But if we always play maps that have an easier 3rd, when a map with a hard to take 3rd comes up, the people won't be as comfortable? If its like 50/50 between old maps and new, I think people would play better, since they aren't straying too far away from their comfort zone. For example, the maps could be like: Python Destination Fighting Spirit Match Point Moon Glaive So that people can learn to use 2base/1base strategies and also learn to do more modern strategy. If we only use new maps, it will probably be really tough for people to learn, because there could be like many possibilities, since the newer maps are a lot more complex than the older ones. If you want a truly simple macro map, include Luna. I do actually think that Luna would be a great map to include for just that purpose: it's an incredibly simple map with zero gimmicks and it contains many of the things more modern maps do (unbuildable middles, etc.). The true issue with Python for me is PvZ. There's no point in practicing pvz on python. It doesn't help the p or the z player at all past D-. Python is not a macro map, it's really kind of the opposite. The rush distances are really short. Edit : It's also totally wrong for PvT and TvP, you have to go 2 gate goon into 2 base arbs/carriers unless cross positions usually. 2 Fac rushes are also really encouraged, the map just lends itself to bad habits. And with someone rigging the poll I don't think many of the votes for python are legitimate- until the discussion occurred it was actually behind almost all the other maps, leading me to believe its current position is probably due to Proom's signature. | ||

The fact that so many people are voting for python just MIGHT suggest that we should use it. It's not incredibly hard to make a poll, I'll go ahead and make one for you : Poll: Outsider : Love or hate? (Vote): Love (Vote): Hate | ||

The top team after the round robin in the West advances to play the top team after the round robin in the East. Winner would be like Champions of the Coach-Pupil league. And for the scoring: Lets say Team 1 beats Team 2 3-1 Team 1 would get 2 points Team 2 would get none because they couldn't get it to ace match. But lets say Team 1 beats Team 2 3-2 Team 1 would get 2 points But this time Team 2 would get 1 point. So it would be more fair. The Playoffs would be BO7, so each team would have to play 3 BO7 games, (4 if they come out on top and have to play the Finals.) So needs to be done, is to organize people into the different groups, East and West. Then make 6 teams for both groups. | ||

Rather than that it makes sense and I dont mind it... maybe we should have a poll on this too with our other massive polls....? xD | ||

I'm not saying they dont happen on 4 player maps I'm just saying that on 2 player maps cheesing is a lot easier since well you know where you opponent is... and I don't think D-/D/D+ should be cheesing for the most part since our mechanics and stuff isn't down and pat. Still Andromeda would also be a nice choice seeing how the mineral only and stuff could well, change things up more. + Show Spoiler + On December 07 2009 22:32 Gao Xi wrote: I think we should organize it something like the NHL since they do an awesome job with the setup. So for this it would be 2 groups of 6 teams. Group 1 would play against group 1 teams more, and Group 2 would play against group 2 teams more. And occasionally have group 1 teams play group 2 teams. The groups should be divided by timezone, so like Group 1 could be West and Group 2 could be East. So that way we could reduce lag, and timezone differences. And at the end of the season, we should have like playoffs, where the top 3 teams from each group play a round robin tournament for their group, and then the winner from each round robin tournament from the groups play each other in the final. Its sorta confusing but i'll use an example: Group 1: Group: 2 Team 1 Team 7 Team 2 Team 8 Team 3 Team 9 Team 4 Team 10 Team 5 Team 11 Team 6 Team 12 Lets say after the season Team 1,2,and 3 are the top 3 in Group 1, and Team 7,8, and 9 are the top in Group 2. Group 1 will have a round robin, so it would be like: 1 vs 2 1 vs 3 2 vs 3 Group 2 would look like 7 vs 8 7 vs 9 8 vs 9 Lets say Team 1 and Team 7 win the round robins. Then it would be Team 1 vs Team 7 for the grand finals. For season and playoffs points it could be like: Win = 2 points Ace match Loss = 1 point Lose = 0 points Just a thought, cause I think it would work well with this league. I to be fair really like this idea it kind of expands on the norm and makes it bit more interesting but I guess it's up to the general consensus of people.

Sounds like an easy to follow, sensible format. I think that's the best way to go | ||

Shouldn't playoffs be BO5 like PL and let the last events be BO7? Well sticking to the SPL format regular season games should be BO5. Playoffs should be BO7. Unless they would like to do like 2 BO7s for the grand final and like a super super ace match. Or something. | ||
