Spring Leage WEEK 5

[ddaypunk06]

Here are that weeks matchups:

Round 1:
Vic and Rios
Adam and Delso
Alex and jess

Round 2:
Vic and Delso
Alex and Adam
Rios and Jess

Week 6 will be up after next week.

If you can not make your match and you must forfeit, both players will receive the points (2) for a 750 point draw. No matter who can support the 750. This is to spur competition within the lower rankings that are left. top of the ladder is pretty set...thanks adam ...we love you still lol.

All right then, week 6 is a given? I mean four out of six of our competitors have anywhere from 4 to 5 games to make up in three weeks. With people's schedules being what they are do you seriously think people are going to end up finishing another 2?

We forfeit if the games are not made up by when? Next week, or the end of the league? I ask because I won't be able to get together with Vic till next weekend, and Delso will be out of town... Just let me know.

I think the rule should be "Finish your games by July 11th, the end of the league. Try to play them in order if you can - if not, wing it."

The spring league has been a misfire with everyone's schedules being so erratic. I say we just try to finish this as painlessly as possible.

I think that our current predicament underlines the importance of playing our games in a timely manner for the Summer Rampage. We can now see how big a problem backlogging games can be. I think we should all keep this in mind for the Summer League, so we can avoid a repeated misfire. I don't think that harsh "if you don't play- you forfit" rules are really necessary, as they obviously hurt some people more than others.
However, I think that we need to iron out our problems in a timely manner on a per game basis. FOr instance, if it looks like you might not get a game in with someone anytime soon, just agree to a draw and continue march. We shouldn't have to "force" one another to do that kind of thing, we should just be mindful of how our gaming might impact everyone elses experience.
I really enjoy playing in the Warmachine/Hordes league, and I want to make sure we retain all of our players and add more to future seasons. The league shouldn't become a chore, with piles of games we "have" to make up and frustrating penalty rules. It should be fun.
Oh, and I am playing Protectorate of Menoth for the Summer Rampage, so nobody will have to contend with Goreshade or Bane Knights for a while (at least until Jess picks them up, or Ian starts playing in the fall...)

HUZZAH FOR MENOTH!!! PURGE THE UNBELIEVERS OR SOME SUCH RELIGIOUS BANTER!!!

Also adams idea for summer rampage is good though because I am a raging a-hole I like the

"if you don't play- you forfit" rules

but thats just me.
