MLL - Preseason Rules and General Trashtalkery Thread
 
Sorry for the delay, my peoples. When I got back from Iraq, my DSL was out. I managed to use my roommate's DSL for 2 days, but when the Qwest tech came out to install my DSL, not only did he not fix mine, but he broke my roommate's. I love irony. With the 'pity me' crap out of the way, let's do this thing.

Welcome to the Micro Limits League!

The Micro Limits League is a heads-up league in the style of college football. All players are free schedule their own games and determine their own path through the league. Your results are based on two things and two things only : how well you played and how tough your opponents were. There's no handicapping by ending up with a tough path through the bracket, and you'll never have to be concerned with getting your results in by a specified time. This is your league.

How it works - Visit the MLL thread for a given week, where you will find a list of all MLL members. If you'd like to challenge someone, the recommended way to set it up is to send them a PM on the subject and leave them plenty of ways to contact you. Or you can hammer it out through the PM. The time of the game is entirely up to you, the only thing required for the league is that you play a 25BB .02/.04 freezeout. That way no one's losing more than $1 at a time. At the completion of the game, it's customary for the loser to post in that week's thread saying who they lost to. If the loser forgets to post it within a few hours, the winner can post it. At that time, I'll plug your game into my incredibly complicated matrix, run it through many filters, translate it to French, and include it in the next week's wrap up.

It's so strange that I feel the need to be condescending and repeat it. I just want to make sure that everyone's on the same page here. If you sign up for the MLL and keep a sharp watch on your PMs or these threads to find out when your first game is, you're going to finish the season 0-0. The admins will put forth exactly zero effort to schedule games. You are responsible for your own scheduling. You are free to play as many or as few games as you want. We recommend 2 games per week. I will be playing rather frequently, both to get this thing going and because I enjoy it. You should, too.

What's Next - This week's thread is dedicated to last minute signups and letting other people know how you're going to dominate this league. You can also use the MLL Roster to schedule some games in advance.

What to Expect - I will put together a website featuring up to the minute standings for the entire league as well as strength of schedule. In the weekly thread I'll also post 'news items', discussing who's hot, who's not, and anything of particular interest.

Thanks for all the work.

This should be g00t. Have we figured out what we get for winning (other than a dollar)?

I'll photoshop your face onto a picture of TiffanyTeen.

You get the satisfaction of knowing that because of how the polls are put together that if you win, it's because you're one of if not the best heads up player on the forum.

I just dumped $50 into the account, so as long as I don't start 0-50, I'll be okay.

I will win this, my 1-5 record in HULA ML is a fluke

I'd like to get in on the last minute sign ups if possible.

Also, is there a preferred site for the matches? All I have is a Stars account so I need to know in case the preferred site is different.

I will kick your ass even though I suck, and you will know the shame of being beaten mano a mano by a microlimit fish!

Bring it.

Bring it ... but I must warn you that I'm icy cold the past three weeks.

You're in. As far as I know, Stars is the only site offering .02/.04 games, so it is our de facto stomping ground.
