    Regular league has 28 teams. You would have to find out who is staying in and kick out all the rest and hope that you can restructure it so it fits with the remaining teams. Personally I would like to replace my Gobbo team with well pretty much anything else.

    I am in the process of asking the Stunty league coaches if they want to keep going or at least suck it up and play the last few games so we can give it a proper ending. So far I only heard back from @Foomy and @chrisnl but both are were willing to keep going. They actually have a match against each other that is long over due so maybe that will get played soonish.

    Did you send me a message? I didn't get it unless you sent it through BB which I've not launched in a while and always forget to check mail. Either way, I'm down for finishing ANY League.

    Yeah I'm totally on board with continuing the Blood Bowling, I had kind of been hoping that Tiger Burning would want to finish out the season in the regular league but I guess he's had enough for now. Diablo 3 and a double XP weekend in EQ2 ate my time recently, but I'll see if I can get something scheduled with Foomy for Stunty. My poor halflings haven't failed to perform the most basic Blood Bowl functions in a long time.

    I'd suggest it would be worth while allowing him to start a new team. The worst part about this sort of shit is he'll be playing with loners for so long, and all his MVPs will start going to the loners just making his team worse and worse. Ultimately we play for fun, and none of that sounds fun.

    Nah, if I restart with a new team it'll be unfair on the four teams I've yet to play. I'd say they're 99.99% certain to be retired at the end of the season, though. Besides, it seems like all the bad luck I was meant to have with my High Elves ended up on my Pro Elves, so if the Regular League gets going again, I can keep the Pro Elves as a badly mutilated good luck charm/sacrifice to Nuffle.

    So me and @R0land1188 started our Weekly League match but at the start of the second half things were not looking good for him and then he DCed and now I don't know if I should validate it and doom his team or throw out a match that is going to be really hard to beat.

    Thinking it over getting a redo on the first half cause something caused a DC at the start of the second half. If he is upset over the lost gold and MVP SPP then I'll let him remake his team the same way as the first time and get that dead player and -1 St off his werewolf if it doesn't piss off the rest of the league. Which is probably a better a really good trade for him.

    Yeah, MV 8 isn't as good as MV 9 but it's still MV 8 with AG 4. He's still a deep striking threat to the ball carrier.

    I have a thoughtful and infrequently updated blog about games http://whatithinkaboutwhenithinkaboutgames.wordpress.com/

    I made a game, it has penguins in it. It's pay what you like on Gumroad.

    @mrt144, even though I'm in the UK, that'll still be fine; a bank holiday plus the Queen's diamond jubilee means a 4 day weekend, so Sunday night/early hours of Monday morning isn't a problem.

    I'll almost certainly be out at that time. I probably won't be available until 3pm your time at the earliest, but it's not like I actually need to get up on Monday. :)

    Any Stunty league game that isn't played by the weekend is getting auto resolved so the league can move forward.

    So TNTrooper and I got our Weekly league game in yesterday. Dwarves vs Vamps. I suffered from some bad dice for most of the game and it ended up as a loss to me 2-1. Some key highlights were a quick end change to almost score prior to the end of the second half, only to have a 1 dice block rerolled from a push into a defender down or something to knock the ball carrier down and a dwarf with 3 tackle zones (not that the tackle zones actually matter) plucking the ball out of the air as I threw it to a vamp in the end zone.

    One thing that sucked was I failed a blood lust roll, and went to hand off the ball to another vamp, but there was a thrall there to be bitten. I had to bite the thrall before doing the hand off, which was no problem, but then I had to roll to pass the ball, which failed. I used a reroll and passed, but then the vamp that I handed off to failed his GFI at the end zone because I had to burn my reroll early. Sucked, but don't think it would have changed the outcome of the game.

    Blitz and I just finished our game and lets just say, we failed more pickups by almost 2:1 than we picked up. with elves and skaven no less.

    Someone must've smeared butter on the ball between turns 2 and 3. Can't recall seeing any halflings running onto the field, though. We both tried picking up the ball from turn 3 onwards, and neither of us succeeded until turn 8, I think.

    Anyway, skaven beat elves 2-1. That last kick-off event was utter BS though; pitch invasion left me with one guy standing, who was a loner, in three tackle zones. "Here, have the ball; it landed off the field."

    Good match with TNTrooper earlier tonight. I had awful, awful luck all the way through, and TNT's wasn't much better. I lucked out in the last moments of the game and managed to squeak a TD in turn 16.

    Well me and Blitz played our Weekly game. I was receiving and thanks to a fireball thrown into a cage by a crazed fan that only managed to knock down the runner with the ball and a lucky double red die Blitz managed to keep me from scoring. But it was a bloodbath that put 2 players in coffins and left half his team injured or KOed. The ending was just brutal. First Blitz failed a GFI, then I failed a GFI despite a reroll, then Blitz failed another GFI, followed up with me failing another rerolled GFI and then Blitz failed a GFI and this time the lineman ended up dead. The second half started with his players on the pitch being equal to his players in coffins thanks to a high injury count and none of KOed guys getting back up. A Troll Slayer got sent to the dungeon thanks to a bad call by the ref and Blitz managed to use the blob of players to his advantage to push a Blocker off the field but the audience didn't do anything except get his autograph. Then the next turn my other Troll Slayer did the same trick to push one of his guys off and since I didn't want to reroll a both down/attacker down his guy managed to stay on the pitch. Of course while this was going on my Runner had snuck off with the ball handing it to a Blitzer to score. Final kickoff 3 of his KOed guys managed to get up giving him some more players but with his defensive lines stretched thin and a fumbled throw the Dorfs managed to get the ball in the hands of a Blitzer to run it in ending the game at 2-0.

    Do you know when you will be able to play again? No one really plays their games at the start of the week so I can give you some more time. I just want to know if you and Blitz will be using it.

    I think the other problem is we've kept missing each other so far due to timezone issues. With R0land being on the west coast of the US, and me being in the UK, it pretty much limits us to weekends or holidays. I would say just give us a draw to keep things moving if needed, but that seems unfair, given that I have no less than 5 loners, and nothing short of extremely biased dice would stop it being a win to R0land.

    So I'm going to own up to my shittiness and my part played in the leagues grinding to a halt. Sorry for being absent.

    That being said, if anyone wants to play an open league game or whatever to be bashful about steam messaging me. I'm going to try to get the messenger on my phone so i can see it and respond if i am up to other things.
