Yes, with a real (if odd) prize!!!!!!

I love the top ten lists, and look through them often. Some are noticeably bare (Completions on Flesh Golems, Casualties for Wood Elf Catchers), and some are fascinating. I came to the ranked Skeleton on Undead team page today, and realized that it is, well, quite bare in general (with all due respect to the remarkable Gordon and his 78 completions). One needs only the minimum Touchdowns, Completions, Interceptions, or Casualties to make the list, and only two more than the minmum MVPs, and a simple offering of 54 SPP to make the Top Stars!

So here is the contest: Hire a new skeleton on a Ranked, Undead team (team can be existing), and get him as high on the lists as possible by the end of the year (December 31st). Points are awarded in reverse order of position in each category (1st=10 points, 2nd =9, 10th=1). The skeleton with the most points wins the actual prize!

Please sign up by listing your name, team name and player name(s) in this thread. Only skeletons whose first game takes place after this posting qualify and please include Mac as part of their name, so I can find them more easily. No limit on number of players entered. No Khemri players accepted.

All good, I like the new team!

By the way, it will be the ALL-TIME I'm looking at at the end, so if they do well, then die, you can still win.

Only the best skeleton from each coach will count, by the way, though, of course, your second best might lower the points of your opponents.

8 MVPs or 55 SPP could be harder to get to than 10 comps, tds, or cas...

I've already got some all-time top 10s, so I know how it's done Very Happy

Just a few matches into the contest, Mac's Unsung Hero jumps out to a roaring start -- five touchdowns and a completion in just four games! He's deceptively speedy out there on the pitch...

... and with his first skill roll, he gains the skill of ACCURATE on a doubles roll! Passing and scoring machine in the works! Second skill roll gains SURE HANDS for the lucky skeleton!

There are NO characters played by Clint Eastwood with Mac in their names(a couple of Mc's though). So I improvised Smile
