Dodgeball Championship?

[DaKillaRoach]

I was pondering upon the idea of a Dogeball championship, much like the league things we have going on with SBLBall, JWL, RRL, etc. etc.

 

Would anyone be interested in a team Dodgeball championship. Not sure who would run it and such like but rule wise I was thinking:

 

Two Teams of Four

No Subsitutes

Teams can be any size but only 4 at the start may be picked and they must play

No lagouts - will affect game play and poss reduce your chance of going out because of ball lag

Play it like the Soccer knockout system

 

8 or 16 teams going at it in a big dodgeball system or we could do a 6 week league.

 

Note: You would still be able to knock your team out by a bad ball (much like in real life dodgeball) so aim is extra essential

 

What you guys think?

No.

[DaKillaRoach]

Aww, so negative

 

Well only an idea, might as well see what others think. Dodgeball is getting bigger and bigger in 17th, the vets and newbs alike play it.

 

This idea seemed to create a buzz around some staffers.

Sounds fun! Sounds good!

Good idea, roach

 

Start by making a new arena and settings for that

You cant teamkill in real dodgeball thus u cant in subspace... dunno where u got that from.

[DaKillaRoach]

From what I understood, in SS, even if on your side if you caught the ball being thrown at someone, you are out.

 

I know a form of rules they are used around my area that follow along these lines. Usually happens by a bad throw(back)

If we are really going to organize this dodgeball league then I might as well redo the bot. The current one is old, gives all sort of errors during use and has some bugs in it as well

 

Features it should have:

- Enable / disable team "kills"

- Elimination time (time between ball shot and ball caught)

 

Any more ideas?

It isn't fun because it doesn't require much skill to be able to move about and either get hit or not get hit by the ball. And once you're out its kind of boring just sitting there waiting for the game to end. Basically what i'm saying is there isn't much to it.

[DaKillaRoach]

But its liked by alot of pubbers and quite a few vets.

 

It might bring back some compe!@#$%^&*ion and get people more interested; much like Bo17th is trying to do.

[SeVeR]

Well if alot of people like it then go ahead and make one. I won't be playing in it so you'll have to just play knowing i woulda won it and you'll always be 2nd best so hah.

Whatever floats your boat

You float my boat... Roachie!
