Too many 4vs5s

[Randedl]

There is no point in showing up and playing these games, they are a waste of everybody's time.

Next season i think it would be a good idea to add 3vs5 and 4vs5 games to the no-show definition.

let the games be played, but if a squad only shows 4 twice, kick them out of twl. it should not be hard to show 4 out of 30 people to a scheduled game, especially when you have a say in the scheduling.

Further:
5.01 All registered Trench Wars League Squads may only have a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 35 registered members.

Please enforce the rules, don't let the last week of twl, including any applicable playoff races, be ruined.

I think this would be a very smart addition.
When me and my friends found this game we formed our own squad, and for the most part we play in public arenas, and haven't entered leagues because we know we don't have enough, especially for the basing league that we like. If you can't show the people, why ruin it for fuckin everybody else? Heh, one of my friends that I personally brought to this game, wanted in leagues so badly that he decided that it was best if he went on to join an already established squad, and he's now on BasingCrew, because we couldn't enter leagues this season. Don't fuck shit up for others, by being greedy.

I tend to agree anthing less then 5v5 should be counted as a NS.

[PaulOakenfold]

Instead of punishing a squad that might just be having a VERY unlucky weekend with activity, we just get better squads into TWL, with MUCH stricter rules about getting in. Like a minimum amount of weeks or months it has to be established for, and an even GREATER minimum amount of games it has to play to get in.

[IceStorm]

Squads should make sure they have more than they need before making a date for a game.

[PaulOakenfold]

But some people don't realize that the squad that their in is captained by a bunch of.... well in capable captains.

[Horny Elf]

Well, i disagree. At least that 4vs5s should be classified as a NS. This season has showed how important +/- is and getting a 0-50 because you one weekend didnt manage to field a full team isnt fair. These leagues are often played during holidays and you cant expect people to just dismiss their sociallife because of a subspace game, and there arent enough good players around for all squads in every league to have 10/15 active players.

I consider myself as pretty active and still ive missed almost half of our games this season.

[Awesome]

yeah they should allow even 1v5 if only 1 guy shows up for his team, but having played 2 games with less than 5v5 should be considered a forfeit and the squad should be removed from twl

I agree fully. Next season we should crack down on the rules because if we don't, what good are they?

Completely agree with you, whats the point of playing a 4v5? It's pretty much a guarenteed loss anyhow.

[Cig Smoke]

I agree with awesome. If only 1 person from the squad shows up to a TWL game then he should be able to atleast play 1v5. They'll of course lose but they mite be able to muster some kills out of the deal. And it would rarely be a 1v5 situation, but anything is better then a 50-0 gimme game. And if a squad shows nethign less then 5 it should be considered a forfiet (let them play) but then put a strike by there name.

[Crazy Canockout]

I agree with everything said up to now. Less than 5 should merit a forfeit.

[IceStorm]

Leagues are not made for unorganized squads. And this season has been way too much work for the ops than it should be.

[Randedl]

the only problem with playing 1vs5 is that, if +/- is used, it completely distorts the system. i thought about that but then i figured that at the least, 3vs5 should offer some sort of opposition.

and horny elf, i mean classified as a no show in that if you get 2 you are kicked out. you still play the games and the scores are still calculated from there.

and to whoever mentioned the thing about captains. . . you need to assess who the captain of a squad is if you want to join it. saying you didn't see it comming is not an excuse

[Awesome]

randedl, a forfeited game of 0v5 would distort the system more than 1v5
