Ladies, Gentlemen, Mutants and Unspeakable Horrors from the Chaos Wastes! Roll Up Roll Up for the Orcidas Challenge Rushing Cup!

Careful study by a team of expert goblins has determined the following statistical analysis on the teams in the RT BBL.

The Qualifiers for the Orcidas Challenge Rushing Cup are:

The Mighty Undercheesers - 672 Yards
The Cangurus - 630 Yards
The Everglade Wanderers - 582 Yards
Fables! - 554 Yards
The Pinewood Carrions - 500 Yards
Stagocalypse - 462 Yards
The Orkly Ducklingz - 386 Yards
Eballa - 358 Yards

Narrowly missing out are:

The Tomb Army - 346 Yards
The Brewers Brawlers - 296 Yards

The Orcidas Challenge Rushing Cup will be a standard seeded cup based on the results above.

Week 1 Games

The Mighty Undercheesers vs Eballa
The Cangurus vs The Orkly Ducklingz
The Everglade Wanderers vs Stagocalypse
Fables! vs The Pinewood Carrions

The Tomb Army Will play The Brewers Brawlers in an exhibition match.

Admin - For this to work I need to create a new league in Blood BOwl which I will get done tonight. Those teams playing in the cup will need to join it and then I'll seed them and set it running. Details will go up as soon as possible.

For BBM I'll create a new league to take the cup results and games can/should also be submitted to the RT BBL overall league for grand statistical fun.

My awesome brain misread the list and decided I was playing the Carrions (who inflicted the Wood Elves' biggest defeat of the season). Glad to see I was wrong and am playing the Norse instead (no offence). Hopefully the dice will be more even and it will be less of a one-sided affair than our league matchup.

This assumes that the top 8 are all happy to play in the cup. I think that is true, with only the Undercheesers suggesting they would sit out, unless they won the league.

Unlucky to the Tomb Army, who nearly sneaked in there.

Don't worry, La let me know that he's going for the double.

Personally I'm in two minds about this line up - Fables! gave me a kicking last time out and if I beat them then I'll be up against the Undercheesers most likely. I don't like them odds

Urg! Nurgle!

I'm not pleased at the idea of playing any of the other teams, really, but I am pretty pleased to be getting going again.


edit: also - yeah! eat my rush!

Looks like the Cup will be very short for my team heh :-)

The Fables will be giving the Carrions as good a stomping as they can, especially after their coach suggested they were a "touring musical"!

You have a better explanation for the exclamation mark?

I have created the RTBBL Orcidas Challenge Cup in BB - join up as and when people

The team name Fables was already taken

I have applied.

I have too.

Excellent. I'll approve that this evening. I've made Gandalf (or someone with a similar name ) an admin too so he may beat me to it.

I've applied - don't know if you have made me admin or not but it says you need to accept my application.
