DarkKnight Posted April 23, 2016 Author Share Posted April 23, 2016 I'm having some trouble with continuing this. I want to put 12 teams in the league and work from there. 6 in each league, and the playoffs would be an 6 team tournament. I'm struggling with name ideas, so any help would be much appreciated. Below are all the cities I am thinking of doing, and several team names East Omaha Iron Horses San Antonio Rebels Nashville Sounds Cowboys Des Moines Kernels Croppers Souix Buffalo Rapids Smoke Walleye Myrtle Beach Hammerheads Waves Jaws New Orleans Hurricanes Gators Herons West Las Vegas Martians Gamblers Aces Portland Beavers Grizzlies Trappers Albuquerque Desert Dogs Wolves Falcons Billings Bison Magic Travelers Sacramento Cranes Rivercats Sluggers Salt Lake City Pioneers Badgers Saints Vancouver Natives Canadians Pines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jvhn177 Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Nashville: Sounds is already a triple-a team, I'd go with rhythm or blues or something along those lines Des Moines: Your on the right track, but none of those names are quite right Buffalo: Thunder, as in a herd thundering and the fact there are lightning bolts on the city flag Myrtle Beach: Blacktips, type of shark New Orleans: Brass, instruments often played in jazz, blues could work here too Las Vegas: Silver Aces, Silver City and State and obviously gambling Portland: Beavers is a former triple-a team, but I do like that name, maybe lumberjacks otherwise Albuquerque: Desert Dogs, or some Native American influence Billings: Magic, or Rims for Rimrocks, or Crows Sacramento: Rivercats are a triple-a team, Grizzlies or Bears (California Flag), Stars (CA Flag), Knights because of Sacramento Kings Salt Lake City: Stingers or Bees (Beehive State), Saints (Mormon Church) Vancouver: Canadians already a minor league team, Captains or Skipjacks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jvhn177 Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Have you thought about using paint or Inkscape or even hand-drawing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest darkpiranha Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 I like that I see some rarely or never used names on this list. My votes go to: something else for Nashville. Both Cowboys and Sounds have other teams that already clearly "own" that name. Croppers Smoke Waves Herons Gamblers (although this is right on the edge of being too common) Trappers Desert Dogs (this one is a bit clunky, but it gets points for being a team name I've never seen used. Bison Rivercats Pioneers (although I'd keep working on this one) Pines There's a million leagues here. Keep doing what you're doing and make stuff that we haven't seen a million times before..

And honestly, if you keep making your stadiums as good of quality and realistic as you have been, I think you're in good shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkKnight Posted April 24, 2016 Author Share Posted April 24, 2016 Here's Nashville Municipal Stadium. It is a dual football/baseball stadium, so here are the football setup shots. And here are the baseball shots. \ All the seats in center for football are available for baseball, except for the the center half of each center section (for the batters eye), but the suites and other seats are part of the baseball setup.

Not your fault obviously but just curious You are correct. I have no idea why (it's probably the program), but when I zoom out (especially when there are small details like the hashmarks on the football field), the image gets really blurred and I don't know how to fix it.

DarkKnight Posted April 26, 2016 Author Share Posted April 26, 2016 Up next, Myrtle Beach Hammerheads. Stadium is set right on the beach, so the backdrop is the ocean.

DarkKnight Posted April 28, 2016 Author Share Posted April 28, 2016 Update: I'm 80% with the Buffalo stadium and lets just say it's interesting. I'll leave it at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkKnight Posted April 28, 2016 Author Share Posted April 28, 2016 Buffalo Thunder is done. Also, it'd be great if I got some feedback, because I haven't gotten much for the last few stadiums. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkKnight Posted May 1, 2016 Author Share Posted May 1, 2016 Last Stadium in the East, New Orleans Blues. This is a pretty simplistic stadium, with high walls around the outfield to protect against flooding. As I said earlier, I am going to take a break and do a wiffleball league concept that should be pretty interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
