Hey williebobc, what are your thoughts on how the first season of HoQleagues turned out?
williebobc: I'll be honest, having my hands a little full with already on going leagues and not really having the time I was worried about the format of the league with fixed dates ect.. To my suprise the league went very well and a lot smoother than expected, partially due to getting some new admins (thanks drayan and Premon).
Although some teams were not happy about it at times I think the teams may now look back and see why we stuck to our guns and kept it as strict as possible. So.. all in all it turned out well and we will be making CTF more like TDM, thats how pleased I am with it ;]
Will there be any changes to the next season’s layout? What are the future goals of HoQleagues?
williebobc: I can't really comment as of yet, I have had a lot of suggestions, I have had my own thought about evolving our league, would love to know what people think. I'm thinking of making a premier league in TDM, it would not consist of the best teams, only the dedicated teams will get a place for the 1st season, 2nd season only 2 teams would be relegated to div 1 and only 2 more dedicated winning teams will move up *this is an idea* i would like some feedback if possible, it would basically change to 2 or 3 divisions with a separate premier league. This would be a very strict league and for the most dedicated of teams. the first season would not fair persae, after a couple of seasons we would see the level improve dramatically. If this idea doesn't go down well, I would just keep the league how it is with some minor changes.
You also won Division 4 with the HoQ team, how did that go for you and your team mates?
williebobc: Winning our Division was a big boost for our team, of course I'm very happy with it, we are ready to move up next season and willing to accept the challenge of a tougher division. My team hasn't really been together long we play under HoQ but originally we were tsun and basically changed to HoQ as the leagues started, with not much team play between us at the time we were a little worried but... we just got down to practice and pulled it off on the day.
Are you excited for Dreamhack, and what are your plans for it?
williebobc: Yeah my teams going to dream hack hopefully we all get there in one piece, we really haven't set any plans in motion, we are starting to get some serious games played and are sticking to only playing high skilled teams, to prepare us for DreamHack, my team just loves the competition and want to be playing at the highest level. ofcourse this take time but excited ? DAM RIGHT! =D
Thanks for a well-run league and the interview. Any shout outs or silly phrases you’d like to exclaim?
