I just discovered that I lost to the number 3, who picced, with a excellent v.s. inadequate midfield. Screwed by the match engine in the worst way imaginable. My opponent actually apologized.

some idiots do that, I would just grin about it and make a nasty press announcement.

I have had a total of 4 matches like this during this season. Last one was a draw with me having 87% chance of winning (270 starts vs 216 stars) according to HTMS.

I also had three such matches, costing me the championship (probably) and a decent cup run.

Won 0-10 vs a bot.

As the other matches went rather bad for me, the situation is the following:
I am 4th, I can get to 2nd with a win, but can be 7th if I lose. Playing the 7th placed team at home (we support each othe rand know each other for quite some time)

If I lose, I will probably be 7th. I had hoped that qualifiers were secured until now...

That sucks Ynnek.

I had the luck that for me the matches turned out exactly how I would wish them. I won vs a BOT and the nr 1 Draxido played 5-5 while leading 4-1 after 71 minutes (with 89% chance to win the game). This team now needs to play a team fighting to stay up (a team I lost from last week). Draxido will probably lose that away game. I have to play the team that pulled of the 5-5 stunt away. They are now certain to end 5th or 6th. So if I were them I would PiC this game in order to have a nice TS.

I'm now in the lead, 1 point ahead and above the direct promotion line. I will probably MOTS the away game.

Lost 1-0 against a much better team, not bad. I;m in 6th position and 6 points ahead of the number 7 position. So I;m safe for this season. My defence is improving so I'm pretty sure I'll be able to do better next season. My guess is they'll start to hate me for playing defense/CA only but that's not my problem.

I won as expected against a bot.

The real good news is that I'm now 6th since the former team ranked 6th ranked lost.

If I can now win my game against #5, I'll play the qualifier.

Normaly, he should PIC since he has a qualifier comming up. Therefore, I may be tempted to play normal.

arne1 · 03-03-2011, 15:32

picced and lost 3-1, will pic again next week to keep some sort of TS and than mots away the peace of shit trying to promote out of V.

Aggie · 07-03-2011, 08:21

Motsed my last away match and won 1-4. With that the championship and direct promotion is secured.

What's more: I land in a league were my team -with the current strength- should be able to survive. One of the teams ending up in my league is Ontouchables BVO, champion of NL three seasons ago but now restructuring. Looks like I shouldn't end last and that's a bonus.
