If you think that everyone is afraid playing vs you, you are wrong. I don't mind playing vs twistah, u or some other guy. What's the reason of game then? Bashing noobs? That's not interesting

I'm just disappointed that I have to play vs. a clanmate in such an early stage. I thinks thats all. :/

You guys have time till 9 December (09.12.2009)
have fun there!

joke XD

I thought this deadline isnt serious tbh... -_-
And is it my fault now that my opponents kinda give up after 1 round and dont come back the following 4-5 days? -.-

Edit:
but sure, you prefer to play vs twistah, I can understand this.
well, Im gonna play John then.

I'll give it a try.
Some review will be posted later. ^^

Im fed up waiting and hearing excuses of only weekends of laptop etc. Can we just play CF in final? They made just 20 games and we dominated the season. I know its no excuse for a bye but they are showing a complete disreguard for these playoff games.

we're waiting for you ^^

hum, I was leading 1-0 vs FaD and I couldnt find him the last 5 days so we could finish our match...
with that I would have been first in my group, so I'd like to play this...
And I also talked with twistah who has problems with his internet at the moment. :/

EPIC third game!

Well I think u should make a special rule about just this move then. [...]

Elite and T17 games should simply be hosted in #PartyTime. Then these 2 schemes dont have any rules afaik.
The less rules all the schemes have the better for playing them.

I think it was no knock.
Zippo, host your t17 and Elite games in #PartyTime and you dont have trouble with rope knock cases.

There is one solution that was highly discussed in the FB forums: No Rules BnG.
Weaps: Zook, Nades, Torch, Drill, Firepunch and Teleport (everything unlimited)
Rules: kill your opponent, before you're dead.
I just try to give you the most important pros and cons:
pro:
- no discussion about cows or rules in general, cause there are no rules at all.
- faster games in general
cons:
- its just not the same compared to "normal" bng, its not just about throwing nades and fireing zooks, its also about hiding and finding the easiest shot that will do the most damage and push the opponent in a bad hide
- its lame / less stylish shots in games

I personally love this scheme and I think that nrbng should replace normal bng in league games, cause I really hate discussions about style and/or rules in bng games, but I usually have them in every 2nd bng game...

1. Player1 has more points seasonal but less overall points than player2
2. Player1 has more overall points but less seasonal points than player2
3. Player1 has more overall and seasonal points than player2:  Player1 will be seeded sooner.
4. Player1 has less overall and seasonal points than player2:  Player2 will be seeded sooner.

What do you think it must be case1 and case2?

My opinion:
Case 1: player2 should be seeded sooner.
Case 2: player1 should be seeded sooner.
-> Overall PO seeds: 1,3,5,7; Seasonal PO seeds: 2,4,6,8 (tho I prefer a system like I previously posted )

But another important case is if someone is in the overall top4 AND the seasonal top 4.
Then he should be seeded on the highest PO seed. Means if someone is overall #3, but seasonal #1 then he should be seeded in PO seed 2 according to his seasonal ranking.
If someone is #2 in Overall rankings and #2 in seasonal rankings then he should be seeded in PO seed 3 according to his overall ranking.

How about simply removing this numbering in Playoffs? People who achieve the conditions to qualify to the Playoffs will be in Playoffs at the end of the season and site will generate the pairs randomly.

this is shit imo, cause the seasonal winner shouldnt be play vs the overall leader in the quarterfinals, as they both are probably better then e.g. the seasonal 4th.
Maybe you could add a little randomness by creating playoff pairings as follows:
Group 1: Seasonal #1 and Overall #1
Group 2: Seasonal #2 and Overall #2
Group 3: Seasonal #3 and Overall #3
Group 4: Seasonal #4 and Overall #4

Games are:
2x Group 1 vs Group 4; Winners = Group A
2x Group 2 vs Group 3; Winners = Group B

Semi-Finals:
2x Group A vs Group B

with a system like this you wont be able to pick a specific opponent for your playoff games, but you usually still have an advantage if you can be #1 in seasonal or overall rating.
The only thing that should be cleared is who picks first if some of the same starting group have to play against each other (for example: final is Season #1 vs Overall #1).
My suggestion for this case would be to let the player with a higher overall rating pick first.

But I don't think it is that much harder for the overall player to be on top of the standings. For example right now Random00 made himself first in the standings while some hours ago he was complaining (In this topic) it is so hard.
[...]

I didnt really complain for me in my situation cause I didnt have too much points when this season started; I was more talking about the future or the situation of someone like Nail or Ray.

For example just today Random00 beat obscure in BnG (Game 12772) and earned 54 points.
I think it really is a matter of analyzer.

This was maybe simply because I didnt reach my longterm BnG point amount yet. So the system was bad for obscure just because he did play more bng games so far. And thats why the overall rating should be considered "worthier" compared to seasonal rating.
Cause longterm I would maybe just get 40 points for bng win vs obscure if we have the same bng skill.
All in all I think that the system is quite ok if you're talking about an interval of 3-4 seasons. But I dunno ift still fair after this time... I doubt it, thats all

we rematched with handicaps after he accidentally surrendered in the first round.

in my opinion its much easier to become first in the season rating then in the overall rating.
With a system like this I dont see any positive aspect in keeping your overall stats when a new season starts.
When I want to qualify for playoffs my aim is to qualify always with the best conditions, but when you have like 3000 overall points and some player who is a bit worse then you starts with ~1500, then its almost impossible for you to become first in this season (when you play approx. the same amount of games in this season).
