ENSL 8th Season Signups Closed & Week 1
Hello,
The 8th ENSL Season signups have now been closed. The division tables can be seen here. The Season will last 9 weeks now with 2 divisions with this schedule and maps. Join our Steam Community to stay informed; I have heard some have mistaken about the week so our schedule page there will be useful.
Week 1 starts now, please schedule your matches.
In this season, we are allowing forfeit replay. This is however only possible if both teams agree, so the team with forfeit is on the other's mercy. Of course sporsmanship is encouraged. However, if you don't show up on the default time (Sunday 20CEST) of the week of the match, you cannot claim forfeit later on. This aroused a lot of confusion in the last season, so every team is now encouraged to take the forfeit just in case, and to pressure the other team to participate.
Important: If a team receives 2 consecutive forfeits, another team with atleast 8 signed up players may take their place in their next match if they won't be able to yield players in that match with. There will be dropouts very likely so making new teams during the season is not bad idea at all.
Remember, on the first week, player join delay does not apply.

I think you are a bit off with the divisions mate!
I would far rather see 3 divisions where the skills are more evenly balanced.
I think there is too big a gap between CRAB/Russia/Quaxy and Sprogga/Flatline/Sauna/DU.
I mean no offence to anyone but I could almost guarentee none of the former stand a chance of winning that division.
The quality of games will not be consistent at all.
And even in the 2nd Division sR and Kiez all have much more experience than the other teams.
How about something like...
Div 1:
Sprogga
Flatline
Saunamen
DU
Div 2:
CRAB
.ru
Quaxy
sR
Kiez
Div 3:
Unit51
NS Force
Totalidy
T2K
TTS
Flamers
I understand this will shorter season, but this actually a good thing because you currently intend to have the season run into the Christmas period which is very bad considering many players are in full-time education and that is a big exam and moving period.
So in summary I feel 3 division would create:
1. More consistent games for respective skill\experience levels. Where any team has a fairly equal chance of winning their division.
2. Fewer forfeits as the season will not drag out until Christmas.
3. World peace! :)

i like the 2 divs, not every team got a chance of winning its div anymore but a good midfield place is also something u can try to achieve :d
and for me having 7-8 games feels more like a season than 2-4 games at max. u can allllways win a alien round vs. anyone with some practice! :D
happy season everybody
