The Cogs - Season 2 Rules and Format

<< < (9/26) > >>

Surette:
Not sure where you got that, but the Cogs system has remained the same for a while now.

N-Sunderland:
I'm sorry Ofi, but the rules clearly state:


--- Quote ---The second half will be first come first serve newcomer round robin for the remaining slots on the third cog. In the event of a full roster, there will be one more newcomer team than slots. For instance, if there are two slots available for newcomer teams, three newcomer teams will be permitted to participate in Week 0.

--- End quote ---

That section hasn't been updated since the thread was posted.

Ofiach:
Well i was obviously fed alot of lines of bull in steam and skype discussions.

Swallox:
From the rules thread
"Week 0
Week 0 consists of two round robin events to seed the five slots (#3a - #3e) on the Upcomer’s Cog.

The first of these round robins will feature the teams from the Week 9 Quarter Finals placed against each other for slots #3a, #3c and #3b.  In the event that one or more of the quarter-finalists are unwilling to participate, an additional team will be added to the Newcomer’s robin.

The second half will be first come first serve newcomer round robin for the remaining slots on the third cog. In the event of a full roster, there will be one more newcomer team than slots. For instance, if there are two slots available for newcomer teams, three newcomer teams will be permitted to participate in Week 0."

From the brackets thread
"Week 0 features two distinct phases to populate the third Cog on the board, the Upcomer's Cog. Six teams, three Season 1 veterans and three newcomer teams, face off within their respective groups for control over one of the five spots on the Upcomer's Cog. So who's playing? Let's take a look."


There is no mention of the Newcomer arrangements in the Announcement thread.


Again: I don't know where you're getting your information, but the rules thread (The first season 2 thread to go up) clearly states that at most, six newcomer teams would get to participate in Week 0... And even then, only if all three Season 1 seeded teams decided to drop.

I understand your frustration, but the newcomer's side of week 0 has been clear from the start.

N-Sunderland:
I wouldn't have said this before, but it's getting ridiculous.

Something needs to be done about sniping matches. I have no problem with sniping itself, but I have a huge problem with matches being 3-2 after an hour. Every other team waiting to play has to sit through that, and it's the middle of the night for some of those people. It's not good to watch, it's not good for the teams waiting, and even the teams playing get bored (but still continue doing it for some inexplicable reason).
