indibob, a large number of our current players are only playing because vacations are honoured, and I think this is reasonable, as even with a 3-day boot time, there are good reasons why people may need to be away from warlight for longer than 3 days. I will therefore continue to allow players to take vacations as needed.

Normally, it's not vacations that extend a season, but players who play slowly. The only reason vacations are an issue this time is because a couple of players have each taken 4 vacations in the one season. This is why I'm proposing a maximum of 3 vacations per season, with an auto-relegation for anyone exceeding that number.

As for allowing players who continually get booted to remain in the league, I don't think this is a good idea. An inactive player just means one less spot is available for promotions from lower groups. I'd rather kick the inactive player and promote someone who is active from a lower group. This keeps the league alive, and I think all players would prefer their wins coming through having to outplay their opponent rather than wait for the boot timer to expire.

Another match has finished in Group H. Here's an update on the group, showing the highest possible finish for those players whose position is still in doubt (*), and final positions for the others.

+1

Group A: In Progress

Buns157 (6-1)
Arkanton (6-2)
huddyj (6-2)
PanagiotisTheGreekFreak (5-3)
Master Bjarke (4-3)
iNsAnE (3-4)
PhucilliJerry (2-3)
8th. Bonsai (1-7)
9th. Super Smoove (0-8) Removed from the league for inactivity

Super Smoove boots in his final 3 matches, and will be removed from the league for his inactivvity. This leaves only 3 games to be played, each involving PhucilliJerry. Should he win all 3, there will be an unbreakable tie for first between Arkanton, Buns, and myself. However, from my reckoning, any loss by PJ (even if he beats Buns) will give Buns the League Champion title due to tie-breaks.

Matches left Group A: 3
Matches left Group H: 2

Hello :)

Ok Apollo, thanks for participating.

Sorry for the long delay, I'm back now and should be able to make turns every other day or quicker now.....

I would like to play in this league please

No worries Gears of War, I've added you for next season.

great

I'll join as well

i would also like to join

I'll rejoin

No worries, I'll add you all for season 8.

Hey any idea when the new season will start? I am going on a vacation starting this weekend, so I hope the joining system doesn't get screwed up if the season starts in this time.

I would like to represent the Cats clan in this league ok?

Hey!

So i thought about it and realised it was quite unsportsmanlike of me to just quite after suffering heavy loses. But i decide thats not what I want to represent and I would like to je-roin, if next season isn't possible then the season after would be fine with me :)

Final games are over, congratulations to Buns 157 winning the league and Arkanton being second!

In Group H Pardon99, FC Bayern and Uki finished first to third.

Thanks Suschel for the update. I'll try to post the groups for next season this week, but I'm pretty busy for the next few days.
