Current seedings
This article have the current seedings of all the teams playing in/signed up for the league. This will get updated when:
- The season is concluded and we have final placements of all teams from the season.
- Teams play up/down matches across the divisions of the previous season.
- New teams of the league play seeding matches so they can get placed in the correct division. You will have to tie or win against an already seeded team to aquire a seeding in this case.
- Cups with similar signup criteria as the season ends. You will have to tie or win against an already seeded team to aquire a seeding in this case.
- The season signups close. the teams that are not signed up will be considered disbanded and have their seeding removed.
New teams without a seeding will display as "Unseeded" and will be considered sharing the lowest seed of the region. Who gets the upper placement between the "Unseeded" teams is completely random. We encourage everyone to play seeding matches (see section 2.d), even if you feel like you belong in the lowest division of your region. You might be wrong about your own level. The season can feel really long if you're in the wrong division.
Once the signups for the next season opens, teams that played in the previous season, but not (yet) signed up for the next season will be [marked]. If they are not signed up when the signups close for the next season, their seeding will be removed. If a team have had their seeding removed, they will have to play a seeding match to get a new seeding. For example, if your team skip one season and then reform for the next one.
The lines show where the divisions of the season are split.
We might use these seedings to decide groups in other contests than the seasons.

I think Vetus is mad they didn't seed for Div 1?
Good luck to everyone this season!

We're trying to get Div 1.

If I take your word for that and expect 2 teams out of 15 being able to compete with us, it's still not worth playing.

I manually seeded Unseeded teams and changed the division splits according to number of signups. That makes "div 2"(actually div 1, since previous div 1 will be named Premiere Divsion) half the size. There are some teams in there that haven't played for a long time and might be replaced with Scurvy/oVictory. It should be a tough division even if it isn't the top division, hope that works out for you guys. It's obviously not possible to make everyone happy, the division splits have to be somewhere.

Looks not too bad, no complaints here
I see a lot of forfeits due to timezone issues. But it is what it is at this point in ns2.

why friendly fire is on? aliens have melee all the time except spikes and spits therefore the aliens always in closest range with marine. AND it will be 9/10 all the time the marines are always gonna hit their own teammate
And today i saw a skulk killed its teammate while biting a resource tower

It takes practice to learn not to kill your teammates.

Is friendly fire on for this season then? Sorry if I have missed this announcement somewhere (I know the possibility was discussed a while back).
Will it be full damage?
Anyway, I think that sort of change deserves a big warning as people will need a lot of practice with it!
Oh and I would also add that from my perspective the seedings for Div 2 look nice and much closer than before.

0.33% damage. Take a look at the (E)NSL Mod thread on the forums.

Swalk, I read that thread. It was not clear that those numbers were anything other than suggestions from Dragon. I really think that you MUST publicise this properly so people know to start practicing with this on. The TWAT guys are pretty active here, and read a lot, and this is a complete surprise to us.

pls put karvalakki down to div 3. we got roflstomped last season and we have not had a single game all summer.

Incorrect seedings wouldn't be a problem if we used the swiss system.

can we get an idea of when default match times are going to be? i don't want another one of this friday newspost and <2 day notice crap.
Just post rules and stuff (how are servers going to work?) with like at least a week notice so we don't have massive argument that delay the start of the season. Even if its not final, at least we get an idea of what to expect

"It takes practice to learn not to kill your teammates."
That is the most responsible explanation reply that i ever had that make me calm down with ease

Kaneh, the default times will be the old EU default times. 20 CET. There will have to be flexibility with scheduling the matches though.
The rules have been updated(it has been here the entire time), and on top of that it's liked to in one of the recent newsposts.

Sam | one brit too many
Question: Why the friendly fire? Is it really needed? Personally I am quite happy with where aliens and marines are at and I think the FF could potentially ruin the game.

Bonkers | Team Work & Tactics
I was worried about FF at 1st - but when you see that it takes 3 full sgs to the face of a marine with level 3 weapons to kill him its not really a big thing. I did see someone accidentally shoot down an obs though in game - but I don't think it will make a major difference to anything.

With FF flamethrowers and GLs go from unviable to DONTEVENTHINKABOUTIT.

I used a GL in a scrim last night w/ friendly fire just fine.
Good change imo.

Flamethrowers and GLs don't do FF damage. That was one of my concerns, too, so I checked with Dragon on it.

Well said, tenderloin

GLs and Flamethrower are the 2 weapons where I would have wanted the FF the most, besides mines and nades, the rest is irrelevant.
