Default All the choices.......my mind is boggled already.

This concept is all new to me. But then again, all I'd ever played before last year was 30 plus years of solitaire and an occasional game with friends growing up. Then the Tornado Alley League was formed and I got a taste of competitive, yet fun play. I've learned so much from all the different coaches, tips, postings, and accessories offered now. I'm just a simple guy, with a simple style of play. I try not to get all caught up in the competition aspect of electric football, buzzball, or whatever else you call it. Having fun and bonding with football nuts (like Wolf) is what it's all about for me. But the thought of seeing a national tournament with consolidated rules, where any coach in the world could be welcomed is a really great idea. Having said that, here's what I'd like to see as far as equipment we could all use:

FIGURES: Miggle, ITZ, Buzzball, Reginald's, Wellington, Jennings, and anything else specifically made for playing. I'm a fan of custom figures too, so yes to them. (Just use the figure "cube" idea that Matt talked of earlier in this thread).
WEIGHT: 3.5 would be good, and I'm in favor of the heavier 4.0 linemen idea too. That should be TOTAL weight, with the base attached.
BASES: Any modern base made, with the exceptions being the huge Coleco and Gotham ones (they are just too big).
GAMEBOARDS: Anything 620-sized or just slightly bigger. I personally would love to play on custom Reggie-like boards. Metal fields are great, but so are wooden and fiber ones.
FOOTBALLS: I'd use whatever we decided on, but I like the heavier ones for passing.
