<big><b>BB7s are up and running again!</b></big>

<hr color="white">
<i>Many pro BB leagues exist throughout the old world and beyond. In the cutthroat world of BB, not all players start off with a Pro team. The majority of players play in the 7's League. BB7's teams tend to be highly disorganized! There are players with individual talent, but teamwork on the whole is somewhat lacking! To promote the interest of this sport, and an attempt to get more players involved, Cabalvision have hereby started a 7's league. In time, it is hoped a team can arise and become legendary, like the Lizardmen team from the southern islands of Fridgi! However, it is inevitable in this environment that a talented player will emerge, and scouts from big name teams like the Reavers, Gouged Eye, and Darkside Cowboys are watching the progress here. Don't be surprised if a player or two gets scouted for a better offer from a professional BB team!</i>
<div align="left">

<hr color="white">
<h3>Team Creation</h3>
<b>1. Create a new team in the "League" division.</b>
a. Teams have to be new to be accepted into BB7s (see "Group Rules" section above).
b. All 24 races are available. Some tournaments might have restrictions on teams per race, but in open play it doesn't matter.

<b>2. Buy seven players that will form you future team. The number of positionals and big guys is restricted.</b>
a. All positional limits are halved, rounded up (so all Chaos Pact renegades and the goblins' secret weapons are allowed). Base players (players with a limit of 0-12 or 0-16) are not considered positionals.
b. Big Guys are not allowed. All players starting with a strength of 5+ and a negatrait other than Decay (Bone Head, Really Stupid, Wild Animal, Take Roots) are considered Big Guys.
c. Halfling, Goblin, Ogre, Chaos Pact and Underworld teams are allowed all or some of their Big Guys. See "BB7s Team Rosters" section below.
d. Make sure the seven active team members follow the FUMBBL rules on player names. These rules are shown to you each time you submit a new team for approval.

<b>3. Buy <u>exactly</u> four more base players named in a completely different way than the rest of the team. Those guys may not be used actively and are determined to be retired after the first match.</b>
<i>Since teams start in "ready to play" mode after creation, they cannot get down to seven players before the first match.</i>
a. Don't use any other but base players! Base players are players with a limit of 0-12 or 0-16.
b. The four chosen players have to be retired after the first match, even if one of your seven active team members dies/gets beaten into retirement or one of the four spare guys earns the MVP award!
c. Names should be chosen in a way that staff members can easily tell the spare guys apart from the rest of the team. If it's not possible, acceptance into the group may be delayed or denied (getting rid of them before applying the team of course prevents this from happening, too).

<b>4. Buy fan factor and staff after your liking.</b>
a. Staff: Assistant Coaches, Cheerleaders, Apothecary.
b. Team re-rolls are not allowed (see "Group Rules" section above).

<b>5. Submit your team for approval.</b>

<b>6. Put the BB7s logo into your team's biography.</b>
a. Use the following code, if you like:
&lt;a href="http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=group&op=view&group=3433"&gt;&lt;img src="https://fumbbl.com/i/346633"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

<b>7. Apply your team to the <a href="https://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=group&op=view&group=3433&p=members">BB7s main group</a>.</b>

<b>8. Play a first match. This can be a regular (friendly) match or a concession against a dummy team.</b>
a. If you play a regular match, make sure you don't grant your opponent the advantage of inducement money for the spare guys. We recommend you and your opponent either agree on playing without inducements or subtract the spare guys' TV from the team TV.
b. If you play a regular match, your designated spare guys have to be placed at both ends of your end zone and may not take any action other than getting rid of an accidentally caught ball and moving out of the way on your opponent's request (see rules on extra players in the "Group Rules" section above).
c. If you play against a dummy team, make sure it's a legal one: The name has to be [coachname's Dummy 7s Team] (including the brackets) and it must follow the rules stated in the "Dummy Teams" section below. In case of doubts, please <a href="https://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=messages&op=new&to=Rabe,%20captainmalkor,%20ahalfling,%20FreeRange,%20bghandras,%20blader4411&subject=BB7s: Doubtful dummy team&message=Dear BB7s staff, the following dummy team seems weird:">contact the BB7s staff</a>.
d. If you play against a dummy team, make sure neither you nor your opponent does take any action besides you ending the game by conceding (this is an exception to the "Concessions are strictly forbidden" rule from the "Group Rule" section above and is only allowed in a team's first match and against a dummy team). Note: A coach can concede in his first turn even before setting up his players!
e. You don't necessarily have to wait for approval to get started with your first match, but making approval easier by applying a team with zero game is a courtesy towards the staff (since group managers don't have to check if past games were all legal).

<b>9. Retire your designated spare guys.</b>

<b>10. Make sure you don't accidentally hire journeymen.</b>
a. Illegally hired journeymen have to be treated like the spare guys on a newly created team, but DO contribute their to your team's TV. See also "Group Rules" section above.
b. Illegally hired journeymen do NOT allow you to play (concede) against a dummy team to enter post match sequence again.

<b>11. A team that breaks one or more of the rules above may not be accepted into/stay in the BB7s group!</b>

<h3>Finding Games</h3>
Log onto the BB7s channel in IRC chat to find friendly pick up games, advice, etc.

<hr color="white">
<h3>Bounties</h3>
<big>Coming soon!</big>

...but you should definitely keep track of players you killed or forced into retirement if they had earned SPP before the transition to CRP...


<hr color="white">
<h3>Dummy Teams</h3>
1) Any BB7s coach may create one dummy team to help others cutting their freshly created teams down to the legal number of players. Since concessions are usually forbidden in BB7s (rule no. 7 in the "Group Rules" section above), please make sure you understand what a dummy team is allowed to do and how it has to be done!

2) All rules from the "Group Rules" and "Team Creation" sections apply except for the following:

3) Dummy teams have to be named [coachname's Dummy 7s Team], including the brackets (<a href="http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=team&op=view&team_id=669361">example</a>).

4) Dummy teams may play no games but "dummy games" as outlined in the "Team Creation" section, step 8 (the opposing coach has to concede on his first turn). The result always has to be a win by concession with no actions taken by both teams.

5) Players on dummy teams never get drafted.

6) Dummy teams have to apply to main group.

7) Dummy teams should only be accepted by the staff members in charge (currently: <a href="http://fumbbl.com/~Rabe">Rabe</a> + ?).


<hr color="white">
<h3>Grandfathering</h3>

If and as long as you have at least one player on your team who has earned SPP before the [L]eague division's migration to CRP, that team may enter and stay in the

<b><a href="https://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=group&op=view&group=7590">BB7s Grandfathers Group</a></b>.

If your team features any player with more than 3 MVP awards (and therefore subject to the drafting rules) or two Norse Berserkers or more than four Ogres and you don't want to retire them immediately, you <u>must</u> join and stay with the group to get them accepted (and thereby a legal BB7s team) into the main group.

The benefit: All MVP awards earned before the [L]eague division's migration to CRP do not count towards the drafting rules as long as a team is member of this group.

The drawback: Grandfathered teams will have their own division that they have to attend to in all tournaments and leagues, so they will not meet any other teams but grandfathered ones in competitive play. However, they are allowed to play friendly matches against whoever you like!

A team is free to leave the group and join regular tournament divisions as soon as it's in line with the rules stated in the "Group Rules" and "Team Creation" sections above.

For further information and instructions, please visit the <a href="https://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=group&op=view&group=7590">BB7s Grandfathers Group</a> or <a href="https://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=messages&op=new&to=captainmalkor,%20ahalfling,%20FreeRange,%20Rabe,%20bghandras,%20blader4411&subject=BB7s:">contact the group staff</a>.
