The reason I asked about non-league members and KOTH, is because in the amount of time I have being playing I have only finished (& lost) 2 games (not counting KOTH) and I am still going strong in 5 other games, one of which started almost 2 years.
I'll join but I'll admit up front, I'm limited in the number of games I can join. I'll see if the players in my new game will consider it a League game even thought I know not everyone (my partner/wife for one) will be a league member. If not, hopefully KOTH games will keep me active
Including past Koth games could be a good idea for getting starting rankings, but that would benifit some people, including me but not everyone.
