goko shutting down, one week delay

We've decided to postpone the start of season 11 by one week due to Goko shutting down tomorrow. The f.ds tournament also gets delayed by a week, so it would get a bit crowded otherwise. This means season 11 will now start 2nd of November and signups will close on Friday 30th of October.

Please try out the new client before that and decide if you still want to be part of the league.
If not, you can use this thread to sign out.

I'm very sad to say that I have to sign out from the League. I just tried the new version for the first time and it's even worse than what I expected after reading about it on this forum ; it crashed after every game (I have an old linux computer).

 :(


The browser version is good enough, I'm staying  :)

Maybe the new alpha of Web Dominon Online 2.0 will help you. MF says it will run before Goko shutdown.

One thing we're planning to get out before shutting 1.0 down is an alpha version of a web build.

ok gamesou see you back in season 15.

Now that we know what they call "beta" and "ready for launch" we can't seriously expect someone to play on a client that MF hopes to be able to label as "alpha".

I know you can not expect much from alpha. That is why I said "maybe".

This is the scariest phrase I've ever read.

Thanks ! Hey for me the alpha version works better than the beta (I mean: epsilon>0) !!! Can't wait for the pre-alpha version.

I don't know if this is just sarcasm or if you want to stay in the league now. Please make sure your statement is clear regarding leaving/staying before 30 Oct.

Sorry for polluting the thread, I have to try and play a few games before deciding what to do, but I'll tell you.

I'm not taking a chance here. I wish to withdraw from Season 11. Now that the Goko version has shut down, my hope is that they'll start to work out the kinks of 2.0 in the coming months. This may be wishful thinking.

I want to observe how Season 11 goes for others and if the platform has reached a better place by Season 12. I'll post you in the signup threads if I want to return.

After playing a few games on the browser version, it seems pretty good, so I'll back for season 11 !
