I like the experiment with 3 fixtures in 3 weeks. I've thought about this in the past and am interested to see if it works well.

Playing everyone twice and 20 fixtures is far too much, people will get bored after the first few fixtures as there will only be a 2 or 3 teams max in with a chance of winning the rest of the fixtures will be meaningless.

It has yet to be tried, so lets give it a bash! I have tried to condense it into 3 weekly deadlines so before we all start the moaning let us see how it pans out. If it doesn't work then I shall admit I made a mistake!

And with the added element of playing each other twice it gives you a chance to get your own back on a clan that might have beaten you.

So we now have 2 leagues finishing in December and one finishing in April, let's look forward to the chaos when fcl and super league finishes and clans fold and players move clans, the fbl will end up a mess as it would have finished at the same time if it had kept to playing everyone once.

Just seems a hell of a lot to expect players to devote more of their time.

SL - 4 matches per fixture (2 sides entered)

FCL - 2 matches per fixture

FBL - 3 matches per Fixture set, (3 week Deadline, practically means 1 week per fixture)

Don't you think this is a little excessive? Players want to play for a team but not devote their entire LIFE to it.

No problem with 3 fixtures in 3 weeks as for all clan games you get 1 week per fixture. SL 2 in 2 weeks, FCL 2 in 2 weeks. The major problem is you will lose half your clan when FCL and SL finish, yet you still have 3 months of FBL to play. It is the playing each other twice that doesn't work.

I was thinking as it was long enough to revert back to a players getting 1 free pass into another clan

I tried to arrange a schedule with the FCL, which I thought I had sorted with pirate_steve but they just did their own thing anyway - so I am doing mine.

Your own thing is making a clan league last almost 6 months, it is far too long and you won't have clans in it by the end of it
