Grandfathered
Hello 19 community
If you are reading this thread, that must mean you have read both the original post MYT made and the comments. IF you have not, please go do so.
The conversations sparked from the different interests in the community really is what inspired me to create this thread, so shout out Hass, you killed it.
I would really love to implement a league of sorts, make it a quarterly thing so that seasons are short and to not drag things out too long. (up for discussion)
I would ideally like to start the league at the end of January and end the first season at the end of April.
(Taken from Hass's comment on OP w/ edits)
Ex:
- Going to contact guild teams who are in the guild directory and have noted they are premading.
- Play x number of matches within a month where a win is 3 points, tie after 1 hour is 1 point, and loss is 0 points
- Each guild has to play each other x matches min/maximum
- If a guild dodges/no shows a premade, -3 points for no show and +3 for their opponent (up for discussion)
- At end of the quarter, the top 4 guilds on the leader board with the most points does a best of 3 series and then that guild wins the "season"
- consumable rules etc...
- composition rules etc...
- safe spotting rules etc...
(Not sure if I want to do a ally & horde conference or just have teams make their teams on both ally and horde. The latter requires a lot of resources and time that some teams don't have and others do, which can create an imbalance, plus the honor farm takes time.)
Prizes as of right now are going to be none and alot of logistical rules will be implemented over time.
Roster size is also an issue I want to tackle, being that we will be playing a video game which involves accessible accounts (from nearly any location), I don't (ideally) want to see already exclusive/contracted players using accounts that are not exclusively theirs. Meaning, everyone needs to be accounted for to make this league a fun and competitive event for the community. AND we all know who plays for who at this point in time, its a somewhat tight knit community. Please respect the community.
Roster sizes. I would love to see teams coming in with at least 12 players minimum and 16 players maximum. (up for discussion)
I want games to actually happen so I think in order to ensure that we need larger team rosters (kind of like sports team roster) you should be allowed your 10 starters and 2-6 bench players and they can be switched throughout the season, but must be exclusive to the team they play for, player management is going to need some discussion when I know how many games can be played in a quarter and also have a way to keep teams true to the rules.
Rules will be on a team by team basis, where the mods of the event play witness to rules set and agreed upon by both teams participating.
Rules the I personally think should be implemented.
if 0-0 by 45 mins - TIE
If 1-0 by 45 min - 30 Min stoppage time (if nothing else happens, game over @ 1.25 hrs)
If 1-1 by 1hr (30 mins added to make a tie, last cap wins - up for discussion)
if game is really back & forth, then after 1hr every cap is +30 mins (2 cap max interval) and after 2hr +15 mins (2 cap max interval)
NO GAME should pass 2.5 hours.
(I'm entertaining the idea of adding a first to cap wins idea, let me know what you guys think. Could be a option for teams who want to compete but don't have much time to fight the stallers of the bracket)
I plan on editing the post as I figure things out and come up with better ways to enhance the overall experience with this IDEA.
I am also looking for moderators/organizers to help me tackle this task. (Ideally I'd like a mature member of each team competing and others not competing to help me in this venture) DM if you are interested. I will be reaching out.
Thank you guys
Please don't let this flop!!
p.s No shade to MYT, I personally just don't want anyone with a one-sided bias to be running this event. Especially when it has great potential. That being said Nasti if you want to help, I'll take it.
