Cheerleaders don't actually influence the kick-off table in any way but improve your chance of winning a bonus re-roll for the half if the kick-off table comes up with a six (by rolling 2d6). Fan factor can be improved by playing, especially winning, games and helps determine your Fan Advantage ModifiEr (FAME). At the beginning of the game each team rolls 2d6 and adds their fan factor. The higher result wins a +1 FAME bonus on various kick-off table rolls and on their revenue roll at the end of the match (bonus increases to +2 if you score at least twice as high as the other team). If you have somehow ended up with that much spare cash, you should probably just buy as many team re-rolls as possible and spend the rest on fan factor, since the bonuses are more consistent in both cases. I cannot stress the importance of reading the rules enough, the in-game documentation is sparse and occasionally misleading.

Will do so HL

I'm thinking, I could livestream the game! That way, people could watch the match, as I play it! If this is the case, Ill probably switch to the 'blitz' rules and do realtime, so that the matches dont last as long, and are more dramatic. What do people think, would anyone be interested in attempting this? (i already have a life stream basic account)

Anyone up for a test stream sometime? (Im in GMT+0 but am avaliable varied times currently)

[Neonivek]

I really don't mind what time space you play the game in. Honestly I wouldn't mind it going sloooooooow mooooooooo

Go ahead and try it but I've gotten some seriously mixed reviews of the Blitz mechanics and they are not to my own tastes. Streaming would be pretty cool if you record it and/or allow the public to comment upon the matches. I probably wouldn't be able to participate but it would certainly help get the readers involved in your LP.

Yeah blitz isnt my favorite rules, but as you say recording might be a good idea! that way after I stream (if anyone watches) I can edit out the turn based highlights and put on youtube.

for anyone interested, the livestream address would be

Ill be testing this in a moment.

[USEC_OFFICER]

Hey, can I be a sub as well?

[Deadmeat1471]

sure USEC ill add you on the list!

[Deadmeat1471]

Dont take the piss lol, I was testing something!!

[SHAD0Wdump]

Well you could at least not make me look silly while your at it!

[Deadmeat1471]

Ill be recording the games in fraps and putting on youtube, the streaming stuff is too poor and the quality of fraps is far higher + has sound.

First game ill record in a couple of hours, should be up on youtube by tomorrow, Ill aim for 1 game a day

*also ill note any worthy facts (such as level ups) in the first post.

Damn, I was kinda hoping to be one of the more agile players. Oh well.

I'll trade spots with you if Deadmeat allows it. I'm kinda more of a brawn guy myself. (unlike in reality)

[Deadmeat1471]

I'll switch you two when i can (will have to buy new players and sack the previous), currently priority is hiring the subs we need

I've finished the first game, its being uploaded as we speak, will be a while though - large files!
