Mini Tournament to Finish Off Madden 12

SantryRed

Well lads, since the franchise is now done, is anyone interested in a mini tournament to finish off Madden 13?

We've got 3 weeks to go so it'll be either straight knockout or a group stage first followed by semi finals. All depends on the interest to how we do it.

Let me know who's interested and we'll move on from there

Sign me up!

Yeah I think a straight knockout would be pretty good, something we've never done before.

BigBadRob83

Yeah count me in for it, straight knock out would be fun FA cup style.

Maybe replays instead of OT to keep Santry happy?

Berty44

Great idea Ben

I hope to be going away on holidays next few weeks so better to give it a miss for me.

matthew8

I wish I could take part, but I'm away until the 15th. If whoever would be drawn against me is willing to wait I'll take part.

Raoul

Yeah, count me in too.

etloveslsd

I'm gonna pass, take a few weeks off from madden and play some games that I have been neglecting.....and the missus I suppose, probably should spend some time with her.

adrian522

I'm in .. away though from Saturday 11th to thursday 16th so if that's an issue i'll sit it out...

SantryRed

Only 2 more people needed!

What way do people wanna pick teams? By draft system or you can be whoever?

davetherave

I'll join in to make up the numbers

SantryRed

Can't edit my OP any more but Dave your in. Just one more person needed!!

il play

Be happy with draft system, give us a practice for Madden 13 team draft

SantryRed

Ok lads, We're gonna run it by draft system using Rob's power rankings.

Meaning the draft order is:

1. Davetherave
2. Lukebray
3. Luka Immense Munchies
4. BigBadRob83
5. Raoul
6. Adrian522
7. DangerDave
8. Me

Dave, when you're on name your team and then it'll be Luke's turn. Once the draft has been complete I'll use the random number generator to do out the QFs and the SFs straight away

No rush

adrian522

Davetherave, you around tonight around 8 or 9?

General Question, Are you using the community or something? 8 min quarters?

SantryRed

Balls yeah, completely forgot about that. Standard rules apply with 20 sec accelerated clock and 8 minute quarters. Haven't set up a community so just play through an unranked game

No, sorry. Have training tonight from 1900-2130. Could be 11ish by the time I get home. Any other time all week is good though.

adrian522

Maybe Thursday night around 7.30 or so?

Or Friday around the same time (possibly be a bit late, playing Ben at 6:15).

I'm away then from Saturday to Thursday.

Whatever suits. Some guys won't be in it and I don't know the password. Can you remember it Adrian?

adrian522

Well we could use the friendlies community either. Think they are all setup the same.

Good game Nerd, thought after your first play, a 60 yard pass to DeSean Jackson, that I was in for a long evening. You played well but were unlucky that some of your receivers couldn't hold on to the ball, Jackson and Maclin both had problems. My run game was quite good today when it got going, one play in particular worked very well when you blitzed to the left and unfortunately for you let me run up the right and get a 30 yard TD.

Good game, see you in Madden 13.

Edit - It definitely wasn't a hammering!!!

The_Gatsby

hey Dave, how's 2:30 tomorrow sound? I should be around at 2 and I'll try get on for then but say 2:30 to be safe:)
