As a group of 5 league runners you all came to the agreement or the votes came to having 2 killer games per set right?

Now that was voting in ya gotta keep it or people will moan about other things and you will change them aswell


That's not true dan . This was always going to arise again as people had problems without the season even starting so they were always going to have problems during the season also.

I really do want us to keep it as is due to the fact we as a team decided on that.

If people had problems with this why vote in favour of 2 killer games per set *confused.com*

again, there is no reason for this discussion really at this point. Less than 1 week has been played? Why is everyone assuming it won't work?
Give it a try at least.
And yeah, league runners decide things as a team. Going against it as a league runner really undermines the running as a team idea...

I dont care what the fixture set looks like, i get told by my captian who ive got to play then i arrange my games.

If teams cant get people online at the same time there is something wrong really as you joined a TEAM game not an individual game.

If my captain/vice captain needs me on at a certian time to play a killer game i will be there as they said probs because i aint got a life (got there before anyone could say that)

I have always been against it though, the rest knew this. I got out voted on it and that was the end of it really. I may not agree with it but i have still been doing what i am meant to do within the league.

Jay at the end of the day mate, i was against it as well. However, you're sort of going against what i'm saying to the rest of the league. Yes, a few people didn't want it in the league. Yes, a few people would like it to be changed, including me. However, if you look at my previous posts i am attempting to get people to support this in any way possible and try and make it work.

I hope that the people that are against this, can instead of complaining, and moaning, help us by getting your teams to at least try and play. I think a re-assessment at the end of the first fixture would be more suitable.

Agreed?

The effort to get 6 players on line to get one game played takes a ridiculous amount of effort. So 2 games against one team with different players involved doesn't make sense.

Why did we not do 2 games of killers in the games to decide if you were allowed to play in the league and now when it comes to the league we are. (Can't work this one out?)

Sorry but it is a spectacular own goal which you have a chance to sort before it becomes a disaster.

Why not ask the captains of each team their preference, 1 game or 2 game per fixture set.

Or why not wait. Let fixture set one play out, and see how many teams get it played. If 1 or 2 teams get it played, then it's obvious that there is an issue. If it's just 1 or 2 teams that DONT get it played, then it's down to their reliability.

The hassle to get one played per fixture is more than enough. To get 2 played it is more hassle than it is worth. This is already my personal experience for 1 game of killer. In desperation to get the game done i was going to play!!! Fortunately another MVP player logged in and i didn't need to. The point is that most clans will go out of their way to get a full quota of 3 v 3 to get 1 killer game played. This would hopefully mean no defaults for killer. The hassle of trying to get a different 3 v 3 for the second game of killer is probably 5 to 10 times harder than the first game so why do we need that extra hassle in the league and certainly i would expect most clans would agree, so why do you not ask the captains as they are the ones who have to try and get these games organised and 4 games of killer per 2 weeks for your 2 fixtures is way too much hassle.

I seem to be the only league runner replying at the moment. As thats the way it is, i'm going to say that my decision is to wait for the end of fixture one. Following this an inquiry can be made into whether this is a viable option or not. I understand it must be hard to get it played, however 3 of 16 players online at the same time is not that hard?

My whole point is that it can't be come a disaster. The absolute worst case scenario is that the games don't get played and killer just gets removed from the results for this season. Hardly a disaster and that's the worst case.

So we may as well give it an honest try.

Lol if this happens and its not a disaster not sure what would be then.

All i have asked is common sense be applied as 2 fixtures is too much per game and ask captains if they agree or disagree with this. From what i have read and others have said to me, one fixture of killer per game is more than enough.

Why not ask before it is too late

Not sure why that would be a disaster. It wouldn't hurt anyone and wouldn't interrupt the running of the league.
Whether it's the better choice or not, they've decided on something as runners. How credible can they be if they second-guess themselves after a few days?
It will show people that any decision- if argued enough by members- could be overturned.

It's a new feature and isn't guaranteed to work, just like everything else that's new.

So would you prefer one fixture per game seb, or do you like this 2 with 6 different players involved?

Neither (and no, that doesnt mean no killer).

My opinion of it is irrelevant. What the runners decide(d) as a team is what should happen.
