Objective
Puffball, being essentially Football in Minecraft (but with a pufferfish as a ball… don't ask) is a game where two teams have an optional amount of knockback sticks (0-3) and their fists, to push Puffy the pufferfish around the pitch into each other's goal. At the end of the time limit (once again, customisable) the winning team will be the one with the highest score. One point is awarded for every goal scored. If you look at the tab list, or beneath a player's name tag, you will see how many goals they have scored individually, for some more competition.
Optionally, half way through the time limit, players will be teleported to their team's locker room, where they can shower, watch a movie, and have some chocolate milk for two minutes of team talk. If your team is ready to move on early, you can use '/ready' or click the ready message in chat. When both teams click the button, or the time is up, the second half of the match will commence.
As a spectator, you can use the lift in the Classic map's lobby. You can also pick a support banner (or hidden "support both teams" banner) to cheer on your favourite team!
Custom Commands
/tc - team chat: talk to your team privately so that the other team does not know your plans! Syntax: /tc [message]
/ready: say your team is ready during the "Team Talk" phase. Syntax: /ready

Background
Met really loves football, and Riley had the idea to make the game and use a Pufferfish as a ball. Originally it was on SMP, and when they called for help to TeamLift, we decided it would be better as a standalone game. From there, MrLift made the arena and then the stadium, and it escalated from there, to the point where we added a working lift into the game.
Puffball Classic Map with Complimentary Shaders
Future Plans
Our future plans for Puffball are to add more maps to the game, different sizes for different amounts of players, and to make the seven-segment-displays above either ends goal display each team's score. We would love feedback on this idea!
Code Notes
This game is built by Riley and MrLift using tons of command blocks. Custom commands and hidden admin menus were written in Denizen (a Minecraft plugin)
