I know you're disappointed in this decision, but the same risk for forfeiture would have been true, at some point, for 3 divisions instead of 1 if things weren't going Wolf's way in any division.
That said, I was present all last week and this week in-game watching TWD challenges come through, and the only challenges I saw coming from Wolf, with the exception of Sunday, were for TWDDs. I carried over Shiggymon's TWDD qualifying rounds for LD when you guys switched to Wolf, and kept track of qualifying matches played for LJ and LB, but there were no JD matches played (out of a total 5) that could have counted towards qualifying for LJ, and zero BDs played. Wolf shows 3 total JDs played (none are qualifying eligible) and again, zero BDs played. I took all of that into account when making this decision from a risk perspective for the entire league, and wasn't something personal against Wolf.
I may have some options for you regarding Wolf's current TWL Roster limit (7), though. PM me in game!
Our BD
2 JD's for WOLF
5 JD's for SHIGGYMON
If nothing else, I feel like Wolf should at very least get to participate in javelin no? Like I said, a good portion of my squad isn't even here to play warbird. All those folks will end up quitting. We did a total of 7 JD's. Base I can understand but still, there's proof we were interested and tried to get basing games..
Edit: Realized what you meant, that some weren't eligible. Our bd was eligible though. Even still..that sucks man! You can see we were getting games though, I don't think my captains understood what it took to make games eligible.

I appreciate the consideration the very least. I disagree with you on not doing it though and view it the exact opposite. The folks on my team and other teams that only made LD qualifiers are already committed to showing up on Sundays. I think there will be less interest to show every single sunday if it's just for LD whereas if we could LJ/LB more folks would want to stick around and participate. For Wolf especially, half our roster doesn't like to warbird. So what are they going to do? They're going to quit playing I can already imagine mid-season if we are losing every game and can only play warbird, you'll be seeing forfeits from us just due to lack of subs once half or more stop logging in.

To address the few posts asking about a 10-squad LJ / LB I did consider it earlier in the week depending on effort and interest from squads who hadn't qualified. Ultimately, I decided against this as there just was not a lot of push from the teams trying to qualify, and the vets I spoke to on SPASTIC indicated they were not interested having the squad participate in TWLB. It would have been nice, but the risk for mid-late season match forfeitures was just too high with 10 teams in those divisions.

I had an idea. Please consider!
What if remaining squads that didn't qualify that wanted to enter LJ and LB get drawn at random by Turban to compete? I think it would be sick af to have 10 squads in each division competing and there's squads like Rocket, Spastic and mine that would love to be able to play in those divisions.
Why not fill them up? It's more people playing. It's more games. It's more of what we love! Comeon fam, let us in!

Speaking of rules, hopefully the softlock I read means people rostered to a TWL roster can't move squads after week 1, meaning only twd rostered people who didn't make it and squadless people can join a TWL squad. With small rosters, means more thrust between people and playing other leagues more.
Make people commit now rather than the usual squad hopping. For both a high or a low squad, having hops (even if justified) during for first weeks can be troublesome for any squad.

Even though not by the rules, for the sake of scheduling, and given that you have an uneven number of LD squads (11), allowing 2 more in both base and jav to even it out at 10.
Divine, Rocket or even Wolf could play LJ. These squads recruiting 1-2 guys for jav (a few available) and they'll do as good as the current bottom squads.
Two of those or convincing Spastic to play (alot tried) in the mesh, to fill LB.

Wolf would love to TWL-B this season but unfortunately, we aren't able to meet the requirement. We were able to get 1-2 games in (1 with wolf, 1 with shiggymons) we just ran out of time and found it near impossible to get teams to verse us. Had we been able to get our plans made sooner for TWL and formulated Wolf earlier, we could of probably met the requirements.
I will say, if the league op's are willing to bend the rules for Wolf to TWL-B that I think it would prove beneficial for TWL as it would be one more squad competing. I understand that there might be nothing that can be done but it's worth mentioning here and I appreciate any/all considerations! If nothing else, Wolf will be able to LJ/LD so it's not a complete wash. Still would love to be able to base.
