GE, any technical info about logo? Dimension? Weight?

@tomjh, I inputed some random numbers because I was testing to see that the formulas were working and the graphs were setup and updating properly. No tournaments have started yet but they will be cleared once the league starts. I was wondering if someone was going to point it out or not...

@KKND, Ummmm, you can make it as large as you want. But I'll be shrinking it to around the size of a clan icon so I assume it needs to relatively straightforward. Squares, rectangles, or any shape is fine. The rest is up to you.

Great Expanse is doing the overview?! This will be good.

Use that for my icon ;)

Well...

I would like a possibility to resign as player after one season. Of course, if a player leaves during a season, it's the manager's bad luck (or bad choice, whatever you wish ;-) ). But if a player decides for whatever reason that may be to leave between seasons, it is unneccessary to punish the manager even further.
He will have to buy a new player after all.

Keep in mind that a season does take some time. It is sometimes hard to plan in advance for two seasons.

@kroete

I think that is already a possibility in the current format. The player wanting to leave just has to notify the manager about it. Then the manager can sell the player after the first season ends, and get 90% of the price the player sold for + 50% of the change in price since then back, so the manager can buy new players to replace them. While you could say this is slightly punishing to the manager, it's only 10% of the original price they lose out on, so I don't think it's a major problem. As long as the player says when they don't want to take part in the league anymore, it is possible for them to leave without the manager being punished, assuming we are between seasons.

@kroete it is a possibility after one season. However if done during the season (hopefully never), it can be detrimental to the manager.

@MarkusBM Correct. This is assuming they sell them back into free agency (ie. drop the player).

A quick note to all teams. The originally posted 2v2 LotR template was incorrect. It had random warlords distribution. The correct template has warlords distribution. If you are playing practice games, it would be good to note that.

A heat map of the predictions so far! Darker colors represent more votes. Clubs are ordered by popularity, with the most popular at the top.

This poll is still open until Sunday. If you haven't entered your predictions, you can do so here - http://goo.gl/sDJGiz
Please remember to specify your WL name when you submit your vote, or it will be discarded from the final results.



As expected the Robot Unicorns are backed to win the first edition of this league. Warsenal FC are the overwhelming favourites to go down. Can they defy the odds?

2 things:
If Kenny gets to have • Apex at the end of his name, can i have Master at the front of mine??

If I'm not mistake, more people have placed me as a top 3 than robot unicorns? While there have been more people that have placed Unicorns at #1.

The poll is not editable. Sorry about that.

The breakdown is 11,7,5 for RU and 6,12,6 for LoL. The sorting function assigns weights to every rank, and based off of that it seems like RU ranks higher at the moment. Since the majority of your votes are for you finishing second, I'd say it seems legit :P

Yea I just looked and saw it was from the poll. Whateer its fine I'm just kinda comparing/trying to pick on Lolowut lol.... Time to beat the odds.

Beh, it's not about odds, but rather about how players think teams will be ranked. It's not a very good way to predict winners as it's more about popularity then anything.

When I mean popularity, I'm talking about having good well known players in your team.

More people ranking me first than Turtle? definitely wasn't expecting that :)
Then again more people ranking me last than any other team apart from Tjoex's
Definitely an odd distribution of votes.
Nice graph though

I think plats team is top 3 for sure, looks seriously under-rated here.

its a joke that so many voted spuds for the last spot...

It's not considering he kinda threw his 3v3 tournament..

Just analysed the graphs, statistically(tiers all added up (divided tier by 2 if only doing 5 games)), Spuds should come fifth, and yet only one person thought they would. On the other hand, Warsenal should come 4th.

Robot Unicorns 1st (22)
LoL 2nd (23)
WTF 3rd (24.5)
Warsenal 4th (27)
Spuds 5th (30)
Random Players 6th (31.5)

So it should be tight for 1st place, but 4th to 6th look set in stone, but let them prove us wrong.

Apparently you are assuming that all Tier 1s are worth the same. Same for other tiers.

The Auction for Group B will start: https://goo.gl/VnQscY

Each club from Group B will receive 130 Nohhams to purchase players in the auction.

The same rules will apply in regards to salaries and 2 season contracts.

The club that comes first and will be promoted into Group A will receive a promotion bonus to make them competitive in Group A.

Details regarding the promotion bonus and transfer policies will come out AFTER the Group B auction has finished.
