[Announcement] Association Changes - Coming Feb. 3rd

[Lian]

Hi Managers! Starting next season we will be making some changes to Associations tournaments.

We’ve heard a lot of feedback and suggestions regarding Associations and we’re making the changes to encourage fair play and improve the experience across all Top Eleven competitions.

Rewards Conditions

From the upcoming season starting on Feb.3rd, you’ll only be able to collect Associations division rewards at the end of the season if:

1) Your team gets promoted to a higher League level.
2) You’ve participated in all four tournaments with the same Association.
3) You didn’t leave/join/change Associations after the kick off of the first tournament on the 5th day of a Season.

A Manager should satisfy all conditions in order to be eligible for their division rewards. Rewards are distributed individually. If you have a FA member who didn't promote, your rewards won't be impacted.

Keep in mind that all changes in members of FAs should happen ahead of the first tournament during the first week of the season. Any leaving and joining after that would eliminate a Manager’s possibility of earning FA rewards.




[[[[ Tie-Break Rules - COMING LATER, RELEASE DATE TO BE DETERMINED ]]]]

Tie-break rules for each tournament will be changed. If two FAs have the same amount of points, the tie-break rules will be as follows:

1) Goals scored during finals.
2) Away goals during finals.
3) Total goals scored during the tournament
4) Total away goals scored during the tournament
5) A fewer number of yellow/red cards.
6) Total Associations points.


Thanks as ever for your continued suggestions. Keep them coming and good luck in upcoming tournaments!


* add on
- Just to indicate that, even if you leave an FA and rejoin the same one after the first week, you won't be eligible for the division rewards.
- If you finish in Top 8 but not promote because you are in the top of the server, you'll receive the rewards.

No more PK rounds. :P

Translated in Spanish too.

Just a note we're aware how these changes impact community-run tournaments and are working on a way to keep them running.

How about us who are in the top level of our servers and in 1/3 seasons the level doesn't go up at all? Do we receive the rewards if we finish top 8 yet don't move up? :P

[Ποσιδονας]

You mean that this season we ll get the reward even if not promoted?
Also, what is the difference between 2) and 3) ?

Yes if you finish in Top 8 you'll receive the rewards.

With a harder and radical decision, the league does not jump, do not rise, not participate in the tournament, do not join, saying,
