WOLF,

I was also thinking along those line also. About a year or two back wellington innovations (brad smith approached me with this idea). Instead of the whole team you just send the bases. people are funny about sending there teams . I was thinking of sending the bases with an unpainted white team to play against your team. All the visitng team would have to do is put the number of the player on the base and or jersey written. UJNLESS YOU REALLY WANT TO DECAL. The way technology is going, a coach can play the game over the internet so the visiting coach can see and call his own plays.
As the visiting coach is watching, he can say no no i want # 35 or so lined up here. THEY KEY HERE IS, IS DOES NOT MATTER WHO SETS UP YOUR TEAM WHERN YOU KNOW YOUR OWN BASES AND HOW THEY RUN. So there is no cheating, i think every coach should sign or mark his base only in a way were he knows he signed or marked that bases. (underneath). Upon watching a play, if something is questionable as it is being watched over the internet. He can say, PLEASE PCK UP THAT BASE SO HE CAN SEE HIS SIGNATURE UNDERNEATH TO ENSURE A BASE WAS NOT SWITCHED.


This will take time to iron out but it can work. THE ULTIMATE TRAVEL LEAGUE. We can also run the game over ustream and ask some coaches to be a third and fourth eye as online ref's. This is no different than a person from california playing a person from new jersey in madden on the internet. The only difference is they will not have to mail there team like we would.

Passing, the host team can pass however they want. When the visiting teams wants to pass it should only be sticks or percentage passing only. The visiting coach can tell the home team exactly where he wants the sticks and can see how his receiver is angled. or with percentage passing he can be shown the dice immediately. Lets face it, it you had to pass for the visiting team via ttqb or tdq, HOW SERIOUS AND FOCUSED ARE YOU GOING TO BE THROWING THE PASS. Can you say, " i think i will angle the tdq a little off, he won't be able to tell ". These mini camera's larue found may help this along pretty nicely.

Wolf, this can work, It can be a new chapter for the MFCAL. THEY KEY IS ALL IN THE BASES. To also ensure fairness and trust or non trust. TAKE A PICTURE OF EACH AND EVERY BASE AS AN EXTREME CLOSE UP AND HAVE THOSE PICTURES PRINTED AND PLACED ON A CHART. If you see your bases not running the way you designed them, have the coach get an extreme close up of the prongs and match it with your picture.

so basically, it's your team against a non painted white teams. UNLESS THE VISITING COACH DOES NOT MIND PAINTING AN ENTIRE TRAVEL TEAM. I guess you can paint at leastthe helmet. Or paint the enitire team with out decals.

What about the rules., does the home teams submitt his own personal rules online for all in the league to study often or a week before game time. It will take a while to set this up right but it will work nicely.
