------------------------------ **NEWSFLASH** ----------------------------

ok, folks, the polls are closed, and Ace Windu is the 4th and final manager. his team is the Red Rhinos http://wiki.warlight.net/index.php/Red_Rhinos.

Thankyou for voting, please watch the forums for announcements on player hiring (ie the managers will soon be contracting players to their squads).

btw - our latest wiki is at http://wiki.warlight.net/index.php/Manager_League_Season_Beta - this will be subject to change, though the main points are likely to remain the same.

------------------------------ **NEWSFLASH** ----------------------------

The Contract Period is now open. For the next **36 hours**.

Post you agreed contracts on the MANAGER LEAGUE. Player Contract Thread.


This is of course ONLY the players who signed up, and are on the categorised list.

NOTE that those players who don't get contracted now, may yet be contracted after the first round (first set of games).
Also, players might get fired after the first set of games.

---------------------------- **NEWSFLASH** -----------------------------

The Contact Period is now (just about) closed for now, games will start soon. Managers are selecting their home maps+settings.

Games are multi-day games - players, please watch for the game invitations.

**Managers are currently selecting their teamsheets for Round 1**

Blue Buzzards vs Orange Orcas (home and away)
Pink Pandas vs Red Rhinos (home and away)

Players - please watch out for games starting soon - some boot times are set at 1.5 days, so please keep looking in.

Note that all games are light fog - so you can watch how your team's other game is going, and how the other 2 teams are doing.

We will post links to the games here, once they start.

One and a half day boots? We're not allowed to have a weekend?

JRM - we debated this, 3 days boot or 1.5 days - we want quick games, but we also want no boots. More compromises...

Any others want to weigh in on this?

Lol, when HHH makes fast rr tournaments with handpicked players and 2 day boot, there are always some casualties. 1,5 days seems insane especially considering it's a team game...

|> some boot times are set at 1.5 days, so please keep looking in.

DO . NOT . LIKE . AT . ALL

Can I make myself any clearer? I may withdraw from the League completely if this will be a standard setting.

Since this is a beta-round, if myhand/unknown think that a 3-day boot will take too long, I suggest a 2-day boot and then once the league is officially underway it should be a 3 day boot. 1.5 boot time is just WAY too short.

Ok folks, thanks for that response. Seems we ought to go for 3 boot then.

Hopefully, everyone will move fast most of the time - the 3 day setting is to avoid booting anyone during weekends etc.

My team are players after my own heart

I like my team.
Glad you've changed this. I promise to give the manager league games priority when taking my turns.
