General discussion / Allow people to host their own leagues the same as tournaments and cups
« on: October 03, 2018, 07:47 PM »
I mentioned this briefly in the other thread, but I've been thinking about it some more and I really think this would be the best thing for TUS leagues going forward.
As with tournaments and cups, allow users to register their own leagues. Have it similar to cups where maybe 6-8 are active at any one time. The host of the cup can set the scheme (or schemes) and add any prizes that they want to. If say, 10 people sign up as interested then the league season will start, after which anyone can play and report games. If a league is inactive or a mod has gone AWOL it can be closed and a new league can start.
This way the league schemes will be determined based on their actual popularity on wormnet. If enough people want a mole shopper league, and someone can host it, fine. People want Aerial? Why not. If Senator or someone wants to host a league of classic schemes with cash prizes, great. Everyone can play what they want, and we'll see which kinds of leagues / schemes are the most popular and produce the most fun / competitive battles.
I'm sure we'd have a lot more league games played on tus than there is at the moment, and is surely worth a try rather than debating on the forums as to which schemes should be played, when no one is ever going to agree?
What do you think?
