League General Discussion Thread

@gamerman01 I’m appreciative of your effort to track and make the league work. My hats off to you, because yes at the end of the day (or year) everything does seem to work out. And even though I’m a relative newcomer, I’m happy you provided a reasoned, frank response to my post. Really, I’m not disgruntled by the ranking system, but when other systems were being thrown out there, I just thought I’d put my idea out there. That it got some attention was satisfying/entertaining.
In the meantime, I keep playing and maybe see you out there.
Cheers:tumbler_glass: -
@jim010 Enough talk! KILL!

Not sure, but as I remember it was majikforce who discussed playing other players and how it hurt his record.
Not fully certain, but I believe that majikforce isn’t the one. He has previously explicitly stated that he doesn’t care about his rating and is happy to play newcomers to help them get aqcuainted with the league.
Maybe you are rather referring to me? :grin:

It’s not that bad if you allowed one game pr top tier player against a low/unranked player. I think it can be a neet addition
Regarding the discussion about ranking systems. Occhams razor is always a good principle. Keep things as simple as possible.

Ha, got 2 games going and maybe a third coming online… so, I will circle back once the situation has stabilized.

@Karl7 Maybe by then one of my games will finish as well and I can see what a top tier game looks like first-hand :smirk:

Not the psychosomatic thrilla-killa then? 3 games sound a bit on the low, careful side. ;)

I am famous for getting over committed to like 5+ games and then losing a bunch because I can’t keep track of what’s going on!

I just finished a few, but still have 13 simultaneous ones going. I agree. It’s not good.

You wanna play me? :grin:

For me now that I know there is a friendly area to play n to help players get better I am content with the League as is. trulpen and I are doing a Tutor game and I expect to do at least 2-3 of those a year for those interested. In fact our first one is just beginning! CHECK IT OUT!!!
Just for the record I don’t recall ever complaining about my rank. It really doesn’t matter to me. I know full well what my rank is and where I fit in this league. I waffle between tier 1 and E depending on my brain capacity that day:laughing: I know what players I can beat and what players I have can have a pretty even match with and what players kick my ass! (looking at you AD!) So my ranking is just a number. I enjoy playing new players to help them get up to speed and hopefully enrich the league play. Sometimes it burns me (ie trulpen and andrewgamer beating me as 3’s) but that’s okay. It just shows their skill level and my lack of skill in an area. All for the better. As for the ranking system I think it works great for this league and is a proven system (thanks for all you do gamerman, greatly appreciated) Some people will just always be a certain level player no matter who they play, some will grow to be better players, some will not. It takes a chunk of time and commitment to play this game and maybe the higher level players just don’t want to invest in that to beat up on some lower tier player. It may not even help that player to get stomped by an M. To have a balanced league the higher tiers should have somewhat of a responsibility to improve game play with their knowledge. But not at the cost of taking the fun out of the game. Just my thoughts. Great people, great league, great game! Bombs away.
