype with people with similar interests. ^^,

If he passes the replay tests I do not see any reason to keep him banned from LIHL - he had his 1 year ban and perma banning a guy for making a stupid decision just seems harsh. As a big believer in second chances I think we should give him a second chance - assuming he passes the skill requirement (which wont be a problem with the current people being approved).

Thanks for the support. It's both true about being given a second chance on that behalf and also that it's just a game. In the end, just as you have the power to re-vouch me you also have the power to un-vouch me at any moment I break any rules.

Having played roughly 800 games in LIHL and 1500+ on public, I should have at least the experience to be in LIHL. Only time will show if I do have the skill-level for the new META. :) It actually seems to be slightly more easy now, since it's easier to catch up with the new YOLO-strategy now - your not punished as hard, for making a small mistake early game, as you use to be back in season 1-3. At least that's my opinion, I don't know if I am right though. :)

I'll do my best to be/stay nice. :)

I feel I have to say a bit about this since I was a mod at the time Drahque was vouched, so I know what a pain in the ass he has been.

1. For the "second chance" thing, we have given him plenty of second, third, tenth and last chances and it always went wrong again. You can look at the unvouch archive and you will see Drahque easily holds the record of most time unvouched (probably around 4 months or more WITHOUT the maphack unvouch). We have had lots of drama surrounding Drahque, to the point where this league was a total mess, and the league has been much more light-hearted and fun since he is gone. (I looked back some topics, and if you want a sense of what he did to players without needing the details of the drama , check this topic https://entgaming.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=83&t=19713 ---not saying who was right at this particular subject, but since it has some respectable members who still play commenting on it, it shows a good impression)

2. I don't agree with the view of the posters above me on maphacking. This is an in-house league and not pub. Maphacking in such a league is unforgivable. Moreover, in legion TD it is VERY hard to spot a maphacker, so once you know he has been capable of maphacking in an in-house league, I would consider it disrespectful to other players who do follow the rules to let him back in again.

His behaviour alone is reason enough to not allow him back in this league, but since he also maphacked it should be a no-brainer, in my opinion.

No problem in my eyes ;) this nigga definitely won't build in the dark green area <3 no homo!!

Imo it's not necessary to stir up long dialogues - small steps - take it as it comes - Theres order in this league - and there will be order in the following year aswell - I vouch him ;)

While I'm not LIHL, or even play LTD for that matter, Mickey summed it up perfectly. He has been given way too many chances, and each one ended up in the same result. His chat behavior a few weeks ago is far from his claim of "maturing a lot" as well, and many staff members can back me up on this.

Each extra chance given was OVER A YEAR AGO - you don't believe in change? you don't think that if you were given another chance A YEAR LATER you'd be a changed man? Give him a chance.

Well said. A year is a hella long time and I for sure have changed for the better during that time - at least anyone who knows me IRL would agree on that part. If you don't believe anyone can change, you might as well give up on human kind.

I have issue with MH. I don't care about the circumstance, in a league like LIHL using MH means you are out. It wasn't a 1 year unvouch we did in LIHL, it was a permanent one. On pub bots, yea a 1 year unvouch might be acceptable. But this isn't pub.

I don't care about drama - no drama is rather monotonous anyways. However, this league is about principles to a large extent and was founded/continues based on those principles: MH isn't in line with them.

Dweller and Eldryan, I have one question to ask. What is the "worst case scenario" that could happen by giving me another chance?

Do you have anything to lose that you don't have whenever you accept anyone in the league? If the answer is, as Mickey wrote: "I know what a pain in the ass he has been", then can't any random new member who joins LIHL be or become a pain in the ass?

And in this case, by accepting someone you already know and have a history, doesn't it also make it a lot easier for you to get rid of me, if I were to repeat previous similar behavior? I mean, it should actually make it easier for you to un-vouch me, than any random new member, who potentially could be as much "pain in ass" or maybe even more. So, what I'm saying is, do you have more to lose by re-vouching me than any other random new member? :)
