Thanks for everything

This is where I met avenged. A very important friendship I assure you.

I'll never forget the battlefield of season 1. With Graphic artest staying we could have won. Sorry I used multiple accounts bros and sis's. :(

Edit: At least we won the very first battle with the most people /r/periwinkle and our trophies are victorious

Remind those Periwinkle scum that we are still here!

I've had the trophy since the event I always thought it was teamer ORANGER-ed I didn't know how one oranged, but apparently I was an oranger.

I was just looking through old posts on PCMR when I saw a user who was inactive a few years ago. He had a trophy with the name ''Team Periwinkle'' I googled it and a post came up from 2 years ago from a user asking what the trophy meant. Someone mentioned this subreddit and a huge battle broke out. Just noticed there was a war in r/all. And you guys unfortunately lost. And now I'm here.

As some of you may know, I'm apart of B̷̛̼̯̎́̉͐͐͑̿̕o̵̢̨̼̠̠̟͚̳͂́̃̑̔͊͗͝ͅt̴͕̹̣͈̤͍̖͉͎́͆̄͊͋́͜ḩ̴̨̳̀̎̈́̂͊̏e̸̯͔̙͐̊̄̔̔r̵̰̂̍́͑͠ which is a ''cult'' where people have the RGB broach as their profile pic. All I'm asking is there any advice some of you veterans would like to give us in relation to going to war?

Long live Team Orangered

Long live B̷̛̼̯̎́̉͐͐͑̿̕o̵̢̨̼̠̠̟͚̳͂́̃̑̔͊͗͝ͅt̴͕̹̣͈̤͍̖͉͎́͆̄͊͋́͜ḩ̴̨̳̀̎̈́̂͊̏e̸̯͔̙͐̊̄̔̔r̵̰̂̍́͑͠

Well it feels good to be back. Thank you moderators.

arrrrrrrrrgh periwinkle is inferior to orangered. we need justice. earth would be a utopia if periwinkle was dead

Oops

Orangered moderator here, it has been a long time since I've spoken to many of you but I miss it dearly! We had so much fun and I know we've all moved on but I want to help fill the void that this game may have left. If you miss a reddit game with a bot where you put in a bunch of numbers and win (but without all the math) here's the solution: /r/FakeCollegeFootball. It's a Reddit game that deals solely with college football. Essentially you guess a number between 1-1500, as does the defense, and how close the number is to the defense a certain play happens. You play a full game/season like this. And this isn't just limited to the gameplay - we have built a full community around this, with a weekly poll, bowl games and the Playoff, a coaching carousel, and much more.

We've never advertised here before and a lot of our user base has come from other reddit subs. While we often have posted ads in the middle of the season when only a couple teams are open, this one is different. Right now, you can jump into a game pretty much right away with our well-developed and active FCS. The FCS is like a minor league here, a place to play while you wait for an FBS team to open up and get promoted midseason, except there are over a hundred other coaches there to keep you company and play games just as thrilling as those in the FBS. Due to having the FCS nearly full, we've opened up D2, but FCS teams will be filled first before D2, so sign up for FCS teams first. However you don't have to move up to FBS if you don't want to, I'm a VP of the FCS and I love it and intend to stay there forever.

Note that at the time of this posting we're between weeks. You won't be put into a game until the new week starts on Wednesday, but you are welcome to find someone to scrimmage before then. If you were to join midweek, you'd be able to play right away, however.

One of my personal favorite parts of how this league works is that P5/G5 standing, or IRL standing in general, means nothing. Our national champion was #7 Marshall, who defeated #1 Missouri 34-31 in a triple overtime thriller. The only thing that dictates how well you perform is your own skill at guessing numbers - though doing it strategically is harder than it looks.

If this piques your interest, you can sign up here, after which it's recommended to join the Discord. Before you sign up, pick an FCS team from the FCS user database, and you can also check out the FCS stat sheet for the FCS schedule, standings and what not.

IMPORTANT: Looking at the user database, you will see that most teams are listed as taken. Anything in the regular FCS listed as available is obviously open for the taking unless someone beat you to it, as well as anything listed as double dipping. Suspended schools could come open soon, but are not immediately available (a team is placed under that category if their coach disappeared at some point midweek). If this all is too confusing for you, join the Discord first and someone will be happy to help you through the signup process!

And for more general information, see the primer.

##GO FCS AND VIVA LA ORANGERED!!!

If you're reading this late, know that we do this throughout the full calendar year and you're welcome to join at any time!

Don't know how many of you remember me. I used to go by djreoofficial. I was here from the original April fools event and onward through the first year, and was the founder of novum persarum.

That was some real fun stuff.

It’s simple

The Periwinkle battle may be over, but the spirit of this still lives on (kind of anyway from what I see here) on r/flairwars.

If anyone wants to dust of their weapons, we would be lucky to have you.

im not the one who holds onto the past... but im always gone remember my time here.

Normie popping in here. Not part of the war, but definitely against the periwinkles.

I just realized for the first time, that Orangered is "Orange Red". The whole time I had been reading it as "Orange-erred" like it was more of a verb with Orange being the root, and now I feel dumb.
