XBLN Championship Series Returns!


XBLN Championship Series originally ran on XBLN back in 2008-2009 with NCAA Football 2008, Madden NFL 09 and NCAA Football 2010. We had many community and staff members participate in our sports leagues. Today, we are looking to bring this back!

We will begin the new XBLNCS with Madden NFL 18 and hope to expand it to NBA 2K18 and potentially other sports titles as well. We will award the league champion every season with prizes including Xbox One games and giftcards. If you would like to join, either post a comment on this article or join us in the Discord! Check after the break for more about our league and the rules(TBD).

Here are the official XBLNCS rules and regulations:

To put the rules simply, this is a simulation play league. If you don't see it in a real game, then don't do it in the league.

For those that need to know more rules, here they are:

Difficulty is the All-Madden, 5 Minute Quarters, Trades are enable.


SIMPLE RULES:
CHEESE PLAY WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. SUCH ACTS LIKE GOING FOR IT ON 4TH AND LONG, CALLING THE SAME PLAY OVER AND OVER, IF YOU DON'T SEE IT IN REAL LIFE, THEN DON'T DO IT. WE HAVE ZERO TOLERANCE FOR CHEESING. WE WILL INSTITUTE A ONE STRIKE RULE. NO IFS ANDS OR BUTS.

Rules Explanation:

1) Do not abuse any known glitches in the game if there are any.

2) Punt on 4th down, especially if you have the lead. Exceptions are opponents goal line, inches past the 50 and the FG grayzone between your opponents 40-35 and behind any time in the 4th Quarter. Fakes are not allowed at any point of the game unless losing by more than 3.

3) Built in shifts only when shifting the D-line, no manually moving the DE way outside the offensive tackle. Manual movement of linebackers, safeties and corners are ok as long as they are in coverage, not blitzing. Its okay to come in on a run play or come up and fake blitz

4) No hurry up offense outside of the 2 minute warning, unless trailing by 10 or more at any point of the game. If you do use hurry up offense try and use it in moderation and not after a tackle for a loss, sack or incompletion.

5) No onside kicks unless behind 14 at any point or behind at any point in the 4th quarter.

6) When you have a clear path to score regardless of time left you must take a clear path to the end zone, no weaving or diving on the ground. This also applies to running backwards with any player on any type of play just to kill the clock. If you can seal the game by not scoring and killing clock then do so.

7) No two point conversions unless it mathematically makes sense. Like catching up or trying to seal a win at the last second.

8) Try not to eat the whole play clock, unless the game clock is not moving. If you have the ball inside the two minute warning it is okay to kill the clock.

9) Try and use your whole play book, if something works stick with it but give it different looks.

10) If mathematically you can kill the clock with the lead do not run up the score, kneel the ball.

11) No calling punt block or any variations or punt/field goal defensive plays unless a punt or field goal is called. Not even for use on the goal line.

12) No uneven user trades. We will monitor all trades and suspend players for violations.

13) Any game where the other player purposely quit without explanation, the other player will receive the win.

14) Any game where the other player disconnects from a network issue, both players can mutually agree to spot the points difference back and restart the game.

15) If a player repeatedly purposely quits the game, they will be removed from the league and the other player will get the win.

Any problems should be reported to the league admins immediately.
