       Important Season 4 Changes
       By: Lord of Fail Date: February 5, 2013, 8:26 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Here are some changes that I will put into the league for Season
       4:
       For now I only have 3 major changes, but be sure to check this
       thread often as I will add to this list whenever I have more
       ideas!
       Anybody who has ideas, feel free to PM me, and if they are good
       ideas I will consider adding them to this list!
       1) Even though I am the Commissioner, my goal is to do
       practically nothing for Season 4. This is because I will not be
       here for the majority of Season 5 as I have summer plans. I have
       already chosen an Interim Commissioner, and I want to make sure
       this league can operate without me so that I can come back from
       summer and find the league still organised. Therefore, we will
       need a few more staff members to help edit the team pages. The
       only thing that I have done on a consistent basis in Season 3 is
       editing the Standings, Schedules and Gameday ezBlocks, and any
       staff member can do that as it does not take a very long time.
       2) Perhaps the biggest change, and by far the one I am most
       excited about is the integration of the HCD Cup. Let me explain
       what this is. Basically, we have the Divisional Cups for each
       Division, and then there is the HCD Cup. All Teams, regardless
       of Division, partake in this Tournament. Teams in higher
       Divisions will get byes to later rounds. Matchups will be
       determined randomly and announced each week. How the scheduling
       will work is as follows: Sundays will now be HCD Cup Games.
       Therefore, to accommodate the 3-day per week schedule, games
       will now be played on Thursdays. If both teams in a thursday
       game are not playing in that week's HCD Cup games, then they can
       move their game to Sunday. I am aware that this interferes with
       SPHB, and so therefore this whole thing is a test. I feel that
       we need to do this test now when we have fewer teams as it will
       be harder to integrate with a large amount of teams. Each
       matchup shall be a best of 3 series. The Quarter Finals and Semi
       Finals are best of 5 series. The Finals are a best of 7 series.
       The Finals take place after the Divisional Finals.
       Note: I will have it work out the Cup schedule to have the same
       amount of rounds as game weeks. Also, byes are determined by
       final placement in the prior season. If a team is promoted or
       relegated, they are considered to be in first or last of their
       new divisions (promoted teams are considered last and relegated
       teams are considered first)
       Also, if teams want, they can play their Thursday Game on Sunday
       if they can find a host and an official - note that any HCD
       Staff member can Officiate a game.
       I will oversee the whole process. If you want an example of how
       this is to work, look up the FA Cup - I plan on running the HCD
       Cup in a similar manner.
       3) The Draft (Reminded by Cole72)
       Oh boy... lets just say i did not like how the Season 3 draft
       went.
       Here is how we do the Season 4 Draft: All players enter the
       Draft Pool of the Division of which their team finishes in
       (after promotion / relegation)
       Division A Draft goes first, they MUST pick from the Division A
       Draft Pool. They can only pick from the Division B Draft Pool if
       the Division A Draft Pool is exhausted. All new players who
       enter the league immediately go into the Division B Draft Pool.
       This season will be a test towards this new system as I think
       that it will work better.
       Any feedback on these ideas would be much appreciated!

       I think Alexa means you forgot to mention that for ssn 4, there
       will be a separate draft for Division a and b, and all the
       players that were in a division A team (including players on
       promoted teams) would be in the division a draft, and vice
       versa.
       this is just what you told me irl a few weeks ago, don't know if
       you changed your mind.  :/

       ss - just look up FA Cup
       or just wait and it will all make sense, then you will think
       "oh gee, its so simple now"
       and then you will discover the meaning of life and become the
       next great philosopher - you will help millions of people

       LoF, stop the Shit
       for the draft, leave everyone available, that's fair to all, the
       system you suggest is reidiculously pointless and stupid
       also don't be that faggot that moves games to thursdays, if you
       really want the HCD cup then you make the games on a saturday,
       then the following sunday, bye week, then the following
       saturday, then end it the next sunday
       takes it through a 5 week scehdule, and we don't have to play on
       >thursdays

       in that case HCD Cup games can be after the Sunday Games
