Servers:
Vanishing's Ladder servers

Style: BO3 double round robin format.

Team Formats: Home team (the right team) picks between server or map choice and away team (the left team) will receive other option. Server Options: AAB

Seeds were random and games were randomly generated with the use of the website.

Teams can substitute twice during a game. 6 players + 1 sub will start the game.

Map Pool: For regular season only, teams once a server has picked will run command: /clan maps 5. The maps chosen by this command will be the map pool for the match between two teams.

Playoffs will have fixed map pools

Maps:

1. ball_asteroids
2. ball_cave
3. ball_core
4. ball_cross
5. ball_funnelpark
6. ball_hardcourt (original unless server only has updated ver.)
7. ball_grotto
8. ball_ice
9. ball_illumination
10. ball_labyrinth
11. ball_lostcity
12. ball_mayhem2
13. ball_maze
14. ball_planepark
15. ball_skylands

No preseason.

no challonge?

[darknietzsche]

I think using challonge is too confusing for people when it comes to the double round robin. This other site lets me not only allow for double round robin but while every team will face every team once home and once away they will not do so on what would be respective rounds. So round 1 and round 8 do not correspond with one another. Teams A and B might play rounds 1 and 15, which gives it a better feel to me.

The main problem is there is no way to get an image or embed it to my knowledge, so unfortunately I have to use a link.

[darknietzsche]

Yeah, that works, but it is not really effective, as to update it I will have to screenshot it everytime, which is not something I want to do. Challonge will update itself once it is updated online, so you only have to embed once.

Fair enough.

Here are a list of changes (and reminders of some existing features) to expect on servers tomorrow:

• It is no longer possible to play league matches on Ranked servers. There are now separate league servers (currently supporting both Ball and TBD maps). You can /votemove or admin move from Ranked servers with league servers defined as LEAGUE, so /votemove EU LEAGUE for example. US servers are defined as USE (east, US server we have been using) and USW (west, new server in central US. Mostly for late night ladder but if both teams are almost entirely US and both agree to play on USW that is fine. Teams should not force another team to play on USW, play on USE if not agreed upon.).
• Rosters have been set in database and can be viewed using "/clan roster <clan name - AK, asdf, Ball, BBQ, Vlix, Volare, or ZroG". Captains are listed first and indicated by (C) in front of nickname. ~ in front of nickname means player is logged into one of my servers or at least was within the last two minutes.
• Captains (and ladder admins) are able to use "/clan drop", "/clan kick", "/clan addleft", "/clan addright"/, and "/clan spec" after selecting target player with /P. addleft, addright, spec modify tournament putting that player on a team or removing to spec. "/clan start" and "/clan stop" does not require vote when called by captains.
• Clan chat (/c) is back, works across all my Ranked and League servers.
• /voteChangeMap has been changed to /voteMap
• "/clan list maps <#0 - 9>" to get random SL maps. Use "/clan maps" to repeat to last set of maps generated in that server. If a captain/admin uses the command it repeats it via server message. Normal players get a server whisper with the list.
• League servers use a separate ban list than ladder. As of now no one is banned on league servers.
• League standings and match results will be added to planeball.com hopefully by next Sunday or at least shortly after that. Stats will follow later.

Since servers are separate there is no more need to switch between lobbies. However, at least for now tournament will still stop automatically after each game ends. I will likely remove the auto stop in the future but it is safer to keep it on for this week.
