Thanks Arctos, it's an odd one.
as per the news archive files in Underlord's SubRealm site file repository he posted in another thread:
( filename Pro > Archives > arch23524.html )
Requiem's website state dates of matches from July to September 1998, and express regret that they didn't capture play-offs information. (the webmaster was Damien).
Not that this was the time of VIE's implosion, over in VIE Pro competition play was repeatedly suspended from November 1998 through February 1999 as competitions scrambled for server hosting and any solid ground to get a foothold.
What's odd is that BALLISTICS website summarise matches in a season from May to August 1998 (including a match v Three Crowns, and no clash with Requiem), and speak of a new season starting in October. Then in that following season: "December 6, 1998. Score: BALLISTICS 3, MiS 12. Last season's champions prove to be another tough match ..."
If Requiem had hopped in to the last half of Season 1, winning all their games but being too late to gather enough wins to contest play-offs, this would all make sense. But nobody thinks they did.
