… helping team leaders and kids who want to create a super special stable top team with good tips and advise. Like don’t recruit a player who has switched 6-7 teams already, and don’t sign up with a new team in some high div where you would have a hard time just wining a game, but go first in a lower div then you are aiming for and win that div so you have a foundation to build a stable team.

badvice!

find a way to reward those who finish a season (with the same team they started with too, maybe?) rather than punish.

Punishing is dumb, i know a couple of teams that folded just due to the fact that its so difficult to recruit mid season.

Hi, I play this game for fun and don’t want to be punished because the lower divs are serious business.

But really, on average about 20% of the teams drop, this means more than 80% of the games got played.

1) This also means that a team, on average, only plays about 1 or 2 officials less.
2) Even more, teams that drop don’t influence the final standings of the group at all, except in the rare case in which the team dropped after completing 75% of its games (quite unlikely)

=> I don’t get why so many people get annoyed by this. The impact of the dropped teams on them is all in all pretty small. In fact, it’s only annoying for the players of the dropped teams themselves. They didn’t have the season they were hoping to get.

tl;dr Play this game for fun and don’t be too hard on your fellow tf2 players!

This http://etf2l.org/teams/7824/ team, that is in our division, has 4 games left unplayed.
If this team would finish the remainder of their games with 6-0 they would end on the #1 spot in our division (6L). Another team http://etf2l.org/teams/11617/ in our division would also get the #1 spot if they finish all games with 6-0.

Here comes the sad part. The first team made no effort in planning any matches the past few weeks, none of those four teams can get in contact with them. That second team has to play and win against them, if they want to finish #1 spot. If we just get 3 points in our last game tonight, which we will, no team can finish ahead of us unless they play and win against that inactive team. Kind of unfair huh? This should be punished instead of teams dropping early in the season.

Its counter productive to punish teams who fold as it’ll just discourage people further and also theres too many reasons as to why a team folds and who the punishment effects.

Lets get valve to hand out “ETF2L Season 10 Completed” meadals and you’d be surprised at how many more teams would wait to fold till the end of the season ;).

Not to mention the teams that would join only for the medal.
