Let's make sure the same thing doesn't happen next week!
Apply now! These could be some of your last chance to get a Smack win before we change ruleset!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi,
Thank you for your FUMBBL SMACK Scheduled application(s) this week.
Unfortunately there are not enough teams to start another tournament at this time and therefore all remaining teams have been denied.
Feel free to apply again for next weeks FUMBBL SMACK Scheduled tournaments.
Sincerely,
The Tournament Staff |

Or maybe set some kind of limit to how many of one race that can apply. Yeah, I'm talking about the dwarves. 50 % dwarf rate can discourage almost anyone from entering, hehe |

Actually, I thought it was Undead that caused the issue
Nice to see Rij and shadow getting so many scheduled smacks started these days though. I remember back when Qaz and I were still struggling to build up interest in them!
Also, like Blackbox, I suspect you will also find a few coaches moving over to FFB more and more. |

Damned count-hiring Undead! I guess the TV cut-offs in LRB 5/6 will make Smacks a lot more even (at least if bank balance is added to the TV). |

Usually there are not that much dorfs.
I do recall starting a sched smack with 6 undead and 2 necromantic teams though. |

not getting into a smack can be prevented by applying early, and not waiting until the last minute to apply...
4 brackets kicked off this week, that's 32 teams accepted...while not the most we've started in a week, it's getting better than what we've seen in the past few months, where we've only kicked off 1 or 2...

I applied with 4 teams and only my halflings didn't make it, since there weren't enough teams for a TR125 Smack. Apply for the TR125 Smack next week. Better yet, let's make it an all halfling event! |

My schedule only really makes 1 tourney at a time practical. If I lose my XFL game (scheduled for this afternoon, check your local listings), I'll try to make a point of applying with a team (possibly some very fat'n'happy ogres with an inflated TR). |
