Ok, so at best the next TWL is a month away. Phooey.
So, here's an idea.
Some of you have probably played Warzone in TW before. Some of you may have played in the Warzone zone or even league. And I think a short warzone league would be cool to spend a few of the weeks until TWL begins.
Scope :
The league would be composed of 9 teams. Any squad can apply, but the from the squads who apply the 9 squads with the highest ranking in TWBD would be chosen. The league would last for 5 weeks, if possible starting the weekend after next.
Match Format :
Each game would be composed of 3 teams. Standard TW WZ arena with 8 flags. Each team would have 12 players in game (this could change depending on feedback). Each match would last 20 or 30 minutes. Once time is up each team would get a point for each flag in their possession. The match would not end if a team had all 8 flags, but when time is up. In the event of a tie during the team with the lowest amount of flags would be kicked out, the game reset and a 10 minute overtime would take place.
League Format :
1 group of 9 teams. During the regular season every team would get to face every other team at least once. The 3 highest ranked squads would then go on to the final. Teams would be ranked by the amount of flags they have at the end of their games. In case of a tie the following tie breakers would decide who is ranked above who :
1 . Match Points :
- 5 points for an outright win (More flags than any other team)
- 4 points for a shared win (2 teams have the same amount of flags, but more flags than the third team)
- 3 points for second place (in the event that all teams have a different amount of flags)
- 2 points for a shared "loss" (2 teams have the same amount of flags, bgut less than the first team)
- 1 point for third place.
- 0 points for not showing.
2 . TWBD Ranking :
- Open to other suggestions, but a snapshot of the TWBD rankings would be taken before the league starts. In the event of an unbreakable tie between two teams this will be used to seperate them.
3 . TWBD match :
- In the unlikely event the two tied teams also have the same amount of points in TWBD a TWBD match would be required. Highly unlikely scenario.
League Schedule :
Week 1 -
1 v 2 v 3
4 v 5 v 6
7 v 8 v 9
Week 2 -
1 v 4 v 7
2 v 5 v 8
3 v 6 v 9
Week 3 -
1 v 5 v 9
2 v 6 v 7
3 v 4 v 8
Week 4 -
1 v 6 v 8
2 v 4 v 9
3 v 5 v 7
Final -
Top 3 teams against each other.
Refs :
Refs would prefarably be taken from each team in the league. Each match would be reffed by a member of staff from a team in the league, who are not playing in the match. If this is not possible another staff would be chosen.
Who would run it :
If you, the TW Public approve of the idea, if enough squads sign up, and if TW Staff approve of the idea the event would be run by someone approved by TW Staff. With their consent I would put up a small site with standings and such.
---------------------------------------
So there you have it. It's a quickly written up idea. Sure there are flaws in it and I'm not even sure if it's technicly possible at the present time. However if you all think it's a good idea, and if staff do too, we'll see if it can happen
Feel free to criticise or comment. Please slag each other off in other threads.
