I don't want to end up playing games that won't count for the league once it starts. Pick a game, go to the 100% Club tab for that game, in the fastest achiever section scroll down to 50th place, if 50th place is under 6 hours then the game does not count. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to end up playing games that won't count for the league once it starts. Basically, if you go to a Game page and check out the list of all who got 100%, if you check the column on the right, which is fastest achievers, if the 50th entry has it completed in less than 6 hours, the game does not count. If it is a newer game and does not yet have a 50th fast achiever, it counts. I really don’t know why cross-save is mentioned because most cross-save games are over 6 hours anyway (PUBG, Destiny, Fortnite, etc). I hope this helps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShogunCroCop Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 So if we get one more sign up, we can have 7 participants per league. Now that might cause a slight issue with scheduling, because 12 fixtures (facing everyone else in your league twice) might be too much. But as always, I want to give you all options, because I want the best experience for all of you. So here are some ideas I am proposing for scheduling: 1) We extend the season to 12 fixtures so everyone in a league can face each other twice. 2) We do 6 fixtures, facing off once, with 4 breaks in between, so it'd be the same length as 10 fixtures. 3) We do an unbalanced schedule, meaning 6 fixtures facing off once, and only facing 4 a second time. 4) We do 10 fixtures, 6 against the participants in your league once, and the other 4 against one member of the other 4 leagues, based on placement. So in other words, if after the first 6 fixtures, you're 4th in Plat League, your remaining 4 fixtures will be vs 4th place in Gold, Silver, Bronze, Manganese. 5) None of the above..different option..pose it in a reply.

How would number 4 work when it comes to CWC? Because it feels like this would shake things up a lot. I do like the sound of number 4, but i'm not 100% on how things would look.

If we have 35 players: 1) is the best option If we have 34 players we could split P:6 / G:6 / S:6 / B:6 and M:10 players Manganese League starts at Fixture 2 with everyone face each other once. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like the sound of number 4, but i'm not 100% on how things would look. CWC wouldn't change. But yes, this option could shake things up a lot. A team in first that was able to roll through their league might not be so lucky vs the other first placers. 1 hour ago, Redbeard-Rik said: I vote extend to 12 fixtures. We can do that. Just remember, it'll actually be 13 fixtures. If there are 7 in each league, because of the odd number, someone would always have a bye. That extra bye adds a 13th fixture. 46 minutes ago, microsamm said: If we have 35 players: 1) is the best option If we have 34 players we could split P:6 / G:6 / S:6 / B:6 and M:10 players Manganese League starts at Fixture 2 with everyone face each other once. I guess we could have 10 in Manganese. That option for 34 players (which we currently have), would work. Regardless of what we do, there will be some nuances in any option except option 1. So if we don't go with option 1, I just need to make sure everyone is ok with the nuances. Maybe for right now, we do microsamm's idea, since we are at 34 players. If we get to 35, we do option 1, and just add fixtures. Edited July 6, 2020 by ShogunCroCop 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BraveNoobWorld Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 (edited) I third @microsamm‘s idea. It makes sense to have manganese league be larger since it has mostly new players in it anyways. With that said, maybe an extra pro/rel slot should be made available to Manganese to avoid stagnation. I can imagine 2 promotion spots out of 10 being somewhat harsh. Idea 1: 2 regular spots and 1 conditional spot - whoever scored the most points per match (3rd place in Manganese vs. 4th in Bronze). Idea 2: Same as 1, but decided by a playoff run during the same window as the CWC. Could be as simple as Manganese3 vs Bronze4, or something more elaborate.

BraveNoobWorld Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 To argue against myself, how many retirements/purges are typical in a season? If 2-3 people are dropping or being cut every season, you can keep the status quo and 4-5 people would still be promoted from Manganese. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally think the current amount of promotion/relegation spots are fine as is with this in mind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShogunCroCop Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 (edited) Here is what we currently have for season 27: Platinum League Redbeard-Rik microsamm Psy-Tychist VASORAT13 Wavergray shadowhood1111 Gold League GTA_Darren stupid0089 theshywaterguy jemmie ShogunCroCop me3lingual Silver League OmegaFenron HCG Clawz Omar BraveNoobWorld Arctic Cress Boooda Bronze League Sptj7 Aprilis Lucas X18JELLO18X FallacyUnknown Wdjat Prinny Doods Manganese League freddie1989 kingofbattle8174 Flex_da_Brent Krazy_99 AmarisSkye Kent10201 AffectatiousDonk Tearraven ZachTheProdigy- Sylvie blu3st4rdust305 I am trying to stay respectful of the promotions and relegations. Since we have so many new people, my initial thought process is to tack the remaining 5 to the end of Manganese, and we just do 6,6,6,6,11. Plat - Silver play opponents twice for 10 fixtures, Manganese plays opponents once for 10 fixtures. So the leagues will be unbalanced a bit, but promotions and relegations will shake out evenly for next season.
