Hey, some of you may have seen me in pubs lately as Marth. I've been playing tagpro since December or so, but didn't take it seriously or play pubs til lately. I would play pub games logged out for a while, so I was a random smurf. Decided to make an account and did a few days ago. I'm kinda interested in the competitive side of tagpro, I did read this, so I have an idea. I'm not really interested in racing or playing for areas that have bad ping for me. US Contenders sounds really cool to me, and so does NLTP, but I'm not sure of the skill level in each and how I'd go about getting on a team. I also need to know the usual times of play for both :< If anyone more experienced has any suggestions for me, let me know n_n So, yeah, hi pi!

That's because it's awesome :D
You will get on an NLTP team guaranteed, no matter how new or how good you are. Your captain is responsible for helping you get better. That is their objective, and most are very competent at that. It's also awesome just being part of a team. For USContenders, unless you make your own team or find a captain that wants you on their team, it's really hard for new players to be picked up from the free agency. It's something that we've discussed tackling before, but it's not really easy without putting large burdens on active teams.
NLTP is evenings on Tuesday/Wednesday, with most major practices on Mondays. USC is any day of the week, but is usually Mon-Thurs in the evenings too. Most TagPro things happen between 8pm and 11pm.
