Title: Who wants to Pluck a Duck?
Post by: Squash on August 25, 2013, 09:34:08 pm: Ducks are here, and we aren't going anywhere, if you think you can bring us down a peg, challenge us here for scrimmages, any day of the week.

Yeah.

Post by: Morblitz on August 26, 2013, 12:51:06 am: Why not? It's not like a whole new thread is being made for every single scrim. Plus it's a much more official record than just organising stuff off-site and hoping everyone remembers the schedule.

Better for them to have their own threads than to clutter up currently existing ones with scrim organising.

Eventually we'll have 10 different threads pushing down all the actual events and it will be a mess of spam like the Docks.

I think having *a* thread for scrimmage organization (there is already a sticky one, although it's not updated right now) is a good idea, but not one per team.

I don't think either of those claims is true. Prior to the creation of this one, there was nobody posting in such a thread, and I don't see how it would go from 0 to unusable in any reasonable amount of time. Especially if it's kept to single posts from teams and not random crew coming in cluttering the place with redundant statements and images.

Post by: Gryphos on August 26, 2013, 06:31:36 am: I think it would work if clans could have individual challenge threads, and the main scrimmage thread is a sort of record of the fights and their outcomes.

Post by: N-Sunderland on August 26, 2013, 12:47:10 pm: So yeah, if you're interested in a scrim with the Ducks, post in this thread or contact me/Squash.
