f13 Elfbowl *Season 1* has been created. There is no password for the league, simply apply and I'll add you. Only new teams, and the teams must be elven. Aside from that, build them however you like.
I will announce the divisions once everyone is signed up. There will be two divisions, and I'll be using the official f13 rankings developed by Falconeer to guide how I assemble the divisions, but I may also pay some attention to the distribution of different elf teams depending upon what everyone picks.. There will be six games in the regular season.

Yeah, apparently there is a UI issue. If the league doesn't have a password you can't apply from the League Search window, you have to view the league, and from the league page apply with your team. So....I've added a password.
The password for the league is "elfbowl". Yeah, it's stupid, I know, but it's the best way to get around that ui bug.
So far we have a high elf team, a dark elf team and a wood elf team. Looking diverse; hope that keeps up.

Les Tigres have applied, JUST IN CASE. They are a bold, beautiful high elf team. I went back and forth between high elf and pro elf, but I don't think I have the patience to grow a little pro elf team.

No just in case about it, you're team #14.
Thank you for volunteering in case of an odd number of teams.

You never signed up in the thread, Bann!! Maybe we won't need Sjofn's new Les Tigres as an alternate.  |

Considering Bann's team were dwarves, you're still probably in, Sjofn. |

You definitely succeeded there, pal. They were very briefly in the league.

Are you trying to sign up directly through the League Finder? If so, instead, use the League Finder to search for the league, select it, and then press "View League" at the bottom right-hand side of the screen, and from the actual league page try to sign up your team from the bottom of the page there. I've noticed that signing up for leagues that way tends to be a little less error prone.

The work around for me was to search for the league, then bring it up details of the league in the main window. Once there, I just hit the team drop at the bottom-center and clicked in my Wood Elfs.

PMs and emails have been sent to the remaining two coaches. If I don't get a team from them by Monday, 3/12/2012 we'll be starting the tournament without them. We have 12 teams right now, which is more than enough, but having the last two to make 14 would be even better.
Also, I'm a little surprised by the team choices. I really thought that more people would choose dark elves, but high elves have been the most popular choice so far (2 Wood Elf, 2 Pro Elf, 3 Dark Elf, 5 High Elf). I'm glad there will be enough variety to make things interesting.

Seems diverse enough. Everyone's probably still reeling from the brutality of H&H and considered the slightly higher armor of the High to save them . Looking forward to this. |

For me it was because High Elves were the only flavour of Elf I'd not played much before.

If you still need a team by Monday, I'll sign up to fill in a slot. * So are we still down a team or two? |

I'm only playing in case of an odd number of teams, so if you submitted one I think that means I get the season off (which is fine by me, I suck at elves).

What Sjofn said. Sorry I didn't reply sooner; I'm in Mexico City at the moment.
Go ahead and submit a team, Megrim. As soon as you do I'll draw up the divisions and get this thing started.

Everyone has signed up and the divisions have been made. Behold, the division-fu, which has placed exactly the same amount of each team type in both divisions while also bearing parity in mind.
Keebler Division:
Gruntle - Elf Hatred - Dark Elf
Haemish - The Pale Horses - Dark Elf
Llyse - Labor Day - High Elf
Ruvaldt - Haute Couture - High Elf
Ulysees - I Break Easy - Wood Elf
Eldaec - Guild of Fools - Pro Elf
North Pole Division:
Teleku - Chris Dane Owens Fan Club - Dark Elf
Megrim - Spiderland Reavers - Dark Elf
Strazos - Here Be DWAGONS - High Elf
IainC - Considerably Elfier - High Elf
Luckton - Morningwood Packers - Wood Elf
Comstar - Ponyelves II - Pro Elf
I'll start a fresh thread to begin the high-scoring hillarity and announce the schedule tomorrow. In that thread will also be an elaboration of how the tournament will proceed. Short version: there will be five regular season games followed by a post season in which I hope to include everyone in some way and reward play that emphasizes scoring lots and lots of TDs.

I'm so investing in a Treeman, just on the off chance that I could pound some elfs into submission |
