He's on holidays though, he might not be back for ages..

I need 6 points out of my last 2 games. If I get 4, you might have it on GD. If you get relegated, who will I score own goals against?!

I hope he's gone for a month

You just have to make sure it doesn't go down to that.

I'm only 3 points ahead so 4 points will guarantee you stay up. If you only get 3 points, I'll stay up on goal difference but if it goes down to goal difference, I'll offer you a play-off if it's OK with the organisers?

(just looked back and that 16-2 hiding I gave you wasn't recorded. It was only given as 3-0)

I need Gaz to do me a massive favour against you though. Hopefully Torres scores the winner with the last kick of the game

If he wins, there's serious pressure on you in the last games.

Lamposts · 27-02-2011 11:02PM

3 points so far, I am GOD. Any idea what the craic is with Moose? I'm going away for a week on Weds.. x

Axwell · 27-02-2011 11:30PM

Hes only gone for a few days, you can play the game when you get back.

Kirby · 27-02-2011 11:51PM

I have two games left.

One against moon which will have to wait till he gets back. And one against raheny red. I'm online now if you want to play it.

Oh, and are you aloud update the table axwell?

Axwell · 28-02-2011 12:11AM

Yeah I have access to the tables but hes back tomorrow or Tuesday and has everything in a spreadsheet for recording it so he will update it when he gets back since its only one weeks games.

joe123 · 28-02-2011 12:46AM

Ive only one game left and its against dowdus.

By the way will there be a catch up week for people who have games to play or once this week is done will be pretty much going straight into another season?

SantryRed · 28-02-2011 12:53AM

League 1 still has 2 weeks to go so I'd say so...

Barca(corcaigh) 0-2 Chelski(stan/gaz)

easily the least enjoyable game Ive played in over 2 seasons of Boards. I dont mind losing, what i do mind is 5-3-2, hoping for the best crossing and LB+Y, Drogba as a CM. it was Hail Mary stuff. watch out championship, your league is about to get less enjoyable...

Jesus the league is becoming a bit of a joke really. It was a bog standard 5-3-2 I played with, no custom tweaking on it... Am I not allowed to pick formations to counter opposing teams? Should we ask the opposition what formation to play and what position to play players in beforehand???

With each season passing the enjoyment of the leagues is being sucked out of them with people complaining about everything and anything. Playing with idiots like Lamposts who celebrates every goal, felt the need to send me a message at half time saying "I am God" then when 3-1 up in the 86th minute decided to head for his own corner flag. If I wanted to deal with that kinda stuff I would play ranked matches instead of this!

As CactusMac said in the other thread the original leagues were the best, no messing, no idiots, everyone just looking to have a few friendly games!

gaz15 · 28-02-2011 02:36AM

Just for the crack here is the very first rulebook for the first season!

It all starts tomorrow! The fixture list will be posted tonight, and the password for the leaue will be posted here tomorrow morning.

Good luck everyone!

BOARDS.IE FIFA 2009 LEAGUE SYSTEM

Season 1: Boards Qualifying League

Introduction:
The Boards Qualifying League (BQL) is the first in a series of leagues organized exclusively for the users of the boards.ie forum who possess an Xbox360 games console.

Outline:
-The BQL will run for a period of 6 weeks. Each week will run from 9 am Friday of one week to 9 am Friday of the following week.
-The league will commence Friday November 14 at 9 am.
-Each player will play a maximum of 4 games per game week. It is up to each individual player to make sure that they do not exceed this limit.
-Each team will face each other once. This means players will play approximately 24-26 games, depending on final league numbers.
-Games will last for 14 minutes (7 minutes each half).

Team Selection:
Players are limited to selecting CLUB TEAMS. No national sides are allowed. Players have become accustomed to playing certain club teams, and in order to determine the skill of each player for the purpose of determining rank for subsequent seasons, players can choose whichever club team they wish. Therefore, results will be based on skill and knowledge of the game, and not what team you were assigned to at the start of the league.

From next season onwards, however, team selection will be based on your final standing from season 1 and teams will be unique. This will add balance to all subsequent leagues.

Sportsmanship/Conduct:
By signing up to this league, players are committing to finish all games in the league.

Players are expected up play to the best of their ability, and any collusion by one or more players to alter the natural result of any game/games will not be tolerated.

Games are to be played in good spirit. Any players who feel that their opponents are playing the game in an unsporting manner (constantly taking the last man out, showboating unnecessarily etc) can report that player via PM to myself. All complaints will be treated anonymously.

Players are responsible for their own internet connections. For example, if your connection fails when you are winning 5-0 and you are given a loss as is automatically administered by the FIFA league software, you must accept that result without question.

Disconnecting on purpose due to an impending heavy defeat will not be tolerated.

Any players who are found to be in violation of any of the above rules will not be asked back for future leagues. I reserve the right to not invite a player to subsequent leagues if I judge that they are not upholding the principles of the league (commitment, fair play and friendship).

Promotion/Relegation:
The main goal of the BQL is to rank players based on their ability to play the game. At the end of the season, the top 50% of players will be invited to join the Boards Premiership while the remaining players will be invited to join the Boards Championship.

At the end of the season, new players may ask to join the Boards leagues and others may drop out. New places will be awarded to teams at that time.

Fixtures:
As stated, players will play 4 games each week. The fixture list will be available every Thursday night. Players must adhere to these fixtures and must not play any fixtures outside of those listed. Players may use this forum to arrange game times between each other. Alternatively, players can use the league lobby to find players on their fixture list. However, arranging fixtures beforehand is highly recommended.

Results/Reports:
All results are expected to be posted to the special results thread. This will allow a hassle-free way to track all results and will allow for the formation of a league table. All players are encouraged to write match reports for some of the more exciting games. I will be awarding a prize at the end of the season to the player who does the best job in this respect. Based on these reports alone, I will be choosing the player of the week and the goal of the week. When writing these reports, players are asked to adhere to the usual boards.ie posting rules.

You know calling me an idiot is well out of hand, I skipped watching the goals, I like to celebrate my goals so deal with it and quit being a girl. I will be reporting your post for calling me an idiot as I consider it a personal attack and there's just no need for it. I am God though and don't you forget it. I went to the corner flag for my boy lb y Joe. I wanted to protect the lead because you're so unreal at FIFA. I was gutted my goalkeeper didn't score after he ran the pitch against you. I'm GOD.

Axwell · 28-02-2011 02:51AM

There is no need to proclaim yourself to be GOD or the usual tripe you go on with on the thread either. Theres only so many warnings a person will get before they are booted from the league.

A few of you really need to grow up and play the league in the spirit its meant to be played in or else find yourselves a new league to play in next season.

Fixed. :rolleyes:
