Do we need a rule to play on official servers? clan leaders poll

[SCGavin]

I'm SCGavin, leader of the Guard of Istiniar (IG) and think that matches should be played on clan servers (1 map on one, 2nd map on other; unless other procedures are agreed upon), and that official servers could be used only if BOTH clans agree.

[dzioOb]

I'm dzioOb, clan leader of REF clan think that official server should be used by first request of any clan. Clan servers could be used only if BOTH clans agree

[Nikephoros]

I'm Nikephoros, Ambassador of Armata Brancaleone (AB) and i think that clan servers should be first choice (first map on one, second map on the other), and that official servers could be used only if BOTH clans disagree, as a last solution.

Official servers should be considered only in case of EXTREME disagreement. Normally, if there's the case of two clans with their own servers, and with a civil behaviour, no one will protest or whine if one round is held in one server, and the second on the other. It's still a good news for those clan who don't have a server, they may rely on it for the tournament.

[Grellenort]

I'm Birkart von Grellenort, clan leader of Teutonic Orden [T] think that matches should be played on clan servers (1 map on one, 2nd map on other), and official servers could be used only if BOTH clans agree.

The reason, most of brothers have a bad ping in on "Native_Pro_League_1-2 server".  (Over 130)   

[BoPoH]

I'm not a clan leader, but I have something to say here.

I suggest League should be played only in official servers. Let me tell why.

It's possible to change server options to grant bonuses in speed, stats and skills for any team.
So, to avoid such situations all games should be played on "pure" official servers, avoiding clan ones.

Thanks.

[Nikephoros]

1) if clans would only think of doing such a thing, they don't deserve to be playing the league.
2) with the faction swap and server swap, this would be quite nullified.
3) we'll sacrifice playability and correctness to somebody's paranoid ghosts.
4) players from other countries will experience constant ping problems and difficulties, all along the league, while others will enjoy faster reflexes and an overall better game. With server swap, both teams will have more or less the same "field" advantage.
5) Changing rules during the game doesn't look like the most correct behaviour. Still, it's a good move for those who don't own a server.

So no, i don't agree.

That's why referees are needed. (even if I couldn't make it to your match... but both of the clans in that match are serious enough so I don't think I was really needed)

Well, referees couldn't see if there is powerstrike 10, not 5 in one team
Or if one team have one-handed skill 200.
It couldn't be really 100% identified on eye. So official servers is the solution.

So no, i don't agree.

This is not paranoid or what else. It's just a fact that any ckan could modify it server any way he wants.
no changing rules for this league thou, that's for future.

If this is the only reason to have an official server, just force the clan to use http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,141038.0.html (vincenzo's admin tool) at least during NPL match. The tool will show to everyone who makes modify in the administrator panel and what is modified

[Mia]

I'm Mia, clan leader of Team Rush Rush (RRush) think that matches should be played on clan servers (1 map on one, 2nd map on other), and official servers could be used only if BOTH clans agree.

[Amadeus]

I'm guitarissimo,RJ clan leader.it wont be fair if one of the clans has ping higher than 100 and the other has20-70.it would be better to play on clan servers.10 rounds on one,10 rounds on other.

[Black_Corsair]

10:5 for official servers

still 9 more clans to vote.

[Black_Corsair]

I will close the poll on Saturday so be quick guys, right now official server is winning.

[Nikephoros]

Maybe i didn't understand the key point of this thread: if the official server option wins, teams will be FORCED to use them if one clan doesn't agree in using clan servers?
