Just got a copy of the game. Looking forward to joining you guys in Season 2.

Lots to learn but that;'s what I like about the game, strategy and you can't just step in and play. Too much to the game to just step in and play.

See ya in game.

The idea of a tree system of 5 divisions with 4 dropping from D1 each season sounds good, and will mix things up regularly. With that much movement between Divisions we will get to experience all the teams at wildly different TVs

It also has the advantage of letting someone jump in midway without facing built up rosters all the time (or start a new team if they get bored at the top).

I like it too. There would be less churn in D1 with the old system, it would be the same 6 teams in there, would take quite awhile to see any difference.

So, new plan for season 2. We're gonna go through with things as planned for the promotion/relegation top 2/bottom 2. Then I'm going to make division 3 into division 2b. Then make D4 into D3, and new D4 will be for noobs. Then we'll have 2a and 2b feed into d1, either by top 2 in each, or best 4 records total, we'll see what works best.

Don't even really need to change the names. Just need to decide where the bottom two divisions are feeding. Is 4 feeding into 2 and 5 into 3? Or do we want to mix it up so the same two teams aren't getting promoted to the same division? I'm only pushing to mix them up because otherwise if someone gets promoted, then demoted the next season...they'll always end up with the same people instead of the possibility of a fresh division.

So, here's my proposal:
Teams 5 and 8 in D1 relegate to D2. Teams 6 and 7 from D1 relegate to D3.
Teams 1 and 2 in D2 promote to D1. Teams 1 and 2 in D3 promote to D1.

Team 7 from D2 and Team 8 from D3 relegate to D4.
Team 7 from D3 and Team 8 from D2 relegate to D5.
Team 1 from D4 and Team 2 from D5 promote to D2.
Team 1 from D5 and Team 2 from D4 promote to D3.

If you all think that's too complicated, I understand, but I think this is the best way to keep things fair and fresh.

Seems to work out nicely and allows a good amount of movement in the leagues. I wonder if anyone will manage to stay in a division and never move :p
 
Not to point blame, but I've played a couple games with Restless and both of them hadmuchmore lag than the games I've played with anyone else. It might be a problem on his end, perhaps where he's located or something.
hey yeah im in London so it'll be that, i have 50mb line at the moment, but im due to go upto 100mb soon so hopefully that'll make a difference.

sorry guys!

I really need to win against makkon this next week (despite being down 2 GRs), or I'm probably going to get dropped into one of the lower divisions. Last 3 games for me have just been a total shitshow luck wise, with the last one being the most crippling in terms of long term damage. If I win against makkon (and don't suffer any serious injuries) I'll be in an OK position for taking on xannder in week 7. It'll also most likely keep me out of the bottom 2 in division 2.

Hey, so I leave next Saturday on vacation to Chicago/New York. I'll be backpacking through some hostels and will have minimal stuff with me (Including no laptop). I will def be able to play Match Day 6, provided we can play it Friday or Thursday night. Match Day 7 is probably a no go for me, ill have to forfeit, and Im back in town on the 16th, so might miss match Day 8 as well. Not really sure what I can do especially having no computer access.

Cutlery let me know my options but I assume I'll just have to forfeit the two games I cant make.

I wouldn't be surprised if Cutlery and Gav stay in D1 the whole time.
Meh. I've gotten very lucky this season. My match against McCheese I successfully regened a dead zombie and a -av mummy, if I had failed that mummy regen I not only would have been stuck with the injury, I would have only had 1 mummy for my match against Oblio which meant he could have pretty easily outmuscled me and would have had a pretty dramatic effect on the way that match played. My most recent game against Moontayle I successfully regened another dead result on a zombie, this time my +str guy. Losing him for my coming match against Cutlery would have been a pretty big punch in the dick.

I'm also not at all confident about my ability to beat you. Unless you get multiple levels in this weeks match (unlikely against dwarves), you'll almost certainly have a wizard against me, and wizards have been the absolutely fucking bane of my undead in open league, plus you're norse so block everywhere. I think we can count on Cutlery staying in D1, but my performance this season is about as far from typical as it gets.

Khalan - no match day 8, but I will be rebuilding the leagues that week, so before you leave I need to know your intents for whether you're sticking around for S2 and. if you plan on using the same team.

Edit - new plan, see next post

If you can get your stunty match done one before you leave, that'd be great too. Otherwise, with you missing potentially 3 weeks of stunty league, I may pull in the next app for that, and toss you back in the queue for S2 stunty, that's over half the season you'll be missing there.

Djay - I don't like rotating D5 up as it will still be the noob division for season 2, and winning that shouldn't get you immediately punched in the dick by some of the stronger D2/D3 teams. I've got another idea for shaking up the divisions that I'll get into when I get home.

Actually, Khalan if you can get your match with Moon done Wed or Thurs and you've got time left, you can play me after. I'll pull some shenanigans and drop us both to the open league, fill us in with placeholder teams to take our official winnings, and nothing should change. We'll both get appropriate SPP and winnings and play all our matches. I know id feel terrible if I won this league but had a concession to do it.

Bang out your match with moon asap and get in touch with me thurs or fri and we'll get this all done.

I am available all day today from probably about noon est onward. Exception is around ~3 when my kids get home, around ~6 for dinner, and ~7:30 for bed. About a half hour each time.
