I pointed that out. Several times. Like I said, if players want a R-like environment, just don t play those teams (or teams that make a habit of playing those teams). So it means you need to be a bit more selective about your opponent, but at least you can get games. I think that s a small pittance to pay considering how much more active both divisions could be if combined. |
Or, keep the two divisions and only let LRB teams move between them. |

I think one of the reasons why they are separate is the 4 minute time limit. U is for those that don't want it. L has the 4 minute time limit. |

Casual L games do not use it. Tournaments can be created to implement it though. So this is a total non-issue. |

Does it?
I'm pretty slow and I didn't notice.
In fact, I played a guy in [R] who was slower than me! I had to tend to the family and take a delivery of furniture and still didn't have any problems with the limit.
Anyway, two divs with movement solves that |

So who regulates the fact that people don't play against non LRB team? The coach themselves or the person running the league? Do you just do a "scouts honor" type thing or does the commish have to run through each of the teams games?

I agree for the most part. |

Again, no idea what you re talking about. Currently teams playing in L Leagues and Tournies are able to play non-LRB teams when not in a tourney. I ve never known this to be a problem. Some leagues may have specific rules against it (and would continue to do so). It s currently a non-issue. Why would that change?
If you are looking for a casual game, you have the option to play non-LRB teams or maintain your 'purity' and pass on non-LRB teams or teams that play non-LRB teams (don t want to soil yourself via second hand contact).
Simple. |

The split has also been very hard on tournaments series like the OCCS or Mully s CCC as there are no teams being trasferred in from R and getting L games to prepare or build for tournies is an exercise in futility.
Do we have some metrics on the 2 divisions? I would wager there are less games played in U and L combined than in old U. I don t see a good reason why we shouldn t recombine the divisions. |
Agreed. I still dont understand the need for differentiate the two. Seems like a waste. |

Ladder was the girl that's "beautiful on the inside". The one that no one wants to date cause she looks doggy, but once you get to know her, you realize she'll treat you good and right. |
