Closed Stop making threads moaning about tiering decisions & don't use the gym challenge as justification

[Martin]

Covering two issues in this post.

Firstly, we do not do tiering based on the gym challenge. The gym challenge is based on the official tiers, but the tiers are not designed to accomodate for the gym challenge. As such, pushing against a ban to prevent the "crippling" of a gym isn't going to get you anywhere and is just wasted effort, as the gyms don't even cross our minds when we discuss what gets banned.

Secondly, do not make entire threads moaning about our decision. Threads like the one Lolishark posted here provide no substance for discussion and are just blatantly ignoring a massive part of the reason why we leave tiering threads open after the update is implemented. If you want to moan about it do it in the ban discussion thread. Don't make an entire thread on it because it simply does not warrant it.

Completely agreed. I would also like to take time to mention how the decisions of, AHEM - certain users of the council may be shifted by their current gym, and this is also just simply unfair. If you know something is broken and you choose to keep it as it benefits your team, then you aren't tiering from the correct standpoint - you have other options, so use them.
