Nearly forgot to post the results of the draft which took place just a few hours ago! Almost everyone should have been added to their team's discord channel already. There are a few of you that still need to get on the FML discord. We will send you a PM shortly.
Since we had a blazingly fast draft (must be the benefit of having very active captains!), we are already set to move onto the next phase one day ahead of schedule. Now begins the player assignments / scheduling phase!
Captains must submit their player assignments to either Pinballmap or myself by Saturday 18 EST / 24 CET, as games begin on Sunday!
Scheduling rules/details There will be 3 weeks of 4-way matches, followed by a 2v2v2v2 round. For the first 3 weeks, there will be 8 matches per week (subject to change). All the rules below apply to the first 3 weeks only:
- Scheduling will happen on a weekly basis. Only one week's matches will be announced at a time - Teams will discuss together to decide which player is assigned to each game - A team assigns only 1 player to each game - Within the 3 week period, a player must play at least 2 games, and at most 3 games (put simply: 2 min, 3 max) - There are no weekly limits, for example a player can play all 3 games in the first week and sit out the next 2 weeks if that's what the team agrees to.
Anonymous games - Each team will be provided a list of smurf names corresponding to each player (for example salamander_3452). Players are responsible for creating those accounts and joining their assigned match using those smurfs. Players will get a new smurf for every match. We will have w3arena admins verify the identity of players after each match to filter for cheating.
Substitutions - If for whatever reason a player from a team does not show up to a match, the team of the player has 3 options 1) They can substitute a player from their team into the match as long as they don't violate the 2 min, 3 max rule. This means if a player has 2 games played and a 3rd one scheduled, and he is chosen as a substitute for an earlier game, then that means the game he subbed now counts as his 3rd game and he cannot play his previously scheduled 3rd game. 2) That team forfeits the match and a neutral substitute plays instead (someone not in the event) 3) Forfeit the match and Computer insane substitutes.

Thank you everyone for applying to our new event! We received 40 applications, which means we will have 4 teams of 10 players each. With many players signing up to be a captain, it was a tight race to choose the best candidates for the role. Congratulations to the following 4 players for being chosen as captains for Team Battle Royale:
Mog[Skynet] DV- Ponty zTsoso
Now that applications are finalized and captains have been selected, that brings us to the next phase, the draft phase. Captains will follow a snake-draft format for selecting their teams (ABCDDCBAABCD...). If possible, this may be a live draft and may even be streamed. If not, the draft will happen in private and teams will be announced late Friday EST, along with the schedule of matches for the first week of games. Things will move very quickly over the next few days so please check in with the site every day leading into the weekend.
When players are assigned to their teams, everyone will join their team's private discord channel. Because we are following KoFFA style scheduling (matches follow a fixed-schedule throughout the week), communication between team members will be essential for scheduling and assigning players to matches.
All of the logistical details out of the way, we are very excited for the upcoming event and we hope you all enjoy some of the interesting challenge modes that will be played, including random heroes, no chat, no-air units, banned heroes, and of course 2v2v2v2!
Cheers!
--------------------------------------- For captains reference, below is the full list of players available in the draft pool, ordered by country:
Welcome back! For those of you patiently waiting for the announcement of our next event, wait no longer! Before proceeding to our next big season, we are going to run an entirely new team-based event. FML Presents: Team Battle Royale!
What is Team Battle Royale? After the application period, four captains will be chosen, and those captains will each draft a team of players from the applicant pool. These teams will compete across various maps and challenges over the course of 3 rounds. The first round will be traditional 4-way FFAs, the second round will be random heroes and other challenge maps (to be revealed later), and the third round will be true team FFAs. All games will be anonymous. Teams gain points by winning matches, and the team with the most wins at the end of the event is victorious. Details on how scheduling will work will be provided later.
A word on captains Captains will be responsible for representing their team in a number of ways. Ideal captains are active in the community, able to evaluate the skill of potential teammates, and able to work with the players on their team in order to resolve disputes, schedule matches, and make team decisions. Captains must also be available to communicate with admins frequently. Admins will select captains based on these qualities. Aside from that, captains will play matches just like other team members.
Applications Anyone can apply as long as you have good availability over the next 2 months and you have an interest in the FFA game type. Additionally, you must have a Discord account and check it regularly for this event. You will not be able to schedule your games if you don't have Discord! (https://discordapp.com/ )(FML Channel Invite: https://discord.gg/SAHqSyj)
To find your Discord name+ID look at bottom left of your discord (example red #4613).
To apply, simply respond to this thread with the following information: - Discord name and id: - Country / Timezone: - Preferred races: - Want to be a captain?
