National BZflag League(NBL)

yea another league =P

very experimental ...
just an idea to see if anyone would be interested .

okay here it is :

1. - the tournament is for USA peeps only .
2. - it uses a graphic-territorial ladder , a block chart , and a point system .
3. - uses the positive-point system too . but points represent economic points(buying power).
4. - blocks and points are awarded to match winners . 1 block for each win . this translates to 10% of the state territory , which is represented accordingly on the geographic chart . losing state forfeits 1 block(which means 10% any held territory) to winning state . it must be agreed on before the match which territories are being played for , otherwise the winner choses . in the event of a tie , no territory will be exchanged .
5. - blocks(territory) and points can be traded , like commodities . as long as both parties agree to the terms .
6. - points can be used to aquire neutral state territory . 10points = 10% of a neutral state . anyone can purchase this land , if it hasn't already been claimed by another state . you can buy or fight your way to dominating the map .
neutral states are states that are not participating in the tournament .
7. - point scale for matches(battles) as follows :
3 pts. for winner , 2 points for tie , 1 point for loser
8. - state teams can wager for additional points or territory before a match . both teams must agree . and you cannot bet more than you have .
9.- if a state loses all its core territories , it will start to lose its points . once all the points in the states' bank is exhausted , it will then start losing territory in it's adjacent neutral states . a state team must regain these satellite territories before it can win back any of its' core territories .
10. - only the first ten teams will be entered in the tourny , with the possible addition of 2 alternate teams . only 1 team per state , with a minimum of 2 players per team ; however , there is no maximum team size limit .

that's it . ten simple rules . heh .
i was thinking about doing a conventional tornament ladder , with a sort of SuperBowl finale ..but i thought it might be cool to try something new ;)

yes/no/maybe?

hehe, wow did you come up with this yourself? that sounds really freaking cool! probabally one of the best ideas i have ever heard! lets use it for iLeague, like a tournament, and everytime the map is filled up we crown a champ, and then we reset it and do it again.

but i take it you probabally don't want to use it in iLeague...

sounds a lot like RISK though, you should name it BZRISK or RISK League

We haven't talked to Rc Cola about it, or I would be more Gungo-ho about it. Yo RC you can reach me at kalen0matic@yahoo.com, or kalen0matic Y!M lets talk about this alot...

You'll have to change the name because most people will think its for everyone, Thats why my UK team is the UKBZ league so that people know its just for UK people. I suggest the US league.

This actually sounds like a pretty cool idea. California would like grey, please - our grey goo will spread all over the map (if you don't get it, look at the wikipedia entry).
