Everyone get on soon (tm) so we can discuss important matters, like deciding upon the team name and nominating a scapegoat for our losses. + Show Spoiler + no srs, we'll probably need to discuss scheduling, roles, and lay some ground rules/expectations as a team sometime | ||

On another note, I would like to appeal my team's ban from this league: Ok, you guys are all banned from playing. Your entire team is. If you guys are just here to troll and not take things seriously, feel free to stop posting here as well. My appeal is founded on two premises: 1) That "trolling" may be prevalent in solo-queue, but the term does not carry any meaning in an amateur-level team vs. team format. Every team should have the right to decide what to pick/ban themselves and not be subject to any constraints or limited to drafting champions considered "politically correct". While pro teams may "troll" other teams on occasion, the "trolling" is fundamentally based on the large following of fans those teams have, so that by beating another team with "troll" picks it can be considered a form of disrespect for another team and fanboys will have something to lord over another group of fanboys about. Our team is a newbie team assembled from a group of friends who just want to improve, so naturally we have no fan following and we wouldn't have anything to gain in prestige from winning and losing. 2) That if you still disagree with my first premise and you are afraid we are planning to pick cheesy heroes and bm other teams after winning with such cheesy picks (which we're not - the only reason I am mentioning it is because I find it difficult to imagine how to troll in a team vs. team format) you can check with league organizers and team captains on TeamLiquid who can vouch for our reputation of mannered play in TL community leagues we've entered in the past (Liquid Pasture Community League Seasons 2 and 3) [1][2]. Based on these two premises, I think you may have misunderstood my light-hearted humor in the team application as disrespect or not taking the league seriously (which is my fault since I am a jocular person who might joke at inopportune occasions at times), but if that is the only problem you have with us I think you should give us a second chance to create a second application [3]. I also wasn't aware that the highest rank allowed was Gold 1, so I can find someone else to replace our Plat 3 guy if that's the only thing keeping us from participating.

i need to get /out, i simply don't have the time i thought i'd have last week. additionally, i believe i misread something in the OP and i thought there were going to be multiple divisions. i don't think i'd be much of an asset in terms of teaching others and i'd rather be a lowbie in the league than a team leader. i'm really sorry if this screws up our team :x if i need to find a replacement let me know also, to answer a question above, jpak is not the high elo jpak from jpak and friends. | ||

Trolling refers to picks that are deemed "unacceptable by riot/neo/roffles/whoever's running the inhouse/league" and is an offense that is, and I quote: On July 27 2013 04:33 NeoIllusions wrote: [*] Be respectful and follow said rules to the best of your ability. Blatant infractions will result in a ban to your TeamLiquid account. [*] Play orthodox champions for specific roles. Don't pick Kennen and go bot lane AD. Don't pick Rumble and go mid. Those are situations most lowbies (both on your team and against) that will not be familiar with and it's detrimental to these IHs. I would think twice about talking about that here. Personally, following the rejection my appeal, I fully acquiescence to my ban and I agree that it is absolutely within Roffle's rights to ban whoever he wants in his Inhouse League as he sees fit and hope that he runs a fun, learning experience for everybody. Remember to report anybody you find to be "trolling" in these games to remove them from the toxic player pool and to maintain the the lofty standards set by Roffles in the posts, decisions, and plays he makes for the league. That said, if this league does not run under the same rules as the parent TLLOLINHOUSE, then I'd make the same appeal that Choco did and admit that; while we would likely pick certain champions in non-standard positions/roles; that's as far as the "trolling" would extend and I'd love to play if that was the case. | ||

can you make sure to put both the TL.net name and IGN name for each player in the team rosters if possible, makes it easier on us to find each other ingame | ||

The point of these leagues is to improve, not to play like a baddie while at the same time pulling suboptimal picks and using that as a crutch for "pretending" to be bad. | ||
