I like the idea ... just hope that a top team does not move into my division after SD Blitzkrieg moves up to the new RZA Super Elite Top Global Best of the Best League

Making a former League 1.1 Team start in League 3.x would be devastating and absolutely bad i think!

Not only for the changing team but even much much more for those human teams just having started in 3.x. As i am a late starter i can surely say that this situation (if it had been the case) might have drawn me away from the game completely in the first 2 weeks, so i am glad this wasn't the case. Don't give the new players this absolutely unfair matchup in their league (!), or else this game will drain out of human players in the future.

Btw. could the bot-flush be used for that as well. The changing team gets one of the highest spots available, regarding their former league class of course.

Absolute rubbish.

No team would be "kicked out because someone wants to change leagues"..... the whole idea is that the swap scheduler matches swap requests and therefore only moves teams that have requested to change leagues.

As for "teams changing should start in the lowest league" ..... this makes no sense whatsoever, it would simply result in 1.1 teams with 65%/70% overall ratings being moved to 3.1/3.2/3.3/3.4 .... so how would a newly formed team (with a 40% rating) be expected to compete with a former 1.1 team who has been 'relegated' to 3.x ???.


Thank you for clarifying the point and giving an explanation. However, it might be better to avoid calling something absolute rubbish. some of us do not have the length of experience that you do nor understand all the nuances of the game.

I quote from a separate topic:

I'll weigh in as a newbie:
In any event, since were on the subject of wanting to keep new players, I can tell you jumping on each others' backs and putting someone else's post down in a harsh manner isn't a way to encourage new players in staying.


Totally agree. If someone wants to disagree with someone else or to say that the response is incorrect/off the point then they can at least have the decency to be polite. Rudeness is the surest way to lose new players.

Sorry but that's "rubbish" again, this has nothing to do with experience or knowledge of the game, it has to do with reading the OP too quickly or not understanding it... If you can't take the time to read the OP and understand it you shouldn't take the time to post, or if you post ask for clarification, don't state things that are completely wrong like "This prevents other teams being kicked out because someone wants to change leagues." which had not been suggested at all.

If you don't want the word rubbish being used to describe your posts think more before posting and it won't happen...

The meaning of the original post has since been clarified. However, until it was i did not know that I did not understand the original intention.

Is it harder to write "You have misunderstood the post" than it is to write "Rubbish" or "Absolute Rubbish"?

I'll return the question to you, is it harder to write "I don't really understand this or that, please clarify" than it is to make some wrong assumptions and actually type something that has nothing to do with the OP?

I think Captain Jack and co meant that if you change league you start over ie you lose your team and start in 3.3 league with a new team

again this would be pointless and could cause people to leave

I think the discussion has become pointless and off topic. So let's drop it.
