Well, basically the matches are decided by the use of dice. I set up bonuses to be applied to these dice according to which position you have your key player (you) in and what type of key player you face. Meaning that if you lose 1-6, you'll lose. But if you draw 4-4 but have a 30% bonus, you will in reality get 5.2 and win the match.

I throw the dice and I don't cheat, believe it or not. This year I even have a webcam so I can send the whole thing live of you want.

Ahkay... I'll need a team name, and which position the captain is to play in. I have room for 16 teams, first come etc. Any teams beyond that, and they'll have to play qualification rounds first.

The rules and position bonuses can be read here.

So far we have:
winterfate (team name and position, please)
Kalah (Great Summoners, GK)
Corribus (team name and position, please)
Omega_Destroyer (team name and position, please)

(was that a yes, Vlad?)

Prizes: To be decided. Awarded to 1st, 2nd & 3rd placed teams.

Prizes: Amazon.com/Amazon.co.uk (yes, it has to be one of those two, sorry) gift certificates for the winners and runners-up. For the 3rd place, I'll toss in my old 2x512mb RAM chips if they're wanted.

How's that for incentive, guys? ;)

The Bumbling Bunnies are back, and hoping to do a little damage this time, and a slight change is in order, with captain relinquishing his duties as a forward to move slightly more defense minded .... going to a central midfielder role ....
