The Server Cup competition
« on: July 11, 2016, 04:43:03 PM »
It has came to light while filling the newest Server Cup that some people missed out.
Multiple teams are something I allowed when I begun the competition so Steven didn't do anything wrong. However, I see some people have entered their 2 teams next to eachother thus giving themselves a Bye in the first round. Which I'm disappointed about and isn't what The competition is about,

There is a solution to this.. We can cancel and remake this competition at Server Cup 19 before the first game has played. Enter again with rules clearly set out in the description. I fill we can potentially get 128 teams now without multiple teams as the game has grown since I began the competition.

This is open to opinions so please post them.. We have 3days before it starts so we cna sort this.
We are The Borg. You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile.

In fairness to all the cup should be restarted as well as giving me the hour back I spent messaging all the users.

Yeah sure i vote for a re-start. Im sorry i had no idea if i entered both my teams beside eachother i would be playing myself. Id rather not have anyway, not in the true spirit of things.

I'm all for a restart. There needs to be a clear rule on how many teams and not entering them together though.

I cant fault the work you've done in messaging all the mangers Steve, I doth my cap to you in that respect, people like you keep the game buzzing. however this needs to be restarted and be made 1 team per user. People should know by now if you enter your own teams side by side you will play them in the first round. Still, that's besides the point.. 2 teams even in a league this big is an unfair advantage and should not be allowed, and that's the same for any private league or division. It's cheating and unfair. It's bad enough that managers have the potential to have up to 8 teams in the champions shield, Icc and elite cup if they qualify respectively  ::)

1 team per user. Feel free to rotate which team you put in each edition of the cup, but don't put more than 1 team in in fairness of all the managers only using 1 team. These rules should apply across any private league and division on the game and perhaps should be stickied somewhere on a thread to be made clear to all managers with more than 1 team so no breaches of rules are happening going forwards.

There's every chance I'll be ko'ed in the first round if this gets restarted, but I'd have liked to have had the chance to enter and compete in a fair competition rather than log on and see that people have thrown in all their teams because it's free and they had no clear guidelines as to what is fair and what isn't.

I haven't looked but imagine there are many multi-teams entered, I got the message, (cheers Steve) saw there were plenty of spaces, forgot about it for a day or two then the bloody thing had started!  Play the game lads/lasses!
