    Mar-z if you have a fixture list made out for Div.iii, email it to me, and ill send out the remaining requests too all the teams, and ill keep record of the league table..

    If we could get 1 team from each of the other 3 Divisions to do the same it would cut the work load down immensely!

    You have to change the week while posting fixtures :D

    I've deleted the week 2, fixtures that were put in week 1 for division 4.

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,225 ✭✭✭mar-z


    Try in the first minute Fewcifur :cool:

    Need to get a couple of wins before I go away.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,993 ✭✭✭Trippie


    ugh, just logged on. just 28-0 nil down after 13 mins. easy game obviously


  • Registered Users Posts: 489 ✭✭satory


    Looks like I could loose my first game against Rath Rugby Club :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 458 ✭✭bossa_nova


    Good first half for me so far 12-12 against blind side :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,238 ✭✭✭Gelio


    Somehow winning by five??? Can't last


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 458 ✭✭bossa_nova


    gah missing loads of penos, would be so much closer than it is now :(

    Wouldn't worry about it too much, DIV IV has a very mixed bag since its brand new, the top teams will filter up in other divisions but you're stuck with some old veterans of the game! pick out the ones you think you can beat... ie the ones with similar squads to yours. some in your division will be untouchable unfortunately.

    Have they brought in the intensity thing where if you are way ahead the intensity is dropped to reduce the scores?

    Just wondering as I was way ahead of Parrish 39-0 and half time and in second half it has gone to 49-19? seems bit odd that all of a sudden they'd start hammering me when I dominated the match up to about 60mins.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,225 ✭✭✭mar-z


    Don't know, but similar happening to me against the Death Squad. 37-0 up with 10 remaining and they scored a couple. Could easily be a coincidence though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,108 ✭✭✭johnnysmack


    Sounds bit like too much of a coincidence to me as i scored half as many points in second half as i did in first.

    A closer game going by the stats than the score suggests....


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,542 ✭✭✭eoferrall


    yup, did some digging on the changes since season 12 started and got this:

    2. We will be trailing a small core change to make the Match Engine more realistic. This will mainly affect unrealistic score lines in lop-sided games.
    3. The current changes which were on trial for friendlies only, (with the exception of the weight modifiers as mentioned above) which were supposed to be released to competitive matches for season 12.5; will remain in the trial until season 13 when they will be released to competitive.

    So yes, they are trying to reduce big score it seems. again putting in changes that have little or no impact on the game.

    While it has little or no impact on the result. It makes the game more realistic. It might also have a positive effect on the boards league where we still have some unbalanced leagues, noone like 100-0 losses. I also hope that it if put into the league that it will save energy if your well ahead.

    If brought into leagues could have big impacts on some teams. Couple of seasons ago it went to points difference between me an Orizio for relegation in a season where we both had big losses.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,542 ✭✭✭eoferrall


    Yeah I know it will have an impact, but I would just MUCH rather time was put into coding this ME2 than these small changes.

    These are the type of changes I would call polishing when the game is 90% certain/unchanging/finalised.

    Just there is this impending big changes down the line it seems (tho seems a LONG way off since seems no closer than when first muted) and I would prefer the big changes to come and then polish. like a whole new match engine, could change how a lot of teams design their squad.

    Sorry for ranting about this in a few places now. just seems the priorities are wrong.
