New Eagle-Leader

31 05 2008

I am sad to announce the resignation of our Eagle-Leader, Azer. He has served the team well, but unfortunately cannot play anymore. Tryouts for a new leader will be held today.

Update (Again)

28 05 2008

Yes. Another update. (Isn’t it exciting?) Actually, two updates. Firstly, we have updated the Lazor syntax, which is very important. Here it is:

[Lazor-V|e|Squadron-V]Name[S|FL|RL|D|C|A]

Cryptic? Well, here’s the key.

Purple: Position (This is where the position for a squadron or corps goes

Orange: Elite squadron (Put this before your previous squadron if you are part of an elite squadron)

Green: Squadron (This is where your squadron or past squadron goes)

Red: Name (This is your Teeworlds username, i.e. “Jon”)

Cyan: Corps (S is spy, F is fighter, R is racer, D is designer, C is cartographer, and A is Allied Leader)

By the way, my name is now [e|Lazor-Leader]Jon[SL|A] 

Additionally, the clanwar mentioned below has been cancelled. Have a nice day!

OMGZ! OMGZ! Major Updates!

12 05 2008

No, the Lazor Blog is not dead. We were just hibernating. During this stage, many new changes occurred, which I will write about in this post.

  1. First of all, we have changed the way people can join. One can now join Lazor without submitting an application. I made this decision for two reasons. First of all, more than 50% percent of Teeworlds players are German, so filling out an entire form in English could be quite challenging for many. Another reason I did this was because many players are just casual gamers, and do not want to go through all the effort of writing an application if they might not use their privileges at all. However, there is a cache to this rule. A Lazor cannot join a squadron unless they apply. The difference between being a [Lazor] and a [Lazor][Eagle], say, is that the latter receives a newsletter, has access to the LazorDB, can join the racer or fighter corps or become a designer or cartographer. Squadron members can also participate in clanwars depending on their skills. It’s like a demo and a full version of an application, except you don’t get constant notifications and you don’t have to pay.
  2. Another important bit of news is that we finally have a server. Yes, you heard me. A SERVER!!!! The server, called Lazor Clan Server, has a new map called Terraces and is partly instantgib. Big thanks to Grégoire Passault for hosting the server. Another new Lazor, Dragon647, plans on creating a training server that is only open to squadron members. But while you wait, come on over to The “Lazor Clan Server” and have fun! Our third clanwar will be held on this server on Sunday, 4:00, American EST, so Lazors, let’s get ready to rumble!!!!
  3. Finally, Lazor has created the Lazor Allies, a group of other clans who have essentially merged with us but still recruit and govern themselves separately. However, people from the BRZ, and Blackwhite Clans, our allies, can fight in clanwars and become part of our racer or fighter corps or become a designer or cartographer. Actually, the leader of the Blackwhite clan, Shaggy®, now presides over the racing corps. Give him a hand! If you are a clanleader who is interested in becoming a Lazor-ally, just notify us at b14ckm4g3 |AT| comcast |DOT| net, and simply add [Lazor-A] to you and all of your clan-members names.

Thank you, everybody, for reading this, and I hope this clarified things more.

By the way, the post below was an April Fool’s Joke.





THREE Important Updates

21 03 2008

IMPORTANT! ALL LAZORS MUST READ! There are not one or two, but three important updates. These are all crucial to the team’s integrity and well-being, so please read through this blog post carefully. Firstly, the Eagle Squadron finally has a leader. He is [Lazor][Eagle-Leader] Azer . Please remember this name; it will aid you in battle. This is probably our most important change that will occur in a long time.


Another update is our new site. I have changed it once again because the older version, despite its striking GUI, lacked tags and categories for each post. What’s more, its minimalistic design made it difficult to navigate and become accustomed to the interface. Our new site has all of the features the older site lacked, and has a custom header that now has an image of a dark black tee with red eyes saying “Oop!” (the Teewars slogan). I hope you enjoy our new look and feel.


Finally, the password for the LazorDB will be given out soon. However, in order to obtain it, you must agree to a few terms. These terms will be listed in an email that will be given to each Lazor member once we have obtained a mailing list. An option to include your email on the site will also be included. The password you get will also be valid for the Lazor server (once we get one) Thank you for reading this lengthy post, and thank you for your time and patience while our team is still beginning.

New Name!

19 03 2008

I have a new name. It is now [Lazor-Leader]..::J.o.n::.. Yeah, I’ve gone along with .,;obscure;,. and decided to do some wordart (or rather, period and colon art.) “Why did I post this?” some of you might be asking. I wanted to let you know so you think I am not an imposter. Imposters are a very real danger; I saw two of them today. So, please, whenever you change your name, notify me, and I will post it on this site. Thank you for reading this.

Clarifications, Clarifications

15 03 2008

IMPORTANT! ALL LAZORS MUST READ There is a standard form of username for any Lazor member. It goes like this [Lazor-Position][Squadron-Position] Username. Notice that everything is capitalized, (except for the username, which can be whatever you want) and there is no space between the squadron and the Lazor brackets and a space between the final bracket and the username. Also notice that there is a dash between the team/squadron name and the position, not a slash. So my username is [Lazor-Leader] Jon.Y3K’s is [Lazor-Vice][Phoenix-Leader] Y3K. .,;obscure;,.’s is [Lazor][Phoenix] .,;obscure;,.


Also, if you would like the Lazor Newsletter (coming soon), you will have to give your email to the name listed on the signup page. You will also be given to the special Lazor Server (also coming soon) with maps by Y3K and the special Lazor database. If you would like to switch teams, or have questions about the our team, then, again, use the aforementioned email. Thanks for reading.
