Many of the pro league players and AM league players grew up in DZ Arizona. I have read many of them express their wish of having DZ Arizona back.

 

In my opinion, DZ made a player a better player. There were no specials so you had to learn to aim and use power management.

 

When DZ was brought back for that week a few months ago it was nicely populated and the players seemed to be happy having it back. I know some Chaos players complained but, in my opinion, they complain because they are not willing to learn a different skill set. They need the specials in order to help them kill. DZ players never did need them.

 

I am sorry to bring up specific players but I won't play in Chaos because of players like Axe Demento. He non stop talks crap to people but he will never fight you. He does nothing but run and mine. Most of the league players will not play in Pub because of Axe, they all have commented on how very strange he is.

 

Chaos was always a zone even when DZ Arizona was a zone so why can't we bring DZ Arizona back and let the league players have a place to practice in a public setting and also a place to just have fun.

I had scheduled only one game, as I intended, that we played on bigger map (regular league map, like ?go 4v4h), than we did as we used ?go events. Game lasted shorter time (around 20 minute) as I had I thought it would be over 45 minutes.


It was good actually that we had time to do more rounds, and games didn't last over 20 mins once. Players who died out at beginning had the chance of entering another game in a reasonable amount of time. I had time to learn and I think elimination is ready to be played again now without confusion. We decided to play three games of elimination. Last two games went smoothly, and we even had the chance to *Shipreset in those last two games. (Unfortunately Jae lost his brick because of that ).

Conclusion from preseason round/


We had a bad showdown for 4pm, therefore we delayed the start for 10 minutes. Games were played at ?go events, but we had to tweak starting bty before go and players couln't enter (max 2 players was set?). Eventually we managed to start 30 minutes late. We played three rounds of Elimination, with good amount of players each round, i'll update stats later.


First round was quite messy, because the bot spammed some weird stuff and caused confuse to players, which was my bad totally, sorry for it. Pryde I think was outside of the playing area (start spawned him outside of map, where he stayed over 5 minutes of play. For that happen ever again, a mod will warp you to the playing field. Outside warps didn't occur for 2nd and 3rd games.). Ship settings should be fine now, expect for the shark, which has 0 reps, but 3 thors?, which has to get fixed for next round. (atleast Pempu played shark and therefore didn't had reps). There were also players in with wrong ships, because 2nd round started so quick. You can shipchange by priv msg'ing to mod+, but do it before game starts.

Screw match recaps.

Gods no-showed twice in a row, which Three pointed out too. Although the rule about 2 no-shows in a row was written for a season with less than 22 regular rounds, I think it's ok to enforce it here. Especially when it's been going on with Alpha Reunion too.

Now then, we get to the other issues related to this. Grace period for Gods' players to move? Gods to be allowed back in randomly if they can show under the "anything is better than a BYE" clause? If they need a few more players to show.. where do they get them from? No one is allowed to move, at least in theory.

Gods and AR were about to merge at some point. I cannot enforce this, plus it'd be quite the trickshot past the rules. Also it would still leave us with a BYE Round. We'll just have to see

I'll probably get back to this topic later.



Schedule for Round 16:
3pm:

Llamas vs. Nuke -- 116293

Sterling vs. Unhallowed -- 116294

Requiem vs. ReDS -- 116295

4pm:

Alpha Reunion vs. StarFire Elite -- 116296

Assassins vs. BYE Round -- 116297

FTNguyen vs. Rebels -- 116298

4.0.5. -- Number of players, no-shows

The minimum number of players required to start a game is 2. A squad will be kicked from league if they no-show two weekends in a row, or a total of 4 times during the season. All no-shows count as 0-12, same as BYE rounds.

Will a new squad be made to take their place?

 

 

I've been bothering Caer about this for weeks, and as the league manager I consider his actions to be somewhat questionable.


This week is sort of an opportune moment to complain on the forum as a lot of squads had to play with less than 4. My squad, Alpha Reunion has been struggling with this problem for more than a month, mostly having 1 or 2 other pilots aside from me show to the matches. Having told Caer about this trend in week 11, I requested an exception should be made to the roster lock and players on AR should be allowed to change squads. He said no, because the official rules required 2 no-shows. I cited 2 consecutive matches which should've be enough to satisfy the official rule:


Week 9: April 28th AR vs Requiem - AR showed 2 (Weasal and Badlamb)

Week 10: May 5th AR vs Assassins - AR showed 1 (Mighty Sven)

 

He refused. Now, It's clear to me that AR's activity will stagnate or decline, but despite this Caer has remained stubborn and held to his decision to refuse any players on AR from changing squads.

 

Please weigh in on this issue so it can be resolved. Personally, it's not fun to play on an inactive squad and I think it would benefit the league if some of the pilots on squads with less activity could be consolidated to active squads.


Thanks,

Weasal
