My BB isn't running for some reason. Possibly related to me not having proper internet at the moment.

I will be trying to apply asap.

Man, blood bowl is one of the more annoying games to install via steam. You would think they had the NOC list in there or something. Hope they spend as much time on the UI for the next version as they do on the copy protection.

Well, this is what I get for not waiting for a Steam version. Nexway isn't giving me a download link so I'm going to have to try to get an installer from somewhere else. If I don't get this done soon feel free to go on without me.

This whole thing has made me realise I still have to choose between my one-turning rats and my underachieving Norse who have a far better gimmick. Hmmm.

Cool, so we're just waiting on AndyDavo and Lamaros at the moment as Sjofn has backed out. I've PMed them already but if anyone else knows a way to get their attention then please point them at this thread again. If they haven't signed up by Sunday morning or at least responded to PMs I'll start the league anyway without them.

If those two do get in then that gives us 26 players which isn't ideal but is at least an even number.

How close are you to an ideal number?

A nation consists of its laws. A nation does not consist of its situation at a given time. If an individual's morals are situational, then that individual is without morals. If a nation's laws are situational, that nation has no laws, and soon isn't a nation.

Currently there are 24 teams actually in the league. If AndyDavo and Lamaros both sort their shit out then we have 26. All even numbers between 26 and 39 inclusive are equally awkward but still preferable to any odd numbers. 32 is the ideal number but we won't have that unless everyone from Season 5 signs up again.

If we go ahead with 24 then that's three divisions of 8. 26 means 2 divisions of 8 and one of 10. In both cases we need to do some messing around to make playoffs work out nicely - I'll probably have a regular 16 team playoff and make the failoffs a post season league with two or more divisions to keep the total number of games low.

I begged persuaded Ironwood to sign up so we at least have even numbers as it doesn't look as though AndyDavo is reading PMs or Steam chat.

As soon as Ironwood has signed up in-game I'll do the seeding video.

We're missing the a few people from previous seasons, if any of you can prod them and get them to sign up right the fuck now then they can still get in - they have about 5 hours from the time of this post to at least PM me and tell me they are joining.

Alrighty, Seeding is done, video is uploading Right Now!

We're going to have to have three divisions in two different leagues as otherwise we need to mess about with open leagues and byes.

So, there will be two divisions of 8 teams each - these will stay in the current league - and one parallel league with one division of 10 players who will need to join the new league that I have set up already will set up as soon as the Bloodbowl platform comes back up..

Playoffs will be the top four from each of the three divisions plus the next best four players from all the divisions. These four wildcard spots will be awarded on points then TD difference and then TDs against. For the purposes of these wildcard spots, teams from the 10 player division will only count their first 7 games.

Everyone not in the playoffs (12 players) will be in a failoff knockout league.
