All matches are still best 2 out of 3 five-round matches, but instead of moving up or down in ranking within the same division, the WINNER of the fight moves into the higher division, while the LOSER falls to the lower division. For example, in the GOLD vs. SILVER #1 Contender match; the winner will become the #1 Contender in the GOLD Division. The loser becomes the #1 Contender in the SILVER Division. This rule applies to all of the inter-divisional matches, so you might find yourself either defending your spot in a higher division or having the chance to take someone else’s spot.
These matchups are usually popular with the members since it creates unique, first-time fights with other members of the League. It also gives the League a great shot of balance and separation of skills between fighters.
SFCCL Notes:
* THE3DRAGONS has dropped out of the League
* His two fighters in the GOLD division were replaced with Refraxion’s RYU and CapitolC’s BLANKA from the top of the SILVER Division
* Since 3DRAGONS was in the top division, it created a domino effect for the rest of the League since fighters were promoted from the top of the SILVER division to the GOLD Division. The rest of the fighters in the SILVER division thus move up two spots, and create two vacancies at the bottom of the SILVER Division
* SILVER Division fighters promoted from the BRONZE Division: Marcopolo177 GUILE and Manwithnoarms BISON
* BRONZE Division fighters promoted from the A Division: Jinsoku_z CAMMY and Drunkengamers7 EL FUERTE
* A Division fighters promoted from the B Division: Jinsoku_z SAGAT and Drunkengamers7 SAGAT
* B Division fighters promoted from the C Division: Cynistar KEN and SBL21 BALROG
* 6 new members have joined the SFCCL for Week 13: SMOKEY_JOKER, URKELBOT45, JQUO, K-MONEY83, WILD_X_187, & REBONJI
* A new division (D Division) was created since the C Division was maxed out by some of the new members. The D Division will not participate in Inter-Divisional Matches this week
* The website has been updated (Home page, News, Rankings, Fight Schedule, League info in Forums)
Good luck to all members in their weekly fights.
The deadline for WEEK 13 is TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 2009.
