Hey everyone,

I just wanted to give everyone an update. We're on schedule to start the league in January. However, we've had a late run of signups (amazing how a final deadline gets everyone moving) so in the last week and a half we've gone from 6 teams to what I think will end up being 9 teams.

So I've had to rework the schedule a few times to make it all work. I'm hoping to have everything sent out and shared to everyone in the next few days. I'll be posting to the forum as well as sending direct emails to everyone involved.

Here are the teams:
1B-BabiesPeriwinkleClarkenfeldoncesannheten
2Usual SuspectsbilsitapewormLovGovstephenator
3Turkish PeachesAllforSiamcrimeariverchrismudgeelturco
4IronCardinalKarmaKillIronDukeBadKarmaEasytoKillCardinalsrule

8DiscoPantsandHaircutsWTBS-Superstationbytorandthesnowdogphermanatorpuck-muad-dib
9You Talking To MeGenghisknowstpl3

I imagine we'll have Genghis' team filled in the next few days as we had a couple free agents looking for teams. If any of the Free Agent teams have a team name, let me know.

Thanks for your patience. Thanks for signing up. Hope this works!

Best,

Siam

Is changing team names easy once we start ? Was thinking we should have a better name than Free Agent Team A :lol: - something like "BoyKing at GraveCity"

Yes, very easy to change the team name. I think anything is an upgrade over Free Agent Team A. Let me know if you want BoyKing at GraveCity or something else.

Here is a link to the league page where you can see the standings, the schedule, rosters, and rules.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1KsfRyhM82eBFc9mIoM_AAX9LpmfwO0iRIkLjyAQDxJg/edit?usp=sharing

I will be sending an email soon to your team captains to discuss the best way to schedule matches. Please be responsive and quick to join games...that will be the hardest part of this.

Thanks for playing and good luck!

Let me know if you have any questions or need anything.

Great suggestion, I'll add the links to the schedule page as I get them. So far only your match has been sent to me and is under way. Overachievers you are!

Apparently, I missed out on joining my team's game and someone else is there now. TankEater asked me if I could join his team fro someone missing. I am still willing to play - just not sure how to get added to a game.

as long as a game has not started, players who notice that someone else has joined by accident should write a nice msg to whoever joined by accident so they go away. but there is little to be done when the game has already started. safe for starting a new one..?

i think it would be helpful to inform all participating players when the game will be open to join, so whoever sets up the game (hometeam i presume?) could send out a prior warning maybe 24hrs ahead of time with a scheduled signup time, so everyone at least knows when they should ideally be online. if someone knows they will not be able to be online at this time they could hand the keys to their account to another player they trust?
i would also very much suggest activating email-notifications for incoming messages.

also, where is tapeworm??

fhunt3, I have you taken care of. I'm working with Tank to setup the game. So keep your eyes peeled for a game invite in the next week.

Once,

If a random person joins a game, messaging them asking them to leave the game is probably your best strategy.

If the game has already started, then you would need to start a new game.

I messaged the captains and suggested picking a specific date and time that everyone could be ready to join a game. Then the home team creates the game, emails the link to the game and then everyone can join. I think one of our games did that and is scheduled to do start it tomorrow. I know we're trying to do that for our game.

Finally, I have no idea what happened to tapeworm. Hope they're okay.
