Sorry, not going to happen. I said I don't care for CR, but I do care about playing games when I want to. WHEN Unranked has enough people, I'll consider switching over.

I never said I disliked Ranked. So no, I won't blame myself for anything.


It's coaches like you that make Unranked wither. I don't mean to offend you personally; I have recently run into really many "it's easy to play ranked, won't even bother to try out anything else..." -coaches.

I have tried Unranked, you idiot.

Look at how many Unranked teams I have, did I ever say I never tried it?

It's people like you that make me sick, assume everything and accuse.

Its not fair to say coaches like anyone are responsible for Unranked withering. Divisions die out, it happens. Don't get me wrong i still play unranked but i don't think its so fair we should have to transfer to unranked without any sort of option. There really arent many high tr teams to play (that appear regularly), certainly not over tr 260.

I was referring to myself changing to Unranked before it has the numbers Ranked has. I guess that wasn't obvious, but hey, looks like you're doing some assuming as well.

makes better sense that way. But since it was proposed her and there in R forum that all R teams should be moved in Open, it explains the misunderstanding.

Anyway, so me and Khar' jkust make you sick......

5 Ranked slots is more than enough. No reason to change that.

And it ain't that hard to get games in unranked (true it requires a bit more patience above tr 200 sometimes).
I love unranked, cos it gives me the oppurtunity to play all sort of crazy matchups i wouldn't play in ranked and I don't care when i get a dicerape there.
Been playing in unranked for quite a long time now (my music lovers have played 130+ games in unranked), and if anything, unranked has gotten more popular. Half a year ago, it was a lot harder of finding games there.

Anyway, Unranked is at least as fun as ranked, and it's a lot more chill imo.
So, transfer teams to unranked and start playing there, you'll see it's not hard to find games there.
The more the merrier !

Unranked seems to have a pretty good selection of teams to play against. However, I can't really comment on the chances of finding some of the super high TR games, as I neither enjoy nor play them.

Yes that much should be obvious regarding the majority of your former posts Razz You sort of remind me of Cato, instead of Carthage here it's: "high TR teams must be razed"

Nah, other people are free to play them if they wish - sure, the game wasn't really designed for it, but one of the great things about Fumbbl is that people can play the game however they enjoy it most.

They just won't get much sympathy from me when problems inevitably crop up. Razz

In this case, the problem seems to be that he has some very high TR teams that he can't bear to get rid of, but that are also keeping him from experimenting with new teams. He doesn't want to play with them constantly, but would like them to get an occasional game.

There are a couple of ways to solve this within the current division structure. The best solution here seems to be a transfer to ranked in order to join a high TR tourney - Grudge League or Orca-Cola should work. Another solution would be to leave them in Ranked, but to create the new teams in U. I see plenty of low TR teams in U on gamefinder, so finding a match shouldn't be a problem.

As the Grudge League main organiser, I'd like to remind everyone we only accept TR 100 [U] teams.
