Okay, it's about time we get this thing started. Anyone got an idea for a cup format that we can do in less time than usual?
I'm in! how about a league and the old school way of doing it (i.e. we post the results here so no-one has to go and find them!)

That's a good idea, but it's not that much work. But as we can start in week 8 at the earliest we can't do the "regular" setup with 1 group where each team plays each other and then a play off round after the group phase. Or we play with only 10 teams or something.

Akots
Aggie
BC
Shabba

If we start next week, how many games are there?
apparnetly I am in. When do we start? coming midweek?
Shabbaman

Coming week sounds a bit soon, as I've already booked a match (as probably more of you did). Week after that, 10th of march?
I suggest we paly a halve league 5 matches each.
Ooops... The thread name was so cunfusing that I only read it now, after accepting another challenge...

Confusing... ;)
I just started looking for an opponent in Mongolia when I recalled we were starting this week. Anyone who can do some fixtures quickly? If we add in 1 empty spot we can compensate for Aggie's wrong fixture. Or we just recruit Aggie's opponent for the cup ;)
I will look at making some fixrues tonight if it is still needed.

I suck at fixtures more than any of you but still have a question. Why I play Shabba twice and don't play you at all? And you play BCLG twice? Never mind though, I'm fine either way.

That's to increase the difficulty for you ;)
okey doke, so i should arrange a friendly for next week?

That seems to be wrong. I will look at that saturday and figure out how to fix it.
Clearly I have been slightly preoccupied by the fact that 30% of my direct colleagues were fired wednessday. Still get the freindly arrranged for coming week.

Damn. I thought you had only 1 colleague left, how does 30% work with fractions here? No, no joking around, that's not good news. On the upside, they still haven't fired you.

On the downside I also do not get 10 month-salaries severence pay.
presumably though you still get a months salary every month which is a bit of a bonus?

Well, considering they just fired most of his coworkers he'd actually have to do some actual work to get paid. I'm not sure Arne can cope with such a massive change at his age...
oh yeah, i forgot hattrick isn't billable hours in the real world.
well recently we are able to reach hattrick again from the office network. So i can actually play hattrick and be at work. This must be the efficiency improvement our manager is talking about.
I think they will pay my salary untill I resign. What in a perfect world would be somenwhere this year, but unfortunately it is not a perfect world.
What, are you planning to give up your 10 months severance?
well, you only qualify for severence pay if you actually get fired and they can not prove you are incompetent. And since I know I am not getting fired, I do not qualify.
First I will go on Holliday
bit of a massacre there shabba!
4-2 to the United in the end! sorry about the injuries!
Is there a volunteer that wants to keep score or do I need to appoint one?
Shabbaman
21-03-2010, 12:53
sorry about the injuries!
Don't worry, those were regular substitutes.
OK, since nobody volunteered to keep score, I will appoint a volunteer.
BCLG, You are our volunteer to keep score!
Good luck with that!
If folk post them in this thread then i'll update it but i'm rammed with work for the next two weeks so don't really have the time to go searchin
You can also just pick a winner at the end. That is also fine with me, I will not be there at the end so I will certainly not do it.

Akots injured Bing! Shame on him! [:(!]
You should not have fielded the old man. He can barely run on the field. Anyhow, sorry, I guess he'll never recover being 34 years old and such.
Shabbaman

He's a legend! The end of an era!!!1!
Put him a monument on your field and dance around it at night. [evil] Sorry, did not mean to be mean.

Congrats to Akots for a nice win.
Aggie, you better lose so you can claim TAFKATBCA without having to count the GA.
I got lucky this season for some reason.

I've not actually won that for awhile which is quite surprising. I'm giving the fellas a pep talk to see if i can sneak into second!

I'm sorry, but I just bought myself a nice team.......
Congrats to Akots!
Shabba: 10-19
Aggie: 2-13
I need to win with a three goal margin to avoid TAFCATBCA.
oh :( if you've just bought a shiny new team then I'm not going to win because the B-side is playing as i have a qualifier this weekend.

Well the cup starts next week so i doubt it!
