Vitek: Yeah, about that. In what bundle was Blood Bowl? I got it from there and don't have need for rest of the games.

Thanks. That will be it.
Yet more official stuff

To advertise and bloat season 3 playerbase, ive created hasty sign up thread

BOOKMARK IT
My two cents:

- League length: I like length we had in both seasons so far. Long enough to make a comeback, but not so long that you don't see an end.
- Reboot: We "oldies" had the opportunity to continue developing our teams so i think it would be nice to give the same opportunity to our newer members. That said, I'm not opposed to a reboot.
- Playoffs: Should just be played as quickly as possible.
- New season: Directly after play-offs.
- Changes: New thread for the new season? I would like to take over the second post of said thread and update that post with the match dates if the players send them to me. Meaning I'll post something like "Team A will play team B on Date X at hour 0, and there will be a live stream on twitch channel U." And keep that updated for every match day. What do you think?
I agree with Piranjade.

And if you will be able to do the "changes" part, it will be perfect.

iippo: We are still considering this between admins (Zeta, Piran - your ears needed). 8 people in playoffs = "3 matchdays".

However, season 3 is unlikely to wait for finalists, unless majority of the league really want downtime. Being the best means having to work all that harder as well ;)
My two cents: I would not be opposed to a one-week break if we're going to do traditional match days.

As for some of the other concerns, indeed, I liked the length of the season. If I had to nitpick, I'd like to see more activity in the Open Access league since I want to play some other people from the other divisions, but that's not reg-league-based, so, just throwing that out.

Also, a match schedule in a new season thread would be CHOICE. Would strongly back that.

I'm all for a reboot. I don't mind losing but I'd rather lose because I have crappy tactics and not because I am throwing a rookie team against a team with 20+ SP.

I think there's still snotling that has as much SPP as my whole team. Well atleast was before, might ive finally catched up after 10 games :)
Well my opinion:

- Length is fine for me, could be longer, could be shorter, I don't mind either way. Buuuut, if it stays about the same we'll not finish by Christmas/New Years. I suggest a two week suspension of the league as many people will be visiting relatives or simply going on holidays during that period.

- Reboot. I am strongly in favor of one.I like how my dwarfs are doing but I'd like a reset none the less. As TV spirals upwards there are less differences between teams. At 1000 TV teams seems more distinct to me. And the second reason is I just don't see how a 1000 TV team vs 2000-2500 TV team match can be entertaining. Even with inducements the starting team is at a heavy disadvantage and with mercs likely getting a big portion of the SPPs the team will grow even slower.

- Playoffs - faster than the current setup but withing reason (at least a day between matches or something like that :) )

- New season - If I don't get into playoffs then directly after, if I do, then a break for about a week between seasons :)) Actually, either way, a break for a week would be good considering many want the playoffs to be faster. It would be nice to give the players taking part a short break.

- Other changes - I have no idea :)

Even more official stuff - Poll!

...soooo starting the season fresh with new teams seems to interest quite few teams, thus i made poll.

Vote here

This poll is intended only for Season 2 players and please vote only once.

It should show the voting results when i finally close the poll after 28 answers :)

Anyways, i am not promising automatic 100% democracy here - but if reboot is what clear majority wants, then some serious thought must be put to it. Should the reboot actually happen, the old teams can be brought back on season 4, if so desired.

Length of the season was good in my opinion. If we hit 40 it would get longer... but that's also more variety.

Reboot? I may be a little bitter about losing my ONE good player... but I'd get over it. I'm pretty indifferent and could go either way.

Having said that, if I see 4 chaos teams in the same division again, I'll jump in front of a bus.

Seems people want us to rush through playoffs quickly. If so, that changes my opinion for the next season. If I make it, I can play my games at whatever rate we decide to go with.

However, if people really want these games that fast, no way in HELL should the next season start right away. Maybe a week or two off. Would give people more time to consider and play test new teams if they want to change as well. (HINT HINT OPEN ACCESS LEAGUE)

Piran, if you could do that, it'd be pretty sweet I must say.

Id say around a week might be realistic. Anyways, just a day or two just wont work.

I mean there must be some time to register all new teams for starters.

I wonder if it was mistake to put that "meh" answer there in the poll.

YAY! I have to say that I like to sit down in the evening and watch a GOG Weekly match, chatting with the other spectators, so having such a "TV guide" would be really nice for me as well.

Edit: And I voted.
