The leagues
General News by Demishadow on February 26, 2005 at 08:02 PM

This season 3 leagues WILL run.

AML will run with up to 16 teams.
Pro will run with up to 16 teams.
IML will run with up to 12 teams.

Do not let those running around promoting fear get to you. It will only cause you grief to listen to their doomsday propoganda.

During this season the staff will organize forums where the population can discuss changes to premier league. Myself, and the staff, fully expect next season to look very different from this season. It takes a lot of work, talk, and negotation to form a new structure. Back in the day AML wasnt created overnight, Premier league was created during the duration of a season... it is unreasonable to think premier league... the 3rd largest zone in SS still... can be revamped instantly.

Change will happen. It will NOT NOT NOT happen overnight. It will NOT be done hastly. It will NOT be done without large scale public debate.

To those IML players jumping to AML... you will not find a friendly home there... or perhaps not even a home at all. AML is working hard to keep itself newbie friendly... it is willing to take stronger actions on this then ever before... it is not right or proper for you guys to disturb that process. It is shamefull.

Demi.

Pro league signup is now officially closed. The regular season schedule is posted under the same thread/URL in the pro forum. If you can't see the new schedule under the old link, hit the refresh button. Preseason matchups coming up in a week or so.

Settings Changes
General News by Nelson on February 10, 2005 at 11:54 AM

If many of you have not noticed by now, turret maximum is now set at 1. I was going to make a big post before the start of the season about all effective changes that will happen but 1/300 people started noticing.

After many seasons of having 4 man turrets running around in matches, it is no longer possible. It deters teamwork. It is still possible to have 1 person turret as the strategy to "keep them alive because they have no reps" but not possible to have "we're all going to float here and make it really boring as the 4 man turret runs and does passes". Direct all flaming towards -> Brick wall.

Note: AML will not be adopting these changes but will be enforced as deemed necessary by the AML Sysop - Mizerize.

P.S. Pro league will be starting on Feb 27th. Probably that is when AML is over (Feb 20th). I am cutting off squad signup either after the next squad signs up or on the 20th where I will release the 1 round of the preseason schedule and regular season schedule. If you have any preferences to whom you want to play in the first preseason round, leave a note for me: in game via message or on the pro board.
