So, shall we change any rules for Season15..

End the season with a 4 team Cup to settle the winner or keep the top 2 only... or skip that also?
Shall we have a round robin as usual, meaning 9 games each before cup or end of season..?

Or that is settled already?
(I'm not up to date sorry if this is settled already)

This is not decided yet, but I think 4 teams cup would be best for this many teams. With 8 teams 2 team playoffs are OK, but with 10 or 12 I think 4 encourages more competition.

Agreed. Top 4 playoff seems fine

If that is our wish ;D, we fix that if client troubles us otherwise.

4 player cup sounds great. As J-R said, i think it will encourage the final top battles more ;D

I will apply with my new team tomorrow.

Barmution · February 07, 2014, 08:52:53 AM

4 teams to the playoffs! Woo!

Luiggi · February 07, 2014, 11:00:11 AM

I don't mean to be picky but maybe the dwarf team is a bit bloated for this season? Something might have gotten overlooked...

1160 TV with 9 players = 1300 TV with loners.

As stated in J-Reedy's post, explaining TV limits...

Quotex If you have less than 11 players, your TV is that shown in the game + value of the additional linemen that will be freebooted into your team to take your player count to 11. So if you have 9 players OK and no other players, the basic cost of your linemen is 70K and your TV is shown as 1200, your true TV is 1340 (because the value of the 2 loner linemen that are automatically recruited into your team at the start of the match).

MD 1 will see a 300k TV difference, which might be slightly over the top. Also, considering dwarven loners are really, really reliable with block and tackle out of the box, the dwarves are getting quite an advantage.

What's everyone's opinion on this?

PS: Lars, don't take it personally, I have nothing against you or your team :D I'm just wondering about the regulations.

I agree that the dwarf team is currently not allowed in the newbie season according to the rules. I simply hadn't checked.

The Golden Arrow · February 07, 2014, 11:52:17 AM

Yeah, I thought it was 1160 with full team. As it is now it's indeed not allowed.

Lars · February 07, 2014, 01:59:14 PM

okej have to se what way i will go then might apply with something new then or rearange the dwarfs a bit but as of now it will probobly be something fresh. I'll comback tonight or tomorow about what path i have choosen.

Yes, the illegal whistle sound makes a big noise here me thinks.

And it's quite had to repair also, kicking more players would reduce a quite low bit also.. unless it's the slayers..
Which probable the reason to keep the team anyway.

I recommend a new team, with one Cheerleader added to it, fluff-wise.. team name:
"Now when we found her, where to go?"
