This division is based on football divisional systems.
Due to this being a competitive league, do not use this division to play amongst a close group of friends. The accepted benchmark for this division is 1 game per round (two week period) played versus the same team. If you want to play games among a close group of friends, create teams in the L division.
The rules for Faction are as follows:

News: The faction division has gone through a number of changes to reduce the possibility of "cartels" dominating the division. Most of you have seen the discussions, or heard of it so I will not go into details in this news posting.
Because of the extensive changes done, all teams have been inactivated from F and coaches who wish to participate will have to reactivate the team they wish to use.
The new rules for the faction division are as follows:
Note that this may vary somewhat due to retired teams.
Do you get points for playing against other teams than the "scoring" marked opponents? No. Only those will give you points.
No, you still get the same points as before. 31 points for a win, 11 for a tie, 6 for a loss and +/- 1 per TD for/against. Minimum of 1 point, and only 1 point if you concede.
What teams will be promoted at the end of this first round? The ordering is as follows: 1. Teams with at least 4 games are on top. 2. Teams with at least 1 game gets places after the first group. 3. Team Rating sets the order within each group. 4. If there's still a tie, a random roll is made.
There are 90 promotion spots for grabs for this first round. The top 20 go straight to F1, teams 21-50 go to F2 and teams 51-90 go to F3. Teams without games are never promoted.
When does the first round with this new system end? November 12th.
Not yet. This is a feature that will be available shortly though. You will be able to activate a new team if your currently active team has not played any matches during the current round. Note that this will take your currently active team away from the Factions, and if you at a later time reactivate it, it will start in FQ again.
Faction has its own forum, with a Faction 1 records list. Faction games are not ranked.
