2011 Star Fleet Battles World League Tournament

Run by Peter Bakija (pdb6@lightlink.com).

 

World League is a team tournament, where 3 player teams compete against each other. The first round is a round robin style event where teams score points for each game played (3 points for a win, 1 point for a loss, 0 points for a no show). After the first round, the top 6 teams (top 2 of each pool) will advance to a single elimination ladder, by team, so there will be 3 rounds of finals (6 teams with 2 byes, 4 teams, 2 teams).

News:

Sept 28, 2011: Congrats to The Orion Bikini Team (Ken Lin, GRN; Ron Brimeyer, GBS; David Zimdars, ZIN) for winning the 2011 World League Tournament. Thanks to everyone for solid efforts and timely games! Look for World League 2012 around April 2012.

Sept 18, 2011: Slightly behind schedule, the final round is set between The Orion Bikini Team and Team Colorado.

August 5th, 2011: The Quarterfinals finished ahead of time, so the Semifinals are up! Team New Jersey vs The Orion Bikini Team and Team Colorado vs The Warriors Three. Please finish your semifinal round by August 28th.

July 14, 2011: Pool games are finished and the Quarter Finals are posted. Please get your Quarter Final games done by Sunday, August 7th.

June 18, 2011: Pool games are moving reasonably well, we are over half done with all the pool games. In the name of a bit more time due to Origins and the 4th of July Weekend in the way, the first round is extended till Sunday, July 10th.

May 1, 2011: Ahead of schedule, the initial Pools are up! Please check the links below for Pools and matchups. The first round will be about 2 months for your three games and will end on Sunday, July 3 2011.

April 12, 2011: We are currently at the 8 team cutoff until we get 12 teams. As of press time, there are 9 of 12 people signed up for the extra 4 teams, so if we get 3 more people to sign up, we'll be at 12 teams (which is the next cutoff).

April 10, 2011: I am currently taking signups for teams for World League 2011. My plan is to post the initial round robin pools around May 10th, so you have till then to get a team submitted. To submit a team, someone send me an e-mail with your team name and the following information for each of the 3 team members:

-Real name, SFBOL handle, e-mail, Ship choice.

Depending on how many teams sign up, I'll go with either a Top 8, three round finals system, or a Top 4, two round finals system.

 

October 31, 2010: Team New Jersey has emerged victorious! Congrats to Team New Jersey (Brook Villa, Marcus Giegerich, Steve McCann)! World League 2011 will start again in the spring of 2011.

August 6, 2009: Going 2-0 in the finals, Team DeathTöngue beats Team Colorado for the win. Congrats to Team DeathTöngue (Bill Schoeller, Ken Lin, Roger Rardain)! Till next year!
