Football? Pft! Let's play FUBA instead.

[Alice Lune]

FUBA stands for Federation of Unarmed Basketball Association

 

It is not a league. It is a sudden death game where the medium is Basketball. Now you're wondering how you can take part in this glorious game? Simply submit the following into the thread and send my nation a message in Orbis (not forum), since I'm expecting a lot of unrelated spams in this thread.

 

When sending a message, please write the title as: FUBA entry

In the content, please state the name of your nation's team and the link to the post you made.

Don't send me your team stats. Post them here.

 

Now without further ado, please submit your nation team's stats here:

Dribbling: Determines how good your players are at dribbling (carrying the ball). Low amount will reduce overall player effectiveness.

Shooting: Determines how good your players are at scoring. Higher numbers may see more 3-point scoring.

Rebounding: Determines how good your players are at taking rebounds. Helps in scoring or denying enemy scoring.

Stamina: Determines how long it takes for your players to lose effectiveness

Teamwork: Determines how good your players are at playing as a team

Morale: Increases the overall effectiveness of the team

Registration

 

Registration lasts until 10AM January 11th, 1992. For now, participation is only open for the first 16 participants. If there is enough participation by the end of the registration, it may be increased to 32 participants, so just keep registering. Participants may freely change their nation's stats until the registration ends. Afterwards, any changes must be mailed directly to my nation inbox (not forum) and from the time between the end of registration and the tournament, participants may only change 3 of the Training Allocation stats. Once registration ends, no budget changes are allowed.

 

Winner will receive $50,000 at the conclusion of the tournament. All the best to all participants.

 

Of course, to make things fair, Elicis will not be joining the games

Not to nitpick, MrBooty, but you sure you want to enter the tournament with only 19 points allocated?

[James Gordon]

Ha, I read FUBAR at first. It's probably because I recently re-watched Saving Private Ryan.

Commentary by Alice Lune:
Both sides are fairly well matched. There's been a lot of dispossession, missed throws and miscommunication on both sides. But all in all, it has been a good game.

Will there be advancement of skills as season(s) go on?

[Alice Lune]

Will there be advancement of skills as season(s) go on?

Yes. Participating in friendlies give the teams +1 Training Allocation, to be allocated to any Skills that the manager wishes. Thus why each team may challenge another team only once. And a limit of 4 challenges can be accepted from other teams.

 

For example:

Team A can only challenge another team once. Team A then chooses to challenge Team B

However, Team A can still accept challenges from from Team B, C, D and E.

 

Team B has already been challenged by Team A, so they can only accept 3 other challenges from other teams.

Team B can still challenge Team A, but will not be able to challenge another team if they do so

 

 

 

The allocation of points is equal to both the winning and losing side. Both sides gets +1 skill points to be added to the original Skill Allocation (NOT budget). Therefore, it is in your own best interest to play in as many friendlies as the quota allows. The skill bonus for winning tournament matches is a little different and will be explained later.

 

Because of the recent friendly, both The Cataphracts and The Fudge Packers gain +1 skill allocation, please  make a note to your original stats posts, otherwise I will probably miss out some of your bonuses.

Example, The Crazy Nuns has played in 3 friendlies.
