Madden 16 Cup - Bracket, Draft, Discussion Etc

    Please see below for the scheduling and draft positioning for the Madden 16 Cup, which has been randomly generated from Challonge.com:

    23a6ea7460f4d48d7d5cb6b1e050fbd8.png

    As you can see, the draft order for selecting teams is as follows:

    1) Knex
    2) Tripper
    3) Paully
    4) Padraig
    5) Rock
    6) Giffney
    7) Perrin
    8) Pudsy

    Knex, feel free to pick your team whenever you're ready, then fire Tripper a PM to let him know he's up and so on.

    Feel free to start scheduling/playing games as soon as both you and your opponent have each drafted your teams lads.

    Each round of games is a best of 3 series, so everyone involved gets at least 2 competitive games under our usual rules.

    There's probably no point in setting a time limit on games being played, but with the week 1 roster update likely dropping on Tuesday September 15th and subsequently focus turning to our franchise, it'd be great if we could try to get it done and dusted before then.

    Good luck all. :)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,998 ✭✭✭tripperman

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    I've generally played with weaker teams so far and enjoyed it (Texans and Dolphins to name but 2) but like Tripper I'm going to take a different route here and play with a new team.

    I select the Seattle Seahawks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,189 ✭✭✭PADRAIC.M

    No problem mate. Hopefully you get lucky and Madden is the last thing on your mind tonight! :pac:

    "Do you want to come back to mine for a drink?"

    "Sorry love I can't, I've, eh, got to play a stranger on the internet in a game of Madden on the Xbox."

    Let me know sure and we can arrange for after the Ireland game tomorrow or something if not?

    Titans it is Perrin. I'll take the Panthers because I'm a masochist

    Because the madden gods took into account that Heli would be using the Titans in any leagues so adjusted their rating accordingly ;)

    Bills beat the Ravens 21-7 in a game where offense was not pretty to watch, especially the Bills, where i managed a massive 24 yards passing and 30 yards rushing, sweet jesus its even worse when i type it out

    2 Interception TD's won me the game, Ravens were far productive on offense, where they had 196 yards receiving, where the evergreen stevie smith racked up 123 yards with some incredible catching displays.

    Unlucky Padraic, good chatting, and catch you again.

    Seahawks up 7-3 on the Lions halfway through the 2nd quarter but the lag is unbearable so we will try again tomorrow.

    Giff, I'm around most of the day tomorrow (around 10am-5pm and then again after the Ireland match) if that suits? If at all possible you'll probably be much better off getting me during the day as Eircom continue to take the piss with congestion at peak times.

    Is it OK if I switch to a team I haven't used before, and is not yet taken? Thinking the Steelers.

    Sorry about the change, but I was out when I picked my team and didn't put any thought into it, really.

    Also, Pudsy, you available tonight for a game?
