As Dizaster pointed out, it would be really fun to have a competitive league for this community. I have been thinking about doing it for a while, but there were always problems. However, it NOW seems that everything is aligned, and it is possible for the league to work. So without further ado...
----------
MARINE ARENA LEAGUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Option 1: Teams- Players must sign up on this page.
- All players who sign up agree that on 1 day of each week (Most likely Sunday or Saturday) they will commit to having at least 2 players from their team show up to play an epic scrim.
- Players will recieve points towards their team's total, and all players on the team will receive rewards (reward system TBA).
This option requires a lot of sign ups - at least 12. It also requires 4 captains, who will pick from a pool of players until each team has 3 players. Then 2/3 players must commit to playing on the chosen day against other teams.
Option 2: Individuals- Players will face off against other players for wins, playing against/with anyone who signed up.
- Wins are recorded individually, and rewards will be based on number of wins.
This one will also require sign ups and commitment from all the players, but not as much. This requires just 8 players instead of a specific 8 players.
For both options:- If you are in a game during the time that the league is taking place, you must quit and join the league lobby. Do not make others wait for you; be smart, don't join a lobby right before the league match is about to start.
Depending on the number of sign ups and the reliability with with people commit, I will choose one of the options. Anyone is welcome to sign up! We will figure something out if we have extra players.

STREAM/replays Ragey will be the offical Ref/streamer to enforce rules/post streams/replays. Twitch.tv/rageypoo

REWARD SYSTEMAkash will give out rewards for people who play in this league. We have not decided on the rewards yet, but my ideas are something like this...
-Unit rename after you
-donor perks(if dont already have)
-Specific camo( glow, maroon, rainbow)
-Special badge
-new unit camo( stone colo camo ect.)
These are just some ideas - Akash will say specifically what he has decided later, and the points/wins for each prize will be set accordingly.
Again, this requires a lot of people signing up! So please tell people to come look at this post. If they can't, tell them the guidelines and ask if they would be willing to commit.

TIMELINEI'm going to have a
poll to find out which night works best for everyone. After 2 weeks of voting, that day shall be set, and we will begin picking teams.
GOAL IS THAT IN 3 WEEKS: TEAMS SET, RANK SYSTEM SET, AND WE START. So go check out the poll and vote on it, and recruit people to play.
----------
Also, a tourney is in sight (possibly this summer), and these wins/points will be used to rank players into brackets. So in other words, there is lots to be won by playing in the league!!!!!!
