Salutations FC community, I want to start a griffball league. Purple gamer was the one that originally organized a griffball night about a week ago and I'm pretty sure he'll hop on board again. So I was thinking of having a redd division and a blue division, each division would contain 7 teams of four people. Teams will play every Thursday and once each team in their respective divisions have played each other the top three teams will enter divisional playoffs. The winner of the blue division will play the champion of the redd division for the griffball cup. THIS IS A RECENT ADDITION IF YOU WANT TO HAVE PEOPLE FROM REDD AND BLUE IN YOUR TEAM, YOU WILL BE PLACED IN THE PURPLE DIVISION.


If you are interested, post your name along with your teammates and the name of your team.

Add a.backup as well

I was hoping to get more teams but we can have an exhibition between resistance and flaming penguins this Thursday

We will need to start sending messages online. Maybe get some higher up fc members too get their squads in to play as well. Let's do a few matches thursday and see what changes we can make.

I messaged a couple of people to see if they can put a team together if you know some other redd ask them. Purple is making a video montage. It'll take some time but I'm all for a match Thursday if you wanna get your guys together.

IrelandWolf
12-04-2012, 10:27 AM
Oh yeah dude. Thursday will be more than just a few games. We could make some custom maps if you want. The only rules I want to change from the original grifball rules is to remove the score limit and add a time limit. 3 rounds (Kinda like hockey) 5 minutes each round, score doesnt affect when the game stop. Sound good to you? Other than that I think grifball rules and mechanics are perfect.

I'll see who in REDWATCH wants in on this. I know there's some grifball fans. I tried to start up a grifball league of my own back in REACH. But I didn't have time to manage it, so it just kinda died. But I'll see who we can get in there.

DUKE LONGJOHNSON
12-04-2012, 02:42 PM
Thank you coda I greatly appreciate it. Ireland I like the three rounds but we're probably going to have score limits because in 5 minutes a slaughter could ensue. if you could make some maps that would be great purple already has some maps and James is also going to make some maps.

IrelandWolf
12-04-2012, 04:03 PM
True on the slaughter thing. Maybe 3 minute rounds. I say let the slaughter happen. Or we could input our own rules. Like if someone takes the lead by 5. It's an automatic win. Add me on Xbox: IrelandWolf

ANOTHER IDEA: For the maps, each team has their own home map. The team gets to make the map within reason. Assign head admind for the grifball league to approve the maps.

i love it man. Just do some REALLY heavy recruiting on redd side to get some more teams going. ill do the same for blue. If we all put enough effort in this thing can really get off the ground

Lol its James
12-04-2012, 09:30 PM
yeah, im planning on making some custom maps for the whole league, ummm probably around tommorow imma start it. Ill have DUke and Purple help me with the "home base" map, and ill work on a few in between. I have a lot of ideas to put in the maps.

Coda
12-04-2012, 09:53 PM
The maps should all be that basic, flat map. I wouldn't want to play grifball with buildings and such. But I'd like to see what kind of decorations and such you guys can put in.

Some ideas:
Make it on impact. Everything but the ground is mostly transparent, so you can see the meteors and whatnot.

Make it on Ravine. Forerunner-style grifball court.

DUKE LONGJOHNSON
12-04-2012, 10:16 PM
Yup so James is gonna do that Irelands gonna do some recruiting coda who don't you get a team together?

Thursday 8:00EST is Standard REDWATCH Practice time. I'd be unable to make that. And I have yet to get a team together.

DUKE LONGJOHNSON
12-05-2012, 01:21 AM

That's a good bracket Ireland. I'll make one too. Everyone needs to send me the maps. I going to need everyone to send messages to their friends, I want to see how many people we can get to show up if we get alot then we can worry about teams later. James did some forging. This is really starting to shape up. I'm so proud.

I didn't see it either. Mostly because if you're mobile, it cuts off half the Bracket and you can only see the left side haha.
