I think for a successful season next year and the continuation of our beloved TWL season we need to be a little more strict on the amount of squads allowed throughout the regular season. Here are some ideas of what I'd like to see done, also would enjoy the input of others.
1. Limit only 6 squads at the start of the season. The ladder reset, with intention of hopefully expanding to 7-8 squads throughout the season.
2. Increase the roster cap and allow more assistants on the squad, or just remove Players altogether.
3. If a player desires to make a squad, have him create a thread and have people either A) vote on the creation of the squad and if it would benefit league as to not damage the activity of the other squads who'll be losing players or B) have people respond and commit to the squad via the forums, or through staff, and once the squad hits enough dedicated players (10 actives/5 non-actives = 15 total) it can be created with a one week mercy rule (squad needs to hit a quota for games played through the week to sustain a good enough level of activity to be considered worthy of sticking around throughout the season.) If activity shows signs of falling, then that squad is to dissolve right away, or a squad with less activity????
4. Allow DS'ing for the soul purpose of keeping basing alive...it's dead.
5. PLEASE BRING BACK ?GO TOURNY OR FORCE A 2V2 TWEL! I'll donate money for the prize.
Just a few ideas I'd like to see and get the conversations going. Game isn't dead until it's dead, there's life left, so let's get the ideas flowing of ways we can increase activity, first way in my opinion is to limit squads being made.
