Qualx 194 Report post Posted October 15, 2016 https://ReflexLeague.org Beta Season This is a double round robin (everyone plays everyone else, twice) 1v1 competition, with players divided into skill-matched divisions of 8 players each. Your performance in one season will contribute to your placement in the following season. All games are Bo3. Where: Currently accepting signups in EU, NA, AU. We've already got enough people for the league to run in EU and NA, and there's no upper limit, since there can just be MORE divisions. EU/NA/AU players can't apply to regions other than their own, and players can only apply for one region. I'm not sure how many RU players there are and I forgot about RU when I was initially setting this up. I can add RU as a fourth region really easily if there are enough people, otherwise they can enter whichever of EU and NA they ping better to (but may have to play on bad servers). When: Signup closes (beginning of) 27th October, matches start 12th November. Possibly pre-season playoffs between 27th October and 12th November, if necessary to help with division placement. (I'd previously mentioned 5th November as a start date, but I forgot that people would need time to arrange their first games and complain about divisions.) The main season will run for 7 weeks of matches, although it's likely that there'll be a catch-up week at the end. Future seasons will probably be run roughly on a 2 months on, 2 months off basis (as in, 2 months between every season) but don't quote me on that. Map pool: Furnace The Catalyst Pocket Infinity Simplicity Abandoned Shelter Static Discharge If necessary, where possible, players will be allowed to play on performance versions of the above maps. To be allowed, the performance version must be geometrically identical (or near enough) and have identical item layout. It must be created by the original map's creator, or, at the very least, created with their explicit knowledge and permission, and given their authorisation. Each round will have a 3-map subset of this pool. Every player will meet each other player twice over the course of the league, and the map pool for the second match will always be the reverse of the first. Assuming both deciders get played, players will play all 6 maps against every opponent over the course of the season. Cointoss will occur before the first match only, for any pair of players. Winner chooses who is A and who is B. Match 1: A pick, B pick, decider. Match 2: B pick, A pick, decider. A 2-0 match will award 3 points to the winner; a 2-1 win will give 1 point per map. Other Rules The usual spectator rule applies to prevent ghosting. This will be enforced by the league servers, and players joining games without permission may find themselves being penalised. Players will have a week at the start of the season to schedule their first round games, and thereafter games can be scheduled from the beginning of the preceding round. Rounds will be 9 days long, overlapping on weekends. Scheduling will be partially automatic; players will be able to specify timeslots when they will be available, and then the autoscheduler will assign match times at mutually convenient times. If this can't be resolved, then players will be expected to negotiate a time, or an admin can be asked to adjudicate. If Reflex's rulesets have been updated by the start of the season, players will use the competitive ruleset. If not, players will be allowed to agree with their opponent to use experimental or competitive. It hasn't yet been decided what the default will be, since there are good arguments against both. See the season page for the complete exciting array of rules! Streams Obviously because of the slightly unpredictable nature of the scheduling, it's not possible to guarantee that any particular game will be streamed. Players may be asked to schedule a game with a streamer if it's of particular interest. This may be subject to change. At least some games will be streamed by ArenaFPS (https://twitch.tv/ArenaFPS). Anyone else interested to stream should get in touch once the match lists have been generated. Prize Pool No prize pool as yet. If you want to donate, get in touch with me on Discord because I don't yet have a separate paypal to take donations, and I tend to get paid for my work through paypal, and I don't want stuff to get confused. Sponsors If you're a company and you want to donate server time to the league, or money/stuff to the prize pool, I can discuss about providing advertising space. Adverts must be image-or-text-only (no bullshit multimedia stuff) and must be small files. They'll be placed unobtrusively, most likely in the unused side areas of the site, and I'm not going to try and bypass ad-blockers. Files will be served from my server so that I can be sure that I'm not referencing malicious files. Something Else This is the thing I forgot to mention. 22 MnstH, Owl, Thaylia and 19 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Owl 273 Report post Posted October 16, 2016 EU BOYS LETS ADD! Don't worry about your skill level, we already have 3 divisions so the more people in the pool the evener the divs will hopefully get.

capodecima 86 Report post Posted November 3, 2016 I think its actually pretty smart. Many new players in the league, good force them play "all" famous/competitive maps. That avoid ppl stuck to 2 maps which they play all time and on others are bad/ignore them. 1 Jaguar reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For example: https://reflexleague.org/competition.php?season=1&page=tables You can just change the region to check everyone out.

Your replay is propably in wrong directory. That "Replay old version...." message is about the background "demo" you see in menu. Atleast i see that message everytime i launch reflex.

Jaguar 417 Report post Posted December 20, 2016 Yeah @dare - check that the 623.rep file is in the right location. It should be in the 'replays' folder in the game's working directory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
