Might as well get my entry in early, Stalingrad. Let the car crash begin! I'm glad to see you kept the format almost identical to THE Super League but still managed to f*ck it up:

One of your Tie-Breakers is totally redundant. If someone has equal points, equal 4-0 and 3-1 wins then they will ALWAYS have an equal number of 'The Dessies'. There are other errors too, 1 huge one which will see this one fail.

GOOD LUCK!

Craig, you’ve put a lot of time into running leagues and tournaments, and I know the community benefits / benefitted from your efforts. But sometimes when discussions get heated, your negative frustated tone can discourage new players or annoy old a lot. If your posts were framed more positively, I think they’d have more impact.
Mostly whenever you called someone a ‘clown,’ a "wanker' or a 'tosser' again it distracted from your main point. I think your ideas come across a lot stronger when they’re put solely more constructively and focus on the positive (without the chronic complaining or visible, strong negative & sarcastic undertone that is almost always present).

We all want the tournaments to run smoothly and attract new players. A positive tone from you, as the former organizer, really sets the culture for the rest of us. We’re all trying (or should all try) to keep this community fun and welcoming, so it would be great if we could keep the focus on solutions and the enjoyment of the game.

Why don't you just give good advice if you think you have it? Especially on that "big error" in your opinion "which will see this one fail". No need for negative comments like "let the car crash begin" right?

He still can't read for shit either as Stalingrad is a banned map.

They are using THE Super League Stats and there, Stalingrad is under 12 Rounds Average now.

So, it looks like there will be no updates to the BANNED MAPS from now on as they can't actually calculate the ongoing Averages.

So, If you cannot update the Averages, I am happy to change my HOME MAP to Arms Race!

Thank you, you're quite right on dessies so have removed that.

Can you let me know the other errors you see, that will help. Thanks in advance

One thing I can say having gone through this is what a great job you and your team have done - I am quite sure a lot of people don't realise how much effort has gone on behind the scenes.

It is a big compliment that I am keeping most things the same because I can see the thought behind it.

Nah M8, I do f*ck all for CC now. Just here until Premium expires.

Although it's great CC have got round to attempting to cobble something together. It really should have started as the last one ended as I reckon about 80 Premiums have left? I checked 3 Leagues end of August and from the players that had zero games active. It Pro-Rata'd to about 80 which is a lot more than I was expecting at that stage.

But, Good Luck with it, and I mean that.

We do have all of the data from SBSL25 but as you say there will be lots of gaps with people leaving not expecting another league and I think your numbers will be right.

Anyway if you want to share any errors you see, or have advice, will be appreciated, drop me a PM if you want to but I did want to make sure I sent out a recognition of the work and thought process put in by you and your team.

Great job

Just a suggestion

Move up the time frame. Close it sept 23rd and start it Oct 1.

Maybe also send out a mass email to all registered users

Where can we see which games can be selected as our home maps? Link, please.

The OP. Anything but a banned map or random

Random is a valid home map, we just won't let it pick banned maps

Egypt Nubia

Thats a shame. It realy is quite a low % chance to get a "banned" map and i remembered if that happened on a rare occasion i liked the variety

chipv wrote:Random is a valid home map, we just won't let it pick banned maps

you can pick what maps the random will allow?

I like when random sometimes finds those rare/banned maps, plus it gives those maps a shot to lower their average
