I think it would be nice to start using clanbase. Makes a change from the league and would be a laugh to have all clans in one ladder sometimes playing in a pretty funny way eg. 5v5 sc

5v5 sc? wtf

i remember the last time i played a 5v5 smallcube, we just stopped halfway through the match and started messing around

[Holy_Surfing]

Well, i really think if people can hardly play dbl matches these days, trying to play anything at all in clanbase would be bloody impossible... Even when people can get 5 to play with, it's hard to find another 5 to play against... It will be that way until deathball 2.0 comes out i belive.... but anyways.... count sD in, we got lots of people, might be able to play from time to time, altho i foresee that the ladder would be dead 1 month after any attempt of revival :>

the clanbase ladder works better than the current DBL system.. DBL system is a system where u have to play certain teams in a certain time.. Clanbase u can play ne time both teams are free.. How many times do u see clans looking for matches in the evenings? why couldnt they just use those matches for clanbase? imo it would work better than DBL as its more flexible

A ladder system works better than a league anyway, for online games...

agreed

Perhaps you should look at a succesful tournament-running site for some pointers. For example ClanBase. Thats been running all sorts of leagues/cups/tournaments for years.

The DBL as it is now isn't flexible at all. You MUST play between these dates and you MUST play these teams (who for the most part are not available for the set date/time).

With a more flexible league layout more teams could just decide they have enough players and find another team with enough players and just play then and there. Rather than waiting for the set date and time to come arround and find the team has dis-banded or are not online.

Most players are just not dedicated enough to play in such a rigid tournament (myself included). Sad, but true......

I still stand by what I said. Therefore if DeathBall re-appears on ClanBase °v° will join.

(ps: just noticed my sig, think i better change that )

Actually i just thought of something else... why not try to open a nations cup/ladder in clanbase? Well, tbh, for me, personally, it's useless, i'd never get to play but at least people would actually be able to play in their national teams in a real league/ladder system, like was once thought People started with these national thingies long ago, but nothing was actually done, just some fw's here and there, so this could be an opportunity for it since we're now discussing doing anything clanbase related now :>

Edit: /me considers changing nationality

Why the league doesn't work? It's a crap format that I have tried to change by telling bazzi. I gave up, I don't care about the DBL no more since nobody plays nobody complains.

Why the divisions don't work? It's the way its laid out, you win one division, and theres reward but just a simple placement. You win division 2 for example is not a big deal.

If I suggested a playoff concept whereas you play a couple of regular games, then the best teams play in the playoffs for a prize, then there might be some interest.

Instead of 30 minute games, make it 20. Some suggestions that the community can make rather than scrap the whole system.
