Just to be sure if I missed something, I joined the league, is there anything else that I need to know about to see if I am even eligible for a draw? I couldn't find anything on the page.

XFL is a series of tournaments, each consisting of a single race. The first round of race selections is what Cyrus is referring to. Once the races are chosen, the first of this season's tournaments will start up, one for each of the races chosen.

You've jumped the gun a bit. Just stay tuned for the races to be announced.

Thank you, Maysrill. Just wanted to make sure that I didn't miss anything else I needed to do before that stage happened. Smile

Sorry I didn't make it clear Muktar, it is too easy to assume things that are not obvious to newer coaches.

As maysrill said we are drawing three races from the 24 possibles on Wednesday.
You will then have one week to apply to the group with up to one team of each selected race. A knock out tournament will then be played between the teams of the same race.

Then over the next few months we will start more tournaments (three races each time) until all 24 races have taken part.

The tournaments are for Ranked division teams only, that can be of any Team value.

If you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask.

Another noob question: how are the KOs organised?
Do you have a set number to enter, and take only this number?
Or do you take a nice round (KO) number of teams?
Or do you let everyone in, and then pad it with filler teams?

Also, if there are teams to be excluded, is it done at random, or by TV?

Hmm... that turned into several noob questions Wink

We let anyone in!
So long as you apply with no more than one Ranked team of each selected race.
No TV TW or any other measure is excluded.

The most common errors are Wrong Division or race.

More noobiness...

Can I enter more than one tournament? And if so, am I right in thinking I apply to the same group here with all teams? Or am I missing the race-specific places to apply?

No problem Smile

You can apply all teams of the races specified in my blog and the press release that will follow later at the same place.

The staff sorts through the applications when it's time to launch the tournaments.

@muktar&james: you guys have pretty new teams. that shouldnt stop you from enterin (tourneys are always fun adn you get inducements at least) but just you know in advance - you may meet very developed teams on the way and will have a hard time vs them - so once the racres are drawn, get some games with teams you plan to enter (you can apply and still play games, just make sure they are "ready to play" when the draw is done.

Thanks for the warning. But ogres with inducements can be fun Razz (hoping for enough inducement cash to get 2 extra big guys along for the fun!)

Ogre's are an exception in that rookie all Snotling teams have done very well in the past!

The undefeated (*cough*) Bezt in da Wurld are very likely to participate. With one of the best players of the team missing (5 rush yards, mind you!), it's gonna be tough for the team, but the midgets are ready for the challenge.

Now, there are two questions remaining:

- How many rerolls should I discard?
- Do I want to induce star players (it would sound like cheating to me)?
