FML Updates, Clarity, and Adjustments
« on: July 22, 2014, 09:56:43 am »
:FMLN:

As everyone has seen, Worpex just posted our Round 3 matchups!  If you haven't yet seen them, then scroll down a bit!  This round we'll be making a few adjustments as we fine tune the system, and ensure that players have the best experience possible.  So, without further ado:

1) Players that obs games must stay for the entire game.  Failure to do so will result in that player not being allowed to obs future games.  The reasoning for this is because players have been getting dropped due to the obs bug recently.  Ugri was kind enough to explain why this was happening, and to try and fix that we're implementing this rule.  We want to encourage people to watch FML games, however the quality of the game for the player comes first.  If we continue to have players joining and leaving the games, then we will be forced to not allow any obs during the games.

2) Time to use Match Swap has been reduced from 48 hours to 24 hours.  In addition, match swaps will not be allowed for matches that have already been scheduled and have a set time.  For clarity, that will be 24 hours from the time of this post, not Worpex's post.  Our reasoning for this is that while we love the idea of the match cards and the new element they give to the game, again we don't want the players enjoyment and quality to suffer.  We feel that it was interfering a little bit with scheduling last round, so we are attempting to remedy that here. 

If players have any questions, comments, or feedback then please post it here.  We're going out on a limb this season and trying something new, so we hope that the players are enjoying it but we do want to hear what you have to say.

Lastly, for those not aware, the new interview with our Season 18 Champion, Mog[Skynet] is now available!  Excerpts were posted from it a while back, however it can be read in full now right here!

Well I can propose to forbid swapping from top tier game. That will keep it more entertaining. I know none has done it yet but still  :icon_wink:
