Rosters locked for editing, everyone (or very close to it) on more than one squad removed from all the rosters. Feel free to tell me which one you actually want to be a part of.

And yes, you can still change your squad. But you cannot change your alias. The roster lock dates for existing players, new players and dissolve thingies shall be revealed a bit later.

GL HF, try to enjoy the season and the games with what is now a really fucked up playing field with all sorts of resizers and tanking etc.

I am also looking for a squad. Send me a msg in game. Thanks

Here it is, in all its glory. (hallu can you sticky icky icky this)
And here's the source, the one edit is a swap between R1 and 2 to not give The Dark 2 byes in a row.  http://tournamentscheduler.net/schedule/MjMxOTgxMDY4MQ

Round 9 will be on Dec 20th. Then we get to enjoy a nice long holiday break (Christfest and Actual-New-Years). Then we get to repeat the whole shebang and possibly skip superbowl (although it'd just be a regular season match). But why bannog, why double round robin? Because 8 actual games into playoffs is too short. That's why. For the second matches, you'll be playing on the time slot you originally did not play on.
Playoffs BO3, Need to decide on split.

Either: 4 pro, 5aml (3 byes) OR 6 pro (top 2 byes) + 3 aml (1 bye). Scenario 1 would probably result in more even playoff games BUT scenario 2 actually has squads playing for the real title, no matter their slim chances. Let me know what you think, I'll finalize the decision after round 1 or something.

P.S. Rosters will be "locked" for editing before round 1. As usual, you can still hop around but it goes through the forum or ?messages
P.P.S. I would really appreciate it if the ones of you on multiple rosters would be kind enough to remove yourselves. Or there will be drama. And exposed aliases. (I'm looking at you, Dacrath)
P.P.P.S. I'll get r1 on bots as soon as we get the season correct on the bot
P.P.P.P.S. elf is the #1 pre-season player

... what the title says.

3pm:

Pure vs. Symphony -- 1303665
StarFire Elite vs. Llamas -- 1303666

4pm:
Cosmic Rift vs. B.I.A. -- 1303667
Outlaws vs. Evil Geniuses -- 1303668

We'll kick off the season next weekend unless we run into technical issues, yay. I'll try to get the schedule done around Tuesday, probably. It's either 8 or 9 teams, sort of kind of depending on:

1) The squads at the moment clearing their double squadding players. Yes, it's legal in pre-season, but if they are integral to their squad it might die when they leave
2) Symphony? They showed up pre-season 1, had none two online last round.

It would pretty much suck to schedule for 9 and a BYE round, then end up with 2 bye rounds for what.. 16 weeks?

And I'd rather not point too many fingers, but not that many squads currently have aliased people on the roster so you can probably figure out which squad is the prime suspect here.

So those of you who are on multiple squads should probably pick one. Thanks.

So we're down to 9 (8) squads, Pure needs more rostered players to be allowed in, the minimum is still 8. Why? To combat no-shows. The season will be more or less interrupted by Christmas and possibly the Superbowelmovement if we play a double round robin, which sort of makes more sense*.



3pm:
BIA vs . Outlaws -- 1303446
Symphony vs. StarFire Elite -- 1303443

4pm:
Cosmic Rift vs. Llamas -- 1303444
Evil Geniuses vs. The Dark -- 1303447

EDIT: fixed dem games

*more games, basically. Rushing into the playoffs to crown more champs out every two months seems silly, also with 7 games they'd all matter a bit too much?

let me know if the quality of the video sucks. been fucking working on this for quite awhile. If it looks ok I will transcode and upload round 3.
