Warrior General Games

Because the leagues have been condensed, and there are only 3 rounds of playoffs, we technically only need a 38 day season to get everything done now. However, all of the build models that have been developed, and GLB's XP and VP tiers are designed around a 40 day season.

What is GLB's plan to address this?

If consideration has not yet been made, I believe that there are several options to explore here:

Option 1
Play championship games on days 37 and 38, teams can scrim on days 39 and 40 while developing players earn those last couple of days worth of daily XP. Off season goes through day 48 as usual.

Option 2
The first two rounds of the playoffs occur as they always have on days 33-36, days 37 and 38 are idle, and championship games are played on days 39 and 40. This is similar to a different football league that adds an extra week before its biggest game, so that the teams have some extra preparation time. Off season goes through day 48 as usual.

Option 3
End the season on day 38, and simply give two days worth of daily XP to developing players. Off season goes through day 48 as usual.

Option 2 is perfect IMO!

hm I thought we'll have two extra days to prepare for the playoffs (33-34) and playoff games start D35

bort already said that they would play the final tourney game during that time

Yep - that is what Bort said

Tourney finals days 33-34

I was planning on just having a bye week at the end of the season before playoffs start during which all the tournaments would have their final game. I could reset free scrim points at that point too, I suppose, if people would actually use them. I guess more teams will be involved in the playoffs now, so it'd maybe be more useful to more people?

Alternatively, we could have a bye week on like week 8 or something so people could scrim or grab a breather at the halfway point.

Extending the season to start on day 3 would just make the already long pre-season period even longer...nah.

would be nice to know before the playoffs start...

That part actually going to happen?

maybe an announcement would have been better than a general discussion post to let everyone know.

I like how we're pretending that any of this was crystal clear.

Don't get me wrong, I knew what the answer was, and most of you did too.

But this is a *fundamental* of the game. You can't half-ass that kind of thing and convince those of us who are watching that you really cared.
