    I'm way behind in my games now!! Going to make a big push this week to play them, so I'll be on most nights to get them finished!!

    On the standings screen it if you scroll across, where it says "Games Left", its 1 if you still have to play the guy, its 0 if you don't.

    I'm on the last mission in GTA now, so I'll be back to my Fifa addiction after I finish that.

    Mordant Shaun 3 - 2 Greenhawk

    Some people take this league way too seriously!!! :rolleyes:

    I was 2 down at half-time and then a Ronaldo second half hat-trick won it for me.

    Greenhawk hacked down a player clean through towards the end and had a man sent off and after when i sent a message saying good game i got no reply!!!

    Tis only a silly game lads!!!:confused:

    Are gameweek 5 matches going ahead if you have played all your gamweek 4 ones?

    Yes, fire away, people can post them here as many people would be posting what would be their GW 3 games.

    I just want to finish this league, get the new one sorted and start anew. I've learned alot about running leagues, I know who to invite and, most importantly, what doesn't work.

    I would have replied if I knew it would hurt your feelings if I didnt!
    To be fair i tried to win the ball with that tackle, as I did the other countless times you just ran with Ronaldo from the half way line (as im sure anyone else here that played you knows what I mean). The only difference is that one was a bit late. Anyone else that played me here knows that im not a dirty player. And are you not the person that quit against Marshjem when you were 5-0 down? Pot, kettle and black are words that come to mind.

    Ha, ha sore loser or what!!!! All aboard the Ronaldo bandwagon!!!! :rolleyes:

    I duly noted on this very site that i made an error in judgement of playing a game while i was drunk against Marshjem so therefore don't have too explain that!!!

    Your tears just make me stronger!! :pac:

    Gameweek 5

    MackerelMan 1 Reganovski 4

    My connection died after half time so I sent Reganovski a message asking did he want to leave the result at what it was when the game ended and he agreed.

    Your right it is only a game so theres no need for pettiness. I apologise for my part. It shouldnt overshadow the fact that it was a close game and in fairness by focusing on ronaldo i didnt do the rest of your play justice.

    Ya man, no bother at all!!

    Appologies about the jibe at the end of my last comment but i was just having a bit of banter!

    Great game all the same and best of luck with your remaining games.

    Sorry Mackerel, forgot to put question marks with my response. Could we have continued from where we were? I didn't think u could, if we couldve I wouldve been up for that!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,237 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    Two scoreless draws for me last night against 2 very good players. I'm happy to take 2 points from these fixtures.

    The lag didn't help the flow of either game. Knackerdwarf's Inter played me off the field for most of it and it would have been a travesty had I snatched a late Berbatov goal. Ron Burgendee's Barcelona played a great defensive game, but I don't think either of us threatened the other too much.

    I'm thinking I may scrape into the Premier League, but I need better performances in my remaining games.

    I'd like to get a little feedback from people on a few things. Please PM me the answers or post here. While I'm happy with the following, I'd like to hear everyones opinion.


    1) The games currently last 7 mins a side. While I do not wish to decrease the length, would you like to see longer games? If so, how long?

    2) We are currently playing 5-6 league games per week. With a proper fixture list in place at the start of the season, do you feel that we can maintain this pace? It is my opinion that we play 3 league games per week, in addition to any other competitions being run in tandem with the league (league cup, divisional cup etc).

    3) The idea has always been to have 2 leagues of 14-16 teams. Do people wish to play each other once or twice?

    4) I am planning for a season to run approximately 9 weeks? How does that sound?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,110 ✭✭✭Y2J_MUFC


    Meh, I would do this in a PM, but.....

    7 per side is perfect. Its not too short and its not too long. The longer each game runs the higher the chance of someone losing connection and the league table not being very accurate. 7 is long enough for someone having a bad game to sort themselves out, without dragging on too long.

    With fixtures, 3 is fine. That would be around ~15 mins per game, three times per week, give around another 15 mins for waiting for opponents to come online, that around an hour per week not including cups. Thats loads, as some weeks people may be busy some weeks and have less times, etc. Don't want it to become a chore...

    Once. Twice is a lot of hassle, and the more the league drags on, the more people may lose interest.

    Probably the first time I've ever played well defensively, so sorry about that! I couldn't find a way to get behind your defense so nil-nil was probably the best I could have got.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 417 ✭✭mika27


    I agree with all Y2J's answers but for question 2 I would suggest we play more than 3 fixtures in weeks 1 and 2 because it might take more than a week to get you're last 3 or 4 games played because you might not be able to get online at the same time as your opponent. So if we play more games at the start it will make up for this.

    BassmanMurph85 1 - 0 Dave7G
    BassmanMurph85 3 - 1 IrishWolverine


    I also agree with the above answers.

    Another suggestion if I may...just to pick up on what Mika said....

    How about we extend the season by one week at the end. This week could be solely used to catch up on any games you may have missed out on.

    (ie: Someone was on holidays for the week in Southern Yemen and they couldn't get online to play you - this game then gets moved to the final "extra" week of the season - just PM the league admin to inform them)

    That also saves hassle for whoever is making up the fixtures. By default any missed game goes to the last week, there's no saying:

    "Right you two, you missed your game last week, play it next week instead", "but I can't play next week you hairy bollocks...." on a case by case basis, which would be a pain in the hole....
