Reddit F1 Super League 2012 in Formula 1 ·
Nobody’s buying what you’re selling☕
A. I’m only complaining because you went ahead and made up this fantasy where I actually agree with your proposal.☕
Reddit F1 Super League 2012 in Formula 1 ·
That’s all the smart stuff you’ve got to say 🤦

Besides, this is Formula 1 ☕
The super league is supposed to feel like F1—just like that one kid keeps blaring about—so what exactly is your table mimicking? 🤷 Is it the NBA league or just some random kid's idea?
Reddit F1 Super League 2012 in Formula 1 ·
There aren't really any "best" or "worst" here.🙄
The super league consists of the top 8 players.☕

Looking at how things have gone through the first 14 rounds, you've got one underdog and one standout who usually ends up taking the title.☕
As for everyone else from 2nd to 7th, they're all basically within two points of each other—sometimes even less, where everyone just sits on the exact same score. 😳

And look, you can't just claim you're way better than the rest based on a tiny 2 or 3 point lead and argue they don't deserve to play in the semi-finals. If you're at the top, you're guaranteed at least 4th place regardless.🙄

Besides, here's the deal:

It’s not a perfect system—far from it—but it’s definitely fairer.
Plus, the biggest thing is that if the first race gets canceled in this format, it isn't a disaster, whereas your system literally falls apart into pieces.

If the Bahrain race gets called off in your setup, everything just goes completely south.

Oh sure, let's just ramble on about something totally irrelevant just because one system is "maybe" unfair, so why don't we just implement a system that is absolutely, undeniably, and without a shadow of a doubt completely rigged🙄

I don't get why you're using quotation marks there?😕

Not every competitor gets to face everyone else an equal number of times.

Some competitors end up playing against another team twice—once at home and once away—while others only get one shot at being the host and one shot as the visitor.

The whole system is fundamentally flawed because the matchups against all opponents aren't distributed evenly.☕

What are you even talking about, 😕
Everyone makes one offer and responds to one offer against every other player.☕
That covers the first 14 rounds—exactly one response and one offer per matchup.😳
After that, it’s based on "merit," but whatever, everyone still has a shot at winning the super league.☕

In your system, they don't.👎
And how exactly does everyone play everyone the same amount of times in your version?🤣

darkmarlin16 said:There is absolutely no way a three-round system can ever be considered fair or even remotely decent. And don't even get me started on a broken three-round system, because that's just straight-up garbage.

It’s way more unfair to let big-name teams play in the super league just because they have the brand, even if they suck at everything, while actual tournament finalists—the guys who actually earned their spots on the podium—get left out.☕

But hey, why not just rant about something totally irrelevant and claim one system is "maybe" unfair? Let's just pivot and introduce a system that is guaranteed, without a shadow of a doubt, to be completely rigged. 🙄

darkmarlin16 said:Personally, I don't think this three-round system is OK at all—actually, scratch that, it's even worse than that; it's a total joke and it's just NOT FAIR.☕

Besides, with that system of yours, everyone sitting in those 5th through 8th spots gets screwed over, and it's pretty nasty.

I honestly don't see how they're getting shortchanged; if they had actually earned it through their gameplay and results, they'd be up there in the top 4.

And the rest of the leaders have this massive advantage they haven't done a single thing to earn.

Yeah, they haven't earned it by 🤣 🤦
which basically means their wins and those extra points they racked up are totally unearned.🤦

See, if we used your system last year, Appalachia would've finished the season in 4th place, even though his actual performance only deserved him 7th.
Joshua Newman2, who actually made the podium, would've dropped down to 5th.

I don't give a damn about that nonsense😉

Kill it if you want, but it makes absolutely no sense to me.☕

It makes plenty of sense, actually, because the best player should be the one who goes up against the best players.😉

"Basically nothing"☕

There's your real-world example right there.
Reddit F1 league 2011 - Round 14 3-6 win-loss ratio ☕
Reddit F1 league 2010 - Round 14 4-7 win-loss ratio ☕

How exactly did the guys in 4th place over the last two seasons earn such a massive advantage over the people below them who have the same points or just one or two less?

All it takes is one guy missing a first offer in the first half, and boom—you're in the top four (don't even get me started on what happens if there's a tie), and then you can lose all 6 remaining rounds and still finish 4th.

Meanwhile, 5th, 6th, 7th, even 8th could have the exact same number of wins as you, but by Round 14, they have a worse tiebreaker because you, being that "famous" 4th place holder, had one race go 15-0, which is a massive advantage in this system.
So even if any of them win all their next 6 rounds, and you fail all 6, you still finish ahead of them even if you have 15 fewer main points.🙄

Honestly, it's a broken system.☕
Maybe it wouldn't be if we overhauled the entire scoring structure, but if we're sticking with what we have, then your system is easily the worst ever.
I seriously can't imagine a more messed up setup than yours.

darkmarlin16 said:so what, you think this isn't trolling🙄🤷

take your penalty☕

🤣🤣🤣
Fine, I'm on my way. 😍

What am I supposed to do when your proposal is just plain stupid? It makes zero sense to overhaul a competition format that’s been working perfectly fine for ages.
If we're going to change things, let's fix the actual problems, not mess with stuff that isn't broken. 🤷

Plus, with your system, everyone sitting in 5th through 8th place gets totally screwed. Meanwhile, the guys at the top get a massive advantage they haven't even earned.
Under your rules, last year's runner-up would've finished 4th, even though his actual results only deserved him 7th.
Joshua Newman2, who actually made the podium, would have dropped to 5th.

