CCSL: The Invincibles

With 6,680 Season 16 Games mostly completed with a few still playing out it's high time we looked at this Seasons POTENTIAL INVINCIBLES! The Players who are still on course to navigate an entire Season without losing a Match Up! Note, a 2-2 DRAW is not a defeat and will keep you on course to become an INVINCIBLE!

But, before that. CHANGES for Season 17 of the Super League are now OPEN! As we approach the end of every Season, Players have a choice of changes they would like to make. To do any of these, just follow these simple steps:

1. HOME MAP CHANGE - Follow the Link below and Post on the Forum HOME MAP CHANGE to YourNewHomeMapChoice
2. REST SEASON - Season 17 will run in January and Febuary. If you have major stuff on and you want a Season Off just follow the Link below and Post on the Forum REST SEASON. You will hold your League Position. You can do this 3 Times every Calendar Year.
3. WITHDRAWAL - If you have had enough of the Super League entirely, follow the Link below and Post on the Forum WITHDRAW. You will be removed from the Super League at the end of this Season.


MATCH DAY 15:
Anila8 will set up Match Day 15 in around 4 hours from the time of this Mail. To check out who you are playing go to the 'S16 Results & Fixtures' Tab on the 'LIVE' Scoreboards which has been filtered to only Match Day 15.

THE INVINCIBLES:

We will work our way through the Players still in the running to become an Invincible over the next few HIGHLIGHTS. For a full list of potential INVINCIBLES, check out the 'Invincibles' Tab on the 'LIVE' Scoreboards.

NooNooNinners, League 13, 11 MU's Completed, 69% Completed, 6 Wins, 5 Draws
5 Match Ups left to complete NooNoo is still going! 5 Points Clear at the Top, a Match Up in hand over 2nd Place it looks like the only thing left for Noo Noo to play for this Season is winning the League in style as an INVINCIBLE! But saying that, he has made it up to League 13 without actually winning a League Title. Could we be looking at an implosion of EPIC PROPORTIONS????? Watch this space, an INVINCIBLE LEAGUE WINNER=HERO, LOSE THIS LEAGUE=ZERO.......

emilywink, League 16, 10 MU's Completed, 71% Completed, 7 Wins, 3 Draws
Kaiser_Tottenham, League 16, 10 MU's Completed, 71% Completed, 7 Wins, 3 Draws
WOW, we have 2 POTENTIAL Invincibles in League 16! Both have an IDENTICAL RECORD and both have 4 Match Ups left to complete! This could not be any closer! In one of Kaiser_Tottenham's Match Ups it looks like it will 100% finish in a Draw so he only has 3 Match Ups left to Navigate. But, both these players will probably want that 1st Spot in the League to give them the 3 League Super Promotion that will see them rocket through the Leagues faster. Nothing to seperate the 1st and 3rd Seeds! They have a 7 Point advantage over 3rd place so this looks like a classic 2 horse race to become an Invincible, League Champ....or BOTH!

sealordgalandral, League 18, 10 MU's Completed, 63% Completed, 7 Wins, 3 Draws
10 Match Ups down with 6 to Play! And in 2 of those he is 1-0 and 3-0 UP! It's sealordgalandral's 2nd Season in the Super League and this is him going after his 2nd Title! 4 Points Clear and 2 Match Ups in hand over 2nd Place he is not going to lose this. Seeded 1st, Ranked 700 Points above the Average Rank of a League 18 Player sealordgalandral is set to live up to his 1st Seed Status by winning this League in style! Congrats Sea Lord!

Okay Troops, INVINCIBLE Coverage will continue on Monday. Watch out for your Match Day 15 Invites later today and have a GREAT WEEKEND!

Id say keep the same rules.. even with auto-snap.. one can get an unlucky streak on only 3 games so its good to get a 2nd chanse on 3 more later on..
getting or not getting the snap never was a huge advantage anyways compared to who goes 1st..

I totally agree with anonymus, personally as well I’d say the current setup is extremely enjoyable too

Not sure what the alternatives will be, and I am all for a larger Premier League, but the current set up is something I do like.

[Wile E Coyote]

Hi folks, i'm unsure as to the reasons for the change... there is something about playing someone twice that makes this work. Auto snap would be a nice addition though. The main issue is people going first get a better shot at winning, although not sure there is much that could be done about that!

