I've just had word that we are ready to go on team creation for the tournament. I'm not at home currently, so expect a full announcement / instructions (and a ruleset amendment) first thing tomorrow morning (and I will post it everywhere I can think of, including here).

In light of the timing, we will put off kickoff until Friday evening to ensure that we leave enough time for everyone to sign up.

Big cheer for Christer's hard work. Here we go! :)

All,

Thank you very much indeed for your patience. We are there. The rulespack (here or here) has been updated to reflect our new start day (Friday!) and details on making a team and applying to the tournament. This section is reproduced below. Please pay very special attention indeed to the notes on how we'll be handling inducements; the process will be very much 'by hand'. Bear this in mind when making a team.

Please let me know if you have any questions. Otherwise, get a team made! :D

GO!

FUMBBL Team Creation and Application to the Tournament

• Teams for the RTTNAFC should be created via this link

o Select your race and team name (see the Useful links section below for advice on making a FUMBBL team)

o On the team page, change ‘Progression’ from ‘Standard’ to ‘None’

o Select all of your players, re-rolls, etc. and click ‘submit for approval’

o Ensure your team complies with the FUMBBL disclaimer pop-up

o The following screen allows then you to select your 6 skills for the tournament

• NAF coaches should record their NAF nick (if different to their FUMBBL username) and NAF number in the team bio section following team creation. This will help us in the recording and ranking of online games

• Any inducements you wish to use should be left out of your team creation process and listed in the team bio

o Example: I wish to create a Wood Elf team with two rostered Bloodwiser Babes. I spend 1.0M of my allotted 1.1M gold crowns and select my skills
o I then write my team bio: NAF name: Purplegoo, NAF number: 11777, Inducements: 2 x Bloodwiser Babes

• When you play a match in the tournament, select your listed inducements when the client loads up as you would normally by spending your remaining treasury

o It is important that you only use the inducments that you have declared in your team bio. For example, the Wood Elf team described above could not decide that in one match, they would rather induce a wandering apothecary than the babes

o In the event that non ‘rostered’ inducments are selected in the client by a coach, the match result will be void and the game awarded to the opponent

• When teams have been created, they should be applied to this group

o Click the ‘group members’ tab and then use the ‘apply for membership’ dropdown

I've selected my skill sand clicked save but when I view the team page the skills aren't shown. Is that how it's supposed to be or have they not saved properly?

Edit:

Don't worry, I can see they're listed on the 'Teasm Options' page. It's all good

The FUMBBL thread has been updated with a short FAQ. Please have a look if you have a Q!

114 applicants after 36 hours of applications. Not bad, still time for you to apply!
