I forget that not everyone spams the "New Posts" button at the top of these boards...

I'll sort that out later :)

Why anyone would do that, when all you get is a bunch of crap about WoW, diablo and other shit I couldn't care less about I'll never know.

I imagine it's the same for the WoWers, it's not like they'll care about everything in games chat either.

[mod]Moved this to Games Chat, as has been mentioned, in an attempt to create more visibility[/mod]

OK so Currently we have 7 teams signed up, with a large TV difference between the high and the low teams.

I know Narly Bird will be interested in joining when he returned from his holiday after the 9th July, but aside from him, is there any more interest? If not, we'll have to rethink the type of league we want to take part in...

Hi Bloke.

I played in THN a couple of seasons ago (went 0-0-4) and I'd be up for coming back to salvage my damaged reputation :). What are the entry requirements?

Be careful Panda, In TV when people hate each other as much as you and Sceadeau they always end up kissing, and as everyone knows, TV is exactly the same as real life. That said I approve of the rule. For someone so keen to point out flaws in people's strategy he sure disappeared quick when he lost a couple of games. Fun fact - I gave him his final beating, high variance all the way baby :)

Was more wondering about the teams though. Is it still OK to play a few games? How many? Also what races do we have already? I'd rather play a race someone else isn't.

It's always been fine in the past to play a few games, we seem to have a fair few higher TV teams in this league (indeed, only one total rookie team), so it might actually be beneficial, especially if we end up with one giant division or something crazy.
The two lowest teams at the moment are 1000 and 1170, but after that the next lowest is 1380, and there's Dreamy's WoE team in there with over 1900, so if we did split the league into two divisions, I'd say stick with a team less than 1200 so you could get into the low TV div.

As for races, there are two Lizards, and one each of Undead, Khemri, Dwarfs, Chaos, and WoE.

The Khemri team is 1210 actually, and even higher when the two MNG:d players return. (Especially that Blitz-Ra. The +AG skeleton is probably sackable)

And since my team is so silly high anyway I'll up them to 2070 TV, to give people as much inducements as possible to beat me with :p

Hey Bloke,

One quick info from my side, I'll have to replace someone on a business trip on short notice and will be gone probably until July 16th or 17th, so if we could turn it that my first match will be my day off that would be super. Otherwise I'll forefeit that first match of course.


Greeting

Moguai

I'll see what happens, looks like I need to get the super sized cattleprods out to actually get people to sign up for this so I expect we can work in some sort of delay while we figure out what is going on...

I've signed up anyway. Was hoping to get a couple of games in but Orcs should hopefully manage OK.

Ow Paolo - Orcs - a little under 1000 TV.

I hate him more. :mad:

Also, my Flings are about 1250 tv i think? but i am happy to go in the highest tv division as Flings do better when they get inducements.

Sceadeau was a massive influence on my game. All that talk about low variance play made me determined to play as stupidly as possible no matter how much it affected my results just so nobody could say I was anything like him.

I'll be gone until the 14th or 15th of July on my sole vacation trip, so if the games start soon maybe we can just prolong the first matchday some?

At this moment in time, still debating whether or not to even go ahead with the league due to so little interest. Will make a decision by this weekend.

A pity. There's an Oz league with about as many coaches though - but if so it makes more sense if people all start in roughly the same TV area. So I could go down to that Norse team, and then play an "ordinary" league with no bye weeks or anything.

Or something. ;)

Or one could try mixing things up with the half-sized league of the Quarter to 3 forums - some kind of crossover..
