Boards League Season 17

mar-z

Ok, we are now a 6 division competition. Due to some of the new teams being quite established I've made an attempt to balance leagues using ranking points (actually only effects a few of you). Sorry if you ended up in a different league because of it. As always we expand at most every 2 seasons to try keep things a bit settled and it was expansion season with teams available.

Normal rules apply, 4 for a win. 2 for a draw, 0 for a loss, bonus points for 4 trys in a game and for losing by < 7 points. Non-acceptance of fixtures results in a 2 point deduction and a frown a disapproval from yours truly. 2 teams get promotion and 2 teams relegated and you get trophies for the top 3 in each division. 14 league games and you play each team home and away and the comp runs from week 1 to 14.

Will put up all round 1 fixtures now and will work on the rest during the week. As always help is welcome and encouraged!

As I said in the opening post sorry for the division change. I used rankings when team needed to be moved around (which I know isn't exactly ideal and maybe not 100% fair).

With the new teams added in the divisions all look a lot tougher as some fairly strong new teams are there (Actually just looked through the teams in div 5 and how in the hell are the Jacks on such a low ranking for me to have put them there). Due to the changes the two top teams from div 5 last year didn't get promoted which isn't really fair on them either.

As always if someone has a fairer way to do it they are welcome to implement/discuss it. I can make them admins in the comp easily enough and it wouldn't annoy me at all. I know you said you'd get on with it westman so this isn't specifically aimed at you, I'm not 100% pleased with the balance in some of the lower leagues myself. My only other option (that I could think of) was to change the leagues on a more touchy-feely I think this team deserves to be here basis and I figured that would be an absolute mess to implement (and to be able to justify to the rest of you). As I said I'm not 100% with the result myself so am interested in others ideas.

As for I C B I A Lawfirm, I had trouble searching for them myself and had to use the team id no.

Yeah it's true, now we're going to expect you to dominate

My thesis is due around Christmas, so afterwards I was thinking of starting a lil Boards Cup magazine, just because I'm missing trawling through stats on BR as if I was an actual journo at a match

TheJims

sounds cool! in that case i must actually show a proper interest this year ! no more fielding the default team 12 out of the 14 weeks :pac:

corny

Looks like i get a walkover for the first two fixtures. Get accepting!

I've mailed all non accepting teams just there.

I reminded my opponents and they accepted earlier, its easy to forget to check fixtures

Whoops! Knew there was something I meant to do.

Also, going on meant I got a report of a new lad on the transfer market. First acceptable guy I've seen in months. Very excited
