IFL Pre-season Setup Complete
Posted: Tue Nov 05, 2019 6:37 pm
Folks,
We are a go to begin the IFL season next week Monday (11/11). All rosters are in the system and the schedule is made. Here's a list of semi important stuff:
Matchups
The matchmaker tool should be functional. If you are a captain, please go to the IFL site (http://ifl.duelingzone.org/) and click the Managers link in the top link bar. Then procede to fill in your fighters for week 1. Please ping me on Discord (or respond here if you like) if you get any errors.
Venue
For the duration of the IFL season we will be closing down the Annex. The IFL garden will be created in its place. Any dueling night that would usually be in the Annex, will now be in the Garden. The sport specific venues (the arena, outback and twilight isle) will continue to each host 1 night a week and will hold regular duels as well as IFL duels.
There is no need to change regular duel challenges. Using ?chal x [sport] [opponent] will simply create a duel in the garden instead of the annex. For IFL duels though, there will be a shortcut you can use: ?ifl [opponent] From that the bot will fill in the rest, including the appropriate venue for the night. Please use that command for all IFL duels as it will make it easier for me to pull results from the rhydin.org database and insert them into the IFL database.
Playoffs
With 5 teams in the league this year, we will run a 3 team playoff to determine a champion. The team to finish 1st will get a bye while the teams in 2nd and 3rd fight it out to see who faces them for the championship.
Rank Increase
As always, Trainees are eligible to advance to Flyweight upon earning their first win.
Fly, Middle and Heavy weights will be eligible to advance upwards 1 rank upon earning 2 wins.
A trainee may advance all the way up to Middleweight if they rack up 3 wins.
When you are eligible for a rank increase you or your team captain may post a request in this thread and I'll take care of it from there. You may not use the perks (aka mods) associated with said rank increase until it has been requested and approved.
Free Agents
I haven't listed any FA's yet. If you are interested in being on the FA list, please respond to this thread or ping me on Discord. You may enter a character into the free agent pool even if you already have 2 characters on teams in the league.
DoF Impact
Since DoF has joined in on the no loss insanity, all duels from IFL WILL count towards your DoF records. Obviously losses will not.
I believe that's everything, but please post any questions I didn't address.
