Just like to say anything i say here is my personnal veiws which like it or not i am entitled to.
Ok i will start with X ball. I have never played this format so could not comment on how fun it is to play but do enjoy watching some games when i might have an interest in the teams playing.
However i believe that the way the teams were selected was incorrect and we should have follwed the US model of teams (sponsors) buying franchises as this would ensure all of the teams in the league have a vested interest. This would of also produced a source of income to help cover the initial setup costs of the league. The teams should also be locked into just playing x ball like in the states also, with maybe the exception of divisional xball in the states.
Scrap the premier league format and play standard 7 man for a year and whatever is finalised on next year. This way EXL can be played at all 9 millennium events and make a league out of it like in the states so teams have to attend every event.
As for standard 7 man play with the four divisions and announce the prize packages before events, the nppl manage it so it cant be that hard, so there is a good incentive to to enter higher divisions this year and then play well to get promoted. If you take time to work out the income from all the millenniums sources players, players cards, refresments, PAINT SPONSORS, other sponsors, trade stands and others it soon becomes apparent keeping the prize packages secret until after you have won whatever it is you got is sh1t.
As for the venues i think the millenium uses some great venues prob germany being my favorite however i do not pay a lot of my hard earned cash to spend my time in pain because i tripped over another sandbag or burnt myself on astro.
Feel free to add any other thoughts you may have
