  1. 1. Would you join a Hyperspace dueling league?

So with the death of the former league, I was wondering whether another one would ever be put up. I'd be willing to do my part in any way possible.

As another active player, I would do the same.

If it's 1v1 dueling, then I'm up for it.

 

Too lazy to work with a team and do strategies and builds. It was just about which team has the lamest builds anyway.

If you mean team dueling league, I'm all for it. HS needs a break from flagging!

 

Yes, I was referring to a team dueling league.

 

 

League needs to happen again. If I can help.... who am I kidding, I've got nothing to offer.

 

But I still have hope.

 

Everyone has something to offer, even if it's just as a meatshield for your teammates. =)

 

 

Why did the last attempt fail?

 

 

cuz ppl didn't do it rite

 

This doesn't mean we just give up. Figuring out what went wrong, and then fixing it is the first step to a successful league. Perhaps you could offer some insight rather than your usual blunt remarks.

I was referring to team dueling. 1 on 1 dueling can be done on your own time, and there is already statistics for it on the website. I don't think adding a league for it would make much of a difference. But if team dueling takes off, who knows? 1 on 1 dueling might be next.

 

As for the lamest builds, I'm not sure whether you are referring to the alien techs ( which were banned from league ) or simply "overpowered items". In my opinion, having a team with decent chemistry can easily overtake a couple lame builds.

 

As for being lazy, I'm gonna assume that most people aren't, especially since I see many people on for long periods of time.

Player-run? I wouldn't mind seeing competition between self-formed squads. We could allow a week for teams to form, then organize a dueling schedule, and finally hold matches in gduel or league. Similar rules as before. Winning team splits a money prize Edited by BZAP

Why would these refs resist abusing their power when the previous ones couldn't?

I was a ref before and did no such abusing.

Can the laugue be setup so that at any point in time you could have a 3v3 elim or something on the spot?

Can the number of players in the "game" be adjustable depending on how many people are available.

 

This zone has a lot of people that are on at unpredictable times and there are not usually enough people to make a decent game out of.

 

Are 3v3 stats on team v team recorded like duel stats are?

Can those stats be posted as a team and as individual members of a team?

More like team duels whenever at least 3 players on 2 different teams were online and willing to play.

Maybe you did maybe you didn't, all I know is some did. It was not a personal accusation!

I understand; I was just pointing out that there are people willing to ref who will not abuse. Additionally, I don't think finding them would be too difficult, either.

I would actually really like to see some players step up and and put something together

 

Since I started this topic, I guess I'll provide a rough setup. It will be revised if needed.

 

First, I'd need to know what type of arenas/maps we'd be allowed to change/have a moderator change.

 

Anyone willing to captain will create a squad, and sign up for the league. There will be a maximum number of captains allowed, since having 56 teams with 1 captain doesn't help anything. The players willing to play in league would be given a 2 week period to sign up on a thread. No aliases would be allowed. ( We'd need a mod to check that) Any sign-ups past the final cutoff date will not be accepted. We would then hold a draft, giving each captain a 24(maybe more, maybe less) hour period to pick a player. We would go in such an order of picking -> Captain 1, Captain 2, Captain 3, Captain 4, Captain 4, Captain 3, Captain 2, Captain 1, Captain 1, Captain 2, etc. Should a captain fail to pick within his period, he will be given an extra pick during his next selection.

 

As of now, I don't really feel confident in letting a bot run games by itself, so I'm going to ask that a referee be present at every league game. Here's how it would go: We would set up a schedule, and each team would have to agree on a time that a referee can also meet. They would also have to agree on either a 3 v 3, or 4 v 4. A referee would then start up the game. For these games, you must use either a warbird or a javelin. Switching ships would only be allowed for a 10 second period after you have died. Items will be allowed. At the end of the season, we would have the top 2 teams duel for the championship.

 

Scrimmages would be allowed. Referees do not have to be present, but referees will have powers. This is so the ref can put in a competing team, should they want to practice. Competing teams will have a priority over solo players in scrimmaging arenas. The scrimmage arena, and the league arena, would be two different places.

 

I suppose a rewards section could be worked out later, but I'll only add this part after league starts up. After all, this is where the cheating/abusing seems most likely to happen.

For the rules, see http://forums.ssgn.net/index.php?showtopic=24708

Why would these refs resist abusing their power when the previous ones couldn't?

 

Because any abusing ref will be axed immediately.

These ref powers will only be available in those arenas.

And I'll make sure that these powers don't allow them to gain personal advantage in any way.

Self-formed is interesting, but I can guarantee it will be maybe two dominating teams.

I suppose thats what the scrimmages are for, even though its not completely what you asked for. People are indeed very sparse in their times on Hyperspace. As for the adjustable numbers, I'm sticking with 3v3 and 4v4 because I feel 1v1/2v2 isn't much of a team, , and 5v5+ is simply too many people.

 

Remember, this is a very rough setup. Things will be changed when necessary.

 

On another note, we could always just take the old setup and tweak it, seen here at http://www.ssforum.net/index.php?showtopic=24091
