       League versus divisions
       By: LimitedWard Date: May 13, 2013, 7:38 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       I already brought this up once before, but I guess I'll have to
       bring it up again because it was changed... again. There's a
       huge difference between a league and a division. A league is the
       entire body of players, teams, staff, etc. A division is a part
       of a league that pertains to certain teams. Any team that's not
       in one division will always be in another. All teams, however,
       fall under the same league.
       Reasons why we should keep our league as Divisions A, B, etc:
       1) I know you are pushing for our LEAGUE to be more like the
       Premier League, but that doesn't mean that we should emulate
       every part of them. You don't see use calling out offsides rules
       because the EPL does.
       2) Division is the only logical term to use when DIVIDING teams
       in a league.
       3) It's called Haxball Club DIVISIONALS for a reason. Not
       Haxball Club Leagues... that would just be autistic (or
       hydrochloric acid).
       4) It follows a logical progression of naming. Going with A, B,
       C, etc. makes a lot more sense and is easy for newcomers to
       understand than PL, L1, etc.
       5) It builds a sense that PL players are innately superior to
       players in the "lower" leagues. This is exactly the kind of
       behavior I was trying to avoid when founding this league. It
       was, after all, designed to be a league where everyone, even
       those who were not "worthy" of other leagues could join.
       The defense rests.

       Why league? It just doesn't make sense to me. HCD is a league
       with divisions, not a "insert word here" with leagues.

       yeah i had a hunch you meant division, but i didn't want to
       correct you on the off chance that it would make me look stupid
