League (1v1) Discussion

Bah, just lost my long response to this - bloody tablet pcs.

So, the abridged version...

I used to post quite a few long, creative reports as and when i got urge. Recently however, the expectation to do reports has led to me not posting them as i know i cant do it for every fixture. I wonder if new members have been put off joining by this expectation? What I'm saying is, match reports are great for those who want to post / read them, but I don't think there should be any pressure to post them.

For me, this league is great because i get to play a fair game of FIFA whilst having a chat with like minded folk. The comms are the most important part for me - it's how I've got to know lots of the people on here.

I don't think anyone is suggesting there should be pressure to post them. If you don't post them no-one is going to have a go at you. Posting reports should correlate with a higher team pick, though.

I don't agree but each to their own

And that would be fine, but I do feel there has been increasing pressure to post reports, in fact I know there has. I'm sure many people enjoy writing and reading them, but I think that's a subjective thing and if people just want a good game of footy and a bit of banter I don't think it should matter. Timekeeping, comms, fair play, nice bloke - I think these are the important factors. Having said all that, I'm not hugely concerned by team picking order. I've had some really good seasons with 'lesser teams'.

Why not make a return to fastest finger first team selection evening? Now that's drama. In fact, looking at the big picture of how to get a bit more interest in the league, I think we should perhaps just go back to basics, make things simple and enjoy playing the game without the distractions of peer ratings, stats, picking order lots of cup competitions etc.

You guys who organise this stuff are cracking and Saint's done an amazing job of growing such a great community. It's all very much appreciated and I hope my comments aren't taken as being negative. Looking forward to next season.

I once had the lowest post count in my leagues thread and posted the least amount of match reports, and ended up with the highest rating overall! That was a good year.

What I'm getting at is, if it's left up to us lot to vote on these things, it can still sometimes go awry.

Hows about no pressure on posts or anything and just a random.org of the best sides get assigned to people.

Could see how that goes for a season or 2.

If people wanna do vids and full on reports then fair play to them.

1v1 announcements:

New admin team for S34 onwards:

GrahamDunn

SaintM

Jamin

Mardigan

Wincho

Team selection order (by league):

Team selection order will return to normality from S34 onwards. The Premiership will pick from 5* teams with the remaining available teams making their way down the rest of the leagues. This means that players moving up the leagues via promotion will be rewarded for their efforts with the chance to pick a higher rated team the following season.

Number of fixtures per week:

Unfortunately due to the restraints of the current 1v1 League website, we are unable to move to a 1 fixture v 2 different opponents per week format. The website in its current design won't allow such a structure and would require complete redevelopment. It might be something we can look at again at a later date.

More announcements regarding team selection (picking order) will be announced in due course (once we have a completed list of participants).

If any of you have any suggestions that you'd like us to discuss then feel free to post them in here.
