Blood Bowl League 3?

I'm not sure if I'd be in or not at this point.

Had deliberately not replied until my name came up there, will most likely get involved once the ball is rolling a little more.

If it's a perpetual league, Skaven look fun to me too. The low armour and unpredictability ensures you never know what team you'll be fielding, or if your star players will be available. Chaos and orcs also look appealing due to the relatively lengthy time it takes to skill them.

So let me hijack this thread for OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS (said like elD, just 'cause that amused me).

We're looking at starting a Championship style league with multiple (2+) divisions depending on the numbers of players. The aim there is to have multiple short seasons (5ish games per season) with relegation and possibility to switch out some teams at the end of each season.

In a surprise move, we'd also be happy enough to take on teams from the previous league, but we'll twiddle the seeding such that high TV teams end up in division 1 and low TV or new teams go to division bottom, hopefully keeping them apart.

It seems likely that this will be starting later in June or early in July, partly to give people chance to get themselves figured, and partly because Those Who Are Not Haddocks have their own fish to fry before then. (Arf arf.)

We want to keep to the match-per-week format, however, rather than the freeform pattern of an open league largely based on experiences with the somewhat larger BB community of Blood Bowl Tactics who find that open leagues just don't get any momentum.

So, who's up for league 3 and onwards?

Current signees:

  1. Ghostwolf
  2. Panda with Issues / Ronin Storm (depending on start dates)
  3. Huung
  4. thatbloke
  5. Kasatka
  6. Iron Fist
  7. Xarlaxas
  8. Tempscire
  9. Velaphor
  10. Comrade Phil
  11. Lucius
Sure.

So, given the numbers we have so far, I imagine we're shooting for either 16 (2 leagues of 8) or 18 (3 leagues of 6). The former is 7 games before promotion/relegation, the latter is 5.

I've had one direct enquiry from a guy I know outside of THN (yet to register here I believe) and then some more possibilities here in THN. I'll drop some PMs around to badger.

I'm most likely in however as I'm trying to buy a place and as that is no where near completion I'm going to have all my stuff in storage as of next week so I'll not have my gaming rig for at least until the end of June.

Going to be most likely sleeping on mates floors for the next few weeks so won't have my stuff. Woot to being homeless :p.

Hoy, :)

Just want you all to know that I would be totally interested in participating in this, but I just can't commit to a weekly schedule. My weeks are very full, and though I have a lot of time on the weekend, it's completely inconsistent and fickle, and I'd be likely to be missing more games than playing them.

Alas. :(

I very much enjoyed playing the first league, though, and I hope this one goes well too! :)

Goodl uck out in the field, break lots of bones, but try not to get anyone killed! :D

Cheers,
J.

This is why we need an ongoing league for friendlies alongside! (Yes, I AM going to keep plugging this at every opportunity :p)

So, um, without being rude, start one yourself? :p

Well, I would, but I didn't know if the current league admins would want to be the ones doing it. If people are happy for me to start it up then by all means I'll go right ahead :p

So, I'm game for this; I don't see any HUGE problem with getting in a game once every week. No idea on a team yet, but I will be back. ;D

Unless I throw numbers off of course. If you need people to step out for even numbers and stuff, I don't mind. :3 Whatever's good. ^_^
