Freedom PvP League 2011 - Draft Thread and basic team guidelines

INITIAL DRAFT IS CLOSED AFTER THIS POST, ANY APPLICATIONS AFTER THIS POST WILL ONLY BE INCLUDED IN THE SUPPLEMENTARY DRAFT

The draft will happen at 8:30 PM eastern tommorow, Sunday the 25th. Each team needs a rep from their team, preferably 2, preferably Captain/co-captain, or a rep chosen by the Captain to represent. If a Captain can't make it, please let me know and please let me know who will be taking your place to avoid any drama with that.

As of this post the initial draft is closed for signups, any sign ups after this point can only be in supplemental drafts.

THE DRAFT will happen on Sunday, September 25th, signups must be in by Sept 23rd. Any free agent sign ups after the 23rd will be put into the supplementary draft pool.

Following that the pre-season will be for 2 weeks, the league will run for 6-8 weeks (depending on amount of teams) with a post-season/playoff running 2-3 weeks.

Core team sizes are a maximum of 10 and a minimum of 5 players. The teams with less than 8 will be allowed to ask draftees beforehand or fill in spots as needed until they reach at least 8, with a maximum of 10.

More comprehensive posts about rules will come in a week or 2, so far we have decided on: Banning TK, Jump Pack, and Steam Pack, limit of 3 stalkers. All incarnates but Alpha are banned.

Rules are decided via Captain's vote.

Consider this the "official" draft thread. Any free agent apps should be submitted here, and no where else.

All applications should follow this format...

What are your global handles/recognizable names?
What server do you primarily play on?
What server do you prmarily PvP on?
What toons do you have to offer for 8v8 PvP?

If any, what toons would you be willing to transfer to Freedom for a league?
What do you consider your primary/optimal role in a team setting?

Briefly describe your experience in PvP. (If you were on other 8v8 teams list them here, any substantial experience here also)
(OPTIONAL) (Only answer if you have a firm grasp of team rosters)
Name Captains you would prefer to play for, minimum of 3. If you pick 3 I can guarantee you a spot on one of the 3 you choose, if you don't then whoever drafts you will be final. Also when we get down to the last draftees, there might be instances where people have to be picked in order to keep teams even numbers, in this case the draft protection will not apply.

I will ask teams to make posts about their teams on the arena boards ASAP.

Drafting will most likely take place in 2-3 weeks, check with me or on the forums for updates on that.

Draft order will follow a serpentine order.

If you have any questions you can contact me with a PM on the forums or in-game, @TheKatalyst.
