The Agility Beads
The Deserted Isles is home to a number of prestigious competitions. There have been two Big Star Cauldrons, and last summer we saw the Dirty Stars strut their stuff. This time it's Elf Ball, with the agility stars about to shine.
Not counting the Count and Grotty who got their chance in Big Star, we have 12 Ag4+ stars. Their major disadvantage compared to their often Ag4 team mates is Loner. So to mitigate this there will be NO REROLLS allowed in the team build.
The Rules.
The competition comprises of three pools of 4 teams. Teams must be made with the standard 1000k, and built with at least 11 players. They also must maintain in their treasury the value of their unique Agile Star chosen from the list below:
Dolfar Longstride, 150k, Elf, High Elf, Wood Elf - TAKEN
Skitter Stab-Stab, 160k, Skaven, Underworld - TAKEN
Soaren Hightower, 180k High Elf - TAKEN
Eldril Sidewinder, 200k, Dark Elf, Elf, High Elf, Wood Elf - TAKEN
Hakflem Skuttlespike, 200k, Skaven - TAKEN
Horkon Heartripper, 210k, Dark Elf - TAKEN
Prince Moranion, 230k, Elf, High Elf - TAKEN
Roxanna Darknail, 250k, Amazon, [s]Dark Elf[/s] - TAKEN
Quetzal Leap, 250k, Lizardman, Slann - TAKEN
Hubris Rakarth, 260k, [s]Dark Elf[/s], Elf - TAKEN
Jordell Freshbreeze, 260k, Elf, [s]Wood Elf[/s] - TAKEN
Griff Oberwald, 320k, Human - TAKEN
For example. A Lizardman team with Quetzal Leap (250k), could be made of 7 skinks (420k), 4 saurus (320k) and 1 cheerleader (10k). Total 750k. 250k kept in treasury for Quetzal.
Some races cannot afford an eligible star. e.g. Dark Elf cannot get Roxanna within the 1000k budget.
Bonus inducement cash will be given every game. This can only be spent on the chosen star. Don't spend your Star treasury on anything.
After the round robin the winners of each pool will advance to the semi finals. Tiebreakers (let FUMBBL decide - I think it's CAS diff + TD diff).
One wild card team will join them. The Wild Card will be the team with the Agile Star who has earned the most SPP (by any means bar MVP). Wild card tiebreaker (closest to a season Larsen, e.g. 2TD, 3Cas, 3Cp beats 5TD. after that coin flip)
No spiked ball, no foul boost.
Entry
As with the Big Star and Dirty Star the teams will be selected on a first come first served basis. However, as we always like to encourage new blood this will be a staged selection.
Stage 1 (deadline 18/11): Deserted Isles residents new to DIBBL
Stage 2 (deadline 20/11): Deserted Isles residents already in DIBBL
Stage 3 (deadline 21/11): Offshore coaches able to commit to a general kick off time of 6pm to 10pm (NZ time)
Kick off 21/11. Weekly round deadlines. Let's get this thing knocked off before Christmas.
Coaches are encouraged to incorporate their Agile Star into the team name.

Mate, I always enjoy these sorts of events you run. I'd be keen but I think I'd be jumping the gun deadline wise as I technically fall into the the stage 3 category, based on the staged recruitment. Keep me in mind for what is left over come stage 3! |

Just making the effort to keep anybody who cares informed, I'm still over committed in the real world, and won't be able to take part in this. |
