In the spirit of thread splitting, I&#039;m double-posting to restart this thread.<br /><br />I do feel like the season takes too long, but I am also a huge fan of playing everyone at least once, and I don&#039;t really feel like playing more than 1 game a week is possible.&nbsp; If we use Fast&#039;s idea of &quot;play your games whenever&quot;, then we&#039;ll get into situations where we have to threaten forfeits to get teams to play, and I have a feeling that most games will be left until the last minute.&nbsp; Maybe we could also steal ZDDL&#039;s &quot;you have to have X games played by Y or we&#039;ll forfeit some of them&quot; policy.<br /><br />I don&#039;t know if we need to keep the invite list up.&nbsp; We initially wanted it to thwart behavior that hurts the league (like the issue we had with Caboose... and allegedly the entire team... throwing games to change the playoff picture), but I guess we can just explicitly suspend such players.&nbsp; It&#039;s pretty stupid for a league that wants more players to have an exclusive invite-only list, haha.<br /><br />I agree that 4 divisions in an 8 team league is a little useless.&nbsp; What do you guys think about not playing every other team, and having a more conference-oriented schedule?&nbsp; LordBritish and Stallion suggested playing a bunch of games within your own conference, then having the Masterbowl be a big surprise.&nbsp; I also like randomizing the team-conference assignments.<br /><br />Any ideas on how to pick maps?&nbsp; Most people hate the ones we&#039;ve played this season I guess.<br /><br />
