G’day, Forts fans!
Are you ready for Season 5 of the Forts Pro League? Now with massively increased prizes! Everyone can sign up for the FPL group stage and registration opens on February 8th! Register your team on Challengermode and Discord following the instructions below.
Teams will be seeded into groups of 8 where they will face each other in a round robin format, with one match being played per week. Teams may schedule their match at any time during the week, but if they have not played by Sunday at 8pm utc that given week they must contact a league official on Discord and make themselves available to play their match at this time. Any team not present will forfeit that match. At the end of this stage, the teams with the most points in each group will qualify for the playoffs, where the ultimate winners will be decided.
When is it going to happen?
Signups for the FPL begin on February 8th and end on March 8th at 8pm utc. Opening day is March 15th at 8pm utc. The playoffs (tentatively scheduled for May 10th 8pm utc) will be held once the round robin stage has concluded.
If you want to participate, make sure you are free on May 10th as well as the two weekends afterwards.
