DivX=same rules as Ranked EXCEPT:

1. Ageing = disabled
2. Team Rating = disabled
3. Team Strength = disabled
4. Team Value = enabled

Matchups and Handicaps would be Determined by the Difference in Team Value. (Under the official Rules both would use Team Rating, FUMBBL ranked uses the Houseruled Team Strength for Matchups and Team Rating for Handicaps)


Summary:

- Finally a decent basis for the Handicap System
- A new hopefully cool basis for figuring out Matchups
- No ageing which means more fun with team development
- No ageing puts some stress on the new Rating System (Team Value)

Work Around for Freebooting issues:

Team Value ignores Cash and Freebooting, and only Rates the Current Team Roster prior to changes after the Match has been Agreed.
So check your opponents Cash and make up your mind if you risk facing a star/wizard or not.

It may work Toby, but its not going to happen, the only thing that can happen to DivX is to test the experimental Vault Ruleset in its entirety, which is of course, dependant on wether Christer and Grum want that...

If you want to play no ageing and TV play in the MBBL league using the PBEM client

This doesnt warrant another flamewar, so we will nip it in the bud right here and now...

Hmm... I actually like that. The only thing is, will JBB understand the Team Value? Plus, AFAIK, the TR is still shown in the HTTP roster... It would need modifications to the gamefinder too, and nothing is really stopping people from checking the oppo's TV when arranging a match.

But all in all, I'd like that.

Edit:

Of course, you could just go around playing DivX and challenging people based on team value, right?

Editedit:

Of course handicaps and such might screw it up, but you could at least try it.

Well it will take some time until the "complete thing" arrives, won't it?

All im argueing for is some new experimental stuff for the Experimental Division.
