Because of the limited paint format we need fields that encourage movement not a paint slinging match, this means tall bunkers in the middle and lots of them! But don't forget a couple of big, upright coke cans at the back for us fat old lardy boys:D

Centre flag is the best format to encourage aggressive play.

The Hyperball field is fun at Nottingham but I think its too big for ltd paint games.

Each team should play a minimum of 8 games (preferably 9/10), some teams have to travel a long way to get to these tourney's, teams won't travel if they only get to play 6/7 games.

Seeded divisions would be better because there are some teams playing that now have a lot more experience than when the series started whilst some are still relatively new.

The dancing girls also sound a good idea:D

See you all there.

Sorry Roland, I disagree with the seeding thing. Any team that is classified as a novice team (with no non-novice guests) should be treated equally. I take your point that some teams have seen a lot more ball this year than others, but we saw Spank whomp the first round, then Angels took Div B by suprise on the 2nd. They lost their crown to Freestyle in Round 3, this is not a walkover by 1 team. I say get everyone in a big group, let them fight it out for the number 1 spot this round.

EDIT : Looked at the games, and Quayler has quite rightly pointed out that 13 /14 teams in one div at this time of the year will probably be a non starter due to daylight. We are revising our ideas, stay tuned for more Epoch rants coming soon.

Just a note that the divs A and B shown above would be the final standings for these divs after everyone had played all their divisional games (all 6 of them) in case it wasn't clear to some.

And yes, i did't have anything better to do at work today:D

ps. I know I came up with the idea for one big league but after some calculations I worked it out to be 91 games if 14 teams turned up.... that would mean 7.5 games per hour and would take 6 hours to complete over 2 fields with 8min games and no breaks and not including a final...Not really possible with it getting dark around 4:30 me thinks!!!
