CDL Season 11

I plan on starting this league in a few weeks. I will give it till 7/3/25 for S10 players from A, B, and C Leagues to let me know if they are returning. Once the time is done (or I've heard from everyone), there may be some open spots. Open spots in A will be filled by previous A league caliber players (ones who have played in A and still qualified to stay in A), or I will do a play in of sorts from top B teams to determine replacements (though I doubt we will need this). Open spots in B will more than likely be filled by C league players from S10, with a play in as well. This all depends on who signs up. There may be exceptions to the rule (where someone of B quality returns, they would participate in the play-in as well).

Note, the only thing holding up the draft will be A and B signups. Once this is figured out, I will announce the start of the draft (along with the draft order). Draft show TBD.

C league signups will be open up to the day of the A/B League Draft, and are open to anyone.

Current league cap is 26. C league signups will be limited to the number of A/B league teams.

Players who completed their seasons in CDL10 get priority in spots. Any open spots will be discussed once I hear from the returning coaches.

Relegation and Promotion

The criteria is still the same. Last season we had 13 teams in A, and 13 in B. The champion from C is guaranteed to move up to B, and the champion from B is guaranteed to move up to A. The coach with the worst record in A will be moved to B and the coach with the worst record in B will be moved to C.

Depending on signups, the top performing regular season teams from B and C will have a chance to be promoted as well, in which case the 2nd worst teams in A and B will be moved down to B and C respectively. If the winner of the league was also the top performing reg season team, the next best reg season team will be chosen in this scenario. This is not a guarantee like winning the league is.

 

As of right now:

Moving up to A - Stantonator (B Champ) and whalers (best reg season record)

Moving down to B - kidswasted (0.104 win Pct) and Chris O (0.250 win Pct)

Moving up to B -  niuhuskie (C Champ) and TecmoJon (.750 win Pct)

Moving down to C - LeifErikson (.354 win Pct) and skills324 (.375 win Pct). If there is a play-in for B, both will be allowed to play.

Again, this could change, depending on who is returning, signing up, etc. There could be more or less movement.

 

Sign-ups

C League is more of like a "farm" league, where coaches will choose (via a Team Selection Draft) one of the drafted A/B teams to play a season with, continued with a playoff. The C Champ and the team with the best reg. season record will be promoted to B league the following season, and allowed to partake in the A/B draft. This league is geared more towards the guys who are more novices at the game, especially draft leagues. They can choose a team during the Team Selection Draft that fits their abilities.

C is open to any player whose setup has been CONFIRMED to work (they will have a role assigned to them in Discord). Sign-up deadline will be the day of the A/B League Draft, and cannot exceed the total amount of A/B teams (currently 26).

League spots are for CDL10 returnees first. Empty spots in A and B will be filled by my choice; see first paragraph.

 

Draft News

Once A/B returnees all report, and I fill out the remaining spots, I will post the draft order. 

We are starting a new set of seasons in CDL with CDL11. I decided to make changes to the draft process. CDL11 will have an entirely random draft order, just like how CDL1 was. Starting with CDL12, the draft will be done differently. I haven't completely decided on what to do, but there will be a lottery for the top few picks, instead of going strictly by record. 

As far as the draft show, we will do a post A/B draft show, analyzing the teams and hopefully giving some insight that can help the C league players before their Team Selection Draft.

League Info

Stuff not changing from S10:

- 5 min periods, 10 min OT, 1 min Penalties

- Quicker control and longer range of Goalie

- 0 Team Bonuses and PP/PK bonus

- Warm/Cool Bonus (very slight hot/cold, attributes in the Edit Lines screen will be accurate)

- Small Home Team Bonus in the Playoff ROM (+1), to make home ice a little more meaningful.

- Reduced Penalty Shot timer

- Goalie Boosts - +1 to Agl, +1 to DfA, +1 to PkC (previously +1 Agl, and +1 to all Stk/Glv in CDL1-9). All Stk/Glv will be normal classic values.

Rules

Warning! There are glitches in the game. A majority of them are unavoidable. Some of them are able to be triggered. In this league, anything goes. If a glitch causes a goal against you, you are free to talk about it with your opponent and decide an outcome, and come to an agreement. But there is no rule stating they have to reciprocate the goal. Double penalty shot? Play to the whistle. Next time blow your opponent out if he does something to piss you off.

One rule regarding pulling the goalie - It must be done while having possession, or before a faceoff in the offensive or neutral zone.

 

Let me know if you are returning or not, by posting below, or in this Discord thread - CDL11 Signups and Returnees. If I don't hear from you, I will assume you are not returning.
