I loved seeing people play the snotling team and I do agree it there were to good. Mainly because they have so many freakin players on the field. Well I was thinking to solve this problem have only 11 guys on the field, but the snots can put in a new snot as soon as one guy as removed from the field. Kinda like he is sneaking on and the ref can't tell them apart. Also if a snot is on the sideline he can switch off with another snot. He could even hand him off the ball but if failed the crowd throws it in and the turn is over. ALso the new player can do stuff. So basically a snot could run as far as hec ouldo n the sideline hand it off to another snot who is wating off the field to come in and switch with him and contineu off. Of course the ref may notice this so use the fouling ref rules to see if they get caught

That sounds fun. As someone who played that team from the BBMag, they're fun as long as you don't take things too seriously. I don't think they were too strong but I understand they were tough to beat. I'd be curious to see what Galak's titchy rules do. Not allowing them to exert a TZ for Dodging would weaken them pretty significantly.

However, allowing them to hire the Snotling Pump Wagon (pictured here in my avatar) would also help clear a path for a possible score! :lol:

...of course, it could just as easily cover the field with snotling pudding... :roll:

I thought these rules would be fun if not really fair to the snotling player. Of course since life isn't really fair to snotlings either no big deal.


The who, what, where.. rule:
Since Snotlings are so little, and insignificant no one really cares about them. This means 3 things... 1. If one gets injured, on a 4+ the ref misses the swap for a dead/injured snotling with a uninjured one. 2. since no one really trusts the little pricks they allways have someone watching them: on a 4+ they ignore tackle zones when dodging...rolled after declaring the intent to dodge(they still have +2 to dodge rolls). 3. After setting up your standard 11, you can keep adding snots as long as you can keep rolling 4+. yes that means up to 16 dudes on the field.

You put some thought into that. I like it. One question. I'm assuming the ref is the one always watching them. Would that put the eye on them the whole game or could it be drawn off them by having the other team foul a Snot, making swaps easier, maybe a 3+ or even all the way back to 2+. Might keep a team from just grinding them all in with their boots.

Also, I'd allow placing extra players on the field until you don't roll a 4+ but I might consider getting caught putting more players on the field would cause the ref to count and trim you back to 11. I'd have to play it both ways to see. I don't think the extra players will be a formidable as they were if Titchy is changed to not exerting TZs when the opposition makes a Dodge roll.

It's early, I need coffee. I'll be thinking about this today.

Just thinking what a snotling kicker would look like, obviously same stats as snots but with kick skill. Not sure how much would cost, Galak does your league have snot kickers? If so, what price? I know, snots won't be able to kick worth...snot, but it would be funny to try.

Snot kickers? Is that anything like kicking the snot out of the ball? How did they get the snot in the ball? :lol: :lol:

IMO a snotling would be too small to kick the ball effectively. Their titchy should shorten the distance they can kick it.

Nowww..... who wants to kick the snot outta me??? Bring it on.

Oh, you meant kicker who is a Snot, not someone who kicks Snots. I see now. :lol:

There is that one Snotling star player is a kicker model. Pretty cool but not as cool as the one crapping in the helmet.

the titchy roll doesn't need to be changed, the revised kicking rules hadle that, ST is used for distance so snots wouldn't be able to kick very far at all.

Snots ... you'd be proud of me ... running the Snotling team for the 3rd season of the MBBL2.

Yup. Gotta love them. I just read your account of the "1". Very amusing. My Skinks used to die in the endzone that way.
