Prize based website – Fast Break Play (Online) launched

GM Games was recently contacted by one the creators of Fast Break Play (Mark). Their first league has started on May 21st, 2014 and will be running another league in the near future.

It appears the game has a lot of customization in how you can name your team. From first glance we can see international teams playing against each other in the format. There appears to be financials for making your own arena.

It seems like a good approach to offer the game for free and have prizes for participation. This will likely bring a user base in quickly. GM Games has not taken a look at the complexity of the simulation engine and how well it performs.

But if you would like to give it a shot, here is some information about the game and screens.

Our premier league is called the Fast Break Play Championship League which features the top 32 teams across all FBP leagues. You can think of this top league as the NBA.

Then we have our first secondary league known as the Fast Break Play Super League which includes the best teams below our premier FBP Championship League. You can think of this first secondary league as the NBA D-League.

Then below our top FBP Super League, we have additional secondary leagues in our Fast Break Play Super League-2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.

Q – How is the regular season and playoffs structured in the various Fast Break Play Leagues?

The regular season consists of 15 games across 15 days. The top 4 teams in each division qualify for the playoffs. The playoffs include 4 rounds of a best of 3 series for a total of 12 days with 1 day break between each stage.

The playoff rounds include the first round, conference semi-finals, conference finals and championship finals. Total season is complete in 31 days which includes 15 days for the regular season, 12 days for the playoffs and 1 day off between the regular season and playoffs.

Q – What is the Fast Break Play Relegation Series?

The Fast Break Play Relegation Series is for the bottom ranked teams after the regular season is complete. The bottom ranked teams (5th, 6th, 7th and 8th) after the regular season in each division in each league then play in the Fast Break Play Relegation Series. The Fast Break Play Relegation Series is to determine if the bottom ranked teams can continue to play in their current league or get demoted to a lower league for next season.

The Fast Break Play Relegation Series will be a best of 3 series in the first round. The winner of the first round, stops playing and gets to stay in his or her current league for the next season. The loser of the first round continues to play two more best of 3 series and the ultimate loser gets relegated to the lower league next season. This system allows for the top leagues to always have the best teams.
