Season 3 Signups
« on: August 03, 2014, 08:27:25 pm »

This thread is not for people already in the League.
If you want to stay after season 2, please post an "I'll be back" message in the scheduling thread of your group after you finish your last match.

Season 3 will run from the 31st of August to 12th of October.
Signups for Season 3 will close Friday 29th of August.
Everybody is welcome.

If you want to join please post a message stating
your username
your timezone offset (e.g. UTC+2)
your preferred level: E, D, or Above D. If you want to be started above D please tell us why, although a sufficiently high Isotropish rating (as determined by Stef) would justify it.

Not really sure where to post this, so hopefully this is the least wrong place, but perhaps it would be a good idea to suggest in this thread or the Rules thread that  people (especially new forumites) enable the option to have PMs forwarded to their email. We had an issue with someone in our division not realizing the league had started and not responding to PMs. I think it would probably help with scheduling, etc.

I'd like to join...this looks like a fabulous format!!

Probably division D would be a good starting place (~5300 Goko Pro, Lvl 28 Isotropish) but will play wherever if y'all feel differently.

Question:  Is the browser extension mandatory?  I don't have it at this point.

Thanks for hosting this!!

EDIT: Oh and since I apparently can't read...

It's not mandatory. Some players do play with the VP counter on. You can access the counter in the chat even without the extension, but if you want to play without the counter then just make sure to tell your opponents when you're scheduling your matches. Welcome to the league!

I'd like to play.

Probably in division C, although D could be good too. I used to play a lot on iso, usually high 30s highest was 42, I've been on and off with goko.

I haven't bought any cards, is that a problem?

No, but it means you'll have to play with whatever your opponent has, so you might have to suffer through base-only :P

We'll take your iso rating into consideration.

I'll sign up.  UTC -5 (EST).  Username: EFHW.  Put me in E, I guess.  I don't really have ratings to go by to assess where I should be.  I'm willing to try D, too.

Hearing about the others signing up for D, I think you better put me in E!

The range of players in D is big. I'm in D3, but if you look at the scores there's a big gap between the top 3 and bottom 3 (if I'm reading them correctly). I can play as well as most of the guys in C, but someone is going to move down, and someone is going to move up. I think going into E should be based on how often you'll be able to play as opposed to how good you are.

Yes the range in D is big, but that's exactly why E exists. The difference between E and D is in fact based on how good you are and not on activity/availability. Or to be more precise - it's based on how good you think/claim you are, because you have a free choice. Whoever feels more comfortable playing in E, should play in E.

This season we had to remove a player from A, C, D and E, so inactivity can happen on all levels.
I just hope we can keep it to a minimum impact for the active players, and so far I'd say this is going pretty well.

Ah. I thought E was for people who might no finish games, and could move to a D section in the next season if they wanted to.

I would like to try out this league.

IGN: Hydrad
Timezone: UTC-6
Skilllevel: Probably E as I think thats the lowest one. Although it looks like the people in E are still way better then me :)
Right now I'm just around 4000 on Goko in Iso level(whatever that means) is 8

For anyone else, such a statement would be a scum tell.  For Hydrad, it's simply a tell that you're reading something from Hydrad.

I believe that while my internet does sometimes drop, you can now reconnect to games on Goko, and it's less frequent as well.

So...

Preferred Level: E

(I'm pretty out of practice, so while I might be better suited to D, I think E is more sensible).

...spin-offs are still better for all of the previously cited reasons.
But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

Can I still sign up for the league or am I too late? I'm live in US Central Standard Time Zone (UTC -6?).
I would like to be placed in division E whatever that means.
I will say that there would be two potential problems for me:
1) I am in High School and sometimes will be quite busy with academic-related things and other extracurricular events/activities, so there might be times where I'm not able play scheduled league games
2) I do not currently have expansions on Goko

(My Goko username is Trogdor)

Thanks!
