FML has always run into a problem of having too many players and not enough slots. It is part of what makes getting into the league, let alone winning, such an impressive task. The downside of this though is that we have a ton of great talent who we are forced to turn away, and with the exception of a few side events there isn't a whole lot that people can do with FML except wait for the next seasons applications to open.

I'm hoping that we can change that. Assuming, and this is a big assumption, that there are enough people interested then I plan to start the FML Farm Leagues. Now some of you who are American or follow baseball may be thinking this sounds familiar, did Mage rip them off? Yes, yes I did! However the goals of this would be very similar to the goals of baseball's farm leagues.

They will promote new talent. We have a ton of people interested in FFA who have never really played competitive 4-way FFA before. It's hard to get good at something when you are only able to play about 4 qualifier games every year. Instead, players will be able to adjust to how FML is played in the "farm leagues" and perhaps be more prepared for the next qualifiers. In addition this league will be run virtually identically to FML. This will allow players to practice scheduling their own matches, being responsive on the site, and being responsible for showing up to matches.

FML Farm League will not have prizes or glory the way FML does. Instead it will be for players who really want to play and grow. Just as it will be run in the same way FML is, the punishments will apply for all FML leagues and events. If you're banned here you're banned everywhere. Fail to show twice, you won't be eligible for the Season 19 qualifiers. This will not be some joke where people go to play games because they're bored and have nothing else to do, it is for FFA players to learn, grow, have fun, and partake in a league!

Now, in order for this to happen we will need a minimum of 12 players interested, with no cap on the maximum. If you already applied for Season 18 and posted your application in that thread you can just say you're interested. If you are interested then apply by posting the following application filled out:
