ShogunCroCop Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Thanks @Psy-Tychist for posting. I also fell asleep last night. This has been a crazy week. Congratulations to all the competitiors, and especially @blu3st4rdust305 on his win! Enjoy the holidays. Season 30 commences early January. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blu3st4rdust305 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 That was a slog. When I finally cleared my first platinum, took a peak at 7 platinums popped by @GTA_Darren within about the first four hours. That was a tough final round! Good going! Pushed pretty hard this season and CWC. Had the free time, what with the not having anywhere to go during the holidays. (yay...?) Next season may be closer to fighting against relegation. Thanks for the vote of confidence, @Jello. Also, thanks to @ShogunCroCop and @Psy-Tychist for helping keep the lights on this season. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't expect you are going to plat both Broken Age & Deliver Us The Moon in 10 hours. That's pretty impressive. Congratulate on the win. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was more @Psy-Tychist that kept the lights on during the CWC. I tested positive for Covid so I kinda disappeared there for a bit. I am fine now, and ready to blaze through Season 30 in January! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds good. Welcome back. Also, Season 30 will begin on January 8. As the week goes by, I’ll compile who is in what league, and go through fixtures, etc. There is also something that was suggested to me that I’ll want to run by everyone. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ShogunCroCop Posted January 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 4, 2021 @Lucas, would you be so kind as to change the title from Season 29 underway to Season 30 Sign ups? Here is the participant list, so far, for Season 30: Platinum League @GTA_Darren @Wavergray @Arctic Cress @blu3st4rdust305 @Psy-Tychist @Jello @ApriIis Gold League @microsamm @ShogunCroCop @HcG Clawz @AffectatiousDonk @Krazy_99 @FallacyUnknown @Lucas Silver League @theshywaterguy @Boooda @Flex_Da_Brent @AmarisSkye @Ichiban-Hybrid @dawnofthedead34 @odie8391 Bronze League @stupid0089 @me3lingual @TheScruffyton @Zach @freddie1989 @Sptj7 @OmegaFenron I had to honor some relegations and not others based on the retirements, and the current removal of Manganese League. Right now we can have an even number per league, but if more sign up (which I hope), this will need to be reworked. Some of the newcomers/returning players, I put in certain leagues based on their previous performances. There was not enough room for odie in Bronze, so he'll start in Silver. A cool twist has been suggested to me for Season 30, which I will detail more of in the coming hours, once the details are worked out. So stay tuned! The season starts Friday! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ShogunCroCop Posted January 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 5, 2021 (edited) Now, to tell you about what was suggested to me... Here is the idea as it was proposed to me: instead of doing league tables, doing a tournament style since it's Season 30. I like the idea. The only issue I have with it is doing a tournament will remove half the field after 5 days, and they'll be waiting for the tournament to end, instead of being able to engage all season long like we have with the tables format. But I do like the idea of a tournament, however, I modified it. If you think like soccer, they do their cup tournaments while they play their season games. So I tweaked the initial idea is to do something like that. We do Fixtures 1 and 2, then Tournament Round 1, then Fixtures 3 and 4, then Tournament Round 2, etc. Or we can have the entire tournament play out after Fixture 5 and before Fixture 6. The idea would be that since there is no Manganese League, the tourney winner automatically gets a spot in CWC, regardless of whether or not they win their league. As far as how the tournament is designed, initial placements will depend on standings in the league tables. After that, random draw so that you don't know who you are getting each round. Of course, there is the option of not doing this at all. I like it, but I don't want to abandon the idea of league tables. Adding an in-season tournament will extend the season by two weeks, give or take. As of now, this is a one time idea. If implemented, and if popular, I'll consider it for future seasons. Right now, since 30 is a bit of a milestone, we wanted to see if we could do something special for it. Y'all please give me feedback on this idea. We are mere days away from the start of Season 30! And as a side note, @Lucas, we did not have enough for Manganese League, so your placement was determined based on past performances. We had a lot more retirements than returns, and I wanted to try my best to honor the promotions/relegations, so I couldn't just place all of you in Bronze.

