OPEN SCRIMMAGES: black n whites
The open scrimmages event is open to all insured MVP Passholders.
At this point, most people have played in an open scrimmage before. But if you haven’t, here are some helpful tips:
- All skill levels are welcome, but its wise to watch and gauge the intensity level before jumping in
if you’re not intermediate or advanced, don’t be shy about letting everyone in the pack know it. Your teammates will look out for you and the other team will be less likely to murder you.
If you are intermediate or advanced, let strangers hit you first (so you know they can take it) before leveling them. Don’t pick on rookies.
Likewise, if you hit someone, be ready to get hit back. Don’t say you’re new, throw giant blocks, and expect no reciprocation.
Its okay to move back in line to go in with someone particular - but don’t jump forward in the line, especially when its long. The only exception is when the next jam group is ASKING for someone to play a particular position (usually a jammer).
White usually has a shorter line.
Jammers usually get to play more until everyone figures that out and starts being willing to jam
You don’t have to be awesome to play any position. For example, many advanced players have as much fun offensive blocking for beginner jammers as they would in a jam with an advanced jammer.
No one is judging you. No one cares. So don’t worry about doing good - HAVE FUN!
