I still think Despa or SunKan should merge with Phoenix, but if they don't there are barely enough free agents to get each of them to 7 players (I think).

because then there would be so many people who wouldn't get to play, duh

Of course, with a team league like this we can postpone games later on in the week which means more people can play if the postponements work out alright.

If teams have any new additions, I'd much prefer if they made a new post in this thread instead of updating their first post. I'm too lazy to sift through all the pages to see if anything's changed between teams.

I really like the Bo5, no ace match system. Ace matches can be fun, but since we're playing the regular format (and not all kill), there will probably be some rescheduling, and rescheduling and ace matches doesn't mesh very well, and I would rather sacrifice the ace match. Also, I guess that if two teams are lacking a 5th player one week, then two active players could play a impromptu ace match, if necessary that is. If the score is 3-1 after 4 games, there's no need for a 5th set obviously.

I didn't want to post the lineup at different stages, because having a few incomplete lineups in the thread could be confusing. But if we add any more players, I, or someone on the team will also make sure to introduce them in a new post.

Updated list of free agents...
rauk (TvZ) D+ PsyonicReaver (TvZ) D+ amazingxkcd D sgs.kalk D/D+ Pyre_Fly (ZvT) D buddycasino D awerti D/D+ art_of_turtle (PvT) D+ Biolunar D DarkNetHunter D/D+ Duke D/D+ puppykiller D+ LTY D-/D
Gonna update the free agent list everyday there's a new free agent as we approach March 1st. If the ideal number of players on each team is going to be 7, it seems like we have enough free agents, with two remaining, to accomplish that.
In terms of how the series is going to be played out, under these circumstances, I agree with L1ghtning that playing a Bo5 without an ace match would be the best idea at this point. Maybe during the semi-finals/finals, we can play each set one after another in order, instead of all playing at once, to actually give off the vibe of a ProLeague setting, but during the season, when we'll also most likely be playing the season throughout April/May where most of the people attending school will be taking exams will be busy studying, we might as well get our games done in the most efficient way possible.

I don't see why we can't PP the Ace match if it is necessary for teams with few players... I feel like that is the easiest solution - leaving it up to the teams involved to decide. What I mean is, say Sun Kan is facing someone, we will say "sorry, we only have 4 people who are available to play this week, would you mind if game 5 is ace match format?" and the other team can say yes/no and we will work off that...
BTW, Sun Kan, will be adding 2-3 new members this coming week. I managed to contact a few players from my former college and they said they are interested. I know that we said that all new players should go to free agent status but I feel like since I know them IRL and I went out recruiting them that they should be able to join a team lacking in players... If there are objections, let me know.

I talked with Pebble, Sun Kan captain, and I will be rejoining the Sun Kan team again for this season as T player (since I was on the roster previously from last seasons).
just a couple of thoughts:
I don' t understand anymore why people are saying Sunkan Should merge with Phoenix or DeSPA. Neither persons or captains from any of those 2 teams said they wanted to merge, though if really necessary, then merging should be done.
The fact that we are having more new players sign up is quite a good thing, From previous seasons playing on Sun Kan, we never flat out dropped games even though our roster contained of only 5-6 players at most for a bo7. If people are signing up to play, then they show that they want to make commitments to this league. Walkovers will happen. It's a part of life playing brood war. Shit happens. It happens in every league, whether it be a bo7 or a bo3 between 2 guys. I don't think reducing match length is going to stop walkovers, but rather reduce the amount of players that can play.
D+/C- talks. It really doesn't matter since it seems like the line between D+ and C- is so thin now that they sometimes cross over each other. If some players hit C- before, but don't consistently stay at C-, then I would just consider them D+.
Lastly: map pools.
Please Lmaster, use some of BWMN maps that they made. They look cool and fun to play on. Take out outsider or another map if needed , since we as a bw community need to support everyone from players to casters to map makers since we all do it for the love of the game.
TL:DR; Im back on Sun Kan, please remove me from free agent list.

If there is a map you should take out it should be Fighting Spirit, imo. Some of the older maps like Destination should also go.
Replace with like...Dante's Peak, La Mancha, Ground Zero

Is it because you're a dirty Terran?
HBR, Matchpoint sound like fine additions. I just wouldn't like watching games with Fighting Spirit and Destination in there because those are maps everyone seems familiar with and are just very boring now. I get enough snipealot fighting spirit games.
