Yes, it will be this Sunday.

(but why Bannog, why? it's Thanksgiving on Thursday.) Yes. I know. We have 4 rounds in regular season to go. We have 4 weekends to go until the 28th, which will be off.
2015 will kick off with play-off games on the 4th.

EDIT:
This is the schedule
3pm:
BYE Round - Symphony -- 1293261
Starfire Elite - Sterling -- 1293262
Assassins - Cosmic Rift -- 1293263

4pm:
BYE Round - Critical Mass -- 1293264
Outlaws - Backarrow -- 1293265
Dropships - The Dark -- 1293266
BYE Round - Llamas -- 1293267

Is there a proxy already setup somwhere, incase last nights bad connection packetloss problems occurs again ?

So I've only been back for a couple months now and I have some observations.

First and most important.  I got put into a match and since I didn't know how fullsub works I ended up screwing up while subbing out.  Are people happy about this?  From what I understand fullsub has been an issue during multiple matches throughout the last few seasons and essentially people messing up.  The standard response is "you should know better" and I agree, but should it really be so complex?

Death subs should be fullsubs.  If a person subs out within 5 seconds of dying it should be treated as a deathsub and the incoming player gets full toys.  Deathsubs should be possible in OT with full toys, I'm not sure how the current rules treat them as subbing in OT is extremely rare.  

A fullsub should be the first non-deathsub.  

I know years go I argued that there should not be limits on when a fullsub can take place.  I think the allowed 30 minutes are stupid and also add complexity while taking away an element where a team could potentially use a fullsub in overtime.  I'm not sure why there was a limit put on when you can fullsub and again adds another complication to the game and being able to properly utilize the fullsub option.

Finally I have an additional comment regarding bot commands.  While it may seem like adding the feature to treat text like "rdy" and "ready" as commands without any pre-qualifiers as cool, it really isn't all that great.  It leads to statements like "pracstats are broken so don't use it" to register as a command to request pracstats.  All commands should be prefaced with either a "!" or a "."

We're up to three bye rounds now. WTF? and Slopships are gone. Dropships now housing 4 players from the folded Slopships.
At the end of the season any games vs. those two squads count as 12-0 wins for the other team (but I'm only going to even check it if K/D would make a difference, and for whoever wins regular season)

And we're still going to split 6 for PRO, rest for AML. Top 2 byes, best of threes, etc.

There are tons of bot plugins here, maybe you can put them on so we can finally have events...?

As you might have noticed, I have released new bot code to all 4v4 arenas. Fixes:

• FullSub Crash: Fixed.
• Actions after dying out (e.g. the Ozn Ban situation): To prevent anyone from affecting the game after they have died their third time, the player is now immediately spec'd upon the death. This will prevent a situation like the Ozn Ban situation from every occurring again.
• Sendto: The !sendto command is updated for the new zone IP (finally!)
• Spam: Fixed an apparently long standing bug in !spam (yes in !spam!)
• Fixed a bug that could crash the bot with some types of games
• Fixed a bug in .pracstats cmd (again, apparently long standing)
  

It's been dead for quite a while, why not change map and spice things up a little bit?

3pm:

BYE Round - Outlaws -- 1292595
BYE Round - Assassins -- 1292596
Slopships - Backarrow -- 1292597
Critical Mass - The Dark -- 1292598

Symphony - Starfire Elite -- 1292601

WTF? announced they'd be dissolving. If your squad has room, you can roster their players up to... round 10?

Sleuths and people not prone to headaches welcome:

In Season 11 of Pro League (Premier League 3 Pro Div) the competing teams were Assassins, Bad, B.I.A., The Dark, Devil, Interloper, Intrepid, Prevail, Quality Control, RaDaR, Sterling, Typhoon and Unhallowed.

From the regular season, the standings when recreated seem to show the following: BIA, Intrepid, Interloper, Assassins, RaDaR, Sterling, Unhallowed, Quality Control, Devil, Typhoon, The Dark, Prevail, Bad.
I say "seem" because one match result was missing (neither team would have featured in play-offs), and I am uncertain how no-shows were scored at the time.

So a play-offs series - one would think - would feature the top 4 or 6 teams. A top 8 seems a lot of teams for a 13-team competition.

Round 1 of play-offs saw:
- Unhallowed 12 def Assassins 3
- Interloper 12 def RaDaR 3
- Sterling 12 def ??? 4 (the Sterling win was reported by speccers joining the log for Interloper/RaDaR)
These teams were the teams placed 3rd thru 7th, and 1st. 2nd and 3rd were not mentioned but 1st & 2nd did later play in the Final.

The season concluded with an Intrepid championship. BIA were runners-up. 

I am at a loss to understand how these play-off matchups worked - maybe it was a final 8 and Sterling's win was over QC? Maybe it was a Top 7 with Sterling defeating Intrepid - but if so, then how did Intrepid make the final if it was single-elim.

The first round of play-offs was indeed referred to as "Round 1", not as "Quarter-Finals", so maybe it was an extended series with double-elim structure.  The season prior, though was a Top 6 from 12 teams. The one prior was a 7-team playoff series from a league of 16.


That first round was played the weekend of October 27, 2002.

Yeah. I know this might seem like a pointless exercise to most, but I'm keen to understand it. So if anyone remembers how it played out, or has records of it ... or if they can visualise the play-offs structure that was being applied, I'd be keen to know.

You could ask me why I want to know, but I doubt you'd have time for the answer

Edit: Teams shown in play-offs were those placed 1st through 7th (1st and 2nd played in the final, 3rd thru 7th played in the first round of play-offs)

In AML Season 08 (equates to Pro 12, commenced late 2002), the following players were each rostered with one or the other of the teams listed beside them ... but I can't work out which.

Any assistance greatly appreciated.
