yeah ill do 1st one, im looking to set up fixtures differently too so you can copy and paste into the forum.

I'll help run the cup if ya want mate?

players should get random game types drawn for cup methinks

since there will probably be no new site i will look to take team entries (1 week period should be enough) then i can do profile checks and can get started at start of november.

can do if you like mate, would mean less work for me too, although i would still have to update results unless i give you my details over PM.

I could just control the draw, take in results. Then give to you so you can just post as and when you need to.

The Cup would mean an extra thread and captains would need to make sure the players know that this particular game is a Cup match so they don't get mixed up.

Before i forget here is a message i posted on new forum about the Log In System:

We may have a problem regarding defaults next season as the log in system may be taken away for reasons i cannot share with you so just in case we need to think of new ways to do defaults

the only thing i can suggest is me (and you if you like but optional) check the profiles of each of the members of the clan league and note down which days they log in.

its not highly accurate but maybe the only way to go if the log in system is taken away.

It is more than likely we won't get the new log in system straight away if we do get it but just in case.

I doubt i'd have the patience to check umpteen peoples profiles every day.

It should just be down on overall effort imo.

Messages sent to and from players trying to organise and get the game done.

If your online and your not communicating or attempting to communicate with your opponent than as far as i'm concerned your not doing anything to try and get the game done.

My opinion.

I will post fixtures like this next season:

The Untouchables 0 vs 0 Dollars and Cents

Centured Line - Arcade

budweiser 0 vs destiny 0

hustlerrrrrr 0 vs torres 0

Centured Line - Regular

mooney 0 vs virt_slayer 0

nicko 0 vs dgeneratio 0

Centured Line - Original

chase475 0 vs arpeggi 0

pirate_steve 0 vs whocares8x8 0

Centured Line - Carom

jaaaames 0 vs virtuoso147_ 0

2hot2handle 0 vs de_fisherman 0

On the Forum the Member tags will show so you can copy and paste into forum.

games completed will be in italics and member tags disappear

i hear that the following would be procedure for ties in cup fixtures:

The team that won most matches from that fixture goes through. If the same number of matches were won, captains play 1 frame of arcade, regular, original and carom. if thats tied 1 random game will be generated to be deciding frame.

or each team could nominate 1 person to play the fixture and do it the same way.

I would opt for the second option here (that teams nominate a player to play the games). this way, we can ensure that both sides have their best player playing (also generates interest).

regarding potential new defaults system:
i think since we have set up a default team, we can determine fairly objectively who made the most effort. Messages will be important. since a variety of clans will be represented, no one will gain an unfair advantage.

yeah if the log in system goes, messaging will be VERY important although it is important already.

due to the feedback, nominating 1 player to play tie break will be included in the rules.

correct. i do think that it will not create too much of a problem, because the members of the default team will collectively know how active each player is (at least well enough to give result)

sounds good to me,good ideas james and moons
