Kalel, I might need your help getting started.

Lu..no problem...I am in! Hey this ladder looks to be hosted by game battles...the majority of our clan is registered but we may need some of the newer recruits who are interested in participating to register..My suggestion is to create an overall R2 Clan in Gamebattles by using our other game battles clans as a template...if you need me to do this and set you up as a Co-leader I can or vice versa...since it is only 4X4 we should get a good handful of members register to allow for subs and schedule conflicts......jo-louie, draco, PlayitLoud, cramos, innerkid, nightnyx, serialbox, wodsoa, and anyone else in the clan SIGN UP NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you don't mind Kalel, I prefer the latter.
I'm afraid I'll create a 'new team' as opposed to a new group within the existing team.
Their site navigation is confuzzling me.
Let me know when it's ready to Join the ladder if you don't do that part also, right now if I'm logged in & try to join the ladder it tries to get me to create a new team.

ok...GB team clan ladder is created for 50,000 tourney...http://gamebattles.com/ps3/resistance-2/team/justice-league-alliance There is a max member for the 50,000 ladder of 4 and we may have met that. We may have our own internal alternates to possibly switch out..once completed we can increase the gb roster if needed.
As much as I'd love to join.. You have to be over 17, and a US resident. Which I am neither. I'll have to sit this one out. Sorry guys
I can’t seem to do anything on Game Battles…. All the other teams have huge rosters, I guess cause they were already in the winter 2009 ladder for R2. When I try to Join that ladder, the Team information is a duplicate [there already is a team name in existence, duh] I can’t increase the roster size of eligibles, and I can’t create a JLA team in R2 in general.. very frustrated, if it’s not remedied, I can’t ‘run’ a contest with a roster of four to draw on, and the 12 hour requirement for eligibility….We’d only have four people that were ever allowed to play, no alternates. And no chance anyone else who wants to participate would be able to [easily] . If anyone has any ideas, let me know.
We need to get organized first, I guess ...Need to know how many people wanna participate, If we rotate how we would distribute prizes, If there are alternates, how we can be sure to quickly add them to the roster, and how we can quickly get a hold of them. For the core four what weapon loadouts everyone is going to use [Four snipers would fail in core control], remind them what beserks are cause for disqualification... etc I don't feel ready yet. Need to get more chat bout it on the blog or something so we can Iron out details, I don't want a Warhawk debacle, I have to If you [or someone more ambitious] wanna run with this one cause you have the rules down, and the match set up down pat, lemme know I'll quickly take a back seat as an alternate. I love playing, but don't have to compete.
Ok, Kalel has the Roster fixed so we can increase it in R2 and still have our 4 for the Matches.
We need more participation so we have alternates.
We need to know who wants to participate as with 4 on 4 we need a game plan.
All you good players apply Now! ...i.e. Cramos!
