I'm confused.... :-(

[Podfrey]

With everything else being spread around, and the Eurobowl only 11 weeks away, I thought I'd summarise what I think is going on, and hope one of the French organisers can confirm:

- Goblin, Halfling and Ogres get full inducement access and 1.3 million gc
- only the team captain needs to be national, the rest can be freebooters
- the draw is Swiss for countries, then the random/blind/etc
- it is not NAF ranked this year (even though the last 5/6 have been)

Mama Mia. That's a lot of changes And that doesn't include the 'definte' changes such as 3 skills day 1, then 2+1 double on day 2. I hoped that this would all have been confirmed well before now ........

Hi guys, I'm just having a short breack during vacations.

Consider that all this proposed changes have been tested before being proposed.
For example we used the 130 k rules for stunties in many TV110 french tourneys and it works ery well without unbalancing the matches (no stunties have ever win a french tourney, just made an average ranking). The result is that weak players have more fun and sometimes make a "surpise" to powergamers.
In fact we used TV 110 for woodelves, dwarves, chaos dwarves, undead, amazons, norses, skavens,
Tv 130 for stunties like we proposed
Tv 120 for all the others

I count on 10 captains of this edition to choose or not to applicate them during tournament. I agree with Geoff, there is few time left and I count on admin to help us to decide quickly about the rules.

I just send a PM to Dave to create a vote section reserved to 10 captains where they could vote about this changes.
If you know another avaiable admin, please connect me with him to find a quicker solution.

I'm just waiting an answer from admin.

So The final ruleset will be decided by a vote of captains, not by us. We are just here to propose new ideas to renew and improve the tournament.

don't think the board can limit a vote to just those 10 ppl, you are better off just getting them to post yes or no in a thread

[daz]

Ok thanks for the information Grumbledook
So polls will stand on TFF forum.
Polls start today and end august 31 .

They can, they make a new forum and only allow the 10 captains in

So why not do it like this? And why are stars and inducements only allowed to stunties?

For those who don't speak french it would be allot easier to do this voting here?

I have texted Thads to get it set up Daz if that's okay

Seen in the 'Team Wales 2010 Eurobowl' thread:

I confim you thre is not a minimum of "nationals". Only the captain has to be

Are you sure you want to go there??

It is true that the hosting country can set the playing rules they want but I don't think you can change that rule. And just fixing that only the captain has to be from the country... I wish a Swedish coach with 7 freebooters pro-players won the tournament to see who will organize the following Eurobowl in Sweden. I don't understand this strange wish of changing something that everybody loved. This doesn't seem the Eurobowl anymore

Would you mind asking all the captains if they agree with this new rule of only the captain being from the nation they'll represent? And also asking them their opinion about hosting a parallel tournament? I would be very interested in knowing their opinions as well as regarding to the new pairing rule and the boost for stunty teams. And I also think they should have the right to vote all those decisions (I know they already have for the pairing and the stunty boost, no idea about the others).
