Sarah i have done that already . That is why the FCL starts a week before the FBL.

If teams do not have to play in the league killer then why is there a default panel. Already been said we would not lose points. Finding this one thing hard to understand.

thats why a separate league is best then you can CHOOSE if you want to play and can lets say give 8 names or something in a 3 x 3 battle.

League your forced to play, separate your not

But whats the difference in any league?

In FCL you are forced to play 15 racks
In FBL you were already forced to play Straight
In Super League you are forced to play 5-a-side

If you, as a clan member, dont want to play then dont, similarly if you dont want to play as a clan in any one league then dont.

FBL killer is mandatory in the league format this season and will be subject to defaults as would any unplayed games in a league format

although we are also having a seprate killer league that is optional,, i will post each clan in due course, if you want a team or 2 in nps if you dont thats also fine

i have had interest in this from 7 teams so it will go ahead. but there is no pressure on any teams or clans to participate in this... hope that answers your question

if any clan wants to put a team in feel free to offline message me

why has the killer in the league been changed from being optional to mandatory?

Can we make the 8UK games in FCL optional too please?

wrong thread seb

lol no- it was in response to the suggestions that killer should be optional. It wasn't serious.

was optional till ppl wanted to play
now itsa mandatory element

What about the people and teams that are not wanting it then?

MVP players don't like it with a few other clan team feeling the same way and some of their players. Why should a team lose points on it if they didn't want to play it in the first place. Im more than happy to play the games for MVP though but many dont want to play in it.

The general response from the killer trial has been hugely popular from the majority of players, there will always be some people that dont like aspects of each league . killer is part of the FBL for next season, that will not be changing , if players dont like it , and dont like working as team, then dont play it ,but i am sure out of 16 players there will be at least 2 that will play it , and work together, and actually enjoy it .

and to answer it jay

there is always option 2

pull your team out

I thought the trial was during the season not these games we had prior to it ?

i will not be taking part in the killer for my clan as i think it should have been seperately scored from the standard league, i dislike the idea that clans are now having this forced on them.

i preferred it when it was optional and clans were not being penalised for not playing the matches, yes there have been positive comments but people have had time as we were pre FCL/FBL/FSL season. it should have remained optional to see how it was managed in the league alongside 2 other leagues.

in my opinion, with 3 standard league formats, 2 cups and 1 individual league, i think killer will be regarded the least important of all games and will cause the most defaults.

Isn't individual league more unimportant as really it has nothing to do with clans is just like any old league were as FBL is an important league and this is just a new aspect? Or am I missing the point?

i take it this your personal oppinion
and not that of vipers

beth submitted the team list already..

the FBL format is
2 x 8ball
2 x 9 ball
2 x uk
2 x straight
2 x 2 man killer

however if your not playing killer its not for league discussion really its one you should be having with your captain to include you.

for your comments on what you prefer, that is upto you, maybe make a thread on your likes and dislikes, and whether killer in the FBL is the least important is your oppinion

as above is the new formatt

i think ppl are getting a little confused with an opption killer league nothing to do with the standard FBL formatt which is shown above

pixie thinks this seperate league is unimportant but we already have 7 teams in it this is purely opptional
teams can enter or not
as ive repeated many times

I was a little late on the discussion from a day or two ago as i was travelling, but i agree with Lee 100%.

Also why accept a team list from Beth? She is not a captain or a vice, while i am.

bl3ss3d - So basically from what you just posted no other league is important only the FBL is the important league. Thats all i really got from your post sorry.

No Pixie I pointed out that the individual league really didnt relate to being in clan other leagues are all very important

pixie why are you causing friction

top and bottom of it you dont like killer thats fine
you opted to mention fbl fcl and super league

im sorry thts your oppinion maybe to be had on a seperate forum

I made the decision to accept the teamlist from beth, as despite a reminder a teamlist was not submitted from vipers, beth however made the effort to send one before the deadline , which i accepted as there were no captains online , but was explained that it would need to be authorised by a captain.
