Creating a League in Multiplayer

[dode74]

Seeding means just that: you can put people into individual leagues.

You can keep both leagues, so no need to delete. Just have people leave one (or boot them) and apply for the other.

If you're looking at changing the league structure completely rather than having an intermediate competition then you can simply change the league settings, I think. I know that option is broken for MM leagues, but I'm not sure about structured leagues as it may work in the off-season. In that case just change the type of competition and the number of divisions etc.

Leagues or divisions? Should we make a new league for each division?

Thank you! I didn't know that two leagues with the same name can exist.

I will see if I can find it out. But I'm not the league creator, just a mod.

Divisions.

I don't think two with the same name can exist. Perhaps I misunderstood you: I thought you wanted two separate leagues. An alternative would be a space before the league name, or a full stop after it, or something else. If I understand you correctly now then changing the rules might be a better option.

If you need help you might be able to catch me in-game. I can then talk any league admin through the process.

You don't have to delete the league.

Between seasons, you just go into settings, and you can set the max number of teams and divisions. Everyone that's currently in the league can stay in the league and you can just add in the rest.

OK, thank you all for your help! It seems to work well so far.
Just two more questions: Do we need to have all the players join BEFORE we press the start season button? Or can we change the settings, start the season, then have people join and put them into divisions?

[dode74]

It's better to have everyone in. Then you can press start season and juggle them into their divisions.

Wonderful! And thanks again for all your help!
We didn't think that our league would grow that much and we're a little overwhelmed.

A quick question: We're playing a 4 team championship and the top 2 has same nr of W/D/L matches, but the one with less Team Rating is currently showed as 1st in the League. How does it work? Less Team Rating = better ranking? Thanks.

[MILLANDSON]

I believe it goes to TD difference first.

[paxxarelli]

Really strange, because I'm quite confident the team ranked now as 1st ( with lower TR ) scored less than the 2nd ( with higher TR ).
