If sea serpents actually produced a park it would most likely have won.
this wasnt the best of parks but it won and thats what matters
But if I would have had the extra time I could have produced something better. But either way, we won. How come everytime I send in a park the other team doesnt. Im cursed...
I do like lots of the ideas thrown around..
And I guarentee you that at least one of the "penalty" rules will be enforced for H2H3.
Here's what I'm thinking.
Every time you forfeit, you still have to put two parkmakers names on it, like Foozy said. The first time you forfeit, there's not really a major penalty.
The second time you forfeit, we take away one of your wins, like Natelox said. So if the team was 2-4 and then forfeits, they become 1-5.
The third time it happens, the team is disqualified from any playoff contention/the rest of the season.
I like the first two ideas, but I would just continue with the removal of wins on subsequent forfeits. It would probably accomplish the same effect anyway and it's not fair to take the opportunity to enter parks away from some of the team if others let them down.
Well perhaps they could still enter parks each week but the team is disqualified from the playoffs. I see your point though that negative wins will probably take them out of the playoffs anyway. It would be shame if parkmakers on the team wanted to make parks but can't. I think the point though is that it's unfair to the other teams when one team doesn't submit parks. And parkmakers could always make a 50x50 park outside of h2h anyway.
Does anyone else think the Serpents are being cheap as hell by forfeiting all their games until the playoffs while everyone else keeps making parks? This way the Serpents dont have to use anyone during the season, and can save people for the playoffs.
I think, although it makes H2H boring, it isn't cheap at all. In fact it's good tactics, why do more work than you have to? They now have alot more time to work on their playoff parks hopefully giving them a better chance at winning.
Does this mean we shouldnt expect a park from the Mean Green in week 10?
I wouldn't know as it's not my turn to go next week and Fatha' is no-where to be found at the moment.
I agree with using up two parkmakers if the park is not entered but if this rule comes into play in H2H3 the 2 parkmakers to a park rule has to be enforced also as a few parks this season have been built by just one parkmaker and I think a lot of teams would do that that next season to save up their best builders.
I don't think DQ-ing should really be necessary though because, as Toon pointed out, taking away a win the second time you forfeit would most likely put the team out of playoff contention anyway.
Damn...under these new rules, the MEANies would only have one win!
I agree about using up members (the ones that should've submitted something anyway...worthless slackers), but not the extra loss. I mean, you've already lost this round, but why should you lose a previous win also? The team's already going to be pissed we just lost this round, so the morale is likely to plummet to "who gives a flying rats ass" level pretty quickly if you start taking away hard earned victories. Trust me, I know, 'cos our team is that personified, or at least half of it.
Maybe it's just me, and my feeble attempt to keep our fragile little squad with more than one win (if these rules were to go retroactive thru the whole season).
Since it seems like it won't, I'll stop worrying, but 2 losses in one week sounds harsh. I say just ban the players from the future seasons, and the rest of the season as well.
Your call though, as it's your competition to regulate.

why, because it forces you to turn a park in, otherwise the play-offs will quickly be out of your grasp. I suggested it because it was a harsh, major penelty that would hopefully MAKE people turn in a park each round. It won't be a problem as long as you turn in a park, so just TURN IN A PARK then you don't have to worry about it.
I had a look at the park...you want my honest opinion?? It sucked.
The archy was bad, all the wrong walls used, just some archy in the middle, then a bunch of tree.s and water, the coaster was pretty bad too, just because it goes underground doesnt mean u can make it as boring as possible, bah.

Wrong way to motivate if you ask me...
I don't recall the purpose of H2H being that we turn in crap, just for crap's sake.
Eh?
Can we start voting on which park deserves two losses also, even if submitted, if it's that bad?
Come on now. We all have better things to do with our time (Iris included as he has to make the aerials) than to look at rubbish. I say, A win's a win, a loss is a loss, and a forfeit is a loss that still uses up members that were supposed to make something. Punish them another way, like not being able to compete in any contests or spotlights ever again. Now THAT's motivation...for some.
