Thats a good idea, goblin! But the question seems a bit weird. I doubt anyone would say this is to 100% important for his participation. Just because people have an opinion on match lengths, it doesn't mean that its crucial to their participation in the league No, it's not and nobody would say that....

[longhair wrote]DO IT IF YOU WANT TO KILL THE LEAGUE hm longhair but you agree with me that a league lifes from activity ? Would you agree that active teams get an reward to hold the league active :) ? Maybe its sound better to give active teams (who hold the league alive) a reward like a bounus sy...

But I'll remind you again, the topic said: Please discuss and that is what I am doing. Now what is the problem with that? Did i say there is a proplem with that? Weare actually discussing, aren't we? :) But i think we reached the end, 'cause i finally understood your motivation and i hope you under...

So to make ducati special again, you will have to go further than copying other leagues like the pillbox league or the openleague (which before where copies of the ducati league). You would have to make the ducati league unique again to make it what it used to be, not make it even more equal and ar...

If you mean to have just one fixed match length, not an option, i agree 100%. The actual length i don't really care, 20 minutes sound very good imho But why no options? It wouldn't really make the score meaningless, if a team is better over 20 minutes, it will propably also be better over 30 minute...

I agree with Admirach, having 15 & 20 minute match limits, really makes no sense. It should be (15 OR 20) AND 30. As I said earlier, 20/30 makes the most sense to my scrambled brain. i agree with you there I'd rather say 15 minutes, that would be great f.e. for rematches, when both teams are al...

Getting a message from the Council would be good, then maybe an auto one from the league for first match, fifth match, etc. Of course whats important is getting recognition from the other active teams in the league. It should be the job of each team captain to recognize the new teams. granted, not ...

What I fear is that if the point system is adopted then the teams will only play 15 min matches and try to match as much as possible. Hehe, that is funny. Would it really be a bad thing if the teams match very often, especially if you see the current activity in the league? I think we should try to...

I like the idea that a match ends either after 30 minutes or when one team captured ten times. I believe every new team which starts playing in the ducati league gets beaten in the first few matches. Because they are new and just don't have the skill. But if they play like 0-16, it's normal that the...

It's good if you have a concrete vision of the 'new' league, but the council should really distinguish between the things which are actually and directly influenceable, and the things which would be nice, but completely depend on players attitude. What the council has to do, is to make the league mo...

Thanks qd for structuring this a bit. This sub-forum became pretty confusing during a short time :) 1: inactive teams lose points. How? we should work it out. At the moment GU has not a problem of inactivity, but if it were any I would support this suggestion to be applied on GU too. It is a good po...

One big problem with the ducati league is that it seems some kind of closed. Maybe all the people who play for a long time never made that experience, but i still remember that i started with both maps/leagues, GU and Ducati. And although im playing for quite a while now, i still feel like i'm a str...
