The idea of honouring past players, etc is a great idea.
Cheers for pointing that out.
So, what/who are this season's conferences named after? |

For questions like this, it's a great idea to check out the SWL Hall of Fame. For the tl;dr crowd though, here's a snippet:
The first conference is named after the BBQ Wednesday Regulars. Coached by former commish, danielcollins, these stalwarts of the league featured heavily in the earlier seasons. While they enjoyed success, they never quite reached the penultimate prize. For funtime reading, check out some match reports!
The second conference could refer to any of coach erikekers' teams. One of the most successful coaches EVER, erikekers took the Woodies Double franchises to 6 separate prem victories - twice each with:
Wood Elves (seasons 18 and 22)
Chaos (seasons 27 and 30)
Vampires(!) (seasons 37 and 38)
The final conference is named for the famed Ecclesiarchs of Unsanity. Coach snorri did what was at the time unthinkable, improbable, impossible - achieve SWL Prem victory with Undead. Losing only 6 games in their career, the Ecclesiarchs are synonymous with achieving the improbable (and hoarding cash so you can Count your way to prem victory). |

How about a list of prem champions underneath the Hall of Fame going all the way back to season 1.
I know all the info is there in the Tournaments tab, but you have to do a lot of clicking to even get an impression of who the successful coaches and races are.
Something like:
List of Champions
LVII Slumbering Skink Lizardman Faulcon
LVI Kowabunga Connection Dwarf Tomay
LV ...etc |

Or even the racial winners. For example, Orcs haven't ever won SWL which flabbergasts me.
Who the others? Which race is out in front etc etc. |

There may well be something like that in the pipeline...

Just want to format it and I will post it up.
How's that? |

Just give me a bit of time. I am at work but I didn't have a huge amount to do (waiting on a call back).
I will format it up.
Ideally I want to divide it by race in a sort of table. Kind of like this:
Race - Championship Seasons
Coach - Team - Season - Points total.
Do it for every race that has won Prem. If I get announced as the official historian  I will go through and get career stat leaders, highest finish of a race not to win etc. |

Not sure. I believe they were on the old website (before my time). But I went through the FUMBBL tournaments listings to get heaps of stuff. That was just a taster. |

On another note, having put out that thread calling High Elves, essentially, cooler than cool, that 0 titles looks like something I would want to try and change!! |
