Season 9 Extension Week, Rosters Locked, Playoffs

Date May 21, 2011

Extension Week

In order to give teams the chance to play all their games, we have decided to add an extra week onto the end of the season. This means that all regular season games must be played by 5th June. However Week 9 Default Dates will still be given on Monday for the period of Week 9 if the game hasn’t been scheduled by then. No one will be forced by default date to play in the Extension Week, it will only be used if both teams agree to play in it.

Rosters Locked, Wildcards Disabled on Monday

As part of standard season policy, the rosters are locked and wildcards no longer count at the start of Week 9. This means that you cannot add new players to your roster, any player you wish to play who is not on your roster by Monday 23rd May will be counted as a merc with the standard merc rules applying. The rosters will remain locked until the end of the playoffs. Any wildcard used will be ignored and the original scheduled match date will still stand.

Playoffs

After the catchup week, playoff fixtures will be generated. The first batch of fixtures will be for teams that finished on equal points, to decide final positions (only where these positions are vital to decide who is promoted / relegated). After that, any playoff games from one division to another will be played, together with the Premiership playoff mini-tournament to decide the overall season winner.

Custom Map Cup – cp_grack_b9 Roundup

After a hectic evening, the winners of Wednesday’s Cup were European Spam Effect. Congratulations to them! For everyone who took part, please leave feedback on the map thread regarding what you liked/disliked about the map. These competitions are crucial in getting map makers the feedback they need to improve upon their maps.

ETF2L Ladders Temporarily Closed

Finally, we are shutting down the 6v6 and Highlander Ladders to allow coding work to be undertaken on them. Once these improvements have been completed, the ladders will be re-launched.

    Extension? Blegh. This is seriously interfering with my holiday schedule.

  6. doks said:

    yeah i mean.. the ladders are just a joke. noone plays them :/

    So.. if in a division two teams have the most points… so they are both 1st – there is no need for a playoff ?

    And what Premiership playoff mini-tournamen there is no prem :D

    New teams play them before they discover tf.wars. Also for Highlander there was a demand for a ladder to get teams pcwing but it died as the ETF2L tournament ended.

  14. Shabbaman: GoT<3 - HoT<3 said:

    @canfo: sure, but this will mean playoffs are pushed forward 1 week as well, so that’ll mean that I have to bring my system and find some stable internet in the middle of nowhere where I’ll be on holiday.
