Not saying it isn't, but there's a subforum specifically for it, there's no reason not to use it.

brickhlHueyLewisAre you guys dead? Why are you dead?
The team was made on the consensus that we were going to try our best and win. The two weeks leading up to the season and the first week of the season we're fine. People were making scrims and matches, everyone was having fun. During Gullywash we started having people be more inactive. Players leaving scrims due to other plans with just 5 minutes of notice or zero notice at all. Forcing myself and the rest of the team to find ringers. Either we couldn't find decent replacements or anyone at all. So when we did scrim, those who showed up would start to get frustrated that we weren't playing at our potential due to 3-4 ringers a night.

It's one thing if your team willingly goes into the season knowing that you won't be scrimming much or trying and under-performing and another if your team goes into the season thinking it'll be a serious season for them with not just hopes of placement but actually winning. The starters that were showing up consistently were getting frustrated with the situation. We knew at least 1 key starter would miss a lot, that being muma, some others that we picked up we weren't expecting as they were targeted purely because they had always been committed in the past and were to continue to be so. The team was no longer having fun and though we did agree to continue one more week to see if we could fix out problems both muma and yosh decided it was best to just leave before we all hated each other.

Well I guess the only good news out of this is it really ups the importance of the Ginyu - $$ match.

It should be known that you NEVER bet against Huey Lewis on cp_steel.

In all seriousness, I'm sorry to hear they had roster issues. But i will say this loss was in the threads of destiny long before the roster issues were created.

The Round Robin will live, however with teams being moved around (IFA), and teams folding; on the surface, it makes it appear the Round Robin isn't a stable or viable way forward in Plat.
What we see in threads isn't the entire picture. Unfortunately, some have concluded a couple minor ailments mean that the Round Robin should be scrapped at the end of this season. However, it's going to take more than one season to know if this is the right decision for Plat.

What are you talking about? Only one team has folded and it was mine and it had nothing to do with the Round Robin system. Our team would have folded even if there were 14 teams in Platinum instead of 10. The situation with IFA was UGC's fault and UGC has to take responsibility for that, they cannot pin that on the Round Robin when both IFA and the Admins agreed to move up instead of Buffalo. The system is fine and we're seeing the benefits of it by previous and future teams not being negatively affected by bye weeks / teams disbanding.

Teams have moved up and down in the past without the Round Robin, teams have died in the past without the Round Robin. Some things you can't change, how these events effect the league can be changed though. The Round Robin has brought more positives to Platinum and the seeding than it ever has before. Have I also mentioned that it's the most fair and just system UGC has implemented?
