riadsala Posted April 14, 2012 Ah, didn't realise you weren't allowing two players to play the same team! Never mind, I'll take the Wood Elves (look to still be available at the moment!) No, you got me wrong, I'm not quite that harsh! The rule is no MORE than 2 players can play the same team. It gets boring playing against orcs, chaos and dwarves all the time! [which is what happened in the last league I was in] We have quite a nice diverse selection of teams! Anyhoo, I'll put you down as Wood Elves... good choice. It will be interesting to see how well the sole elf teams copes in the fairly bashy top division! Will we eventually see all the bashy teams rise to the top?

Also, means I have an excuse when I fail miserably! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Orv Posted April 14, 2012 Ah, didn't realise you weren't allowing two players to play the same team! Never mind, I'll take the Wood Elves (look to still be available at the moment!) I believe he's allowing two of each team in the league actually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Orv Posted April 15, 2012 Well at this rate I'd rather not play Blood Bowl at all with the luck I've been having, but I'll be playing High Elves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riadsala Posted April 15, 2012 Well at this rate I'd rather not play Blood Bowl at all with the luck I've been having, but I'll be playing High Elves. Great: the high elf v wood elf game should be interesting. So I'm just waiting for the Last Baron for this division. I believe the following races are now no longer available: Amazons Lizardmen High Elves If you have created your team, you can apply to join the league. My username is Riadsala, and the league is called "The Blood Bowl Cup of Tea" (or something similar, I'm on a mac just now so can't double check: sorry) The password is "Pootle" I will try and get Zryden (the 4th member of your division) to come and introduce himself. He's a guy I know from RPS forums. Also, there's a Steam group, called "The Blood Bowl Cup If Tea" (yes, I know, stupid spelling mistake). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLastBaron Posted April 15, 2012 Every other time I've tried to play Bloodbowl I've played Skaven so I guess I'm the most experienced with them, ignoring the fact I've lost every time I've played. That being said I think they're adorable so I'm going to go with them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That being said I think they're adorable so I'm going to go with them. Good choice, (I'm also playing skaven, although after coming second in season1, it's been a steady downhill slope). It's looking like a pretty agile selection of teams in this division, which is fun. Hopefully the league will kick off sometime next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zyrden Posted April 15, 2012 Hello people. I'll be crushing your players on the field with angry drunk men, look forward to it. I was in the last season as well, with a goblin team. That... didn't go so well. My first match ended with me having a whole 4 players left standing on the field. Every other match was decided primarily by luck, so I'm starting a new Norse team this season. And I am absolutely thrilled to go up against 3 squishy teams First time on this forum, so if you need to contact me, you'll probably have better success through the steam group. One thing though: I'm in the GMT +1 timezone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Orv Posted April 15, 2012 Last nights BB binge made me learn to really hate Norse. My friend's Norse team caused 1 death, 4 casualties (3 with lingering effects) and 3 KO's to my Dark Elf team in Auld World. I deactivated them for the time being. Fuck everyone having block.

Orv Posted April 16, 2012 (edited) Oh damn, I just played a few decent Undead and Necro games and quite like them. Oh well! Lizardmen are also quite good.

Gwardinen Posted April 18, 2012 A friend actually found a key for BB:LE for me, so I have it now! Is there any space left at all in the league? I'm really interested. If not, is there any way we can do an Idle Thumbs beginners league spinoff or something? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If not, is there any way we can do an Idle Thumbs beginners league spinoff or something? Hello guys, sorry for not being around much this week.. I've been very busy with work. Should be sorting out hte league over the weekend The team changes are noted and will be fine. Gwardinen--- this Season is going to be very short (only 3 games for each team) so you shouldn't have to wait to long at all. And I'll put you top of the list for if a space comes up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Orv Posted April 19, 2012 (edited) How do we handle team changes? I'm not aware of any method of deleting teams. E: I am now aware of a method of team and player deletion, but can't because of the league settings. Edited April 19, 2012 by Orvidos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gwardinen Posted April 19, 2012 Well my username on both Blood Bowl and Steam is Gwardinen, so if anyone fancies a game outside of the league, let me know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

riadsala Posted April 22, 2012 ah great. he's meant to be in the league Although it looks like I maybe miscounted places and the Last Baron has missed out? If so, please accept my apologise... I was busy with a conference for work last week and failed to keep track of things. This will be a very short season, so hopefully you can join us in a month or so Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
