Why did the silver leagues need to be changed? If I'm correct I'm pretty sure you just destroyed a lot of old rivalries. I know West Side Bloods and Dirty Inc. always have some banter during their game every season and I'm sure there are many more. Why?!

It looks like 4 or 5 of the best silver teams all in one conference.

Are we still promoting the champion out of each Silver league?

Looks like if teams demote from gold like last season we will see lots of these new silver teams in gold next season.... Great idea Bort /sarcasm

Bort, how can you possibly see that having all copper teams together will help out with competition. Since you seem to think that these teams "could" be very good then why not make them prove themselves like you have every other season of Pee Wee? Why not think this idea through a bit more and have some silver teams stay in the other conference so that these promoted copper teams actually have to prove themselves?

I sure hope not, or else I will be asking to be moved. I have no real rivalries in my league anyway, all the my rivals are either in Gold or Sold. If Bort thinks these Copper teams are gonna be so good, he shouldn't mind moving my team over there.

why dont we just let it play out and see how it goes...to say copper teams cannot compete is a false statement...hell most rivalrys start in copper...me n gerr were in the same copper league, moved up to the same silver league and gold at the same time....we have a rivalry going on...our first season in silver we both played in the conference championship in a stacked silver 7 league

now even if u say one team gets a bye to the championship thats fine...but if ur truly better u will deserve to beat them...there were already "weak" silver conferences anyways...silver 7 east wasnt as strong as west...etc...

Now you have a "stacked" side but, guess what? all of GOLD is stacked...u want to get there, you should get used to it. Its great practice for borderline gold teams....i dont see why its such a problem to finally have more than 3 games to gameplan for...somethings people get worked up about are legit, but this isnt really a problem...i wish i had a harder conference in silver...coming to gold was such a shock in having to gameplan and looking for weaknesses in teams that seemed not to even be there

instead of whining and ragequitting, why dont u guys jus take it out on your next opponent...i swear some people just like complaining

I completely disagree with your arguments. Coppers deserve their rivalries too, and have plenty of competent owners. Pee Wee starts over every season. Everyone has a chance. Sounds like you're ready to just write off the copper owners out there as being total losers. The cream will rise as always. Just 'cause they started last season doesn't mean they automatically suck. There's silver teams who aren't going to be very good either, on the other side of the coin.

Also, I cannot "put it back" or anything like that. Teams are moved, owners have renewed or haven't, plans are in motion. You reshuffle and you lose all rivalries instead. Right now everyone gets to play teams they know and have something of a history with.

Yeah, looks like we probably have too many silver leagues, which makes for too many CPUs in silver. We can remove some next season if need be. We'll fill the CPU's we have now with new owners, who may or may not present a challenge. That's the trouble with pee-wee: you can't predict who's going to be good and who isn't, no matter where they came from.


I actually complete agree with this, it is just a tragedy that we will have to endure this season, but in a positive light we get to look forward to a much more exciting regular season and conference playoff than we've seen in the past.

I hope that by eliminating more silver leagues you intend to eliminate enough so copper teams who go 3-13 don't advance to silver, otherwise peewee will have lopsided championship games every season, with limited exceptions, as a copper team who can only win 3 games is not ready to compete in silver leagues.

Looks like it is set up to sell back your team, go back on the wait list and then take the easy route back up.

No one is saying copper teams can't compete I am just saying they need to prove themselves vs the best teams in their league. Not against teams they played in copper. I am going to send in a support request to change conferences then I will be sending the endseason results to Bort to show him his idea of competition failed.

I agree that you can never tell how team will turn out for instance:

Season 12 Test Dummies vs. CrackerTown Juniors

Now, who's in gold and who's not?

i dont get how this doesnt increase competition and rivalries....it actually makes sense

you now get to play good silver teams on your way to the championship game...you now get to play a real regular season...before this people were complaining about not having good teams to play...and once a few silver leagues get removed, there will be even more competition

Why give one side a free ride with maybe 1 or two games to plan for and the other side is like the gold league. I don't see the point in this.

Yes the removal is fine with me I am just SO against the fact that the copper team will not have to prove themselves. Why should I have to play stiff competition while the other side does not? Until the removal of leagues this idea completely fails.
