Waiting on my team, applied last thursday, still nothing.
That's harsh man. I got my team next day.
How long does it say you have to wait?

Maybe lots of people in the Nederlands like football or somink

apparently people who applied 9th of december got teams yesterday. But technically I applied friday (it was 0:30) So I' m guessing I'll have a team tuesday.

When I applied 700 people were wainting, after that the line has grown everyday. 1155 people waiting now

ProPain Nederland waiting team

We’ll be five any day now. We need 8 teams to organize a friendly cup. I think we could schedule it in the near future and see if we get the needed number of Civ players by then. If not I’m sure we can find some other guys.

3-3, but i played it calm...
That would have been ok, if i didn't have my top player injured, and if i didn't get a red card.

Last time i PIC-ed i had a bad injury as well. Crappy game

Make that a 4-0 v.s. the number two of the league. Good times! Bad times: 2 injured, makes a total of 5 in the sick bay...

Yeah, injuries are a pain but you have to live with that as well. I see that only Shabba uses the 3-5-2 strategy. Guys, playing with 3 inner mids is one of the most powerful strategies. Unless you have a strong reason not to, I advise you to switch on that just once to see the difference.

I intend to give you some advice on playing and I would also like to share with you the testing that I’m working on so that one could determine:
-> individual star ratings based on player abilities and positioning;
-> team compartment ratings based on player abilities, positioning, tactic, team attitude and orders;
-> chance of win/draw/loss and how those can be maximized with a given squad.

I guess that if we get answers to these things, games would be much easier to tackle and we could make informed decisions. I tried to get some help from the community but it seems that most players do not want to know that because it would spoil their ‘magic’.

Now, I’m thinking in Civ terms, would you want to know the chances of your 3 Knights to kill a stack of 2 fortified muskets on a hill or not? Should you wait for another knight or charge without having any idea of the outcome? I definitely want to know or at least have a rough idea because the way hattrick is designed with hidden sub-levels for any visible level, you will never know.

As a quick example from recent personal experience, I managed to beat my division leader this game due to careful planning and a bit of luck. Most probable outcomes for this match were according to my calculations: FC Boldesti – Sticla 1-2; 1-3; 1-4; 2-2; 2-3; 2-4; 3-2; 3-3 and 3-4 for a total probability of 50% for one of these results given no special events.

Immediately after the game, the manager of FC Boldesti called me lucky bastard and said he’ll kick my ass bigtime next match. One of the other managers in the division said that I’m clearly the favorite to win this season and my friend asked my why was I worried for not winning when I had such a clear victory. I was calm knowing that this result was pretty much expected.

What do you think of this?

I’ll also be happy to provide specific advice on your team issues.
