Boards.ie FIFA 10 league - Season 5 (Rules/Team Picks)

Mr Moon

Ok, so after a month of the game being out and a couple of weeks of organising it. We are ready to start picking our teams for season 5.

Please read the rules below so as not to be confused if you get punished for something you didn't know about.

OUTLINE:
The league has been designed from the ground up to ensure that the vast majority of games are a close match. The league is divided into 2 separate leagues...

The Premiership
The Championship

Within each league teams are unique, therefore there can only be one Manchester United and one Chelsea etc


LEAGUE FORMAT
Each team will play each other team twice. Each game consists of 2 x 7 minute halves. The fixtures will be posted here each Friday can also be viewed on the League Republic website at the start of the season and the fixtures will be divided into a number of gameweeks. Currently, there are 3 fixtures per week. Players must ensure that they complete their fixture list by the end of the gameweek. You may contact opponents via Boards or on Xbox Live.

At the end of each game, make a note of the result and post them in the Results thread. These results will be added to the main result post and league tables will be updated on a regular basis. To avoid confusion both players must confirm the result, if one player posts the results a “thanks” acknowledgement from the other player is enough to agree with the result both players must show some form of confirmation with the posted result.

END OF SEASON
At the end of every season, 3 teams from the top division will be relegated to the lower division and 3 teams from the bottom division will get promoted to the top division.

RULES
In order to maintain the league, a number of rules have been laid out. Any violations of this code of conduct can be sent to the league coordinator (Mr Moon) and each violation will be investigated.

1) Disconnections:
No player is allowed to intentionally disconnect for any reason. Any disconnections during a league game must be made known to the league coordinator (Mr Moon). However, accidental disconnections do occur and the rules have been written to take this into account. If a player disconnects while they are winning, a rematch is immediately scheduled. However, if a player disconnects while drawing or losing the game, a 3-0 victory is awarded to the other player. Each player is responsible for their own connection.

2) Last man tackling:
Fifa 10 is a soccer simulation and while slide tackling is encouraged when needed, intentional attempts to take out the last man (an attacking player that only has the keeper to beat) will not be tolerated. A defender is allowed to slide in from the side as there is a good chance that he will win the ball. However, when someone slides in from directly behind (from the 5-7 o'clock positions) and the striker is between the defender and the ball, this will not be tolerated. Players like this can usually be identified by a low foul/card ratio.

3) Red/Yellow Cards:
This season we are being strict on this as a number of players last season picked up a lot of cards. Every 5 yellows you pick up during the season will result in a 1 point deduction to your final league standing, every red after the first will result in the same. We are allowing one red card as sometimes it’s an accident and bad timing but twice won’t be tolerated unpunished. We will check this at the end of the season on the league stats for each player and adjust their finishing points accordingly.

4) Settings:
While this rule is unenforcable, each player is expected to have all assistance settings on default.
