Hmmm...interesting...big sticks eh? :P

I almost guarantee you that the league will not fail, all we need from the teams/clans that register is activity. Should be fun

Also, as I've stated, it's estimated completion date is the 30th, however it may be pushed to the end of this week or start of the next.

We may well be close to hosting a LAN very soon which will be using the league system, but no promises. As I've said, tis looking good so far :)

Just a quick update, the main goal after getting the site live, is to test the water by running a ranked, monitored ladder where we put seeded teams vs one another to see if people are willing to commit.

We also have some pretty nifty ideas floating around about winning cr... (said too much, what a cliffhanger :P)

You can't guarantee that. You can't be 100% sure it won't fail, you'll only succeed if the whole community is willing to work with you, and because most either won't know who the hell you are or just won't want to, you may have trouble starting out.

I applaud your confidence but trying to guarantee something you actually have no physical control over is fucking idiotic. That's like me saying it's 100% guaranteed that Hillary Clinton won't win this years election. How the hell can I guarantee that? I can't, same as you.

Don't give people false hope. It may help people to start with but when it fucks up it can shatter some peoples dreams. Hence why I am not waiting out on a "God" to exist.

He acctually said [quote="Nickel]I almost guarantee you that the league will not fail, all we need from the teams/clans that register is activity[/quote]

So he said, if all participate. he sees no reason why not.

Yeah, but people need to be willing to allow a few things.

1. They need to get off their ass and actually attend and;
2. Not care that somebody else will be controlling the ladder, not them.
3. They actually have to know about the thing first. I know anyone here wouldn't have known anything (or much) about it if Survive hadn't told us. But he can't do that for every single clan forum.

Anyhow, Daf/Nickel has came up with some rules that can sort the 'attendence of clan members'

Seems resonable to me, but these are not official yet.

So we have to wait TWO months now, eh? How about I say, fuck that and it's never going to work. Why? Because you love to delay the whole thing. God you guys are so stupid.

This wouldn't be that bad, if you had announced it when it was released and completed. This is why I don't tell people I plan on releasing something, as generally, loads of "complications" occur. Never make promises. I have in the past and have usually not been able to keep them.

It's like telling somebody there is a life after death. They believe it and then, when they die, they find out there is no afterlife (don't take this too heart, it's purely an example). Sweet, eh? Don't give people false hope for crying out loud, it doesn't help you any.

I have to agree with Alex on this. You've taken way too long and now you've fucked up all chances. Not only did the plan sound completely fucked in the first place but now you make us wait an extra month to add on to the month we've already waited.

Like I said...

FUCK THAT!

Whats late and early to you?

And since I haven't heard off him for some time, I guess it's for the people that have GCSE's/exams on their hands, and the BETA testing he needs to do with the site. That's the only guessess I have.

What is late? In this case June, clearly. It was supposed to go online in April.

Kiwi really wants his league game. What team are you in for this event? Must be difficult to manage.. ping and all.




I dont care about estimations as long as it takes place. Im more interested in how the matches will be set up.

Weve had a bit of experience in trying to arrange something like this with some members of this community, so if CGL needs any help I will try to be of some assistance, if its within my capabilities. :wink:

we did some hell of a lot thinking to get rules sorted, and I believe I still have all the material from that imperial league.


Also, what software is going to be used, IF its going to be used?

Perhaps the community can sponsor the league. Obviously we arent talking about very big sums, but even if marginal its the thought that counts ;) I personally would donate.

Update:
The CGL website will open to the public on the expected date but the competitions etc may be a few days later. I guess this is so the teams have time to register.
