Would stop the top teams thumping the bottom teams every set, can make it the same length by playing each other twice.

Obviously you get new clans straight into div 2 but after a season they go if they are a top team. So would not be as poop for the lower teams that way and more of a contest for them.
But we already know from past experience that there's almost always going to be a very good clan in Div 2 because they're new. So the teams still get thumped lol.

Also, with 1 division the bottom clans would only get thumped in about 3 or 4 fixtures out of 10, when they play the good teams. They're still playing other clans as well.

If you dont want to join the season because you wont get points for LOSING then that is fair enough, that would also mean you don't want to join the FBL then. Not going to get held to ransom by a team because i won't implement an idea which i think is stupid.

Two divisions is an idea but i think many like the play everyone once thing now. If we have 16 clans at one point then two divisions would more than likely be done. Two divisions with un-even numbers is annoying.

Just looking and they the table hant been updated but pds have completed the last game.
We won 3 drew 1 but bms only won 2 but are 2 places higher than us. One of the teams we beat were bms yet they are 2 places above us?
Maybe a change to the points could be in need?
when similar happened in FBL at the top of the table there was a big thing made about it. Yet i suppose as its towards the bottom it doesnt matter in most folks minds?
I know this will get ignored or mocked as all my posts do on here but oh well something to do during the england moldova game lol.

Sets are only updated to the league table when all games have been played by all teams or the deadline is over (unless there is defaults it can take a few days). Everyone knows this.

Your place on the table is determined by the points you have accumulated through the season and then bonuses on top of that.

Looking at the table BM have been far more superior in the frames they have won, they have also played one game more game than most and don't have a game in this set.

I am aware, if you read my post you'd see that we had played our last game. Thought it was obvious that I did the maths ;).
Not complaining just saying we won more so in most minds we were stronger.
Laughed at your far more superior in frames comment lol.
Could say a few things but don't want to start a silly clan argument.
As its the discussion thread I was just bringing it up.
If you and the rest don't want to change it for next season cool beans.
Starting to think whatever I suggest gets shot down regardless of what I say lmao.

"cant run a clan on 9 players i feel "

Seb is one of the most experienced captains on this site to date, he knows what he is doing and if it is becoming a struggle then he should know to message me as i would rather bend a rule so a clan would not fold.

I await the biased comments now about a rule bend despite the fact it could save a clan and possibly a second to see out this season.

also (without the risk of causing another argument (not for Jay as he defended our clan)) i believe jooodles ran Vikings with 8 or 9 players so it can be done.

Also we won't be folding (for all those wondering). We have ran clans for years and will keep going until me and seb are no longer able to sign snooker players

We had a couple fixtures where we had 9 or 10 and had one of the lowest defaults this season (o in fcl 1 in fbl) As long as you have 8 generally active you should be fine.
Though could do with some more.
Dont poach off us though lol

Even with the 20 point bonus for winning that has been introduced to try and stop one clan who wins all their games winning the league and not ending up second. If UT had beat professionals 61-59 in that game, professionals would have still pipped UT to the title so even with a 20 point bonus it is not guaranteed just a lot less likely, so please do not reduce it whatever happens

Regarding the individual league, i have decided that it will be a trial period for it (due to past games not getting done) So for that reason it is going to be 16 places in each type and you can only join the one type. (This will change in season 22 if it is a success)

This being said i have worked out that there is going to be four stages. Group, Quarters, Semi and then the final. This works out in favour if the league can have five fixture sets or possibly even six.

If the league has five/six sets then i am going to make the group stage either three or four weeks deadline as it will be larger and you will have a few games to play in it. More to come soon with formats and stuff.

I do have an idea for Jay if his idea doesn't work (hope it does though).

How about sort of like a World Cup in each type. Have 5 or 6 players, 2 groups so that is 12 players.

Top 4 of each advance to Quarter Finals.

Or 4 groups of 4 in each if your sticking with 16 players in each.

Top 2 of each advance to Quarter Finals.

about 3-4 weeks to play those.

then knockouts which could be 1 or 2 weeks per game depending on the schedule

Frames for Group Stage could be 6 so draws are allowed then Best of 7, 9, 11 or something for knockouts

No it won't be included as it has never been a game type that is in FCL. Although i am sure Jema wants to do a similar thing with the FBL and more than likely straight will be there.

I am hoping to start the sign ups on this tomorrow maybe.

Good to see all the individual leagues filling up in 1 day, looking forward to the format. I think it will be a lot better this way than previous seasons

Yeah only problem is mate, i ain't had much time to try and think of a decent format yet. I have drawn up all the groups now and will probably have them on website sometime in the next few days i hope. Thanks to chisisidovev for helping choose the random numbers allocated to the players.

I will say this GROUP D (Death) has claimed two groups of death from my point of view. Should be very interesting.
