    Got my second league win today against Reddogwarriors, felt I had to TNT to beat him considering our positions in the table, he only went normal in the end so won fairly handy, wish he told me, have Open Side in the cup next and my team are knackered

    I think Openside will go bot on Wednesday or Thursday; its been 8 weeks since they logged in. Check it, you could be in luck.

    EDIT: Just checked. I make it they'll go bot at 7.16pm on Wednesday evening according to the rules!

    Open Side will be an aul great white removed from the sea, the crazy Scottish chancer!
    Reckon he misses the banter? I know there was somewhat of a "wtf?" moment when he arrived in Div IV with a Div I worthy team :)

    I dont think they will go bot straight away. I think there is some batch job that runs daily that botifies (?) teams. I guess it depends on when that job runs:rolleyes:

    heres hoping that if u do lose to him I'll get the bot in the next round (if i win) :D

    It would be a great win!

    Hard to pin down because he always seems to be changing up his team with new (old) blood.

    Eitherway, if he's not logging in then he'll be using the exact same tactics and his lads will probably be prrrrretty tired, so a lucky draw regardless.

    Nice win by Kilsough South tonight too!

    ah - i'd have a certain amount of sympathy for davy...something similar happened to me in a semi final of league a couple of years ago


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


    Was there something a few seasons ago brought in where if a team goes bot in the first half of the season they'll hang around until the first round of league fixtures are finished (i.e. end of week 7) so the league isn't messed up by some teams playing a human team and others a bot? Although I can't find it anywhere now.

    I'm hoping they don't go bot before the weekend. I don't want Gufingolfini to get a free win :(

    i made that suggestion...i dont think it was accepted. the reasoning was something along the lines of it preventing new managers joining in higher leagues

    They are just one of the 3 teams I was targetting finishing above, it's annoying as hell that they get 5 points out of a game I threw. :( Still it's luck of the draw and I'll just have to stay ahead anyway!

    Yeah as Corny said Openside are now bot so it didn't get accepted (or at least not yet implemented).

    One more question, is there not a points deduction for a team going bot? I have seem this as a suggestion though, but again thought it was implemented.
