tbh no one other than a few (me included) thought but they had a pretty solid game against them and almost won, losing on the last minutes... but I'd rather lose to thunder, akk or drugs every season than win mid-level teams through 8 weeks. competitivity doesnt mean winning everytime but to have challenges... or do you think that subpar teams in every major sport tournament have chances of winning?

This issue is this:
People like to win.
People like their friends.
People like to have fun.
We need to differentiate the people in the community. Polls/surveys need to be implemented.
If this idea of a combined division were to take place and everyone voted "for" the idea, the concept of a draft would be the best one. All this talk of an amazing LAN incoming next year sparks discussion and ideas.
What is the current state of competitive DoD?
Should TPG have direction? (Fun or competitive?)
Instead of basing the draft process on "who knows who best", the community votes for the designated captains. Then a ranking system comes into place when selecting players for their team.
eg.
Player: toxinator
Weapons used/preferred: heavy/rifle/3rd
Map awareness: A+
Fragging capabilities: A
Communication: A
Leadership: A
etc.
Peer and self evaluation can come into play here with a simple survey/poll format.
Just some ideas that come to mind. Discuss.

You forgot the rage category, you can't put Rob, D-bo, and myself on a team or Vent would explode.

I only rage in 12 mans, where it really matters to me.

This will be my first time playing in a league in three years, I really don't care what division I am in. Do I expect to win, no not at all. The appeal to me is playing with a bunch of my old teammates and a couple of buddies I have met over the years. I would like to see a larger division, but I can also see where the Leroy's of the dod world would be outraged.

Who actually wants to play the league as a draft? This tournament alone is a disaster, and a season of that would probably kill off half of the community.
I only play this game two days a week, if that. If match nights turned out to be playing with even two people who I don't enjoy playing with...why show up? I don't play this game anymore to win the division. I play it to spend some internet time with the people I've known for years.
