New League Rules

[Poison Ink]

After discussion in this thread -> http://forums.ssgn.net/index.php?showtopic=24625&st=20

I have decided to post the rules for the new league. Feel free to tell me if anything should be changed.

Credits to anyone in that thread who positively influenced this.

 

Squad Dueling League

 

TEAMS:

• Only one alias may play for the league.
  
• Have a maximum of 6, and a minimum of 4.
  
• Have a squad name, and a squad leader.
  
• The leader may assign assistants.
  
• The leader/assistants will have the power to ready their team to the referee.
  

REFEREES:

• Will be able to Control Frequencies so they can put teams in order
  
• Will begin the match
  
• Will make sure nothing fishy happens
  

ARENA:

• Namp's League Map
  
• Gduel
  
• Any New map made can be considered.(Mapmakers, start your DCME!)
  

MATCHES:

• Will be 4v4.
  
• Should the leaders/assistants agree, you may 2v2 or 3v3.
  
• Will follow a ladder.
  

BANNED:

• 5,000,000 Alien Techs : Baryon, Adamantine, Temporal
  
• Consumables (Repels, Bursts, Thors, Portals, Decoys, Rockets, Bricks)
  

RULES:

• Five deaths = Spec 3 deaths = Spec. Last team standing wins. Best of 3 matches.
  
• Ship changing is allowed only after a death.
  
• Substitutions may only be made between rounds.
  
• Lag Specs and Disconnections are an elimination for that round.
  
• 10 minutes is the current time limit. If time runs out, the team with the most remaning lives wins. Draw = NC
  
• Use common sense. If an obvious rule isn't stated here, that doesn't mean you can break it. Sympathy won't be shown.
  

REWARDS:

• Winning participants will receive 50k
  
• Losing participants will receive 10k
  
• Winning the entire ladder will have a grand prize

Selected items should be allowed

Not namp's map

Take out any capacity items

3 death spec

Instead of ladder go with preliminary then brackets

I still propose 1-death spec for convenience's sake. I already explained in the "Reviving League" thread as to why. It's standard gduel protocol, after all. My idea was to use standard dueling rules in a ladder; that way, we could run a league regardless of whether or not we're given staff backing or mod powers. Your current outline (the 5 deaths part) requires a ref with mod powers or a new bot.

 

By keeping rules simple, we can focus on advertising and scheduling. If you want to make this work, gauge the population's interest, and figure out how you'll fit (and keep) everything together. Remember that a handful of groups is sufficient so long as they're dedicated. I suggest you start by posting a schedule.

 

Anyway.. I'll draft my own outline once I get the time. I wouldn't mind trying my hand at running a simple league. Brain has allowed players to Paypal donations in for HSD. I would gladly pitch in fifteen or so dollars for grand HSD prize.

Or just change the spawn coordinates to random on a DECENT MAP and have 3 deaths spec which is already built into the game.

 

It doesn't take a genius to run I don't get why you people keep failing.

BZAP - Referees are for oversight. You've seen Hyperspace, and the characters in it. Unfortunately, it is very hard to trust some of them to play fairly.

I did plan to run a number of polls to gauge player interest in certain aspects of the game.

When you do run your own outline, I think we'll both have to agree on one. Having two of the same league is silly.

Not a single person has volunteered to make a "Decent Map"

Perhaps you could?

Definitely an option. But seeing how we can't even get duelbox restored (despite requests), I wonder how long that'd take. I propose we work with what we have.

should be wb, jav, and maybe the shark if they nerf it to no be so overpowered type of league

6 minutes seems a bit short to me. That would only work for remarkably unfair teams.

Fair teams could well take 6 minutes without insane running skillz and such (Which I assume you are trying to prevent with this rule).
