Very cool. Thanks for the quick response

Sooo since there are only 3 teams now in D3 how is that going to work? since for some reason D4 teams need to have 2 teams in 1 division...cause that makes absolutley no sense...Crossfire, Venom, thunder, play one of your teams up a division instead of playing yourselves.

[wildcat65gt500]

Why would we play up a division when not ready to play that division. Would you jump to a higher level your not ready for just to help those other teams out? Not trying to start anything but it makes zero since to play up a division just to help that higher division out.

[blackychan]

i would do it to get better
i wanted to jump to D2 this year.
you play up you get better faster

[blackychan]

waiting till you ready to play a division, is a slow track to talent progression.

[wildcat65gt500]

Thats what practice is for. Not to mention (in my teams case) we have only practiced together 3 times and are a brand new team with rookie level players. Working your way up the ranks may take longer but you will be a much more prepared team and not waste money on events where you are not ready.

Regardless, I feel your pain for lack of teams in D3. Most teams around here that get out of the rookie division either play national events or disband. Sucks to be honest but gotta do whats best for your team.

[blackychan]

Oh my bad i thought you guys had established a team last year. i didnt realize you guys were LNIB so to speak lol.

D3 and higher is a tough sell in the NW. I wish it was easier, but guys like myself and others suffer, becuase no one wants to make that jump. They dont want to be someones possible punching bag all season. Take IK for example cant win a damned thing to save thier lives and they go to Canada and win everything and now are looking to play D2 up there but if they came back to D3 Im willing to bet they would get their ***** handed to them. Its just the way things are. It was so hard to get the 4 team signed up for the last event at the end of the year. I made so many phone calls and texts it was unreal trying to get the upper divisional players to come out and throw down. The WCPS is a great series and I want to play in but at the same time Im burnt out playing local events in a way.

[wildcat65gt500]

Ya, last years team was a bit of a flop and we have reorganized and rebuilt 2 solid squads, but still need some experience before bumping to d3.

100%% The only reason they went and won is BECUASE they were a punching bag. They dont realize how much better they get getting beat by better teams, untill they start playing people that dont. Agreed, the WCPS is awesome, great people awesome vib but it doesnt provide much/anything for people that take PB seriously and want to go somewhere. The NW is were D4 teams go to die. Any team in higher divisions around here did not move up the ranks (minus notorious). They jumped. I hope the players along with WCPS can bring something to change this.

lol what? Were you geing sarcastic?

[stjimmy13]

I imagine with the huge ammount of D4 teams this year that there will be more D3 next year. I plan on bumping every year until I pull last place, but starting at D5 makes sense to me :/

On another note, WCPS poster, does that mean that D5 will be playing on a 5-man sized field?

Lol none at all. Right from behind haha. This thread is so off topic though. What kind of lights are you getting skylar? Like loud *** generator lights?

[impulseballer42586]

We are looking into the lights and trying to avoid the loud generator style where you can't hear yourself think

We would all like to think that "next" season there would be fist full of D3 rosters and players but there wont be. There never is.
