The ladder stage seems to be picking up very slowly, so let me ask this, because I respect and value the opinions of the players in the league!

What about the option to have it a open ladder? Is that not viable here?

Unfortunately, an open ladder is not viable in a tournament of this sort because the rules would have to have dramatic changes to prevent cheating and abusing. Besides that, I don't really have a staff of minions to keep an eye on everyone's matchlists, so it would be very difficult to do at this stage, unless I wanted to sit at my computer all day, which I don't. That hurts my butt.

Therefore, the next best option would be start on group stages right away. Unfortunately, this would mean that a lot of players would be knocked out of the competition almost immediately, and I didn't like this. I wanted to give lesser-skilled players more time to practice and be a part of the competition, hence the ladder stage. The drawback to the ladder stage right now is that school is going to be starting soon, and a lot of people have very tricky schedules. If the ladder activity doesn't pick up, I was considering going right into group stages, but I want to respect the players' decisions and give them a voice before making such a drastic decision.

What if there was enough manpower to check players matchlists for an open ladder, would it then be considered?

I'd have no problem checking some matchlistes for you to see wether players have played a certain opponents several times or played lower ranked players. ASL was good, but I couldn't be arsed staying online waiting for other players to log in. I logged in, checked, then logged out and went on my ladder-account as there were no players online. I think the league would benefit from it and might get some more attendees if the opponents played several YSL-tagged players given the fact that registration is still up.

dont know why people are complaining about games, if you qualify with less games, you have an easier shot at that cash-money!

Anyway, this is a huge downside to any level for BW because it's really inactive but gl
