Nation States College Football 1
I’m starting a 10-team American Collegiate football league and as soon as we find ten teams, we’ll get this thing going. (No puppets please)
NSCF 1 Everything Thread
League information:
-Games will be ONCE a week (similar to a real football season, as this will also give everyone a chance to RP). This will give all of us more than enough time to RP.
-Everyone MUST RP. I’m making this a rule that way this league doesn’t come down to only two people RPing in the middle of the season. Since games are once a week, I believe that everyone would have more than enough time to write up a game report, or game preview. Let me know if that’s asking too much of you.
-There will be NINE regular season games, and the top four teams will advance to a four-team playoff (championship and third place game).
Signups must include:
-Team Name (Ex. Colden University)
-Nickname (Ex. Bearcats)
-Location (Ex. Lexington (city), Moorhatch (state), Churchma (country))
-Roster (maximum of 55 players, it’s acceptable to post this later, but at some point before the first game, your roster must be up; also each player MUST have their graduating class by their name, Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, or Senior)
-Coaches
-Home Stadium and capacity (don’t need to post a picture, but you can if you’d like)
-Style of play: -5 (very defensive minded team), -4, -3, -2, -1, 0 (neutral), 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (very offensive minded team)
Scorination
I will be using NSFS3. Teams will be able to pick their style of play, and there will be a RP bonus as well. To get the RP bonus you must RP every week. Past RP's will not effect upcoming games. For example, writing a game report about game one will not have any effect in week three, four, five, etc.
When the season is over we’ll have All-Conference teams (assuming each of you keep some sort of stats throughout the season). If this goes smoothly we’ll bring everyone back for a second season, and increase the number of teams to 12 or 14.
I've already been receiving TG's to sign up teams, so i'm going to go ahead and open up the thread to sign ups. Whittoria and Auremena: I've gone ahead and saved you a spot in the league- you'll need to let me know if you don't want to participate anymore.
Recruiting
Because this is a college football league, we're going to add recruting to this. Everyone that follows college football in real life knows how important recruiting is to a program. This is how it will work:
Each nation that enters the league will send three recruits from their country to the "NSCF Blue Chip Top 30". (There will be a total of 30 top recruits this way). Throughout the season each of the ten teams in the league will have to try and persuade the players from your country to come play football at their school. Obviously each incoming class has more than three guys, but these three guys from each country are supposed to be the best three players from that particular country.
For example, during a typical week you might write a "game report" and then a "recruiting update", in this "recruiting update" you could talk about which of the "NSCF Blue Chip Top 30" recruits came and visited campus. You can talk about how they went and partied on Friday night before the game, or how they got an academic tour Saturday morning before the game, or how they had individual meetings with the head coach, or if they plan on coming back for another visit.
It will also be important for each country to set up these "visits" to other schools. It's obviously impossible for one recruit to be at three different campuses in one weekend. So you'll have to update everyone on where they plan to visit.
There will be no limit as to who you can recruit or how many players you can recruit. For example, you can recruit all three players that come out of Cosumar, and none that come out of Churchma. It doesn't matter which ones you recruit, or how many that you try and recruit.
At the end of the season (after the championship) there will be a National Signing Day and each country will decide where their three players are going to college the next year (by sending me a TG, and then I'll update the list on where every recruit will be playing). They can go to the in-country team, they might go to a rival, but who knows? It's up to you to decide where your top guys go. Let me know what you guys think about this idea! I think this might make being a part of the NSCF a little bit more interesting!
