League record..?
On Saturday 11th October, Grind kicked off it's open season format in style with an impressive 13 league games played between about 10:00 and 3:00 (which I know is technically Sunday). This was over 20% of the League games played for the day. I don't know the most single-league games played in 24 hours but although it may not be a record I feel it must be close and that the coaches involved, a mixture of seasoned stalwarts and eager newcomers, should be celebrated.

It's going to take a while to sift through all those results for the next update!

Well done folks, fantastic day. \o/

Very nice indeed!

However, I'm pretty sure BB7s will have had days like that, especially when one of the big tournaments kicked off (and coaches did not only play their tournament, but also casual games). There was no limit to open games (since they were not embedded in a tournament structure), so coaches frequently used to play a lot of games back to back, often against the same coaches with the same teams. Alas, that was 2010-2011 or so (haven't been there before, myself).

It indeed reminds me of the good old BB7s days and it bugs me I wasn't able to play at least a single GRIND game tonight. :-(

Nice eager group of coaches :-)

Well done!

You know you want to play Russo ;-)

In swedish league one team played their round 4 game before the first deadline.
That's the fastest i've seen, but not ORR.
145 league is usually a really busy ORR league.

lol like I say I whilst it sounds good I can't be bothered at the moment having to meet all the rules.

Fair enough, though so as not to give the wrong impression there isn't actually that much you need to read to get started. The basics are:
- Create 11 man team with no re-rolls, FF, Cheerleaders or Coaches.
- Pick team and player names appropriate to Tilean fluff.

No RRs!? With my bad dice I tend to have 5 or 6 on my more developed teams.
Posted by Rabe on 2014-10-13 16:49:20
You can earn RRs, it just takes some time for the players to find together as a team. ;-)
Posted by xnoelx on 2014-10-13 16:54:53
Royston: Maybe the problem isn't really that you have bad dice. Maybe the problem is that you're giving away 3 rerolls worth of TV which your opponent has as skills...
Posted by mister__joshua on 2014-10-13 16:58:11
It's a different way of playing for sure :) Though everyone elses lack of re-rolls tends to balance it out somewhat :P
Posted by Russo on 2014-10-13 17:16:02
Well I played in a really good league a few years ago Called We Dont Need No Steenkin Rerolls

Was brilliant fun and very tactical.

Would be nice if we could restart it :-)

Also the old NBL (No Block League) was awesome too, that used to get its games played pretty quick using the open system. Obviosuly you could not have Dorfs or Norse and only Hobgoblins and minos if you took CD's
Posted by mister__joshua on 2014-10-13 17:46:45
The open system has kicked off much bigger than I expected, though really that is the side-show to the scheduled league.

Grind is reduced re-roll and reduced Block rather than none of either. You just have to work towards such things, or teams that start with them have pay-offs in other areas.
