RPS Blood Bowl League - The many, many Divisions of Death!

[groovychainsaw]

Ok chaps, little reshuffle due to tom 'o bedlam's departure.

Everblue is now in div H, mr joose is now in div G, 20phoenix in div F, 2lad in E and rakysh in D. So, if you already applied, you'll have to withdraw and reapply. Sorry chaps! At least you're in a higher division!

As such, I'm expecting a delay to the start of the season. I appreciate Jolima's recent help (thanks good buddy!), and I'm going away on holiday for a week from friday night, so won't be able to start the season i suspect :-(. If I'm unavailable, any of the admins, feel free to start the divisions and call a start to the season when full, as I might be out of wifi range for some time...

Applied to A! (Apparently I had forgotten)

[2lab]

I've got my application in for the new division. This one looks alot less scarey than the last one did :D

[Heliocentric]

I'd like to thank division management for accepting the terms of my black mail letter and delivering more elves to me division.

I promise that no major news networks will get these videos for another month.

Damn you for escaping!

On the other hand, hello again 20phoenix. I have a number of players that are just one injury away from levelling up. And I still owe you for killing my (admittedly 0SPP) linesman.

Edit: Wait...2lab...you got promoted into Heliocentric's division? And you're saying that's less scary? Oh dear...you poor naive elfling. Be gentle on him, Helio. Try to restrict yourself to only 6-man fouling.

Applied to H last night so hopefully that should be correct.

[Rakysh]

Ok, applying to D.

[squirrelfanatic]

Only Everblue, mr joose and 20phoenix left it seems. Gogogo guys, get the Divisions back on track!

[cyberpunkdreams]

aerisdead said he was dropping out, but he still seems to be in the league, I guess because he didn't have to move. Does that cause problems?

[Screwie]

Pity, that ruins the Norsey-Chaosy-ness of Div H!

[Everblue]

I applied yesterday.

Also I had a cool idea for naming a halfling team and need a league to play them in. Does the current season of the RPS Open have long to go?

The halflings will be called "The Dessert Spoons" and will all have names that are Spoonerisms. The captain will be "Bat Fastard", and key players will have names like "The Cooking Funt", "Wupid Stanker", etc.

I've always found playing the same team a bit weird... if they've got the same team colours it's even worse!

Seven matches remaining in the Open so about two months left in the season.

It's not recommended you use a rookie team for the Open in any case, since the minimal TV value there is 1500+ and they accept any teams up to 1750. Good news is, two months is enough time to level up a team!

[MrJoose]

Applied to G!

[Jolima]

Good catch. Rhylok, that puts you in division H.

Currently MIA are:
duffin, Thungrill, BBDave522, INinja132, imaork, The Poisoned Sponge, Ranek, 20phoenix & Rhylok. If any of you thought you had applied, do it again!

You can change your colours at any time (not during a match obv) so, consult your opponents I guess.

[Rhylok]

Applied to H. Thanks for sorting it.

[Rhylok]

After looking at what H looks like, I feel really sorry for Everblue. Block EVERYWHERE! His noobie Chaos have their work cut out for them. May Nuffle have mercy on them.

[Everblue]

On the plus side, I believe I am the fastest team in the division. Clearly I must play a passing game.

[Graever]

Err, confused by this, why would someone move you from DivG? AFAICT, you're still in - looks like you got demoted to DivG from DivF. Unless you're referring to the filtering down of Divs as we get the season started, in which case go ahead and apply for DivG, but keep an eye open here incase an opportunity to just up a Div or two arises...

So i feel the need to offer a, slightly delayed, explanation for this.

Essentially I've been on vacation for the last week and one night stumbling into my hotel room I suddenly realize that next season sign ups are on and I might just have been declared MIA (which my alcohol-fueled mind seems to have considered utterly horrifying). So i booted up the laptop and noticed the post by groovychainsaw saying that he's about to reshuffle the players which led to me writing the above thinking i had to make myself heard before being consigned to the horrifying fate of having to miss a season.

In other words, the post was fueled by a combination of drink and exhaustion which should hopefully explain your inability to make sense of it.