[RomLOL]

I think fewer but larger leagues would be good.

Currently, in a league of 10 we play 9 players in 4 games 2 times. 9 x 4 x 2 = 72

If had leagus of 24 players and played 1 home game, 1 away game and 1 random against 23 opponents only once then we would each play 69 [wahey!] games.

[guzmanuk]

I agree with anonimous comment. Let's keep the same rules - The snap does not change things much, the main difference is the advantage of playing your favourite map when playing "home".
If you want to speed up the tournament, I suggest to limit the number of rounds per game to 20 or 30, as well as allowing players to resign after 10 rounds.

Completely agree with keeping the games as is and PL table relatively the same 10-12.

[Clanlord Carl]

Having an autosnap doesnt change much as it is all about the home maps. Just means you could release to both players at the same time.

[Tviorr]

Dang. Would really prefer that it stayed the way it was. - Its a bit wonky, but I like it. - Auto snap is generally a good thing,

but is it completely impossible that it could be disabled for a tourney by the tourney organizer, or even just for the Super League and Cup??

Other than that, I also like the current format even if we cant have the auto snap disabled for the Super League/cup. 2 home games and 2 random games make for a home game feeling that would be lost, if it was all comprimated into some sort of single face off containing both home and away maps - whatever the exact setup might end up on. - I think that enough home game advantage remains to justify keeping it home and away.

On a slightly different note, if CC could put in a feature for tourneys where first and second turns could be decided in the tourney settings then it would be interesting to remove the luck factor here. - Interesting possibilities would open. - The most obvious would be to do 1 home and 1 random with first turn and 1 home and 1 random with second turn, but with the current set up of home and away matches, the home advantage could be driven home by doing a 3-1 first turn advantage (preferably 2 first turns on the randoms then, or even 4-0 first turn advantage for the home games. - I would think 4-0 (or rather 2 first turns on home maps) would have unintende consequenses as maps can be chosen where first turn is an almost overwhelming advantage (Mogul is certainly one such), so doing 2 set first turns on both home maps would lead to competitive players choosing the same 5-10 home maps. - I digress though. This isnt possible presently and I havent heard any cc plans to explore this. Just for future reference, though, Im thinking a 3-1 first turn home game advantage with 1 first turn on the home map and 2 first turns on random maps would be very interesting. - It could also be possible to do 5 games in a match and have 3 random games with 2-1 first turn advantage.

Again most of it not relevant, but I happen to live in a dimension slightly different to the normal one, so

I agree, I think the rules are good as is and the whole auto-snap issue is overrated.

[fishbonex]

If you want to speed up the tournament, I suggest to limit the number of rounds per game to 20 or 30, as well as allowing players to resign after 10 rounds.

This is a great idea, some of the games can run insanely long.

[denominator]

I agree with most of the above comments, leave it as is even with the auto-snap. The format works well and the only change will be expediting the invite system, but having two matches against each player in the group is appreciated.

[SuperSian]

Agree a 20/30 round max with option to resign after set amount

sounds like a great idea - sign me up - at the bottom though!

If we go to a limit of the number of rounds per game to 20 or 30 then we could include all maps if we make it 20.

[SoN!c]

What the man says. Doesn't have to change a thing unless you want it to change a thing.

"Just means you could release to both players at the same time." = that's all it means really

[Devante]

Based on what I've read so far, I think keep it the same number of players in each league and agree auto snap doesn't really impact things as much. I also like the idea of bringing in 20 round limits with a resign option and in turn opening up all maps.

[Bad-Ape]

I would agree with others - why not just keep it as it is? I find the BoBSL thoroughly enjoyable and I don't think the auto snap stuff will make that much of a difference

[serram]

I am with most that have written here: keep it as it is, since the autosnap doesn´t really change much. But I think that the question of who has the first turn need to be addressed, maybe by CC as a whole, because in many maps the outcome is really decided in the first turn!

[Kaiser_Tottenham]

[b]Maps[/b]

Since there are maps which are excluded (for lengthy reasons) , i think Random maps/games should be excluded for the same reasons.. because these excluded maps still can appear in random..

A home game should be (4 home maps)

Or either make most maps available with round limit.

[BobbyLama]

I would like to join the league. I'd like British Islands has my home map. Thank you
