Warrior General Games

Thanks for anyone participating.

Bort acknowledged the results and looks like we are heading for a change this upcoming offseason.

boom lets gooooo

What were the results of the poll if you don't mind me asking?

Out of 17 people, 83% preferred a 24 team/2 Pro league format with the winners playing day 40 for a title.

5 people which selected Option B: 24/2 Pro league format provided following feedback
If Option B is the prefered one: Any suggestions to be considered? - number of playoff teams- promotions/demotions- conference alignments (Static/dynamic)- team placement rules (rules for multiple own teams) 5 responses tag teams owned by a network and put them in different leagues / conference-
Keep 12TM leagues. These people asking for 32 team leagues don't know what they are talking about.

-It's very important that the Pro teams are dynamic (randomize each season). 1 season toughest conference can't be a permanent pergatory. Rivalries will still exist just as much between the 24 Pro teams in 2 leagues, it is fine.-It would be a HUGE upgrade if we could ban team swaps within the same tier (no changes between leagues/conferences in Pro). RC is correct that new system incentivizes him and others to have 4 teams, one in each conference. By allowing conference swaps you give an advantage to networks with multiple teams not having to face each other in the early playoffs, and incentivizing having a team in every conference. Should be randomized then no changes. (only league swaps allowed are between tiers like AA to Pro).-I am still personally a big fan of 3 teams make the playoffs per conference (1 bye), 4th team stays in Pro, 5th/6th team demote. That's a pretty big change so I doubt you get the votes. But no reason this "new" system has to have 16 playoff teams total, as 12 teams would be sufficient. Having a bye week added and only 3 teams per conference make playoffs would make the regular season matter more.

As-is, people are going to coast to the playoffs as the #4 seed since seeding completely does not matter in any way, which is stupid. Doing this removes the incentive for top tier teams to gameplan AT ALL for regular season games by making it too easy to make the playoffs with zero incentive to be the #1 seed... Dynamic conferences, No Switches

I'll never win so I really don't care

The current concept version looks fine to me.

Thanks!

If the same concept shall be implemented for AAA and AA, their playoffs have to start 2 days earlier as well.

This gives people the chance to reach the highest level within 200 days. (Minors+AA season promotion)

Therefore, the two top leagues next season will then be built based on:
- The current 12 CL teams (congrats on non demoting)
- The 8 Pro playoff teams
- The 4 AAA promoters (AAA conf champs)

After next season, it will be an 8 team rotation between all leagues in promotion/demotion process

Sounds exciting. We can get some polls going again! Would be sweet to revive the Coaches' Poll.

So…. Only people who really gotta try the rest of this seasons playoffs is AAA teams?

Ehh, I guess being the “last” CL champ is worth trying for.

nice work man. IMO the more people at the top level the more activity we get, the better the game is.
