Sorry guys, in one of the games [SL] Feuerkugel (Allies) v Jasta 11 I picked the wrong side...can someone restart the game?

Really sorry...*hides in a dark corner*



This system is proving chaotic don't worry you're dfinitely not the only one who's done that

I think in this situation in the future a squadron leader from one of the teams needs to create the new game...although this time I've done it:

Its too bad there isn't a way that the squad leader could enter all his teams participants himself. That would most likely eliminate the problem.


This is just a thought, but we could define games as home or away. Home teams make a challenge game including the players he selects, whilst the away team sends a list of four active players. That way, one of the squadron leaders has to e-mail another squadron once with a name list, and recieves one list to set up the challenge game himself.

Would that work?



Think you might have come up with the answer there Lone Wolf.......sounds like a jolly good plan to me!

The fixtures for the tournament are all printed in advance, so it can be organized rather easily. If we have an amnesty this round (keep trying to set up the relevant games until they all work!) we'll implement that idea for next week methinks.....



Setting up challenge games really won't help with the problem of players mistakenly signing up for the wrong side though. It would only limit who could sign up for a given game and that is not the issue here. Furthermore, it requires both teams to have a specific list of players for a given game. I think this would create extra work for squadron leaders. It would be necessary to contact the players and get a reply back to verify that they are available and interested in that game. I like the password method, even if the sign-up period is only 48 hours, because I can notify everyone in my squadron with a single e-mail that there is a game available along with the password so that any of them that are interested in that game can jump in.
