Wednesday sees the opening of applications for the [B] Minors.
They will be titled [B] Minors.
But there are three weight divisions, and they are as yet un-named.
At this beta stage, as Plan [B] explained, this first [B] Minor will run at any of the three weight Divisions, to give us a starting point, and there after at any of the two not run immediatly prior.
The current bands for these divisions are:
110 +3 D12,
140 +3 D12
170 +3 D12.
As/When the division is fuller and more mature, these bands may move.
But they are currently un-named. As i am creating the homepage for [B] minors this weekend, I'd like to pick names.
Small, Medium, Large
OR
Light, Medium and Heavy
Are distinct possiblities, but rather dull. So, can anyone do better? |

How about some names that reflect the races you'll most met in the Box.
Just throwing in some brainstorming... somebody take these and improve them somehow...
Dwarf Bowl, Orcland Stadium Cup, Khemri Challenge, Tournament of Chaos
All of those are pretty generic and could use some punching up. |

Featherweight, Lightweight, Heavyweight, and Champion (Champion is the unlimited level). Not much of an improvement but maybe it will inspire someone.
Edit: bah too slow, I like the Elfweight, Orcweight thing though. |

veiled
cryptic
arcane
I went the synonym route:
Main Entry: mysterious
Part of Speech: adjective
Definition: secret, concealed
Synonyms: abstruse, alchemistic, arcane, astrological, baffling, cabalistic, covert, cryptic, curious, dark, difficult, enigmatic, enigmatical, equivocal, esoteric, furtive, hidden, impenetrable, incomprehensible, inexplicable, inscrutable, insoluble, magical, mystical, mystifying, necromantic, obscure, occult, oracular, perplexing, puzzling, recondite, secretive, sphinxlike, spiritual, strange, subjective, symbolic, transcendental, uncanny, unfathomable, unknowable, unknown, unnatural, veiled, weird
Notes: mysterious means of an obscure nature, while mystical means having a divine meaning that transcends human understanding |

Greenhorn Grass Games
Seasoned Squad Showdown
Professional Power Play
(there's something hypnotic about alliteration)
So much for random ideas, you probably want something simple for the minors, yet catching.
Freshman
Seasoned
Professional
or just look up some synonyms that describes the different classes by weight. |

I would just name them after their TR band so everyone knows what it means. |

I like this, it might not be the most interesting naming policy, but it's simple and clear, which I think is important.
It's somewhat similar to Smacks which have Rookie, Experiences, Veteran etc... |
