nata run's the MGE server for af. pm him about it.

As mention in the queries thread, I will be opening a poll to let you guys decide which system you would prefer for AFL5. Please provide some points if you have them as to why you support either system.

Hey all, I'll be putting all these points into consideration when it comes to selecting the number of divisions that are going to be played. Right now it will be tentatively be a 2 division system until I see the number of teams registered after registration closure.

Nope. Only team registration. We don't do solo registration.

1 team per division

Another point to raise is the loopholes in the rulings that we were not aware of. It was unfortunate that the loopholes were raised during the duration of the event. But now, quite a few of the players are aware of such loopholes, and hopefully it can be solved in future Saxton Hale Highlander events. Overall, I thank all the teams who have participated in the event one way or another and the staff who helped out when things were not going too smoothly. May there be more events be planned for the community whether by us or any other community sites. That is what matters the most important, events the community can enjoy.

this is what happens when you bail on your team last minute and end up having subs to play for your team.

You can always register and schedule the match after the 1st. Besides, if you read the rules, one week's grace is given if both teams agree to a match postponement.

Team Registration, basically you 1)get picked up by a current team that's around or 2)form your own scrim team.

The following reasons as to why I picked a 3 division system might not really make sense cause there are some things I just can't put into words, so I'll try my best to explain. My initial decision was on the basis of trying to be fair to teams so that they can face teams of equal or close to equal skill levels. I did have thoughts on whether this might fragment the community (I'm assuming most players who pointed this out, are referring to the SG/MY community) further, but at the same time I had to look outside the SEA (or rather SG/MY) region on whether there are any other teams in KR/JP/TW/HK that could possibly have similiar skills levels at Div2/Div3 standards as well. The next reason as to why I also decided on this was the promotion/relegation system which could be incorporated in future AFL seasons if the division sizes were smaller. This would encourage teams to work harder to get yourself promoted to get to the top, and for the higher division teams to work even harder in preventing themselves from being relegated. It is pretty much like how football leagues run, except without the money. But of course, since this was raised early which I'm glad it did, I have decided to open a public poll to decide on this matter. Since AsiaFortress League is a league for the Asian community, it would be fitting that the Asian community decide whether or not they would prefer a 2 division system or a 3 division system since you guys are the one participating in it. This is also because, I myself worry about the fragmentation problem which was raised amongst some of you, which was not really brought to my attention during the decision making. So therefore, please visit this link to decide whether your are with the 3 division idea or against the 3 division idea. It would also be great if you guys can give your opinion on why you picked this, and not say "^" or "cause xxxx said so".

to add on nata's point on division separation, we will also take into account team experience and individual member's experience in the scrim scene if there are any point of contention when it comes to adjusting the team's divisional status. This is in the case that there is an over-subscription in the stated division in the registration.

how are what separated?

SandvichFort is holding a prophunt event sometime after the AsiaFortress Halloween Saxton Highlander event. more details can be found @ sandvichfort.com

Day 1 is over and the results are as follows! For the timings, please refer to the previous schedule thread! http://images.challonge.com/afshhh.png[/img] Day 1 is over There were an unfortunate withdrawal by 2 teams due to personal reasons. There was also an mismanagement when it came to spectators, leading to spectators in the games and I apologies on behalf of the team who ran the event. Also, it was found that the time attack format of the event was not good as teams end up playing more like a prophunt event instead. Therefore, for Day 2, the format will be changed to the most damage done to saxton before the team gets wiped will win the round, instead of the time attack format! Other than this change, the rest of the tournament runs pretty much the same way. I apologies again on behalf of the event team, on those who feels that this sudden change of win format is unfair to your team. So onto the Day 2 competition Schedule!
