  • The two groups thing doesn't work very well imho.
    we have more than 6 fast players, its frustrating being a fast player in the slow games for the whole day...

  • Yeah, that's true. There has to be a cutoff somewhere though.

    And it's counterproductive doing mixed games all day. It just makes for uncompetetive games where people take wildshots, showboat or make unnatural passes to newer players to 'bring them into the game'. Those kind of games have a place, but I don't think it serves anyone well to play games you don't care about winning or losing all the time.

  • dan..i canna (give you no more power captain) remember the od of the goals tubing..scrap bin rape..measure it please..=)

  • OK. We've been talking about this for a while, everyone going to Critical Mass this Friday turn up on their polo bike.

    Emm, if you can send me a design / good pic I can print some flyers. Or i can use mya's mutant hand image.

  • Ace. bring mallets and balls too.

  • We talked about it at the AGM and decided to do it when we have flyers and a 'who we are and what we do' video to link to, for maximum effect.

    No harm in doing it a few times though.

  • Yeah cool, use the mutant hand!

  • Don't get me wrong, the hand is nice, but isn't it a bit punk/anarcho-vegan/Satanic? We're trying to attract as broad a group of people as we can as we've pretty much exhausted the punk/anarcho-vegan/Satanic community of South Birmingham...

  • Yeah, lets put Cameron on it.

  • This one of Matt is nice.

    Something that represents the game well, IE wide/high angle, people in team kit and formation with at least one goal visible would be good. But those ones can look a bit busy. I'll see what I have.

    Oi!! i have raised Devil horns at gigs but i don't sacrifice Chickens.

  • the tags are back!

  • I'll do 100ish for mass just to start publicising.

    That pic is a lovely shot but a poor choice for a flyer. I think an illustration would work best esp if we're printing in black and white. Anyone want to design something specifically for posters and flyers?

  • Ace. bring mallets and balls too.

    Post-mass knock about?

  • its the only thing to do when stopped at traffic!

  • but yes, definately. are you coming too dan?

  • early finito for moi on a friday...in for a knock..finish at one hurty..

  • but yes, definately. are you coming too dan?

    Yeah, I'll suck up my misgivings for the good of BBP.

  • Mutant hand is nice for a tee or something but not quite right for a flyer imho. I think the flyers looked nice before with a photo on but if that doesn't work than a simple vector illustration like the one Adrienne(?) did for the LII would work too? Would it be an idea to tell people, "Hey, we're going to play at so and so a time after mass if you want to come with us and have a go?"

    In other news Dan and I can both make Brighton! illlllllllllllllll pigs?

  • In other news Dan and I can both make Brighton! illlllllllllllllll pigs?

    YEAH.

    I did this last week, I am mad busy with uni work at the moment, but can improve it if people want it edited..

  • That's more like it. Much better to link to the blog/facebook/forum than to have days/times on there, because they inevitably change.

    Good job EMM.

  • Nice one Matt! Could the colours be a little brighter perhaps and have a chunkier typeface for BBP (I can't read white on colour because I'm blind)?

  • Do people prefer this one?

  • Yeah!
