Here we go Again. Don't bash Gold until you play your first season there. Then you'll change your mind just like everyone else that had Ideas just like this.

this thread gets my official 'LOL'

I'm not going to expand on that as nothing more needs to be said.

You do realize they play each other, right? With 32 teams, normally at least that many will have losing records.

I'm not sure what the heck you're saying...if you're trying to say they're bad teams b/c they have a losing record in Gold, then you're very naive. I don't see anybody in silver4 that would have a winning record in gold...MAYBE the Agency, but that's likely a stretch.

Dunwich Demon Hunters would definitely put up a fighting shot as well as Sacramento.

PING, I said above this is only offered up as a way to bring the most competitive teams together to compete vs each other. No one called anyone a bad team and there is no need to turn this into a bash of your team is better than my team BS.

Hasn't anyone played in any gaming ladders that can relate to what I am trying to say here?

this is supposed to be as close to real football as a computer game can get. do they have a gaming ladder in the NFL? or do they play an actual season?

If this is supposed to be close to real life, then I'd never noticed before.O_o However, I don't like the idea. -1

Ok, then let me discuss your idea.

Currently, the majority of the best teams are already in gold (not all, but it's pretty close).

Secondly, the majority of new owners start in copper, meaning they're already playing each other. Since your system would all be based on the previous season, this would still hold true, as they'd be grouped at the bottom of the ladder.

Meaning, all of the remaining teams would be in silver (or the middle-almost top of the ladder) anyway. So what would your idea do? Would it be used to bunch the best teams into the top silver conferences? If so...doing that will skew your data for the next season, b/c it'll look like a mediocre team in a good division is worse than a below average team who won their easy division.

Also, there is a lot of up and down amongst PeeWee teams. A complete reshuffle each year based on the prior years performance likely wouldn't mean quite as much as you may expect.

Well, this idea seems to be a fail here. But it works well with other games.

I agree, the admins have done their best to promote competition at all levels by creating the League system they way it has been created. If you can't win your Silver division how can you really lay claim to being near the best team, even if their was a stat saying so, it would be an lolstat that people just ignored. Their is never going to be a convincing argument that a silver team is better than a gold team unless they have just played in a scrimmage against each other. Cross-League comparison is just generally a bad idea, wait till you've made the move on up to Gold then challenge the "best" teams in games that actually matter.

Ohnoes a teamless trophyless guy said something about the Gold League, FLAMEON!

Who are you talking about? :-)

We are #15 where we have been for 3 seasons in all of GLB PeeWee.

You can start with that and mark the rest accordingly.