ApriIis Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 @ShogunCroCop I'm not against it, I like the idea of adding some novelty in, definitely would prefer the tournament mid season if it does get incorporated in though. Also, am I right in saying that the tournament is its own thing and has no implication on the league standings itself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flex_Da_Brent Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 @ShogunCroCop Seems like a really cool idea to me! Just one question that came to mind, If the winner of the tournament also ends up winning his league will he be rewarded with an extra life for the CWC then? Or will the ticket go to the other finalist of the tournament in that case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An extra life sounds like it could work. I'll see about working out the specifics of that and get you an answer before the start of Season 30. 2 hours ago, ApriIis said: @ShogunCroCop I'm not against it, I like the idea of adding some novelty in, definitely would prefer the tournament mid season if it does get incorporated in though. Also, am I right in saying that the tournament is its own thing and has no implication on the league standings itself? Correct. It is its own thing separate from the league standings. If you lose in any round of the tournament, you will not drop in the league standings. I am only using the standings to determine placement in the tourney. For instance, the best out of all 4 leagues would be 1, the worst would be 28 (since we have 28 right now), if that helps.

microsamm Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 I worked on a schedule and here is my suggestion: Fixture 1 [1st Round] Fixture 2 Fixture 3 [Top 16 Round] Fixture 4 Fixture 5 [Quarterfinal] Fixture 6 [Semi-Final] Fixture 7 [Final] Fixture 8 Fixture 9 Fixture 10 This way you have enough time to calculate the round winners of the tournament matches and don't interrupt the final fixtures of the league at the end of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ShogunCroCop Posted January 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 7, 2021 Here is the revised participant list for Season 30: Platinum League @GTA_Darren @Wavergray @Arctic Cress @blu3st4rdust305 @Psy-Tychist @Jello Gold League @microsamm @ShogunCroCop @HcG Clawz @AffectatiousDonk @Krazy_99 @FallacyUnknown Silver League @theshywaterguy @Boooda @Flex_Da_Brent @AmarisSkye @Ichiban-Hybrid @dawnofthedead34 Bronze League @stupid0089 @Sptj7 @TheScruffyton @Zach @freddie1989 Manganese League @ApriIis @Lucas @me3lingual @OmegaFenron @odie8391 I changed some things around. Due to wanting to incorporate an in-season tournament, having 7 players per league would have made the season entirely too long, as there would have been 14 fixtures, plus the tournament. Shuffling things to include a Manganese League, with the 2 Bronze relegations and the 3 newcomers, will change what happens in the CWC. All 5 leagues will still participate, but so will the tournament winner. If the tournament winner is a league winner, they'll get an extra life in the CWC. With the new tweaks, there will be the regular size of 10 fixtures. Since there are 5 in Bronze, and 5 in Manganese, that means they will face each other twice, for 8 matches, and have two byes each. The fixture will remain 4 days long. Each tournament round will be 3 days long. There will be a one day break for everyone between Fixture 2 and the start of the tournament for my admins and I to set the field for the tournament. Because there are 28 players across the entire league, the top 4 players will have an automatic bye to Round 2 while the other 24 slug it out. The 12 winners then advance to meet the 4 byes in Round 2, for an even 16. So, if you do not have a tournament matchup, or are eliminated at some point, any days designated for the tournament are just simple breaks that will allow eliminated players to prep for their next fixtures. If this is confusing, or if there are questions, let me know. Please note this is just for this season. Season 31 will go back to normal, unless this tournament idea turns out to work smoothly and be wildly popular. Here is the schedule list for Season 30: Fixture 1: Jan 8 - 11 Fixture 2: Jan 12 - 15 Tournament Round 1: Jan 17 - 19 Fixture 3: Jan 20 - 23 Fixture 4: Jan 24 - 27 Tournament Round 2: Jan 28 - 30 Fixture 5: Jan 31 - Feb 3 Fixture 6: Feb 4 - 7 Tournament Quarterfinals: Feb 8 - 10 Fixture 7: Feb 11 - 14 Fixture 8: Feb 15 -1 8 Tournament Semifinals: Feb 19 - 21 Fixture 9: Feb 22 - 25 Tournament Finals: Feb 26 - 28 Fixture 10: Mar 1 - 4 CWC: Mar 6 - 9 Matchups for Fixture 1 will be out tomorrow. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait I thought tournament rounds would happened at the same time as fixtures, not as breaks in the fixtures. Like tournament round 1 would be during fixtures 1 and 2, round 2 would be during fixtures 3 and 4, and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just thought it would be confusing for all of us to keep track of trying to beat our fixture opponent while at the same time trying to beat our tournament opponent.
