Miz, the only thing the staff should be thinking about right now is ASSS. Get Chaos/League on ASSS as the first step to a single SVS zone. WZ will be able to join as the problem of who gets the public spawn is moot as WZ can appear on the zone list. Same thing for Alpha.

Plus you can get Premier League back on the zone lists too. Have one 4v4 spawn called Premier League, add it to the zone lists then play the big games in there on Sunday and prac there during the week. The only thing the staff should be thinking about right now is ASSS and not just Chaos and Prem staff. Another thing ASSS would be able to let us do is have pub spawns for finals appear on the zone lists too.

Getting Chaos/League and eventually WZ and Alpha in the same zone on ASSS would do a hell of a lot more for SVS than making changes to Chaos pub. As things stand now league is not going to move anywhere. WZ can't move to Chaos under Subgame as it needs to be the public spawn and that is just not going to happen. The WZ Cup is a good idea and WZ league games can be hosted anywhere. Alpha is still the best entry zone for new players, it still works and it still needs to be a zone in it's own right. ASSS is the logical next step. Then we can have a single SVS zone with the following spawns appearing on the zones list:

SSCX Alpha West (current alpha zone)
SSCX Chaos Zone (current chaos pub)
SSCX Premier League (?go 4v4a)
SSCX Warzone CTF (current wz)
SSCX Dueling Arizona (?go 2v2)
SSCX Turf Arizona (OK, That's just me daydreaming)

Then keep the other spawns as sub arenas (duel, battle, scrabble, chess etc.). Although you wouldn't need all the sub arenas. for example you'd only need one from ?go duel and ?go battle I'd also suggest changing the names too:

SVS Alpha West
SVS Chaos Zone
SVS Premier League and so on.

Miz, you really need to speak to Devoit/BlueGoku and find out what HZ has done on ASSS in a very short space of time, and with the PB guys also. This is what I would be doing now:

1. Start an ASSS SVS test zone
2. Get every SVS zone sysop involved in the development of it.
3. Start an SVS website (I'd be willing to help there).

I really don't know the SVS upper staff's views on ASSS. I've heard that Ghost Ship isn't in favour of it, dunno if that's true or not. I know Wonderer isn't in favour of WZ moving to Chaos/League right now, but that's because WZ needs to be the pub spawn. I don't know his views on ASSS. I haven't spoken to Bargeld in a long time so I have no clue on his views about ASSS, but I can remember when I floated the idea of running AML in Alpha with Pro/IML in Chaos on the Alpha forums he wasn't against it in principle.
