The 2nd National Online League of Season 6

<< < (6/24) > >>

fandango:
I would like to opt for B..

My only worry though is that towards the latter part of the season with teams who are mid table and below are going to lose interest and the numbers are going to drop off.
Personally if I was in one of these teams I would play every game regardless of position, but it"s hard to keep everyone focused if they realise they have 0% chance..
Dunno if I"m complicating matters but just a thought, what about if when the season is 50% completed the teams are split into 2 separate leagues?  So if there was say 50 teams competing the top 25 teams then form a new league and play on to the end of season, and bottom 25 do the same.. Or you could even then seed the teams to re draw, but I don"t know if this would complicate it to much.. I guess this idea is solely dependant on what added prizes APAT had in mind from the start? As you would have to have two lots of added prizes, or then have a playoff between the top two teams from each league for the single prize..

I like B best.

You could also have an ongoing players market for any new players wanting to join. Once it has 4 players a new team can be formed with the option of adding 2 more players. Missing the first few games would not be an issue in a league over 15 weeks but perhaps the new teams could have some points to kickstart if they join late?

I would also like to see the buyin dropped to 5 euros if plan B is chosen. In a team with only 6 players, points will be essential so it makes sense to register and blind away if you cant play. I wouldn"t mind doing this so much for a fiver but would be reluctant to throw a tenner away.

Great points from everyone so its time for my say,
Personally if A gets dropped then Apat will lose the numbers over time and eventually it could turn out to be a backward step for the forum. You have to keep the regions to keep the interest internationally.

I loved the national online cup so keep this in between the seasons to keep interest. It goes to show that even though my East Mids team came 8th in the National league we did manage to get to the final of the online cup.

I think a possible solution would be either go back to a two league format with relegation and promotion OR split the league into a champions/europa league format to make it fair to the bottom half of the teams but with obviously bigger prizes for the top league.

so i agree with A..B and hopefully with my solution C  :-\

ps, MANY THANKS GINA FOR YOUR LOYALTY TO THE EAST MIDLANDS TEAM  ;)
