 Overview
Hollywood League is a fantasy celebrity league where you create a team of your favorite celebrities, and compete against your friends to prove who gossips more. As the celebs on your team do stupid things and get on blogs (TMZ, Cele|bitchy, The Socialites Life..etc), they get points for your team. The team with the most points at the end of the season wins!

The basics:
- You join or create a league
- Create a wishlist of the celebs you want on your team
- Celebs on your team get in the news and score points
- The season ends and the team with the most points gets proof they gossip the most...

It's free to get started - Register here.

 Leagues

Basics

There are 3 different types of leagues. Public, Private and Custom. The type of league will determine who is allowed to play, and what the rules are.

You can either create a new league, or join a league which has not started yet. Once the league starts, no more people are allowed to join. The person who creates the league is known as the "commissioner" and is the person who helps coordinate the league.

Public
  • Anyone is allowed to play in a public league
  • The game run for 3 weeks
  • Up to 8 teams in a league

    Private
  • The creator has to invite people to play in this league (password is needed to join)
  • The game runs for 3 weeks
  • Up to 8 teams in a league
  • This requires a Silver membership to create (not join)

    Custom
  • The creator has to invite people to play in this league (password is needed to join)
  • You get to set the game length
  • You set how many teams are in the league
  • You can control the rules
  • This requires a Gold membership to create (not join)

  •  Teams
    Each player in the league gets a team made up of celebrities. Each celebrity can be in 1 and only 1 team for each league. To determine who gets what celebrity a draft is done at the beginning of the season. Depending on how well a celebrity is doing, you can choose to drop them from your team and pick a free celebrity up, or trade with someone else.

     Season
    Pre-Season
    As soon as the league is created until the point when it starts is the pre-season. This is when other players join the league, and wishlists for the celebs people want are created.

    Season in progress
    While the league is running till the end is when celebs score points. Players can add and trade celebs during this time

    Post-Season
    Once the league is over and all scoring is done. The team with the most points wins!

     Drafting
    The draft decides who gets what celebrity on their team. This draft is either done automatically by HollywoodLeague, or done "offline" at a draft party (probably with wine too).

    The typical draft has each person in the league go in order and pick their favorite celebrity. Once a celebrity is picked, no one else can pick that celebrity. This is done until all the players teams are filled with celebrities.

    For either type of league, the draft order wraps around (i.e., if you have the first pick in the first round, you have the last pick in the second round, first pick in the third round, and so on).

    Automatic draft
    This is the typical option where HollywoodLeague randomly picks the order of where each player drafts. The computer goes in the random order and selects the highest-rated celebrity based on either our default ranking or your pre-rankings to add to your team.

    It's smart for all players to pre-rank celebrities. To do this, just go to your team page and select "Edit your draft pool."

    Offline draft
    In this draft, the league conducts its own draft in any manor they like (typically w/ a party). The commissioner (person who created the league) is responsible for submitting the results of this draft into HollywoodLeague. This can be done by "managing" the league.

    D-Listed
    There are a few celebrities who just can't stay out of the news (usually Britney or Paris), and who ever is lucky enough to get these celebrities always wins a league. To even the playing field the top scoring 2 (can be changed in a custom league) celebrities in the past 30 days are ineligible to be on a team for that league and a "D-Listed" from competition.

     Scoring
    Every time a celebrity on your team shows up on a gossip site, your team will receive 1 point. The gossip sites are chosen at time of league creation
