       so find more ppl who can host - its not that hard, just ask who
       is willing to host
       you dont need 50 ping to play, as long as pings are mostly under
       200 is playable (200-300 is a bit choppy but still playable)
       just use whoever hosts the pre and one other person
       most ppl can host, they just dont want to
       some ppl are gonna have to step up and volunteer and actually
       commit themselves to hosting responsibility

       im saying 2 active hosts who have reasonable ping per team is
       asking a bit much
       why do you need more than 8 for a 3v3 league?
       also op edited to have other stuff

       i know that 2 hosts per team is a bit much. they dont have to be
       great hosts, it is just so that we have hosts.
       im not going to go all raging if a team does not have 2 hosts,
       but 2 is recommended so that the away team can have a host whom
       they can contact from their roster. If a team does not have
       hosts on their roster, they will have to find hosts from
       elsewhere to host their away games. The important thing is that
       each game has a designated host by 7:00 gamenights.
       Expansion GMs will be picked in order of first 6 to send in 10
       new players whom they got to join the league. There will be an
       expansion playoff to determine division.
       Expansion playoff will go like this: each team plays 5 games
       round robin style over the course of 2 days. 1st place goes to
       div a, 2nd plays 5th and 3rd plays 4th in 3 or 5 game series (to
       be decided upon). winners go to div a, losers and 6th place go
       to div b.
       The expansion deadline is April 8.
       The round robin will be on April 9 and 10.
       Playoff round is April 11.
       Season 5 Draft is April 15.
       Season 5 starts April 18.

       we have to have a big expansion eventually - and the more teams
       we add, the bigger a league we become, the more people want to
       play
       ppl like playing in big leagues, not small ones. we wont survive
       as a 10-team league for many more seasons, we must expand
       and the more we expand, the more new members we get, the more
       competitive we become and the more ppl become interested in
       joining the league

       Ok I was thinking about GMing a team but all these rules are
       shit tier and no fucking way am I gonna spend my whole day to
       get 3 or 4 noobs to join, that wouldn't even be enough to be a
       >HCD gm. I'm not gonna do all the work for u fgts when this
       league is already very large on its own (200+ Members) Also, 7
       to pm your host? Really? Teams wont even know if they have any
       players at this time because the games at at 8:00 and 8:30 (but
       most of the time end up being 45 minutes after the scheduled
       time). Teams open there pregames maybe 20-30 minutes early in
       this league, not 1-1:30 HOURS before their game...
       Tl;dr- Not all GMs in fact, I feel like not even 7 will have the
       autism to keep up with this bullshit. It almost makes GMing a
       team a punishment...

       if each GM only brings in 2 players then average attendance will
       go down
       the whole point is to increase the population and average
       attendance, seeing as how 25% of people leave as soon as they
       join
