    So are we playing all games WNWIM? I would prefer not to because I am out of the cup and in a bot league, so I would like a few games TNT so my players don't forget how to:D

    Ok, so I am on a rest week for the first round of the Board Cup.

    Anyone else in the same boat and want a friendly ?


    Team Name = dead hard fcukers


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


    Yep I'll send you a request now

    Just so people know in advance...

    It seems likely/probable that we may have to push the first round back a week. The reason for this is that right now we have nine teams who haven't accepted their fixtures as of right now, and I think it unlikely that 3/4 of entrants will accept their fixtures by Friday.

    With this in mind, it might make the most sense to re-jig the groups a little bit and push things back a week - what do people think?

    Right, so Im at least a division behind everyone else so Im naturally going to lose all my games and im just using this as practice. But in the cup would it be better to go WNWIM as Im going to lose?

    I'd guess its roughly half and half, split between those in Div 3 and Div 4, so Iwouldn't get too worried. What you need to do is pick the games you can win, LTNT them, and WNWIM the rest, just like any other league. Plan ahead, aim for maybe 3 wins out of the 6.

    It's all about the bounce of the ball, sure anything can happen :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 165 ✭✭DBraithwaite

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

    is this the only cup on boards or is there other cups i could enter?


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


    No this is the only cup.

    What I mean by sub is you'll still get to play every game you'll just replace some inactive team before the competition starts

    What do you mean by inactive like a bot team?


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


    Yea, or a team that the manager hasn't logged on in a while

    All places are gone I'm afraid, and there will be no more 'replacements'. ;)

    The good news is it will only be a few months until the next one starts.

    There are still a few teams to accept fixtures

    If I have to re-jig the fixtures again then people will have to re-accept them etc. I'd rather just leave it as is and get the fecking thing started.

    Also, I expect the fixtures to be completely accepted.

    Fair enough
    Sorry DB
