Perhaps we should have two teams?
I'd play in both if allowed (which it shouldn't be). |

Eh, if it's progression I'm out. Non-prog tourney was interesting, but I don't think this sounds too special. |

... now it's non-prog again? In any case, if there are 8 interested Amercians, we can certainly have 2 teams. |

Would that team be called "The Team without a Country"? |

Non progression is good, it will never work any other way. |

I'll step in for Team America. And I'm reasonably sure I've got at least three other team members ready to go also! Team to be determined but prolly elves. |

Sorry to hijack a really old thread.
Recently I came up with the idea to form a tournament based around the idea of 4 coaches representing their country as a team in a tournament. I thought with the ranked stable scene taking off, and the World Cup on, now would be the ideal time to test the water and maybe run it, but before putting the group page up, I had a quick check to see if anything similar had been done before and I found this group.
As it's from before my time on FUMBBL, did the tournament ever run? If so, was it a success? Or did the idea just die before it ever got started? I could save myself lots of time and effort if I knew no-one was interested or it was a nightmare to set up something along these lines.....
My idea was to have the 4 coaches from each country split across 4 divisions, and the divisions all play a scheduled round-robin season. The points gained by each coach would be totalled for each country, then the top 4 countries would go into semi-final playoffs, where the top ts team from team England (for argument's sake) would play the top ts team from team USA, and so on so that all 4 coaches on each team would play. The points again would be totalled, and the winning teams moved onto the final, where the same rules would apply. |

If it never happened before.. what makes you think it will happen now?
Besides, this sounds like a job for STABLE.

Yar - exactly what Synn said. I was looking to run something like this and found your thread that never got going, so I decided against it in the end. I think the stable caters for all of my team based needs now.
And wow - a whole year ago.... Man I feel old! |