And all this happens at the end of the season in a total mess where the runner-up would end up with more points than Jessica Ramos12, yet still sit in 4th. 🙄

So, your "perfect" standings would look like this:
1. - 29 points
2. - 28 points
3. - 25 points
4. - 20 points
5. - 25 points
6. - 24 points
7. - 22 points
8. - 16 points

It's an absolute joke—a nonsensical system that makes no sense whatsoever.
I'm not seeing the logic here at all. ☕

darkmarlin16 said:cosmicridge5, what’s your take on all this nonsense above? 🙂

That table is basically just a wall of numbers with barely any actual words.🤷
Reddit F1 Super League 2012 in Formula 1 ·
darkmarlin16 said:You can't just sit there being neutral, you gotta actually pick a side if you're gonna talk🙄

If I say that... I'm not down for changing the system. Even a blind man could see I’m not about messing with the current system we're playing by.☕

Look, if I said I didn't have an opinion either way, I'd be telling the truth. Ideas? It’s not that I hate the idea or that I actually like it—I just don't give a damn either way. I'm completely indifferent.
Besides that, all of this was written before you even dropped your final proposal.

Still going. I'm not down for this. Changes to that rule.☕

So you don't care, huh? 🙏

Little problem is, you actually have to write "American dictionary by Maminho TM"😁

Honestly, I’d love to see them step up😁

If this is the kind of competition we're looking at while defending our title, it actually feels tougher than the battle happening in the top 8😳

Yeah they are, but the difference is in the actual post.😳

Links aren't a substitute for actual content. When you drop a link, you need to briefly explain what's behind it (a title, a summary, or a key quote). It needs to be obvious why that page matters to the discussion.
Bottom line:
In the second post, the point is actually stated, and the link is just there for the source.

In the first one, it's just a link, and honestly, you have no clue what it's even pointing to.😉

They look similar, but trust me, the difference is huge.

I didn't even read the whole thing. I just noticed they were both the exact same link.🙈

Both of them follow the subforum rules perfectly.

He was talking this same crap last year, claiming he wasn't feeling the love either.😬
He talked a big game about driving until the end of the season, but then he didn't even show up for Bahrain at the end.☕

I honestly don't even know where to start with this whole situation, but let me tell you, if you think the current state of things is bad, just wait until you see how much more chaotic it’s going to get once everyone realizes how broken the system actually is. It’s like watching a slow-motion train wreck on a Friday afternoon in Chicago, except nobody is even trying to hit the brakes. You've got people acting like everything is totally fine while the entire foundation is basically crumbling right under our feet, and honestly, the sheer level of delusion required to ignore it is almost impressive if it wasn't so incredibly frustrating. It's just one thing after another, a constant stream of nonsense that somehow gets passed off as standard procedure, and I'm sitting here wondering when we're all going to collectively decide that enough is enough.

And honestly, once everyone who actually wants to play signs up, I’ll just drop a full list of names right here. 😉

Man, I have absolutely no clue where I stashed that breakdown of who’s playing against whom—you know, the one with all the specific numbers and stats? I swear I had everything organized perfectly somewhere, like a master file or something, but now? Total blackout. I’ve got zero clue where I put it.😢

Man, I was just looking at that Berger table again and honestly, it’s kind of a mess, isn't it? Just staring at those numbers makes me want to throw my phone across the room. It's like someone tried to organize chaos and then just gave up halfway through. Seriously, how are we supposed to make sense of any of this when the data looks like it was scribbled on a napkin during a coffee break? It’s absolute madness.😉

And honestly, there’s just one more thing that’s been eating at me lately, if I'm being totally real with you guys.😳
I honestly have zero clue what we’re even going to do if we end up hitting 19 rounds. Like, seriously, where does that leave us? I haven't even wrapped my head around the current mess, let alone some hypothetical marathon scenario.

I’ve got this nagging feeling that Bahrain is probably gonna flake on us at the absolute last second again.
No way, I seriously can't believe he’d actually get canned—like, why on earth would you think that's even happening?🤷

My chances of actually driving are about the same as Kovalainen snagging a win in Carteheam.🤣

Even if you kill yourself trying to fix this mess, it’ll just end up being a total waste of time, and they'll probably just back out again anyway.
Reddit F1 Super League 2012 in Formula 1 ·
Wait, so you're telling me the guys in spots 1 through 4 are playing in both the championship league and the relegation league at the same time? 😬

Also, where did you stash the breakdown of who's playing who? I mean the numbers. I had a solid list saved somewhere, but now I can't find it for the life of me. 😢

And there's one thing that's bugging me a little. 😳
I have no clue what we're going to do if we hit 19 rounds.

I've got a bad feeling that Bahrain is probably going to flake out on us at the very last second again.
