Teturact Posted December 22, 2021 Report Share Posted December 22, 2021 It's mostly new players a couple of my buddies are veterans of when we had a league in early 2000s and I dragged a bunch of bar friends into it. we've only been together since like april and I wasn't really looking to branch out yet. we are near the end of our second season doing some end of season tournaments (playoffs and a losers bracket) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a solid group with a good mix of almost 30 year veterans to some newer players. A core group of us are pretty well versed in the tourney scene across the US and go to many up and down the west coast as well as the occasional Midwest trip. We have very good contacts with the larger player bases across the US and are very close to the BC, Puget Sound, Bay area, Salt Lake City, LV groups among others. I look forward to seeing you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amado Posted December 26, 2021 Report Share Posted December 26, 2021 Are you suggesting that knowledge of the maps should influence my strategy? Or that I should have a strategy? Or any idea of what I'm doing at all? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weav Posted December 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2021 BBRoster.com has been updated to include Dungeon Bowl teams.

Amado Posted December 29, 2021 Report Share Posted December 29, 2021 The Steely Dangers, College of Metal Initially entering the Dungeon Bowl circuit to much acclaim, the Steely Dangers began as a well-mixed team of Human and Orc players. Over time, however, reckless coaching and poor luck with explosive chests weeded out the relatively fragile human players through natural attrition, leaving a core of tough Orc veterans. Not that they've all emerged unscathed, either - celebrated technical player Deacon Blues is now more machine than Orc. The only (presumed) human remaining on the team is the Bloodseeker Brother Lou, who the orcs respect for his capacity for violence even though he's said to be "a bit too into blood, innit?" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weav Posted December 31, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 Quick note, New Year's Blitz participants: if there is a situation not covered by the rules we will revert to the most conservative interpretation. For example, @MrCushtie has been asking some real noodle-scratchers in the Dungeonbowl Fans Facebook Group, and not getting many replies. For example: Quote "Fumblerooski allows you to place the ball in any square you vacate as you move or blitz. Does that include a teleporter? I'm imagining some sort of shenanigans where you teleport in one direction and (hope) the ball goes in another. (The rules say a loose ball that lands on a teleporter is teleported. Since a Fumblerooski'd ball is *not* loose, will it teleport? Or should it sit there (similar to the debate about whether a person who is knocked down on a Both Down on a teleporter should teleport or not)." In cases like this that are not covered in the rulebook, we will rule that the ball bounces from the teleporter, and does not teleport to a different teleporter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weav Posted December 31, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 Unlike other Ordo Blood Bowl events, we don't quite have a fixed schedule for New Year's Blitz. The reason is that this format is so new, it is difficult to anticipate how long matches will take. We are playing four rounds of Dungeon Bowl, and we will observe the following timing conventions: Minimum round time: 50 minutes Maximum round time: 1.5 hours Break time between rounds: 15 minutes Final game each round: if the final table isn't finished before 50 minutes, the two coaches will have twenty minutes to finish the remainder of their game; if neither player wins, the game will be declared a 0-0 draw after the active coach's currently active player finishes their activation As a result, here is the loose schedule for Saturday's tournament: 10:30am: Registration and rules discussion Apprx 11am: Game One begins Apprx 12:30pm: Game Two begins Apprx 2:00pm: Game Three begins Apprx 3:30pm: Game Four begins Apprx 5:15pm: Awards Due to the potential for draws, here is the scoring mechanism and tie-breakers for the event: Win: 30 tournament points Draw: 10 tournament points Loss: 0 tournament points Casualties caused: 1 tournament point for each casualty-caused that would earn SPPs Found the ball first: 2 tournament points Gold collected: 1 tournament per 10,000K gold collected in the Treasure Room in dungeons that feature that room Scored first but didn't discover the ball first: 1 tournament point Our winner will be the coach with the most tournament points. The tie-breakers are (for results only, not matching): Head to Head Strength of Schedule (as determined by SCORE) Casualties Caused Gold Collected 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weav Posted December 31, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 For clarity sake, this is a resurrection tournament. Yes, there is a tournament points incentive for collecting gold in the Treasure Room, but without that this room has no effect. In addition, with one TD winning a game, I desperately needed to locate things to vary out the tournament points and create tie-breakers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jollyork Posted January 1, 2022 Report Share Posted January 1, 2022 Scored first but didn't discover the ball first: 1 tournament point Doesn't that mean you already won the game (and get points for that)? There is only 1 TD to score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
