For those who take it way too seriously
So, footy's back- that's a good thing! 
How many of you are cracking 2200 this week? What's par?
How good have the rule changes been!
How good is ANZAC day gunna be?
HOW GOOD IS IT TO NOT HAVE THE SUB?!?
Stats are gunna be interesting this evening, what with a new codebase and stuff, so bare with me as we go.

Rightio-o. The ORFFL is back in town! And you know what that means? Actual FOOTBALL begins again!
What's more is @walesy has this amazing new, ultra-turbo-powered TSLeagues! If you haven't checked out yet, you must. Not simply because it's how you enter your team week-to-week for the ORFFL, but also because it's absolutely amaze-balls! It has a rising star and a brownlow tally and everything! Although I do find it a bit convenient that Todd Goldstein won the ORFFLow Medal last year and suddenly, by walesy's this new feature appears. Colour me dubious.
We're having some err 'technical difficulties' loading the fixture that @bgt2110 so lovingly supplied (big ups bro), so in the mean time here's the fixture for Round 1 of the 2016 ORFFL Championship Premiership PirateShip Season!
Round 1
Jimcumbilly Jackrabbits vs Coulta Couldabeens
Bundalong Bullfrogs vs Tarwin Lower Pigs
Smiths Beach Seagulls vs Milikapati Snakes
Poowong Pootoroos vs Bonnie Doon Bandits
Sarah Island Savages vs Mallacoota Magicians
Humpty Doo Hammerheads vs Mount Buggery Disappointments
Glenrowan Gunslingers vs Woy Woy Wizards
Queenstown Quolls vs Purnululu Bungle Rangers
Popanyinning Pyrite vs Warburton Wanderers
Whooooo-Weeeeee! Talk about action packed. At this stage of the season - year zero, anything could happen. Coaches please do the league a solid and get us off to a good start by entering teams. Usual Thursday loophole applies: if you want to play someone from the tigs vs blues game, they need to be selected before the game starts. Everyone else before Saturdays first game. We here at ORFFL HQ reserve the right to be absolute hardarses about this.
Get excited, and good hunting on the weekend coaches!
Oh and call us if you need any help. I'll be around for most of the day/evening.

Welcome Everybody to the 2016 Trading Games league!
*** TEAM UPDATED - PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU CHANGE TO THE ONE SHOWN BELOW BEFORE SATURDAY ***
What's it all about? Basically every year some of the leaders in the community gather together and choose the players picked in a team we all start with. The players in every team in the group start the same before the round 1 lockout. Then, as the year progresses, and trades are made, the challenge becomes finishing on top of the group with the most points overall. That's it; just use your trades and your emergency/captain picks wisely, and turn the team we all start with into a winning team by scoring the most points.
Rules:1. EVERYBODY must start with the exact same 30 players. No exceptions.
2. You don't use your main team, we would prefer if you 'invited' your daughter, wife, grandfather etc to create a team that you help to manage throughout the year. Don't join this league if you don't want to follow rule 1.
3. Like always, let's have fun and keep positive. Banter is expected and welcomed! Anyway, the whole thing is up in the air for discussion as always. What are your thoughts to make it interesting again this year?
Throwing this post up to gauge interest in this year's effort. It's getting pretty close to the deadline, so I'll get a team up shortly. Will be very cookie cutter I reckon (Unless there's any objections to that in the comment below)
Will also have to throw a shoutout to the Two-Time champion, @Buzzboys - you gunna throw down for the triple crown this year?
How to Join?
Step 1: Sign up to the Trading Games group

Season is just about to kick off, and we're all obviously obviously that there has been some serious changes to the site.
First things first, shout out to Jo who has been very understanding with the time that I've sunk into this thing.
Next up, features- and I'm kinda thinking that this post might become a manual of sorts, so I'll reserve a bunch of posts at the start and edit them as I go.

So whilst you are all busy making your last minute adjustments to your SC/DT teams, here at TipBetPro we are getting ready to use SC stats (amongst others) to predict the outcome of every AFL match. We’ll be sharing these tipping predictions every week on our website (http://www.tipbetpro.com/) along with key statistical insights right here at TooSerious.
Last year we tipped 152 games correctly (72%), which was 4 more than the bookies favourites, 8 more than the Swinburne University Super Computer (we use fairly standard laptops!) and we finished 1,665th out of nearly half a million footytips.com.au users.
Check it out our predictions and more over the break.

Where did all the rookie-priced players go?
Please join in the final edition of RMT below.
Please join in the final edition of RMT below.
The final list has been compiled. I will be asking people to join leagues in the coming days, however, I will need individuals from each league to set them up and PM me the code (or send it to all the league members). If anyone could volunteer that would be fantastic, it shouldn't take long to only do one league.
You will have a week from when you receive the PM to join your league, otherwise your spot will be offered to someone else.
Please ensure you join promptly to make the process easy for us all. We have exactly 4 divisions, however, if we get 18 people in this thread requesting to join a league a new one can be made. The top 4 leagues are final and will not be changed.
