Guild Wars 2

You did not even attempt to give fair draws AND you did not even attempt to balance out red/blue/green starting positions. Was the 10 minutes it would take too much for you?

For example, JQQ has an easier draw and is green all seven weeks.

Fair draws?
Isn’t the whole point of the League that everyone is supposed to meet everyone?

As far as ANet is concerned, every server in Gold League is identical, population-wise. Same goes for the others. I don’t think they ever had a clue about the nature of the Top 4 servers, and getting a clue (watching MOS trends) was too much effort for them.

It is quite funny that people claim that ArenaNet doesn’t have a clue, while they themselves clearly don’t understand what a League is…

Fair means everyone gets equal treatment (or as close as you can get with 7 weeks of matches).

It is quite obvious that you are the clueless one. You have zero concept of fairness, and think that just facing each other once equates to balance.

It’s indeed… how to put this diplomatically… not very smart to make up a Schedule were we, on Tarnished Coast, are not green for SEVEN WHOLE WEEKS.

I don’t know who made up this Schedule nor who approved it, but I doubt they thought it through. 10 extra minutes of work would have prevented this, just 10.

Don’t bother. In his eyes, ANet does no wrong.

It does seem that way.

At least alternate the colours/EB starting places. Green has an acknowledged avantage in EB.

Stormbluff Isle dominating everything, nearly wp’s in every keep. Thanks for the 1 sided matchup anet!

SBI should have been facing us (SoS).

JQ was the number 1 seed, so they are gonna get the easier schedule. You guys really can’t be that stupid. Have you ever noticed in playoffs, and tournament the number 1 seed always plays the weaker seeds.

SBI has the easier schedule in Silver, etc, etc.

The thing is, don’t worry about that and win the matches that are in front of you. BG and SoR, you guys need to stop complaining. You already handed them a loss in round 1, so you have the upper hand right now.

Your destiny is in your hands, not the schedules.

This is the blow out week. In silver the schedule is 7v11v15, 8v12v13, and 9v10v14.

Again, SBI gets an easier draw cause we are the #1 seed. DB got the harder one being the number 3 seed.

I think we need to stop complaining. This isn’t much different than the RNG matches, and the scoring is much better than the Glicko scoring.

Who cares about the color. SBI is green the whole time, who cares.

That’s the most backwards inconsiderate idea I’ve heard yet then.
This isn’t baseball…. Baseball has 3 outfielders and 5 infielders -VS- 3 outfielders and 5 infielders. …. not 3 outfielders and 5 infielders VS 10 outfield and 20 infield…

It is however still fully possible for every single server in the game (yes even Vabbi) to get full maps.
The fact that there is a map cap makes it possible for all servers to fight on “equal” terms.
