Only to EU right now. Though it's possible that a team from NA drops after season 1, we can't guarantee that. |

| I think take shakuras plateau and entombed valley out. Put in a map called ESV Ithaca. The map is sick! |

I think platinum league should be allowed to play. The fact that TKP now has three players in plat in no way affects my judgement  |

| I think it should be kept at Gold, Silver, Bronze. Due to the fact that it promotes players to keep playing and they won't feel like they are getting carried by the players in Gold and Platinum. |

I think it should be Bronze - Plat, Best of 4 matches, 1 match for each league rank. But if that's too hard to get enough players, make it whatever best suits the masses.
Also, Team OTV would like to play; we have players from Bronze - Diamond.
I also heavily recommend having a website w/ a forum. So much easier than having a running thread on TL. I would even consider to have SC2Clans.org sponsor the event and give you the needed web space and tools to run the league. Just let me know.Last edit: 2012-06-20 11:48:53 |

Its not an all-kill format, so theres no such thing as one player carrying a team. |

| I would seriously consider taking out Metropolis. Only due to the lag the map causes. For some reason they added too many doodads or something that seriously drops FPS on certain comps (mine included). The graphics setting i use to run Metropolis at 50fps runs all other maps at 100+ |

based off of season 1, there werent enough active bronze players throughout the season, so its better imo if this league just ran from silver to plat. |

Bronze is a tough call. On the one hand, they were the limiting factor in season 1; we barely had enough bronze to go ahead with our original format and even then many of them dropped out throughout the season. However, we had players legitimately go from bronze to gold and even plat after just one season of practice and play, and some of them were just as passionate and consistent as ace match players. In my opinion, we should keep them, but that would also be dependent upon having enough recruits.
And K^2, don't worry, Metalops is out for us since it won't be in the ladder pool. Thankfully I only had to play on that stale piece of rust once this season. |

| Also, we need to discuss a little the way teams are gonna register for Season 2. The e-mail we got from Guns 'n' Roaches, I think, is the best way to do it: they've sent all the players from their team that still want to play, as well as their respective current ranks, all in one e-mail. That makes things easier for us since we now just need to fill the rest of their team with backup players. |

I think it should remain bronze, silver, and gold, unless we think bronze players aren't gonna be around enough. I know my team is pretty tight now, and a decent amount of us are still in bronze-gold. Silver-Plat works if that's the issue, but I don't wanna see this league scaling to the current player's skill levels, as much as it pains me to say that. That said, season 3 should not be gold-diamond, which is where I feel the heart of this discussion lies. So I'll provide an alternative me and my teammates discuss pretty frequently:
The idea we bounce off each other, is staying active in this league, and transitioning to a coaching role as we outgrow the league. I mean, I stopped playing in the CTL a while back since my team took 5th (sucks we had a better win/loss than some of the other teams in the playoffs), and I'm still more into starcraft since the beginning of the CTL.
It's also provided the opportunity for me to get a couple of my IRL friends to try and play the game, by telling them all about this team league I play in. An actual, organized team league that they can experience, that will help them transition into the SC2 scene permanently. They're now bronze, and I look forward to putting them in this league and training them with everything I've learned/everything my team has learned.
TL;DR: Don't scale the league to the players, veteran players take up coaching roles/help the administrators in the league. Give back.Last edit: 2012-06-21 02:40:45 |

| The main problem with BSG is that their is not enough bronzies to go around. Most of the bronzies from last season ended up disappearing |
