Letters will be updated with names once a spot has gone.

Sign up rules form - Repost the following here or to me in a message:
Preferred letter:
Region:
Format (PS3/XBox):
In game ID:

Rules:
Matches: 3
Rounds per Match: 3
Timer: 60 seconds
Health: Normal
Level: Random

Each week you will get new fixtures with a new group. These will go out on Thursday/Friday and must be completed before the next week. The assigned play day is Sunday, arrange a time with your opponent(s) before hand. Matches CAN be played before or after this (See. "Missed Games"). If you all wish to play as fixtures are posted, feel free to do so.

Reporting Scores:
Scores must be reported to update the league and ALL 3 matches must be played.
If a score is disputed we will ask for proof. This can be in the form of a picture or a trusted 3rd party who spectated the game.
For this reason I suggest the host using kumite and someone using a phone/camera to snap a picture.
Players found to be involved in multiple disputes will have a refere placed to spectate all of their games. All players are innocent till proven otherwise.


Missed Games (Subject to Change):
If you cannot make the specified day/time it is up to you to get in contact to with your opponent(s) to reschedule. Failure to do so will result in a penalty.
Once contacted it becomes the responsibility of the receiving party to aid you with sorting out a new game. Failure to do so (if the first party provides proof) will result in the receiving party being penalised.

Hey guys,

Longtime DOA player and new to the FSD community but I'd like to put something forward to everyone.
Are there people whom would be interested in an online weekly league? It would work a lot like a football (soccer) league in that you'd have both home (P1) and away (P2) games and receive points each week towards the league. This is obviously just one idea for it if people are indeed interested.

Obviously as it is out on 2 consoles we'd have 2 different leagues if both had the following for it.

So my initial suggestion if you've read this far would be as follows:
Weekly games (perhaps vs. 3 different people on a certain night, or some rescheduled night if both players aren't available).

3 Matches of 3 rounds.
Each match awards 1 point.
All 3 games must be played (So you can get a 3-0 or a 2-1 to spread points better).
Laggy matches will attempt to be replayed with a different host (you never know). Failing so both sides will be awarded a 1-1 (in essence a draw).
Match settings:
Rounds: 3
Health: Normal (Updated)
Time: 60 seconds.
Level: Random.

Poll open for 7 days and made public to see the response.
I know online is far from optimal but it could be a little bit of fun within a community and build up some more interest in DOA 5.

As a final note, to allow people who missed out on the league new ones could start if enough people are queued up or we could reset them every month or so.

Sounds like it can be fun since I get tired of playing randoms online. This can be a good change and keep me wanting to play the game. So count me in.

Sounds fun, but the settings shouldn't be set to largest, it makes the game too long, and makes for random holding, since people know they can screw up. I suggest small or normal, so people can better their defense, when facing each other. Makes for more exciting battles too

I was actually going to suggest that as well. Figured largest or large may be too long.

Updated life to Normal.

If interested parties could post their preferred platform (PS3/XBox) so I could get an idea of numbers on each it would be much appreciated <3

I like to play:) PS3 for me, please count me in. Though if I could request points for rounds, rather than just matches? -So a match of 3-2 rounds would work out to for example 5-2 points? (2 for the match +1 for each round) I'm just trying to save myself from going 2 months before I get my first point - lol

Had thought about this but it may be the case that some just don't have the numbers to be a regional league. It all comes down to numbers on this bit.

I'll start drafting up a league and setting up fixtures as we have some good interest. This means I can just drop people into slots in the table.

Well I shall say for now.
I'll try finalise names this weekend/beginning of next week.
Draw up the league mid-week.
First games will commence late next week (Thursday - Sunday).

I'll be asking for PMs with name/region/format soon so we can pretend this is being well organised =D

Edit: From what I've seen so far PS3 has the highest turn out and the US has the highest regional representation. If we are going to do regions I'd really like them to be 20 people and if some regions have 40 people set up 2 leagues (1st Division and 2nd Division) with people able to move up and down between them but that is something for the future really.

Assume for now that on the basis on numbers we'll have a single league that will run for 1-2 months and then we'll re-evaluate people wanting to join and regional leagues as the DOA community grows.
