Well with the first 6 season.s over and from what I read on this thread it seems to me that its still SNAFU, and I realy dont understand why it should be this way when there are so many examples whereby Inno could have taken a structured setup towards Guild Rankings.
The most prime example as i'm English, would be the English Football Leagues
At the top is the single division of the
Premier League (level 1, which is often referred to as the "top-flight"), containing 20 clubs. Below the Premier League is the
English Football League (EFL) (formerly 'the Football League'), which is divided into three divisions of 24 clubs each:
The Championship (level 2),
League One (level 3), and
League Two (level 4). The 20 clubs in the Premier League and 72 clubs in the English Football League are all full-time professional clubs. Before the establishment of the Premier League in 1992, the Football League, as it was called then, included all 92 clubs, in four divisions.
(this part was a paste and copy)
This system would have fitted very well into the game we play, however the leagues would have to be locked for each 6 season, and at the end of the 6 seasons then those at the bottom of the league get religated and visa-versa for the top guilds in the lower league.
At present we have lower leagues encroaching into the upper leagues mid way through the 6 seasons, this in turn causes a misconception of guild ability, and further fustration when they are the matched up against a guild that is structured for power in the higher league.
Having the 6 seasons locked for the duration would now make match making a far easier afair, there would be no reason why two guilds would end up fighting in a season(s) twice over, unlike English footbal where the season is over a longer period and can afford a home and away match making.
With this said I will not accept any retort from Inno saying it cant be done, for which I say " Do you think the FA (Football Association) sit down and use pen and paper to work out the team. matching" not in a hells chance they use a computor program.
Come on guys stop fluffing around and get this sorted Please
