TBB Season III Update

Post by browwnrob »

Hey folks!

The league stages of Season II have just finished, with a goblin team topping the table with a fantastic 5-5-0 record (for goblins!) and becoming top seed for the playoffs in the Rookie season! A nice mix of finesse and bash, with 2 Chaos, 1 Amazon, 1 Skaven and 2 Wood Elf teams in the playoffs as well as the Goblins. A vamp team has also done well to reach the final stage! I can’t pick a winner from these teams.

In the Elite League, a lot less games have been played but the 4 team playoff has some great ties, and a potential rematch of last seasons Rookie final, where thesquig’s Undead defeated gken1’s Orcs. They are the top two teams in The Elite league and I’m sure gken1 would relish the chance for a rematch!

Once the playoffs have been completed, there will be a 2-week break before Season III starts. A lot of coaches joined but never played a game so I’m hoping that changes for Season III.

For the Elite III, It would be good if coaches who definitely want to be part in Elite Season III would PM any of the group staff and we can invite you in, or, posting in the forum topic. Please also PM me or post in the forum topic if you want to participate in Rookie III

For Season II I have had an idea (well its not been well thought out!). During the league, it might be cool to have a midleague mini tourney or an instant tourney. Not an idea set in stone, but might help the folk in the league keep motivated and give some of the smaller teams a chance to shine in the cup if the league play hasn’t been doing well (Liverpool anyone? :) ). If you have any ideas at all, don’t be afraid to post them on the forum topic, or PM me with them.

How do you feel the Season is progressing? Do you like the points for winning matches etc? Does it favour any teams in particular? Some of you have had problems playing with the Java Client, or connecting to the group chatroom. If anyone wants help with anything, then give me a shout, and I’ll see what I can do!

If you know of any TBB member who would be interested in this league then by all means get them involved!
If anyone would fancy the chance to be part of the group staff (not too much responsibility, issuing invites, setting up tournies etc) then I’d be happy to have more. Valen was on the staff but has taken a break from FUMBBL so if anyone would like to help out then give me a shout!

Anyway thanks for playing in the league, and hope next season is an even bigger success!

When will the play-off matches be announced?

Me myself and I thought that it had a big drive up front but once the 10 games were played I couldn't really do anything but wait. I would relish an inter game mini league. Shame some teams were listed but didn't even see a game!

Points were fine and fair! I enjoyed it.... Now What about the play offs again?? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

If it was a seeded draw it was wrong buyt I think we ended up with a lottery draw this time.

yeah, I edited the group scores and chose to seed by group score, so I thought that would have sorted it out, but obviously not!

Is everyone ok with the current seeding? Its my fault, and ill hold my hands up here :roll:

We've already begun the playoffs so we can't really change the game that has been played. I for one prefer the amazon matchup A LOT to Chunky's gruesome ultrastrong chaos team :)

Opponent & standings ....Go Gals!!!!

Dallas Bloodboys FC Vampire 4/0/3 70000 3 - 2 161 Nil

Well he had me down at 0-2 with 4 turns to go and my good gals pressed home a victory on one drive...then a miracle happened..... 2 blitzes on the trot and boy did these Gals Kick ass!! (oh and I had to kiss Nuffles Ass also as I promised to do so...I am converted....Sorry!!)

Buffy the Vamp slayer (I mean Zara) kicked the Vamps to kingdom come with 2 dead and 1 hurt. She did good and thus is back on roster.

Extra time scored to make it a decisive 3-2!!

A good opponent and a great game on both sides!! :)

Well. Wave motion is hard at work in its off season training for the next elite season. A lot of players have been retired and new ones must be trained if the little rats are to redeem themselves.

I enjoyed myself immensely in this league, gave me lots to complain about which is great fun for me :lol:

I will be interested in rookie season III as well. Believe I will be playing some type of team with some sort of armor value.... Haven't decided on the exact team yet though.
