    Ok so. Do people want to wait until after the World Cup has concluded for the league to be set up?

    I see no reason why they can't be run concurrently.

    I might stick a sign up thread up this evening and let it run till the end of the tournament anyways. Be ready to launch into it after the current tournament concludes.

    Thoughts?

    I'd prefer to wait until the WC is done.

    Ok yeah sorry I got caught in the midst of two thoughts there.

    I meant post sign up thread now, and run it until end of WC.

    Then close sign up thread when final is being played and have it ready to run after the conclusion of the WC.

    No idea why I said concurrently there.

    Team Cage progress to the final.

    A great game worth checking out if you didn't see it live. Well done to all (except for me for almost cocking it up) for a very entertaining game.

    How does 3rd place work, that game could be be just 1 team?

    Then they get 3rd automatically?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,941 ✭✭✭osh

    Actually would the the looser of this game not be the 3rd place team?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    Yeah, the rounds seem a bit messed up alright.
    it kosh loses both game 10 and 11, they have to play with themselves :p

    And if we win we play in both games :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    3rd place is only needed if Kosh dont win this next game.

    So if free lose they play kosh again for 3rd. If kosh lose they come 3rd because no one to play? Would we not just call this the 3rd place playoff with winner advancing to the final and looser coming 3rd?

    Yeah that seems neater. Grand.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    Why are we playing again?
    At this stage we've played 4 games, which is more than any other team except Brian
    We've won 3, which only team Cage can match.
    I mean just give us the cup and everyone can have their weekend back :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,263 ✭✭✭robyntmorton


    I think I have the tournament chart accurate. Basically, winner of the losers bracket has to beat Cage twice to win.

    Nah, we are the only undefeated team in the thing sure. We will take the cup now. Foregorn conclusion like.

    Nah there will only be 1 game. The game currently underway to determine the best of the teams that have lost a game. They play the undefeated team, and winner of that match wins the whole thing.

    That 13th game is for an outcome where everyone has lost a game or two i think. Dont think we need a two legged final.

    Ye hear that? When you beat Pter remind him that he didn't want a two legged final, and that even though you both lost only 1 game, you're clearly the better team ;)

    Hey, there is no need to hate PJ and I because we are the personification of excellence.

    If anything, you should be thanking us for being so good.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    Realistically I don't know how much play time I'll have starting from 10 minutes from now with a bunch of kids parties, mothers day and apologising for how mothers day turned out. Sorry, you might have to wait for your cup for a little while longer yet.

    Im grand to pause for the weekend. Im not playing your current game so ye can sort it out between ye, and let me know when you want PJ and I to deliver your whoopin'.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,941 ✭✭✭osh


    No bother, we'll pause til Monday.

    I'll generate a new board then as this one will time out.


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    Gimme a shout on Monday and ill put the new board in the OP of the current thread.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,036 ✭✭✭Guffy


    O final should def be 2 legged ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,941 ✭✭✭osh


    So team kosh out for revenge against team cage in the final after a narrow win!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,941 ✭✭✭osh


    I'd second a two legged final. Maybe best of 3.

    How could a 2 legged final work, I thought that was a running joke?
