Re: A new season, a new task

Let's see if I can answer a few of these...

first round pick position determined by user rank(?) just curious what you meant.
That someone of power would be the league commisioner.

Trading:
No maximum trades-just as long as they dont get too out of hand.
trades have to be approved by a league commissioner-if it is say a first round robot for a third round robot-you should have a darn good reason for doing so.
trades involve the exchange of one robot for another-maybe some leeway, but this should be for like the hardcore statisticians
I an very adimant of strictly one for one trades. You get an allaince of three and a league should not be allowed to start until every team has an equal amount of teams.

Inclusion of a STAR team(Remains same) however, How do we determine order? Upon registration or will this be a "draft" as well.
Use a randomizer.
Quote:
Before each regional competition begins (and after league members are no longer allowed to make selections for given regional), League members would be paired up with a randomly selected "foe." They would compete with each other for the equivalent of win credentials (Win [2] - Loss [0] - Tie [1]). The league member that earns the most points of the two foes is the winner. Should the two parties earn the same number of points, they get a tie. If any league member receives a total of 7 win points, they are automatically added to the waiting list for the playoffs (discussed later).
---Are we going to do new selections before every regional? Its kind of confusing to me, i may be reading it wrong though. Just the way its written seems that some players dont have teams in a regional. Seems like a stupid question but a lot of work. Maybe we have every user pick one regional that theyd like to do per week and do it that way.
I think Joel will have to answer this one. I was happy just having best overall record winning outright for the whole regional.
Quote:
Rich Mans Tax-how do we go about selecting who the top 25 is?
uhhhh good question. I guess Joel will have to tackle that one as well.
Quote:
And with the team selections-the predictions does everyone do every regional or one regional or...?
I think people should be able to select whichever regional they wish to partipate in individually. But I could see a season long league where competitiors pick a new alliance every week and every competition.
Quote:
Playoffs-Nationals do you mean?
I beleive that's what he means.
Quote:
Im kind of sketchy in my questions, but some others may have the same thing, i have ideas, i just wanna get what you think out there clearer first.
Hopefully I was a little help.
