6/22 ~= 27% lol

Nice. I'd also add this:

(1) League A and League B will each be limited to 20 players in the second season. There might also be a League C, which would bring the total number of players to 60 or so.

(2) League A's #1 through #15, League B's #1 through #5, and a few top players will be invited to League A's games. For example, it is likely Bumblebee, Bishes, and Aquaholic will be invited to League A next time (the first season's division of players was based on voting).

(3) Anyone else will be invited to League B's games.

(4) Maps for the second season:
- 1v1: Ancient China or Modified Medium Earth
- 2v2: Imperium Romanum
- 3v3: Middle East
- 4v4: East Asia or Africa or Europe 1600
- Each season will have a new map until all of WL's top maps have been used. Then, the next time the map is used for our season, it will be for a new format (ie, if the map was first used for a 1v1, its next usage would be for a 2v2 or 3v3). Other maps to be used in subsequent seasons: Scandinavia (1v1 or 2v2), East Confines (2v2 or 3v3), Italy Medium (1v1), Poland Big (3v3, 4v4), Troll's United States (1v1, each state = 1, bonuses = 0), Chaos' Four Kingdoms (1v1, 2v2), etc.

(5) Teammates for next season:
- 2v2: #1 with #20. #2 with #19, etc.
- 3v3/4v4: #1/#19/#10, #2/#20/#9 (or something like this to avoid having the same teammate twice), etc.

How about we make a closed vote or an inside discussion about the maps? There are many more options I think. For example I think Imperium Romanum may be very good for 2vs2, but in some distribution modes Greece is overpowered. How about you invite [20] members to a closed discussion, eliminate season 1 settings and make a vote for all the others?

send myhand to league Z plz. i dont want such a bad player at this league

You will not be invited in my league Z! No matter how bad you play.

hey if you dont throw me out, does that mean i get teamed up with sze next league?

and you forgot to make an asterix behind heyheuhei cause of me :/

So we established, that myhand will be forced to play with himself? We already knew that :)

monsenhor chacina played only 2 or 3 games. his ai is better than you myhand. i am sure he would give his 3 points if he was here. what a shame. :) but dont be upset i will help you to improve your skills.

Szewen,

Each new season will have 4 maps: 1-2 familiar maps, 2-3 unfamiliar or less familiar maps. The best players are the best bc they can adjust to any map provided the settings have nothing special/crazy about them.

If you want a discussion, go ahead and invite people to a game to chat. Get a majority of votes for any map other than the ladder maps/settings and we can do that. If you can't get a majority or can't be bothered to be more active, I'll just pick from among the 16 maps that are worth using.

Btw., those final non-rr tournaments, will they have seats (like in play-offs) or standard random 1st round?

Also I can't invite more than 6 players into a game, so making a chat-game is possible for members only.

Buy a membership then! lol

You mean seeds (Final Four: #4 vs #1, #3 vs #2)? That'd be cool. We could do that. Though I don't think it really matters, for a couple reasons. (1) Player 1 is good, my team or I beat him when he's an AI, you lose to him when he is not. I get a slightly better seed but might not deserve it. (2) Tournaments allow us all to see the results, have a chat feature, and have a few other benefits. (3) Who makes the games? Will they be made in a timely manner?

Maybe HHH's name should look like this:

Heyheuhei# (10*^+)

* = Teammate or Self Is Often Booted or Limited Participation
^ = Joined strong teams to upset the team balance bc he didn't read the chat lol
# = HHH
+ = He smoked everyone in his 1v1 RR

I guess # does special things and + does too...

Can i join league B?
This looks interesting

Lykus, 20 is for good/great players. Invite one of the top players to a game. Beat them 40% of the time and you're in. But don't invite me please. Based solely on your post-October stats (likely inflated from 10% to even 30% due to weak competition), I don't think you'd be especially competitive in League B.

Otherwise, myhand might let you join League Z.

I'd love to be invited to whatever basement league is being considered, but not if it means having to hear from Lykus about how much he hates Christians.

20 is really strict on who they let in. Only the best of the best are alllowed.
As an alternative, I'd say check if there'll be a new edition of proving grounds. The current tourney is nearing its end, and it helped me a lot with my games.
But the creator, emgzapper, has been inactive for a while, so I don't think there'll be a second season.
