fatswimdudeConferences don't make sense when the scene isn't big enough to form teams around location
All you end up with is unfair scheduling + people like me getting cross-country (110+) ping every match
SpadeslootThe only real way to fix it would have been to not split the divs in the first place
Fact: There were less teams to sign up this season than there were last season.
And the decision to split that smaller number was still made.

The only reason I like the conferences is it feels like a tighter race and every match is important, games are much more impactful, or so it feels. That said, that's what makes smaller divisions great, as playoffs are more tense since you likely faced the team you'll meet in playoffs once, whereas it sucks for splitting the div in 2, since we get teams we have no past experience against, limits the rivalries and story lines

sorry I'm late
Thanks for writing again, loot!
lootEd still has yet to play a match (any day now I'm sure).
Also, not a big deal, but this isn't correct. Ed played two matches with us (on metal and snake) before his computer died. I did make that correction after you said this last week.

There are just over 20 teams in a conference and you're getting 16 matches in a season. It was pretty likely you'd get to play them at some point. Especially considering your team has yet to play a high open team.....
With that said, I'd like to echo the sentiments that I'm really not a fan of the conference-based matchups.

Im not sure what you were expecting
Did you think you were gonna get to play all the dead teams and teams full of new players while everyone else gets to play teams like mal and westbrook?
If you don't think you should go 9-7 then beating your upcoming teams of EVIL and Mario Gang shouldnt be too difficult for you

We just cut out some of the cancer (sandblast) and got our roster stabilized. Picked up kayc on roam and Rhy on med. Hopefully we can get our chemistry in order before the match.
