I wonder what prevents someone from not trading and playing solo in a regular league. It would be different story for those other 63% of players if it was SSF.

Playing SSF brings you in an obviously disadvantage to other players without that 'attitude'. Going SSF for the event would have opened up a 'next layer' of comparability within the challenge. And it even would deliver some interesting data (at least to GGG):
-how is the participation in general, compared to (similar) non SSF events?
-how far do players go if nobody helps them? (death 'traps')
-I can imagine a lot of information about various aspects of game balance GGG could 'learn' ^^

SSF is about competing against other players. SSF without a SSF ladder is pure masochism and doesn't appeal to 99% of SSFers.

In that case you are talking about some percentage of players who are unsatisfied about how competition works in this game out of small fraction of players who care about competition at first place. Not 37% of playerbase. It would barely be a scratch to the foot, not shooting in the foot.

a) why not give the competition this chance of a (trial) change? and: if not now with Perandus, WHEN?
b) if these wish is really just a minor 'scratch' - why is it so mandatory to surpress it? ^^

-if only some 100's join, its 'over and done', but if not...?
-if 1000's die in normal, it maybe shows some 'issues'?
-if only "three" (asc) classes prove viability, another 'issue'?

YES! Good result :)

Sad to see people voting for no parties(trading).

How does Beyond get picked over Talisman? Weak.

See ya in a few months.

Well what do you think would happen if the rewards in this league would be let's say 100 Demis for the best 100 players.

Oh wait, the same, a majority of the players playing the most OP build/group. Therfor your argument is invalid.

As for flashback leagues, they are always the most fun I have with the game where the player's ARPG skills and game knowledge are truly tested.
But then there are those that yells 'jsp flashback leagues'. Like, I don't even know. Do you want GGG to balance the game around RMTers? Certainly no.

Haha, bullshit.
Those flashback events arn't harder at all, they are easier. Why? Because you get so much more loot to easily compensate for the slightly increased difficulty. I played talisman,perandus, 4week flashback and 4 week darkshrine SSF.
Guess what, Talisman was the hardest, then perandus, flashback and DS. The true difficulty of this game is:
1.)Obtaining mappool//Getting gear
2.)Using the gear to dominate arbitary difficulty by either killing everything before it touches you and/or beeing nearly invincible.

Don't get me wrong i do agree that Flashback events are more fun than Perandus or Talisman but that's not because they are harder. That's mainly because of LOOT.

Your attempt to be smart and sarcastic was a major failure. My argument is in anyway invalid and your vague spew doesn't input any valueble opinions.
If you think obtaining map pool and gear is hard that just means you are bad at it. I didn't even attempt to hit 100 in perandus league (which has no other league mods to add the to the loot) and I have an entire stash of red map with gear worth over 2 mirrors.
Also, according to what you said, if you played the flashback races before you were very likely approaching it from a casual pleb's manner because you said flashback makes the game easier. Try to push for lv 100 competitively in a flashback league not by doing solely gorges and then tell me it's easy. And btw I was top 10 in both 1 month flashback races and I never RMT.

Nice, nice changes, GGG.
