Draft Games, BYOC's, Annual Tourneys, Weekend Death Matches (a term I have not heard in a while). How about something different.

Guys against the Girls
America vs Canada
2 person Spouse or Significant others Corp Tourney

See where I am coming from here?

And there isn't enough women playing to make even teams for the women vs men thing but I wouldn't say who do you think would win in the sense that they don't have the skills, some of them do and have impressed me at times, as for the couples challenge there isn't enough bf/gf players or wife/husband players that I know of. There used to be alot more back in the day but not anymore. And as for the canadian vs us hahahahahah that would be an easy win for the US! Woot! :P

Surely there are at least 5 decently skilled players of the fairer sex out there.

I would totally be up for a guys vs. gals game. >:)

Ladies? Care to join me? :)

I think myself, I've only seen 1 other female player since I started playing again. I'd be curious to see how many are actually out there.

I'd toss a coin as to outcome of a Male vs Female game. Of the current players that I know to be women/girls :

Steel Magnolia, Snow White, Bad Girl, Misbehavin, Killian.

Pick 5 males and go for it:)

Guys vs Gals, would not be a close game assuming we picked decent guy players..

Believe me, this is nothing against any of the females listed as all of them are excellent players.. but they are great at certain roles and I can't see them having the offense or defense to win this game.

How about a good guys vs bad guys game..

When I think of the bad boys of TW's i think of myself, jester, loc, sing, alexio... the rest of you sparkling clean goodies get a team together and take us on.

Anyone hear from ender or akor or saarducci lately? Three people that seemed to have disapeared.

Perhaps you never fought Isis, Talara, Medusa, Starr, Hekate, Cruncher, Maelene, SLG, Acid, etc. etc. You would not last more than a couple days against them. They were all Human females, laff.

Bad Girl (whom I dislike personally) could wipe most current players in a tw game.

Take my endorsement of her technical tw competence in the above context.
