    Does it say something about the game that we're few weeks into season and thread only created now. No boards league etc..

    apologies...i organised it the last few seasons, but RL has me by the scrotum at the moment and I dont have time to organise it this season (I did highlight it towards the end of last season to see if anybody was willing to organise it, but there were no takers :( )


    also...anybody seen fewi in the last while? is he still alive - or did he close his boards ac or something???

    New to the game still, started out with the lowest CSR by about 10,000 in my group in Div3, but I've beaten both teams ahead of me away, and beat one of them at home. With the relevant bonus points I should manage to stay up this season. Happy out.

    used to be involved myself organising but as you say RL takes over. but it definitely a sign, I barely log in these days and just have team ticking over.

    the revamp might attract more attention, I think the game is sitting between two groups. it is a bit too technical and time consuming for the causal player and not technical enough for the "nerds" among us!

    used to have a spreadsheet to assess opposition etc and pick tactics. but they changed the tactics to quarters etc and that was that!

    since then I have really not been active at all.

    Just tipped here....fairly quiet. #tumbleweed

    Pretty much identical story myself....I've even let my premium status lapse. Log on briefly on a Friday to set tactics and thats that. I even had a spreadsheet for tracking youth development (training received, games played etc) but that's long since stagnant. I still train for the U20s, but they seem to be strugglin a bit these days too.

    Wonder will the Rugby World Cup bring in increased traffic? I seem to remember a bit of a surge of interest in 2011!

    I remember last World Cup there was 9200 after it how times have changed. Hopefully it will pick up

    At least stick around to see the revamp, might invigorate you again. Or just save money and have a mad dash to win everything in 5 years time

    This is kind of what I am doing, won DIV III easily enough and into the final now. limited my spending but the question is, hang around DIV III picking up prize money and see what the revamp is like.

    probably go to DIV II again and get whipped back down as don't pay enough attention:pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,178 ✭✭✭crisco10


    Into the Div 2 final, having 1-clicked the season. Not sure how long this can last.

    Anyways, another 2nd in Div 2 I reckon.
