I vote for B coz I think that would be the best. North Americans and Europeans can play nice matches and I think it would be a pitty if they weren't playing each other in the league. On the other side, too many people have problems playing South Americans.
But I want to hear what all players think, so please don't just vote - also comment! :)

Thx

i have had nice matches against europeans or north americans, and i had really laggy matches... the only one from "my league" that i know that i can play a normal speed match is marcelo, with santiago and max i have problems, so i dont know if its gonna be a solution to separate the leagues by continent

C, because if North America & Europe played together, then the South American guys would only have a small league, while the other league would be quite big.

I think 4 of you won't be in one league after all... but then I'll have to think of new rules for matches that will be either very laggy or unplayable.

Hello everyone. I inform you that option C will be used for the second season of TE League.

So far, this is the application list:

Image Krotekus
Image Stuey

Some players are not active lately nowhere on forum nor tournaments, and some players have recently said that they are retiring from Tennis Elbow. So I don't know if they are willing to play TE League in 2nd season. That's why I would like them all to confirm they participation in TE League. They are:

Miguel
007
Allez Amelie
CED
Raphael Federer Williams
Hibachi

Please, let me know about your participation in 2nd TE League, by posting here or contacting me on msn. If you don't answer, I might take that as you don't want to participate :!:

Also, everyone else who doesn't want to participate and is on the application list, please let me know you don't want to participate so we wouldn't have much problems in playing matches :!:

Also, I would like Blacky, Bajko, Jazzo, Krotekus, Miguel, Mario and Tom Paulman to finish their matches in the first season!

That's all for now :)
