League schedule needed to be 8 weeks
Except for outside of your league, bronze. Theres no reason to do so really. Let alone the amount of blow out matches there currently are. The schedule just needs to be thought through better. Complete kitten job on anets part with scheduling.
There is no reason to bother with 168 or 159 matchups at all. These are going to be total blowouts and not much fun for anyone.
Looking at the current North American match ups, both Gold league matchups are blowouts, and 2 silver league matchups are blowouts. Bronze is the only league that’s even a little competitive.
Please god no! It’s enough that we have to suffer 7 weeks of this kitten. If an extra week was added I fear my toon would hang himself off the LA bridge.

It should be 0 weeks.
The problem with the leagues is that ANET separated the servers incorrectly. The forums users tried to tell them that 1-6 was a bad idea. 1-3 should have always been separate. I guess ANET needed their data point and now they have it. Lesson learned… listen to the forums more.
Why ANET would separate Mag, SBI, FA, and SoS makes zero sense. Those are 4 of the most evenly matched servers. With TC losing guilds, they probably fit into that group as well.

1-3 leaving 21 servers left? how would you do those 21 servers? a league of 9 and a league of 12? so you just added NSP, IoJ, and either CD or EBay to bronze league, ruining the only competitive league?

We’ve discussed this in the silver league thread quite a bit.. Feel free to check it out. In the end the disparity between bronze and silver after IoJ is immense. CD and Ebay would thoroughly crush bronze, while other silver and gold leagues servers crush them with extreme ease. I hate to say it, either the pop needs to spread or servers need to be consolidated to make leagues work… Otherwise we can just keep the fun old match ups we had.

How about 1-3 fight each other for 7 weeks in the superzergballlagfest league. The remaining 21 get divided into 3 leagues of 7.

I disagree with the 8 weeks things.
To me it should have been 4 weeks of set matches, so everyone plays everyone evenly, then you matchup the top 3, next top 3, and next top 3 until a winner is determined (keep in mind that this isn’t promotion/regulation, but matchups based on total server points).

I am speaking from a bronze perspective that it IS competitive here for the most part and if the schedule was “fair” we’d probably get 3rd, but since another server has an easier schedule they will get it instead.

3 leagues of 7? so 1 server sits out each week from each league?
Here is mine for Gold NA
123
456
124
356
135
246
125
346
123
456
we only need 5 weeks. How do you know if 6 in gold goes to silver and 1 in silver goes to gold?
^ server 1 is not facing server 6 so that’s an invalid setup with the goals of leagues in mind.

3 leagues of 7? so 1 server sits out each week from each league?
Yes 1 server from each league will sit out of the league and play the other 2 that are sitting out. Each server takes a turn sitting out. Sure that week will be a blow out but I would rather have 1 blowout here and there than 7 in a row. While they are fighting in the side lines their points don’t count towards the season but people can still complete their achieves.
