A couple of people thought we could improve the RAGL site to provide an easier way to download spoiler-free replays. In case anyone is interested in working on this then the source code is available here: https://github.com/ubitux/oraladder I would quite like a way to automatically pad replay packs ...

From a private discussion on Discord - it would be good to make the rules clearer about how the prize pool will be split. In particular it would be good to explain: What might cause a particular prize not to be awarded (e.g. a small prize pool might mean the season finishers prize is removed) Why th...

From the Official Discord ragl channel: seeing as @upps and @Pinkthoth banned maps in their playoff series (which is not explicitly required and is a kind of gray area), I thought maybe map pick for the playoffs can evolve further? i.e. picking the whole mapset before the match. Or after the first g...

From the Competitive server feedback channel: i talked with .1 a bit about this too and said id bring it up here again, but we have had talks about this in previous seasons as well: please dont let the same map be played twice in a row in a groupstage game, it adds nothing and is boring in my opinio...

Feedback about potentially reintroducing Recruits from the Minions Bravo Discord channel: i think a recruits division is something that should always be included in ragl seasons because of the skill level of some minions players some new players would have not chance of even putting up a fight so th...

Season 11 is not quite over, but since there's only one match left then I thought it would be a good time to collect some feedback. Obviously you can give thoughts about whatever you want, but here are some topics to: Registrations Formation of divisions Balance Map pool RAGL website (ragl.org) Matc...

Week 9 All of the casts for this week are currently on Twitch. That means that the links will die in a few days time. Hopefully I'll be able to replace them with YouTube links instead. Let's start with the final group stage match, which was effectively the Minions Alfa final. Kaution needed one win...

All the S10 maps are in the resource centre - e.g. https://resource.openra.net/maps/39927/ You can find them here: https://resource.openra.net/search/RAGL-X Some of the maps from the earliest seasons might not be there - I remember Kaution having a bit of trouble when he was doing his legacy cast se...

Week 8 This week was the first week of the playoffs, and featured the two semi-final matches. As for last season's highlights, I've made a half-hearted effort to hide the number of games in each best-of-5 by linking to dummy ladder games for any unplayed games. Kav vs Upps (Masters Semi-Finals) Liv...

Week 7 The final week of the group stage saw a burst of activity from players to schedule their matches before the playoffs. Masters Match of the Week Upps produced another match of the week performance - making three in a row! goat vs Upps (Masters) Game 1: http://ragl.org/replay/b4e1e3271ed671ad9...

Week 6 Week 6 was meant to be a busy week since Minions had two scheduled fixtures per player, but it turned out to be the quietest week so far. Masters Match of the Week There were only two Masters games, but both of them were brilliant. It was actually pretty hard to choose between them, but I en...

Week 5 This was another action-packed week with interesting games in all three divisions. Several delayed games were played and several scheduled games were delayed. Masters Match of the Week First up we have last season's Minions B champion against the third place from Masters, Pinkthoth vs Upps (...

Week 4 After last week's lull in Masters this week has seen a bumper pack of quality games. Even some of the games I've not mentioned could have made it into the top three in previous weeks. Masters Match of the Week Many people have these two as favourites for this season's title, and their group ...

So I assume people drop out when they realise they're not doing so well? IMO this isn't usually the case. Most players are happy to try to complete their season even if they're not going to win their division. In Masters then there are usually a lot of players who can get into the top four for the ...
