Re: Bringing back the team contests?

In. I'm ready for some competition.

That was the contest where the data center where RU was hosted caught on fire and site was offline for several days.

Do the teams pick genres or games? I think games will be simplest.

Maybe instead of fully random teams, try to make every team have the same total score on Leaderboard
Example.
TiF =18,310
Elrod = 16,357
Kong = 3,228
Barra = 3,225
Dudebro = 1,871
Wolf = 1,796

League score isn't prefect but Tif+Barra+Wolf vs Elrod+Kong+Dudebro is much more fair than random chance stacking TiF+Elrod+Barra vs Kong+Dudebro+Wolf. No offense to anyone but I think we all know who we would bet on. We should try to spread the ringers around if we can.

I don't think the old rules need much tweaking except maybe
deleting the bonus section
no limit on how many balls a player can pick up
you have to pick up at least 2 balls a week or you are out
increase 2 hours to 4 hours.
a player can't repeat a choice more than 25% of the time. Once you pick a game, you can't pick that same game again until after you've thrown at least 3 other games.

Does someone want to make a better tracking system than the forum? If not then I'll probably do it myself.
