Talk seems in order.
I'd suggest that each of the 4 coaches for each stable have a tier 1, tier 2, and tier 3 team.
No coach can field any his teams more than once for every 3 tourneys.
This adds a new level of strategy. Ie; do I want to field my A-game vs Stable Deuche, or save my best team for Stable McAwesome?
So this would be a multi-tiered League, but set schedule, so you know what Stable you're facing, and in what order.
The person setting up the tourney is not involved in the tourney (ie; neutral 3rd party), and therefore it is a secret as to which coach is fielding which of his 3 teams in any given tourney until the tourney starts. Obviously there would be inter-stable discussion as to which coach brings which team. |

As it has happened so many times, another great league idea that is tempting me. In fact, I had plans to create my own 1 vs 1 league based on stables, with different formats. Throweck knows what I'm talking about. I think I even have the various tournaments written down somewhere...
I'm currently in a consolidation face considering FUMBBL, but a well-themed stable with not too many obligations would sure tempt me a lot. |

Do you and I really want to be handicapped by people who know what they're doing on the pitch? |

You have 4 stables lock horns in a 8 man KO tournament. Each stable sends 2 teams. The Tournament comish then seeds the KO with 1 team from the 4 stables in the top bracket and the lower bracket. This format can be expanded for up to 16/32/64 team tournaments. KO format IMO is ideal because it is a short time commitment and most coaches can handle a one match a week format for 3 weeks and if you are knocked out, well, we will see you next month. Also the ability to “seed” the tournament is key.
Every coach can bring whatever league team he wants, no restrictions. The only restrictions that will be set up is that some of these KO events might have Tournament Weight limits and so forth, we will get into that later. So it is good to have a diverse group of coaches who have teams covering all the ranges in each Stable.
Each win gives your stable 5 points. Winning the KO gets your stable a 10 point bonus. IF both teams from the same stable meet in the final the stable gets another 5 pt Bonus.
Each Stable will have a total score for the season, how ever long that is determined to be and at the end of it which stable has the most points, wins.
For each of the tournaments one of the stables is considered the organizer. All stables get one tournament that they sponsor. The Organizing stable gets to determine what, if any, optional rules their tournament will run under. So, some tournaments might have CPOMB nerfs, some might have spiked balls, some might have no optional rules and some might hand out cash for inducements.
The side effect of this is now since each stable gets to sponsor a tournament in the Stable war cycle that opens up the door for a lot of fluff around each tournament. Stables who provide no fluff for their tournament are, well, boring and most likely should be banned from Stable, IMHO.
Now how do “we” get this up and running at prime hours for most coaches?
Each stable should reach out and attempt to recruit coaches from both Europe and North America for their stable. That way when a new Stable KO is getting set “we” can set up a Europe and a North America event. This encourages Stables to have coaches in the two primary timezones because the stable needs points to win the overall title. So if a Stable has no North American coaches or vice versa, they are losing out on points in Tournaments they do not compete in.
Now it is time to get even more Fluff mileage out of this. Some Stables might be formed up because of geography, friends or league members joining the same stable. That is fine and dandy but I think stables formed up around a theme is more fun.
That is why Iam going to make a stable that is called Devastation Incorporated, an old wrestling stable of “heel” wrestlers from the 80’s, this stable will only accept: Chaos, Nurgle, Chaos Dwarf, Chaos Pact and Norse teams into their stable. We are going to bring destruction!
Now that I got your attention.
Iam tired of all this talk. I want action, so, do you want me to set this league up, get it set to go? Or do we want to talk some more? |
Well I'm glad I started something. I have a lot to do write now with moving house and such but if you want me to ba second admin PS I am happy to do it as I have already created a group. |

I think each Stable should have an admin-type, to run the other tourneys. |

Shall I start this up?
Also, points to consider:
1) Do we want to make it 2 N/A coaches & 2 Euros per Stable or just 4 coaches?
2) Do we want to do the 3 teams per coach of each tier?
3) Any other concerns
(Note: Please don't comment if you have no intention of being involved) |

I do have a concern Mr. Brasky
Your vision of Stable is very convoluted and for some coaches way to much of a commitment.
My version is easy, straight forward and makes the time commitment to this very small.
That is just me.
Lets see what other coaches think. |

No more talk on this for some time...
So here's my idea:
4 coaches make up a stable. Each coach has 3 teams - 1 from each tier.
Stables face each other head to head.
Each stable brings a team from each tier +1 more (most likely another tier 1, but it doesn't have to be).
This would get rid of using each tier so many games, and just require that per matchup, each stable must field all 3 tiers.
Mostly about bragging rights, but after all of the Stables have faced each other, there will be a big KO tourney.

I'd say go non prog. I suppose you would need admin help.
e.g. 1200TV + n skills.
That way each coach only needs one or two teams. That would give more even matches. People are less likely to be put off by teams being out matched. |

While that's an interesting idea academically, I don't think anyone would want to play in a non-progressive league. |
