Given that a clan will only be making 45 home games and that there are over 150 maps available, plus considering some element of home advantage, no map can be chosen more than twice during the regular season and in addition, no repeats in your 9 home sets. Maps can be chosen for a 3rd time in the playoffs, but then not again.
To make it a little easier I'm quoting the rules in post 1. I wasn't aware of this. So I guess we need to think of a better plan for the final. Damn...

EMPIRE and AOC are underway today. Games have been exchanged (well, the maps a few days ago, games today) and are all being joined and started today.

yes as long as it doesnt fall twice in the same week i think..or what ever the other rules are etc
you can use any map maximum 3 times per regular season+ playoff. if you didnt use it in regular season at all, then you can use it once in every stage of playoff (quarters, semis, finals).

The fact that LoW, the Monkis, TOFU, and Kort aren't each in their own division, but are instead clustered in two divisions, is, as the kids are calling it these days, a travishamockery. If nothing else, Division A is a total farce, given that it contains both division winners (plus both clans are in the midst of CC semifinals), along with the criminally, perpetually under-ranked Legion, who could win the whole league and still be ranked #12 on the ladder by all indications. And I like the Bandits as much as the next guy, but valuing their league result over their lack of pretty much any other significant result (not to mention their current pasting at the hands of G1) just strikes me as misguided.
Good luck, everyone. Clearly you're in good hands here.
The 4 Season2 finalists are all in their own divisions, TOFU won a Division2 grouping, so they technically have not proven themselves as a league clan, although we all know what they did outside of the league. Plus if you look at the playoff structure, both teams in a Division can still make it to the Finals this year.
After all that talk of Division A being really really strong, neither clan made the semis as only Div C and Div D clans made the semis.

Good luck to you, Slaylark, and to all Agents of Chaos. Feel free to drink as much beer, wine or spirits as you like this 4th of July weekend. But watch out for friendly fire if you're all inebriated.
