Can I sign up as an alternate? My schedule is somewhat limited (has to start after 2100 PST) and I don't want to bring down my team if I'm not able to show up for a round. Of course, this is still a better choice than not having a full team! So if the number of sign-ups isn't a multiple of 3, then feel free to recruit me. I fight for the Rebellion, by the way.
A bit late to it, but this is not a terrible idea.
** New Rule **
Each team may, if they so choose, bring one (1) "alternate" who may play in one game per team matchup, replacing a regular team member only if that team member is unable to schedule a game. The "alternate" must use the list of the team member they are replacing. The use of an "alternate" must be announced when the game is officially scheduled in the thread.
I love this rule! ![]()
Does the alternate need to be announced as part of the team before sign-ups close, or are they free-agents who we can wrangle in during the comp?
