Genius!!!!
Suddenly the evil grin on your profile pic makes sense....

Not only does this sound awesome, its possibly even easier to set up than you describe.
Since teams will be un-readied before Saturday, then any old league team can potentially be used!
I'd be tempted to join... reckon you could run a SMACK-style tournament in about half an hour :-D (though it would be very very dependent on what staff member you were given!)

This way would allow for the old 1 vs 1 or 4 vs 4 and so on. Are we allowed to play like that in league the other days as well?

Oh haha good idea! :D There can be only one!
Posted by Roland on 2014-03-20 16:30:06
aha! Like BGA but with staff!
I'm in!

If all teams will be unreadied, than we don't need to play a match with a new team beforehand, right?
This is a fantastic idea by the way.

Yeah, I believe they don't even need that prep match! Good point!
I'll edit the blog accordingly.

Also thanks for the compliments. :-)
Not sure I'll take part in it, I just wanted to throw out the idea. And I certainly won't do any administrative stuff concerning this, as my time is so limited, I shouldn't even play at all (but of course I will, preferably the Monsters).

Genius idea Rabe, count me in :D

I´m in as well. I still have two old 1 vs 1 teams, so I only have to retire one player and some rerolls probably.
Posted by TenaciousPiggy on 2014-03-20 20:47:40
^On rerolls, are they allowed for a 1v1?
Posted by keggiemckill on 2014-03-21 00:49:57
No RRs. There Can Only Be One. It's a fantastic Idea. Given more time there could be a Tournament set up for it. Similar to a Major Tourney. I would join if this was set up.

Well, I suggest someone stars a forum thread on it. Could be used for finding games by those who don't use IRC as well.
A group page could be handy to see which teams are out there (and to set up a spontaneous tournament).
Personally I wouldn't set any rules, for it makes things complicated and takes the fun out of it (in case of this one-time and short event). But coaches can always negotiate how to play ahead of a match. It's nothing serious, but a celebration of site and staff - don't forget that. :-)
