Hej,

As the NSNC (see brackets and schedule) is still going, we are opening the signups for the Eighth ENSL Season. The signups will close on Sunday 14th of this month at 18:00 CEST, after that division tables will be announced shortly.

The system will be the traditional ENSL league system. Every team plays one game per week against every other team in one's division. After the league stage, the two teams with most points in each division play a division Final. This means a division with size of 6 teams lasts 6 weeks. Division sizes will be adjusted depending on the number of clans signed up but it will 1-2 divisions.

Normally every won round gives one point, but we also plan to give 1 extra point for each played match. For example 3-1 game would give 4 points to the winner and 2 points to the loser. Forfeits give the maximum of 5 points. We are using Scale's pointing system again.

Preliminary maps for the next season are the following:

1st Week: ns_lost & ns_tanith
2nd Week: ns_tanith & ns_veil
3rd Week: ns_veil & ns_origin
4th Week: ns_origin & ns_metal
5th Week: ns_metal & ns_eclipse
6th Week: ns_eclipse & ns_lucid
7th Week: ns_lucid & ns_lost
Finals: chosen by the teams from the list above

Not all maps are necessarily used. For the schedule, check this page. Additionally the rules have been updated with small corrections all-around. Nothing major, but re-reading the rules is strongly recommended to avoid confusion.

To signup with your existing team, simply go here and tick the 'Next season candidate' -box from the clan menu.

Here are the instructions just in case you need.

1. Each team member should register an account for these sites.
   
2. The leader should create the team and tick the checkbox called "Next season candidate".
   
3. Each team member should then join the team in question.
   
4. After this, the leader can accept the members in.
   

If you have any questions, just drop me a pm on IRC or use other methods.

Yours,
ENSL Staff
