S34 Start, R1 Schedule -- info on rules

[Caerbannog]

<div>
<div>Season 34 is here. The squads:</div>
<div>Alpha Reunion</div>
<div>Assassins</div>
<div>Backarrow</div>
<div>FTNguyen</div>
<div>Intrinsic</div>
<div>Llamas</div>
<div>Port Llast</div>
<div>StarFire Elite</div>
<div>The Dark</div>
<div> </div>
<div>So 9 squads in total, plus of course, BYE Round. Below is a copypaste from what the council voted on, the league will be a single round robin and then whatever is stated below. I would tell you when the rosterlock will happen, but it's not set in stone yet. Should probably get a vote on that. Rosters WILL however be locked before Sunday.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Regular Season starts Oct 20th. Thanksgiving weekend (Dec 1) will have no games.  Season will end on the Dec 8th (if 7 or 8 squads) or Dec 15th (if 9 or 10 squads).</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Pro Playoffs:</div>
<div>-- All matchups are best of 3.  Format is single elimination (aka knockout)</div>
<div>-- Top 2 squads (#1 and #2) get a bye to Round 2.</div>
<div>-- Round 1: Next 4 squads play in Pro Playoffs round 1: #3 v #6 and #4 v #5</div>
<div>---- Losers go to AML playoff bracket</div>
<div>---- Winners go to Pro Playoffs Round 2</div>
<div>-- Round 2: #1 picks their opponent for Round 2; #2 plays the other winner.</div>
<div>---- Winners play in Round 3 (finals)</div>
<div>---- Losers play for 3rd place</div>
<div>-- Round 3/Finals: Winners from Round 2 play</div>
<div> </div>
<div>-- All squads not in the top 6 go to AML playoffs.</div>
<div>-- Losers of round 1 of Pro playoffs go to AML playoffs and get a bye in Round 1.  </div>
<div>-- Exact format of AML playoffs will be determined at that time based on number of squads, but playoff rounds will be best of 3, and be single elim.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>-- All Playoffs start on Jan 5.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>And finally, the schedule. NOTE: I set this round up, I'll look up a 10 team round robin schedule later and assign numbers to the squads, then fill out the rest.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>3pm:</div>
<div>Port Llast vs. Intrinsic -- 121502</div>
<div>Alpha Reunion vs. BYE Round -- 121503</div>
<div>The Dark vs. Llamas -- 121504</div>
<div> </div>
<div>4pm:</div>
<div>StarFire Elite vs. Backarrow -- 121505</div>
<div>FTNguyen vs. Assassins -- 121506</div>
</div>
 

Good luck to all squads, and may the levels of drama remain low

<span style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;">Thanks to Caer and the Council for all the hard work!</span>

 

So rosterlock is before this Sunday? And rosters need to be finalized before then?

If there are unrostered skericks around who wanna scramble together a prac v AR ... us having the BYE and all, the BYE are not likely to show.

Caer means that the rosters are locked so players can't just randomly change names if they do bad or want to change their name or move from squad to squad, but if you are adding new people you have to go through a mod so they can add them for you.  If that makes sense.
