Agree with the above, it's feels completely alternative to the other 2 leagues which have tended to be quite similar apart from the format of each match. Feels original and is a nice easy style for those getting into clans and is more competitive without losing the edge of the best teams will rise to the top, which gives it value.

please maybe look at a killer competion please


I have an idea for a knock out Killer Cup which may or may not work - however running four different competitions could be exceeding my welcome amongst clan members!!

Yeahhh, I'm not too sure about killer either. There's already a question whether it's too much effort and worth it to organize for the FBL...

It certainly would only ever be a stand alone competition.

The plan would be to have a set time for a game that I give in advance to both teams. At that time I establish who is on from each of the two teams and is able and willing to play. I then set the game up (as soon as the game is in play I leave!!)

Teams can have anything up to seven players playing - ie games can be anything from 7 v 7 to 7 v 1 to 1 v 1. As soon as your opponents have been 'killed' your team advances to the next round.

wouldn't it be easier for clans to arrange a time? failing that in our league have a set time on deadline night whoever is online may play, only thing is it takes a while to check each profile so that would be a disadvantage for a popular member who has a near full friends list for those who is nearly empty its quick and easy to check.

if only we could have jans activity tracker

Having watched and previously played the FBL for the last two seasons I dont think so although I may be wrong.

Doing it this way everyone knows in advance of when a game is so it's up to a team to rally their troops if interested. It also would give me first hand knowledge of why any game wasn't played if a decision was required. Thirdly it allows for a 1 v 1 game as a last resort too.

Any Cup competition would consist of no more games than the number of teams taking part minus one so consequently there would not be many games to arrange over the course of a 10 week season.

can't do 1 vs 1 in killer unless you play US8 which if you pot black illegally you would lose under normal circumstances.

reason i asked is that nights is best for most clans (we usually do each night around 10 pm) so if the game is set during the day it may be a disadvantage.

If FBL is doing a killer cup im not sure if Super League needs one

True indeed - something that would need deciding.

could you explain how? it baffles me because you need 3 players to start a game of killer, sounds interesting though.

sorry, sometimes my understanding is off a bit

Round 2 Play-Off Games

I would like to make it a one week deadline for these games in order to keep the schedule in line with other leagues. That would make it Christmas Eve to New Years Eve. I realise its not the best time of year for many but do the teams involved have any strong feelings over it, and over managing to get five games played in a week? If so it could be extended further.

Teams involved are Snooker Squad, Team Angry, Mouseketeers and Fighting Eagles/Ninja Warriors.

shouldn't be an issue i don't think, although if its Eagles i have little hope lol.

For future i think each clan league should accommodate important events such as Christmas with either an extra week onto the deadline or a week break as then those who want to spend time with family can, personally i feel playing through Christmas is not a good idea.

Usually do, just usually christmas doesn't fall halfway through the very last fixture. maybe a week extra on the deadlines instead of a break would be best.

As for the play off's, maybe a week deadline with an extension possible if not enough are played?

Yep nobody has said 'no' so far so it will more than likely be a New Years Day deadline but with the potential to be reviewed. Fortunately only 10 games to be played in total.

Super League III - The Semi-Finals

The following four teams are through to the Semi-Finals...

The Sinners (Highest Ranked Round 1 Winner)
Uprising (Lowest Ranked Round 1 Winner)
Team Angry (Round 2 Winner)
Snooker Squad (Round 2 Winner plus twice defending champions!!)

As Highest Ranked Round 1 Winner The Sinners have 'Game Call'.

This means they can choose their Semi-Final opponents from the Round 2 Winners.

Please can I have teams of five for these Semi-Final games and also from The Sinners their choice of opponents.

I will announce the outcome of 'Game Call' asap in case any team wishes to know their opponents before submitting their team of five players.
