Faction Squads

I know this might have been already suggested before, and that it might interfere with Squad Games, and what not but, why not?
I suggest that we have Faction Squads, like all 9 Squads having there own Squad.
Each Squad would have a Commander, with all people who've played Alleg for over 250 Hours, and are in a squad.
Those people are eligible to join a Faction Squad.

Your would have these Tags:
@IC
@Nix
@TF
@Belts
@Dreg
@Rix
@Bios
@Giga
@GT

And a Commander/Leader of the Faction Squads would volunteer for one Faction and get voted in to lead the squad.
Then once we have all Leaders, we have a MASSIVE DRAFT!
lol, we randomize who picks first to last, then the person who picks first, gets to pick the first person for his Faction Squad.
Then so on, until we get to the 9th squad faction, he picks, then picks again, and we go up the list, then down. etc. etc.

Until all Players who played for over 250 hours or more, and are in a squad, can the draft be done.

And each Month, there will be a Faction Squad Game.
And some other stuff will happen, but I'm running low on time, so I have to end this post. /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />

Yes, it may not be original, but I like the idea. /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" /> /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />

An interesting idea rojo but logistics makes it not feasible. Would rather see Allegnationals instead /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" /> and why is this in code suggestions?

It's Code Bugs & Suggestions.

Anyway, if the Phoenix were to have its own squad, all the inexperienced n00bs will flock to it anyway (and the vets will backstab Nix by NOT joining it). N00bs are attracted to the faction of Nix like vultures flocking to a huge piece of leaky meat.

Thats why he said the leaders of the faction would pick, and people who have played for over 250 hours would be involved

Which brings up another thing, you would need to set up a poll to see if people do want to be involved or not

This suggestion reads mostly like another iteration of the Allegiance Wars events.

The problem with these games is that turnout is usually substantially lower than for SGs as people either get picked for a team they don't want or simply don't have the interest in the competition.

If you want to run something like this, I'm not adverse to the idea but I think keeping the number of teams down would be a smart idea to increase the chances of there being dedicated players enough on each team to play proper games.

Ya I really got to change my avatar, then again I'm too lazy. /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />
Well the reason why I've brought it up is mainly because i'm not available on Sunday's most of the time, which limits me to just play Zone Games...
I just want to play some more proper games as Raveen said, but I can't because Sunday is bad for me...
The only action I get from proper games is ZG's.

But then again the majority of this community are free on Sunday's...
At least I've found out why. /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
