Can anyone give me a quick run down on the B3, I see 2 Oz teams in the tornament, is it the top 2 ranked teams in the country from the previous season that get selected?

Not really Brett. The league winner gets invited to B3, and the cup winner gets invited to B3. So some years it's two teams, but other years it's only one. Also, previous winners of B3 get a perpetual invite - Australia doesn't have any (yet), but if we did it could be more than two.

Both of those things (winning the league and winning the cup) have a huge influence on your ranking, so it's usually very highly ranked teams that participate - but that's only an effect of qualifying, not the cause of it. :)

Don't think there's ever been such a long wait for a schedule update...

yeah ... I don't know what they have done to the site but it is just about the worst I can ever recall. Surely "Active Bids" can't be the only problem otherwise they could just disable it.

They should just pay for more processing power and problems would reduced/fixed. It's not that hard.

Probably just trying to make money. I guess we have no idea about their budget, their profit and loss statement. But yes, I'd prefer a smooth running site over the Active Bids idea.

well at the end of the day, an unstable and/or buggy site will lead to less players, which means less income if you assume supporters would always be around the same percentage of players.

Totally agreed.

If this game was making a profit, say 50k/year, what would you pay for it?

given so much is behind it will be interesting to see what they prioritise and what gets delayed (more). You'd hope they would do the training update as priority and push the cup next round out until later ... but still needs to be done well before saturday games so people can take in to consideration who their cup opponent is

This is ridiculous! I had a busy day yesterday so I only briefly checked mid game how my team was doing and we were killing the other team. First time I logged back in since then is now and no training updates + tournament schedule LOL.

I had to triple check I actually beat the previous team to find out if I actually made the next round haha
