I've seen a few comments about the new comm , you have been living under a rock if you haven't seen this pimped somewhere on your flist ;)
So...what is it?
It's a challenge community. A few people had discussed the fact that since and
shoot_and_score closed there wasn't much in the way of challenges/competition in the footie fandom.
There are several other very successful challenge comms running for various fandoms so
leetje took on a mammoth task of opening one in in the footie fandom, it's a huge undertaking and she's done an awesome job!
For all my waffling so far, I still haven't actually explained what it is *grin*
So, you join the comm and get assigned to a team (wingers, 'keepers, defenders, strikers or if you're very lucky midfielders
bet you can't guess which team I manage!).
Each week challenges are posted, they range hugely. There will be fic challenges, graphics challenges and a host of various games from wordsearches/crosswords/logic puzzles/jigsaw puzzles etc etc.
You don't have to enter every challenge (unless you want to) but so long as you enter 1 a week (and some of them take literally 5 mins) that's all we ask.
Points get assigned for challenges, you get points for participation as well as winning.
The team points mount up and the teams battle against each other to be crowned the league champions.
It's not all challenges, it's also fun. Each team has their own team comm where there's fun and games and chatting etc as well
Hopefully that has cleared it up a bit more and maybe some more of you will be interested. Each team currently has enough members that the challenges have begun but it's not too late to join. I'm still looking for an asst manager to help me run the midfielder comm (preferably someone who is layout savvy!)
Anywho that's all for now, I'm off to
throw boots at rally my team ;)
