Thing that sucks for me is that I can't play at all on Wednesday nights. Tuesday or Thursday would work for me much better than even Monday's. But that's just me.

Voted other. Sunday for TPG and any of the other days for ESL works for me.

I don't know about other pub clans, but I don't think we could field a team twice a week for 2 leagues... whatever league we choose I vote make it sunday as most are already used to being ready for a match on that day.

I have nothing against TPG, but I think ESL is a better move for the community as it is more exposure even if that doesn't translate to more teams signing up, i think it will keep the teams that do play at it longer.

I think it's going to be difficult to get pub clans to adopt ESL right away. The website itself will probably be pretty intimidating. In the event that TPG sticks around, I can see it as being a more relaxed league that teams use to prepare for that upcoming weeks ESL match.

ESL I see as being a smaller league, at least at the beginning, with probably just the current Upper and a few of the Lower teams participating.

That really doesn't matter. As long as you have enough teams to have a balanced season (16 minimum), you can make it work. It's just important that all of those teams actually actively play their matches.

also, if i could add one more thing to my vote.

ESL SUNDAY / TPG any other day

Sunday has become DoD's day. Everyone is used to it and already have schedules for it. ESL will become the go to league, so it should be the one played on Sundays if you insist on doing 2 leagues.

I think ESL becomes the go to league for teams that are still serious about competing, but I don't think it defaults as the most important league for the WHOLE community before a single match is played. I think that takes a season or two.

In my experience, this community is brutally resistant to change (even if it is change they want, or have asked for).
