Sin, I'm available during the day, PST, tomorrow (Sunday) but got Halloween stuff to do at night. I'm free during the day on Monday (can start as late as 4pm PST). Tuesday I can do morning or late night but it's generally a bad day. Wednesday I'm free all day, Thursday as well.

Grazzak, I am free almost any time. I think I have Halloween stuff tomorrow night, but should be free most of the day before that. Anytime is good for me Monday also.

I have my niece this week so I'm restricted to nights in general. We pick her up tomorrow, but a time hasn't been set yet. What's the earliest you can start tomorrow Blarg?

Alternatively, are you going to be around tonight? I should be home around 8ish your time Smile

Monday we won't be able to mesh and "late night" PST sounds too late for me, but Thursday we'd definitely be able to meet up at 7 PM PST. Wednesday Barab is going to be in Orlando so I'm going out to meet him, but I could probably catch a match when I get home, around 8:30-9 PST

This will be pretty much the only week all season I'm going to be busy like this, heh.

I could do as early as 10am PST tomorrow. I suppose I could do 3am PST or 4am PST, as I'll get home around 2:30am. I usually go to sleep around 6am anyway.

Wednesday at 8:30-9 would be fine, as would anything Thursday.

Tragedy strikes!

Cemetary Rockstars, fielding an impressive 6 vampire lineup, faced up against the PTBBL Reanimated Undead. In addition to being tossed around like little girls the entire match, Steven Tyler, vampire #6 was torn to pieces beyond any hope of regeneration.

Alas, the 6 vampire lineup was not meant to be, and Clomp! Fast legendary season already has its first death!

I also set you all as co-commissioners, so you can validate your own matches when they're done.

Proactive scheduling for week 2: Blarg, we're up again, say Thursday at 8 PM PST?

Reng · Joined: 13 Aug 2009 Posts: 450

That is a weird schedule. To sets of back to backs. Like hockey home and home games.

Sinnyil · Joined: 19 Mar 2010 Posts: 204

Yeah, I like that aspect personally Smile

. Plus it gives Blarg a chance for vengeance right away!

I told him multiple times that he was insane. 2 rerolls. 6 Vamps. He would have had a much rougher time if he hadn't gotten 4 rerolls over the course of the game from Kickoff events.

Absolutely nutty Very Happy

Thursday at 8pm sounds good to me. Razz

In preparation for these leagues, I played a lot of games in public, with several different starting rosters for vampires. 6 vampires is by far the most fun. Hypnotic Gaze is one of those skills that works even better in mass, you can do a lot of really cool stuff with a bunch of vamps on the pitch at once. There's no cage i can't break into. Razz

But yes, it also makes the teams performance incredibly random. When they roll well on bloodlust, they are awesome. Not so much when they don't. Razz

This particular match was on the extreme side of bad luck with bloodlust, as I got down to only two thralls by the third round. In my public practice, they didn't usually run out that fast, more stuns and less badly injured.

I did however, for the main Clomp! league, go with only 4 vamps. Couldn't bring myself to do less than that.

Coach Reng returned to the side line sporting a fancy new official Nurgle team.

Coach Grazzak was to be the first victim. During the first turn Coach Rengs rotter took out a flesh golem. The first half was all Nurgle's blessed. They marched down the field like they actually had an idea of what they where doing. Scoring a td.

The second half the Necrotic Neurotics received the ball and Nurgle's little plague bearers blocked the advance of the dead. A werewolf broke free and made a dash for the endzone. With the goal line within site the overgrown dog did not see the hit that came from a pestigor and was knocked out of bounds. The ball was then thrown onto the field and landed on the goal line. Nurgle's unchosen took a breather and underestimated the drive of the Necrotic upstarts. A wright managed to dodge out of certain doom and turned on the juice to extend his mad dash. The putrid Membranes made a dash of there own to stop this wright. Two rotters ran up next to it and the pestigor blitzed only to be knocked down by the wright. The wirght then dodged yet again and picked the ball up for an easy score.

Them dead are very nimble to be nothing but bones. They will not be so lucky next time.

Final score: 1-1

Was a fun game.
