Your decision has no mitigation at all though. For example, the 78th completed the first Two seasons, but were unable to complete the 3rd season as we had internal and real life issues. So the fact we had 2 active seasons seem to count for nothing. 1 season where we had to leave early, we don't get chosen, seems to be a bit unfair.

Also, with the amount of regiments that are interested, I really don't get why there isn't a League 3, you did it for the last Two seasons. Without it you create unnecessary friction.
Maybe they don't have a league 3 because of money or time. It takes quite a lot of organization and money to make sure all the fixtures are played and scores updated as well as running the servers.

From your list, that's 12 Regiments your not letting in, I think it would be different if it was 1 or 2, but not letting 12 teams in.. I think its bad for the community.
9th
44th
59th
4e
3rd
VL
24e
19e
2pp
Preobraz_LG
78th
8th_MGR

Another reason new regiments should get a chance to play hm? 78th already played 2 whole seasons and pulled out during the 3rd, now some new regiments have the chance to play.
And there's no 3rd league, because last time we finished the 3rd league with 5 of 12 regiments. We want full leagues at the end, that's why we decided to make 2 leagues with 2 more slots each.

If new regiments are supposed to get a chance to play in NWL, how come 2pp, 44th, 59th, 19e etc. were not accepted?

The answer is already there. And I didn't said new regiments, I mean regiments which weren't in NWL before.

Nevermind, like some people already said: Deal with it or don't, but the decision won't change. Matchschedules will be posted today by Brot. :)

For those people who can't understand our decision:

The follwing regiments signed up:
- Bold green marked regiments are accepted
- Red marked regiments were in NWL before (under a different name probably) or a regiment has the same leader now

GGR_Nr4
Nr12
15th_YR

78th
8th_MGR
32e
2pp
Preobraz_LG
23rd
21o
12pp

24e
19e

VL
93rd
9th
44th
59th

4e
3rd

No you can probably see our choice was based on regiments which are older = stable like the 21o or known through experienced players and leaders (93rd, Nr12). First we eliminated all regiments which are marked red here. Afterwards we chose 8 regiments from the remaining regiments.


I think thats why

2pp was not in NWL before, and most of our members were not in NWL. As for Crumpets (the leader of 2pp), he may or may not have been in NWL before but not with the reg he created.

What about the 79th? Not sure if he created it but I remember them leaving NWL last season and he led it for sure, ah well, match schedules today! Looking forward to seeing who our first opponent is!

If enough of those regiments who have not been accepted last until the new sign up, we can talk about a full 3rd league again.

Sounds like few people think we chose the regiments based on nationalities..  ::)
