Minor change

This season we are trialling a reduction of the number of transfer rounds during the season. After week 5, rosters will be locked to avoid late-minute changes to rosters for playoffs.

Autumn '25 Feedback Form

For the time being we intend to move away from doing end of season surveys. They simply don't yield enough meaningful responses to justify doing them season after season. In their place we will be implementing a General Feedback Form which can be filled in at any point throughout the season. This form will then be looked at with all the submitted feedback, criticism and ideas at the end of each season and wiped going into the start of the next. Any other important data points from our previous Post-season Surveys such as map votes and whitelist changes will be moved to discord polls to incentivize responses in a simpler setting.

Advisors Wanted!

This season, we will be trialing a new way for advisors to give input. If you believe you have a fair but comprehensive
knowledge of the ozfortress player base, please send Hawk (@hawk_33) a message on Discord!

CONFIG

Due to the time constraints between rounds, we will be utilsing a modified config which was on display at the recent Summer Brawl LAN. The win conditions of these are set by the highest score after 25 minutes, or first to 5. If both teams are tied at 25 minutes, an additional 5 minutes will be added. If no team can finish the game in those next 5 minutes, the team controlling middle will win the game.

Voting for your own teammates is not allowed, regardless of the award (this includes Best Caster).

Important formatting - you must copy-paste your vote EXACTLY, and separate votes using commas. Again we are using an automated script to process these votes, and incorrectly imputed votes may not be counted!
