Silver_Rain_007:

Well, thank you very much. I’m going to respond to your queries in order.

1.) I am thinking in the future, I will announce FF twists in advance, maybe Wednesday morning. My wife (to whom I owe much) raised a similar concern with me, and hearing you say that I think there is something to be said for that concern, especially since most people didn’t sign up this week until Wednesday anyway.

2.) I certainly understand your concern about point totals and league standings. I want to have a system that encourages people to play as much as possible and having a point system, standings type mechanism seems like an effective way to do that. I’d certainly look at giving less points out or something, but I don’t want a league event to be for nothing either… I’m sure there’s a happy medium somewhere and I am always open to input from league members as to things we can do differently.

3.) Well, the WWL is broken down into seasons. I originally thought that each season would last about 3 months and then we’ll reset the standings. Every season should end with a large open tournament, available to anyone who wants to sign up, not just league members, but I don’t think we’ll do that in the first season because I really should have put that out there sooner, and I don’t know how well the admins would take to me posting an HDR online tournament in their forums without any prizes… or for that matter who many people would sign up. I figure this season will end probably the 2nd or 3rd week of December, give people a couple weeks off, if they want (or if they don’t, we’ll just start anew) and then come back the first week of January with Season 2, and speaking of Season 2, there are adjustments being made and I think people will definitely like some of our future changes.

4.) Pool Play was designed from the beginning to be random. I mean there are going to be top players who it doesn’t matter who their competition is, but for alot of us other players who aren’t quite EVO top 8 material but in comparison the other 90% of HDR’s competition pretty good, it provides a sense of drama, “Will I qualify this week?”. I would certainly look into having special events for the top players, maybe like a Champion’s pool week. If I were to do that though, I’d announce that pretty far in advance because we’d want to record as many of those matches as possible for the HDR Community at large. The other thing I would consider doing would be running two tournaments one for top qualifiers for max points and then maybe another tournament for those who maybe just missed or something. Some weeks I’d like to run tournaments for top 16 players and other things like that, its just with my current technological restrictions (AKA using Xbox Live to run tournaments) that’s difficult and I found out my new laptop is on backorder and might not show up for another week a half… But I think we are going to move to a chat room type functionality so that people can play their match, go to the chat room, report their results and I can announce the matchups there.

5.) We have a break spot, you want it you got it. Just announce your team, and remember your main has to be the last character.

6.) I value everyone’s input, I NEED everyone’s input. This league has grown far beyond my imagination. We have 34 players playing 258 matches on Monday… in North America alone! When you add in the WWL HDR EU which is another 134 matches, that’s 392 matches that are being organized via the WWL. That doesn’t even include the tournament matches or Freaky Friday which pushes the total well over 400 matches organized in a week. This wouldn’t happen without the wonderful ideas that you have put forth, so I hope that not just you, but everyone would bring their concerns forward, if we can address them, we will, if not I’ll try to explain why, but this is a place where everyone’s opinion is valued and I appreciate you bringing your concerns forward, it will only help make a better league in the future!**

EDIT: 9:51 A.M. EST: And I’m going to open up Freaky Friday signups I guess until 2:00 EST today, that’s 11:00 PST. I have no problem redoing the pools for signups, but that’s the CUTOFF!**

I’m in for tonight then.

TEAM SLOWPOKE: Zangief/Vega/Dhalsim

I will respond to your comments later. I’m currently busy at work.

OMG, I had the 666th post… on my own thread… I’m in trouble…

I_AAC · October 9, 2009, 10:11pm

power of Christ compels you!!

zass · October 9, 2009, 10:34pm

i want to join this! I don’t know if I have a main though, lol. My team can be dictator/claw/chun li

Silver_Rain_007 · October 9, 2009, 10:35pm

… You didn’t come to pool play last week… But we do have a BREAK…

Alright you are in, but only because at our annual WWL meeting you’ll cosplay Chun-Li for everyone :lol:

zass · October 9, 2009, 10:37pm

I’m sorry sliver, yes I didn’t go to pool play. It’s because my life has been sucked in by Aion. I don’t play street fighter anymore, all I do is gather aether in Aion all day. And I’m only lvl 22 lol.

For the cosplay I have ST outfit and SFA outfit, which do you prefer?

Silver_Rain_007 · October 9, 2009, 10:38pm

… Until they come out with World of Starcraft, or until SWTOR comes out… there’s no reason to play MMOs… attitude like that will just get you banned :lovin:

We’ll let the league decide. My guess would be ST since this is HDR, but we’ll have a vote :party:

damdai · October 9, 2009, 10:41pm

Or as the programmer would say, the power of Christ compiles you!

alex6x6x6 · October 9, 2009, 10:46pm

Post 666 was supposed to be ME… dammit.

Anyway, my team is as follows:

Hawk/Dee Jay/Honda

JigglyNorris · October 9, 2009, 11:51pm
