CC Super League and CC FA Cup Main Thread

I have just added a suggestion from Esquire (thanks) to freeze the player column on the scoreboard when scrolling right.

Nice! Make it easier to navigate using phone or tablet.

You may have noticed the new Fastest Player box (see note for details) - there is a prize for faster player in league at end of season so this is to track that.

It is currently not an average so just picks the lowest value in the Days column. At the end of each week's games (when everyone has played their matches) this will give a true indication of fastest player.

Just ran some data analysis and next season we will cull the banned map list but may also prevent Random Map from selecting them as I can see the big maps are going the distance.

The key offenders being

Spanish Armada
Hive
Das Schloss
Conquer Man

What that means is we will never get banned maps as a result of a Random Map from next season onwards at least - thoughts welcome, this is not set in stone.

Probably a wise decision to maintain a schedule with leagues

[chipv]

Speaking of schedule, have added full schedule to OP : https://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=89&t=242909

We'll run three SL seasons + FA Cup per year which should give people enough rest time in between and reduce pressure at the end of season.

We have less leagues than before so that means you'll still be able to get to the top faster.

Just added another request from Esquire (thanks ) - this is the equivalent of the Usain Bolt cup.

The new chart you see at the top of the scoreboard is a comparison of how fast the leagues are completing their matches.

League 7 get a move on

...cull the banned map list but may also prevent Random Map from selecting them ...

If you just want my preference, I'd vote No.
However, if preventing Random selecting the banned maps makes the organisers' jobs easier then I'd support it.

From a player's perspective, I love the novelty of getting the odd Schloss or Gallipoli in random.
I've played all seasons and I've ever felt a Random banned map or early call on a tie spoiled the flow

Thats a good point, did some quick math here:

If the format was the same for S25 then half the games was random, so 3900 ish.

S25:
Das: 11/3900 = 0.3%
Spanish Armada: 24/3900 = 0.6%
C-Man: 16/3900 = 0.4%

So yeah those few banned maps, ofc does not show up that often, so I agree with MrBoom, lets keep random random.
Like it has always been like this, and under the Scottish reign, they played double the amount of seasons, so it can't have been that much of a slow down to have those slow maps show up a few times every season.

Agreed.

Scoreboard changed (only the % completion graph) to indicate % games completion instead of Match completion, that looks better to me.

Curious about how this is calculated, if I see a “2” that means the players took 2 days to complete his match, his first game? If that is the case then the opponent should have the same number either you win or lose.

Days is elapsed match duration = sum of duration of it’s games.

I’m only scoring for completed matches only not partials.

Do you see any anomalies?

Since a match is 2 players, I guess the win prevail as the fastest player per league, correct? The loser do not get credit for fastest match completed?

Sorting is done exactly per the tie-breaker description.

Yes head to head will take precedence in this case.

Ok thanks, lastly how the live results work? Does the sheet has a timer (like every hour) to check for completed game/match?

Why does the banner depict American Football when this is based on UK football?

[chipv]

I have reworked the fastest player stat to make it a better indicator:

Lowest Days AND highest matches played (instead of Lowest Days AND matches played > 0)

This means we will always have a measure from players who have completed the most matches which is cleaner.

I have updated the notes and OP also. (Fastest Player, League, Position)

Because it went from a Scottish regime to an American one, hehe

[SoN!c]

Why does the banner depict American Football when this is based on UK football?

These are "superheroes". It's based on a few gfx that depict a "box" version (the original theme) like this one;



Superheroes battling in superleague to become the best of the best...

This "box" is 100% original made and it tries to be 100% international (that is why the letters are custom made, in some made up language and it has "conquer club" and "club conquer" in english and french in small writing. And the dice are not accurate as you never know what dice you are gonna get...

I've never seen American football players wearing a superhero cape..

I keep telling those guys here in the States to stop calling this “Football”, they are 98% playing with their hands…but they don’t want to listen
