That said though, it's all been said and done, so arguing this anymore will produce literally nothing useful. Ideally, captains should always do what's in the best interest for their own team, but you can't always get every captain to feel the same way. Live and learn, I guess.
If you've got the time and resources to pull off three seasons a year, I don't see why you shouldn't go for it. "Player burnout" shouldn't be much of a problem, because realistically, most people who play a league season wouldn't ditch on the next one just because it's happening not too long afterwards. Keep in mind that not every player will think and function the same way in terms of how they experience said burnout. Hosting more seasons is hardly an objective detriment to the scene if you can make that happen; if you asked me, I'd say that what the scene needs right now is more opportunities and options to compete, not less.Dragon wrote:There are mixed opinions about this it seems, some want, some don't..

Hell no. People are going to get burned out no matter how optimistic they are about playing. Just keep it at 2 seasons per year with enough breathing room in between. The break in between can be used to make changes or improvements.
On the flip side though, having only two seasons a year allows you to plan and do more things during the off-seasons that could easily contribute to growing the scene more. Be it new features, stats dumps, or even simply discussion threads, there are plenty of ideas you could get from looking at other Doom leagues and other competitive games too.
