i think i've seen this cycle at least 10 times with Lee. he is very enthusiastic to host and start a new league with his own convoluted complicated idea, gets everyone hyped then completely drops it randomly and dumps it on someone else's lap i remember posting about this a while back so i did some...

2 updates really:
my family situation has made it more or less impossible for me to play eg at the moment, so it also makes it impossible to host anything properly.
also, there seems to be really 0 interest in the zone from players, shame, was a good run, cu around.

So who GMd? Had only 1 game?
My personal life and changes seem to have made me unavailable again at those hours.

will this new format work with 4 teams? i Agreed to GM the last format because it was meant to kick off in December and end by mid February? this suited my time schedule and i was in the country but with this already being so delayed it will most likely clash with my schedule now. I plan on being i...

whens draft?

no draft, just show up on Sunday

Lets take it step by step. We will have first round this weekend. Depends on how many people show, we will know steps forward. If some GMs will not appear, we can just have regular pickup with voting, to test arena + game settings: 14.01 - PRESEASON WEEK 1 - 3pm est - eel vs monty 4pm est - beasted ...

We will start by testing gamesettings this weekend with a few pickups. Next weekend will follow with scheduled matches and season will start after that. Unless during next 2 weeks 2 more acceptable GMs appear we will unfortunately have to have only 4, which is ridiculous for solo league, but what ca...

Its not about being optimistic, its about why anyone would do that? You totally screw your chances of making it to playoffs in a solo league, if u do not use your main alias. if people miss a few weeks they behind on points anyway, what stops them? and if u already played two games on a sunday, u c...

Sure, for 1 game. Next game everyone will want to pick him if he uses same alias. Also your theory suggests this 9vp player does not care at all about making it to playoffs, which makes no sense in solo league. okok, so u are trying to be optimistic now and hope it wont happen...... btw: Only rule ...

Dear all! Due to very low interest in draft flagging league, we have decided to put the concept on hold and instead proceed with another idea. Here is the league structure explained: GENERAL STRUCTURE: * League will have 6 GMs, each of them able to pick co-captain, who GM trusts and who can represen...

Hey! People have been asking me for my plan B incase signups fail and well I think we are close to that stage, too much time has passed. My proposal is following, as I have not had time to discuss this, any feedback is welcome: We will skip the traditional squads and draft and focus on games themse...

Eel - Lee - You guys should consider throwing a 4 team battle royal ( 6's ) match in an EGDL arena one of these Sunday's just to test the idea out - it'd be a good idea to see how it goes

If u look at calendar, sundays are pretty much no go this year

Psychosocial subspace continuum user name-can sign this up, not clear when the league egfl starts though.

After holidays

Hey!

We managed to send out email blast, so lets see if any old players would like to play.

you guys do realize we have more or less players for 2 squads at the moment? This year and horrible leagues have really killed off peoples final interest in this game, it is amazing to think we had 8 teams just spring competing with over 100 players involved, now we dont even have 30 players. Anyway...

am I missing something, or will it be way more easier tow in some bd during the week and get away with more points then u get from winning ur weekend matches under 30mins?! bd > flagging? Weekly bd points and extra points for playing with more players are for tiebreakers. Main table will have only ...

Maybe we should consider 6 squads, 6vs6, same settings as lee is requesting with a total of 84 signups that would get each team 14 per roster. We would only be looking at 56 more signups. 6vs6 needs different setup, also we don't have nearly enough for that league as well. I would rather play 8v8 w...

We will definitely not have draft this weekend. Havent been able to send out mass emails and signups have been slow. We will continue preparing for league and hopefully get pickups ready with arena and new settings soon, but draft will most probably take place after holidays.

signing up jammu (messaged me)

seems like i havent signed up
Lee

I haven't really started promoting the league yet. Over next week I hope we can send email blast (rek is working on it) and I will spam every active player in SS. If that does not work then I will go for plan B

That is my main concern. Since this is a timed league, I feel like the bases should be a bit shorter than typical EGFL bases. Not like drastically shorter but somewhat like one or two tunnels shorter? Also can we make sure there isn't one base that is superior to the rest like the last couple leagu...

Hi Lee, Thanks a lot for this appreciate you taking the time to organise this for us! my only concern so far is the fact that the game potentially could be decided right at the beginning, by whom ever collects the most flags and maintains them for 60 mins. if your team happens to get more flags the...

Obviously this is a rare thing but what if teams are tied after an hour because of a neut?

Good point, will think about it, although it should pretty rare, but could happen.

thanks for your time lee, but i think this idea has 1 big issue. and its the fact that whatever teams ends up with most flags at start would just have to full d to win the match and that is very easy and gay Pretty sure Lee forgot to mention in his post playing requirements where you have to play "...
