Title: Blood Bowl II - Testing League
Post by: Gnaarkill on January 28, 2016, 09:08:53 AM
Hey guys!

So, whos up for a try it out Norsca league in blood bowl II?
Say yay or nay so we can see how many we will be and we take it from there :)

As Kvasilad said in the signup thread, I also dont have any experience in running the show. But I can however try, no problem at all.

But at first. Lets find out who is intrested. I think that four players would be a minimum to try it out, what do you guys think?

/Gnaarkill

Coaches so far: (At least 1 more to go)
-Mr. B
-Kvasilad
-Gnaarkill
-Equilibri
-Barmution
-J-R (A wild J-R will appear if an odd number of coaches reports for duty)

Well, I'm eager to give it a go for sure. I take it we'll have 4 Bretonnian teams? :D

Nope you wont.
I will pick something else as I hate mirror games.

Things to examin...
Ageing on/off
Stadiums on/off

And of course how the skills works on/off wise

When does aging kick in? I think it's pretty irrelevant, since it's like 40+ games or something? I might be wrong.

Stadiums, does that have an actual effect on gameplay? Not sure how that works.

Are there skill decisions to be made from a league management standpoint?

Aging is late, which of course  kick in later but I still hate it as its more needed in the open league.

You can buy featuers for the stadium which I'm not sure if it is actually approved buy anyone.. A free wiz for elf's every home game is pretty game changing for me.

Im not sure about the "official" rules here. What does the LRB say about Ageing, Stadiums?
My personal opinion is that we should go with the LRB as much as possible. Ageing sounds fun though :D
But on the other hand, i like crazy rules ;D

Haven't bought the BB2 yet, but will probly do that before the sale ends. Thanks for Gnaarkill for pointing that out.

I can take part in this experiment if there will be odd number of teams.

I bought the game yesterday and tried a couple of games with Brettonia. (did not like the team, so I will play something else...)

Count me in on this experiment! It would be fun to play someone else than the AI. :D

Did not really like the game as much as the old ones, but I guess it has to do with getting used to the new settings and some of the functions.

Cool guys!

Let's get this mad experience going!  ;D

So, in reality we are ready to start. But lets wait for a respone from Barm, Golden, Lars and Hakos also. (Hope i didnt forget anyone, haha! :D)

Someone needs to just go ahead and create the league I suppose. Mr. B, will you do the honours?

As for options, I'm fine with whatever really.. aging or not, stadiums or not. It's just to test things out anyway, doesn't matter that much if something is a bit off.

Alright guys,

"NUL-Ignition"

Has been created!
6 players round robin, new teams only.

I think I have to validate your request to enter.
It was not so clear, auto-validation anyhow.

Welcome!

It was quite tricky..

You have to join NUL-Feeder and there join NUL-Ignition.. and then Request for a ticket... which I will provide one once I have the question.
Then you will receive my ticket.. and for this you can then use to Join the League...

Easy Peasy... Bravo for making it easy!

Hmm, so you cannot join with your team or what happens.
I see nothing as a manager at the moment.

Except my own team..

Yeah, I'm in if you need even number of teams. I applied with a chaos team.

But if I'm making the numbers odd, just kick me out.

I'll create a new subforum for the Testing league. Should be up in a 10 min or so.
Title: Re: Blood Bowl II - Testing League

Then we have a hopefully operational BB2 league going! Cool! =)

BB2 server seems to be down for some reason. Developers are saying a patch is coming:
http://forum.bloodbowl-game.com/viewtopic.php?f=90&t=7295&start=10 (http://forum.bloodbowl-game.com/viewtopic.php?f=90&t=7295&start=10)

Will finalize the signup when the server gets back online.

OK. I should now have a pending application with the lizard team Chi Bananas Quitas! waiting. I changed from Chaos to Lizzies because there already was a chaos team registered. Nicer to have some variation.

You can't see the schedule because I have not started it yet.
But when I get home I will start it.

Then I will also make us admin or whatever options there were available.

There is also a automatic validation made if both agree on the end result.
We can also have several sub-leagues connected to NUL.
Title: Re: Blood Bowl II - Testing League
Post by: Mr B on February 10, 2016, 05:42:28 PM
Quite Cool for smaller leagues,

We can now have games:
Single match (just as before)
Best of two, Aggregated result to determin winner
Best of Three
Best of Five!

I went with Single.

But there is  some options to test later on.
We have a Go!
