No, you didn't read the qualifier
It's updated to and including Week 6. Week 7 follows Week 6 and is therefore not included.

Ok, I guess that the 4th series with Takk decided by w.o.'s and the third where they were up in wins, and then lost due to w.o.'s. So I guess that's par for the course. That just leaves week 7 and 8.

So what still needs to happen?

Do we have enough players still around to run round 2, or should it go to playoffs, or should we open it to see if more players will join?

I think regardless, Takk will need more active players.

I voted mid december but I don't really care... I'm not confident we'll have much participation for the playoffs regardless of when we hold them. I myself have barely touched the game since my last match.

There is, and maybe there won't be enough but let's see. There does sadly seem to be less new blood these days.

i remember the days when the C rank teamleague was still active. It's sad to see the D rank teamleague go too.

Can't say I agree. Up through at least season 3, and I'm pretty sure 4 as well there were more than enough true D guys for a league, and the first several DRTLs were absolutely true D leagues. There just doesn't seem to be as many new guys coming in to play, and over time many of the initial guys either ranked up or stopped playing very actively.

This season was fine, the huge break killed it though.

There just doesn't seem to be as many new guys coming in to play, and over time many of the initial guys either ranked up or stopped playing very actively.


I think the problem is that the first seasons were true D leagues, but then as it went on the people who practiced and played the most for it eventually got to C- and whether or not they can hold it or not, they still got C-. I understand why you'd bar those people, but eventually everyone in DRTL will make it out of D/D+ given enough time to play as most of the newcomers who don't end up becoming C- themselves either don't have much time to play at all or don't have active opponents to practice with. I know if it wasn't for the help of the active players in DeSPA and people like Nina and Arcania I probably never would've gotten out of D.

The others like a lot of the people who signed up for this season just go inactive and leave the active people still in D/D+ and eligible to play, kind of stuck as they don't have anyone to play with in their teams or their opponents never show up which is really sad. Personally I think it'd be better to combine both D and CRTL since both of them seem to be struggling to find people (saying that I've not seen anything about a CRTL since I hit C- ages ago, sadly I haven't had much time to play recently myself )

Something to consider for sure, good thoughts. Might be some changes to next season to allow more players again (assuming I can find one or two people that can help me with the actual day to day running of the league), but perhaps in a manner that prevents say C- guys from getting matches up against guys that can't get to D+. I'll think about, and be open to, format ideas. Only downside to that is that it makes for more work, and definitely makes it harder to get in games if someone doesn't show because you lose the ability to sub in whoever.

Either way, let's plan on playoffs over break and see what happens. I'm going to say playoffs start December 20th. Same time as usual. Finals on January 3rd. Worst case is we don't get much participation and this season ends up being a partial wash; for which I'm largely to blame and apologize for not having my shit together and stuff in place in the event I got really busy.

Now that does leave us with some downtime of about 2 months, so I was thinking of having a short 4-5 week for fun league allowing C- guys to give people some BW to think about and get back to playing. Interest?
