Howdy!

I apologize if this isn't allowed. Please delete if you'd like.

About 10 years ago there was a game called Quidditch Manager. Some of you may have played it, some of you may think I'm a loon. Well ever since then I've wanted to learn how to code and bring it back.

So I did. (kind of)

Still under active development, but finally ready for Beta Prime Time (in my opinion). The game is run, currently, through Google Sheets. Upon selection of a team you will be given access to a Google Sheet which will show your entire roster and allow you to set their position, their usage, and your strategies for Seekers and Chasers. Games are streamed and watch live via Discord.

Right now we're about to start our second test weekend with the Hogwarts Quidditch Cup testing some new features and different rules. Immediately following this I expect to be able to kick of the Inaugural Season of the British and Irish Quidditch League - featuring the 13 canon teams. Should this prove to be popular I also plan to implement a traditional pyramid system with promotion and relegation - anyone who played Quidditch Manager should know about this.

So come check it out! Feel free to ask me any questions or clarify anything. I'll do the best I can.

Quidditch has always been one of my favorite things about Harry Potter. I've been tinkering with what the 2018 Quidditch World Cup would look like in the Harry Potter universe for some time and wanted other opinions on what could happen. We know that Bulgaria won in 2014 against Brazil and a lot happened in that tournament, but what about the next one?

My current endgame is Mexico and Japan in the finals, though the other 14 countries I've not had a set bracket. Any and all opinions and suggestions welcome!

🤷‍♂️ Seems like fun wish we could start up the next season...

Hey guys! I just found this subreddit, and was wondering when the new season starts and how to get onto a team etc. Thanks!

I have been granted by the mods of this sub to start a new team, namely the Appleby Arrows.

We are currently recruiting, but the team will only be in practice sessions until the next season starts.

We currently need positions for:

• Two Beaters
• A Chasers
• A Seeker

Head on over to /r/Appleby_Arrows to try out for the team! If you give it your best shot, you could join the ranks of the Arrowmen!

Special thanks to /u/k9centipede for allowing this team to form mid-season.

-/u/adamrsb48 -- Captain and Chaser of the Appleby Arrows

Per Captain Requests we will be scheduling this game for Thursday Feb 4th at 9pm EST!

Join us in the #TheStands irc chatroom, where we will play 3 rounds of Google Spreadsheet Quidditch. The players on the winning team each round will earn themselves a House point!

Sorry for the delay in getting the results up! I've been having a busy week.

With consideration to the attendance these activities have received, and my own personal schedule, I am dropping both Puddlemere United and Barrenheim Behrs from the tournament as they have yet to have a single game occur to date.

Matches that they would have participated in will now just be Bye Weeks, with no games scheduled.

The tournament will be between the following teams only:

• Chudley Cannons
• Holyhead Harpies
• Moose Jaw Meteorites
• Quiberon Quafflepunchers
• Tutshill Tornados.

The Future Schedule is:

• Monday Dec 21, Quibberon Quafflepunchers vs Chudley Cannons
• Monday January 4, Moose Jaw Meteorites vs Tutshill Tornados
• Monday January 25, Moose Jaw Meteorites vs Quibberon Quafflepunchers
• Monday February 1, Tutshill Tornados vs Holyhead Harpies
• Monday February 29, Chudley Cannons vs Holyhead Harpies.

Captains may request an alternate date the week of their matches. If Captains want an alternate time than 9pm Eastern US, they must find a referee to volunteer to cover it. Otherwise all other games will continue on their dates, at 9pm Eastern US time, in the #TheStands IRC Chatroom and Quidditch Google Spreadsheet Game Board.

The current points are:

Each team has 2 more matches to play in to earn points towards winning the QUIDDITCH WORLD CUP!

Remember, those that participate can earn themselves a House Point per round. A total of 7 players can compete for each team per round, limit 4 players from a single house.

I will schedule some fun practice games in the future for anyone interested in learning or just wants more experience.

Thank you to everyone that has enjoyed this activity so far!
