hey guys!
i was thinking about starting a new booster league...wait. before you click the "back" button on your web browser or you click on the next thread, let me explain.
This is NOT an official VASSAL league!!! there are WAAAYYY too many leagues going on right now (4 i think) all of which im part of (lol
). so if you people like what im about to propose and comment "nice" things about it, then i'll kick it off promply after some leagues end and such.
i've been wanting to start a VASSAL league of my own for about 2 weeks now, and R5Don4 inspired me for this league idea on VASSAL when he was complaining that he was tired of power creep (sorry if i misquoted you on that lol...at least that's what i interpreted anyways). so, i figured i'd create a league that would only incorporate boosters from universe and BEFORE. meaning, no COTF, and TFU, no LOTF, etc. etc.
some of you might think this is a really bad idea, but i think many of us (ex. Don) would appreciate this old school league where there are very few broken squads out there. (i see some eyes opening when they read this lol
)
Anyways, here's what im thinking:
This league will NOT be like a normal booster league where your luck 100% completely decides your fate. IMO, i don't think that's very "fair".
There will be most likely 8 (or 16 if this league is a hit...which i hope, but am doubtful) people, so 2 (or 4) people will get the same booster (ex. RS, CS, ROTS, UNIV). and to make things "equal and fair" everyone will get the same amount of each booster (ex. if the league runs for 8 weeks, each person will end up recieving x2 of each booster).
NOW, here's what im thinking in terms of boosters:
-you choose which boosters you want at the BEGINNING of the league, but you're allowed NO MORE than x2 of one booster. you get two boosters to start out with. (ex., if the league runs 6 weeks you choose a total of 8 different boosters, and you choose which 2 to open first at the beginning of the league, and then you choose which booster to open next week, and so on)
Playoffs would work as most sports leagues would work:
Lowest seed vs. Highest seed
2nd lowest vs. 2nd highest
and so forth
So what do you guys think? IMO, this league would be very interesting to see...especially if vaderSL ends up pwning the whole league, lol. this also gives people somewhat control over theirpulls by being able to choose ALL of their boosters at the start of the league...
if you guys think this is cool then i'll be posting the TRUE rules and have about 3 playtesters try it out wiht me :)
thanks guys hope to hear from ya! (esp. you Don lol)
