Cube Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 Conspire all you like against me! The end of this season will be like a walk in the park. You guys are all ... errrr ... what's the right term ... douche bags. There's no conspiracy. I just misread Haden's press release. I thought that he was challenging me. So I built up a team that would beat him. It'd just be an added bonus if I beat you and Dyson.

You guys are all ... errrr ... what's the right term ... douche bags. You know you love all the attention really! I havent been dirty tricking you though just trying to spice the end of the season up by encouraging cube to get back into the game.
Mr_Odwin Posted October 5, 2008 Author Posted October 5, 2008 Dyson is dirty trickin' me though. Mainly because he is scared.
Mr_Odwin Posted October 7, 2008 Author Posted October 7, 2008 My best player has been injured by a dirty trick - out until the start of November. Feeling sad.
Dyson Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 Gosh darn it, who on earth would do such a thing?
Mr_Odwin Posted October 7, 2008 Author Posted October 7, 2008 Gosh darn it, who on earth would do such a thing? You shall pay by losing the league. My winning ways go on undeterred.
Haden Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 wow what the Moogle just saved Oddy. He will surely win the league now unless 64s goes mental. You should do a 4-2-4 formation gaggle with all out attack although im sure oddy will do something similar. I tried to do a 2-4-4 formation against noodle haha ah well 4-0 away isnt bad. Well was nice knowing you dyson!
MoogleViper Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 Haha take that Dyson. "Chad McFadden enters a charity karaoke competition. His performance is absolutely terrible – completely out of tune and out of time. He is laughed off the stage. However, hardly anyone realises that Chad McFadden is a big practical joker, and he actually performed badly on purpose for a dare. His form is therefore unaffected." Oh...kay.
Mr_Odwin Posted October 10, 2008 Author Posted October 10, 2008 Wowzer. The bitter defeat sweetened by the defeat of Dyson. Why do I get the awful feeling that I'll finish third? Dirty Tricks have killed my form and injured my best player. Cool.

Mr_Odwin Posted October 17, 2008 Author Posted October 17, 2008 Last match of the season today. Team is all set up. I have Noodle at my place. Just give me the trophy now!
jayseven Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Last match of the season, and in the spirit of things I ACTUALLY MADE SOME TACTICS AND STUFF ZOMG! Currently 5th (lol) and need only a draw to maintain this position. Odwin I'd like to apologise to you and the rest of the peeps for not giving this my full attention - but I'd like to play again next season if that's ok? Shorty can bust my chops to keep me focused.
Cube Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Yay! Another win! I think I'll give the next season a proper go. Although I'd like there to be just a league this time. The cup made the season drag on for a bit too long.
Roostophe Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Finally, the season is over. And I won. Now I will finally get some com-pah-tish-shun.
Dyson Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Heh, I'm glad I didn't win the last game to be demolished 6-3 in the final and finish 3rd anyway. That would have sucked. 3rd place..now the tough decision remains; do I play another season as reigning double champions, which has to mean I'm the best Xpert captain in the leagues...or quit whilst I'm ahead? That depends. This game is made on other users' input, if people drop out half way through a season and lose interest this gets boring fast. I'll definitely play again now I know I've got the time for it, but only if the people that participate next time actually do so. Grats to Oddy, though, and an awesome end to the fifth season, so close! Anyone of three of us could have won it in the last 2 games, it was rather nail biting tbh!
gaggle64 Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Ah well, I suppose Oddy suffering yet another unlikely defeat was my only hope. Bloody close though. I'll get it next season!
Dyson Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 No chance mate, it's about time I won the bloody league. Oh well, exclusive cup winning bragging rights are mine..
Mr_Odwin Posted October 17, 2008 Author Posted October 17, 2008 Ah ha! Winner! Woo! Now for the Change Report. I think my youth are looking good for it and the rest of the team are reasonably solid. Next season is a two-league games a week affair. The cup was nice to try out, but I think it's better without it. The season is quicker and more dynamic. I'm not sure we have the numbers for two leagues and new recruits seem to die off very quickly. How would everyone feel about a single league structure?
Dyson Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 It's a shame we'll have to pull out a second league; I think the thrill of avoiding relegation or achieving promotion is half the reason you'd play. Finishing last has no effect otherwise. I think we need to work on recruiting new players, get out in to HWYD thread or signatures or whatever. Not spam, but just try and get new people in to it. I wouldn't like to drop the 2 league structure, I think it'd kill a lot of the tension in the game, and mean if you were a low performer you'd get bored instead of trying to save yourself and leave the team.
Mr_Odwin Posted October 17, 2008 Author Posted October 17, 2008 Okay, I agree with you. Gonna keep: OddyOddyOddy FC Dysonism F.C Zimz Crew FC The Sixty-Four... Team Cubed RoostopheSuzum... Emo Blades Hadens Legends Happenstance FC Moogles Vipers Ankh-Morpork Shore Tea Utd. Complete Domst... One more team (I think darksnowman was well up for it last time but just missed the deadline) would mean two leagues of seven - which means two teams wouldnt play on each match day. Three more teams would mean two leagues of eight - a great number. I wish some ladies would join, just to mix it up. If we count on darksnowman then we need two others.
Roostophe Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 I don't really want there to be just the one league, as you lose the thrill of promotion/relegation. But if new players don't stay, then there would be no point and there would just be only us regulars left. There has to be more members who want to play this. If only some of the old players rekindled their interest and gave it another go, that would be class, but fat chance of that happening. Maybe one of us could whip up a makeshift sig that we all could have. As just a small bit of text saying "N-E's Xpert11 Football League" with a link isn't going to do much good. It could be something that will catch the eye of any potential players, and could probably remind anybody who constantly forgets to play to remember.
Haden Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Congrats Oddy even though we had a bitter war this season you deserved the win. Very dissapointing season for me need to make sure im in the top half next season although I can see that being very tough but thats half the fun hopefully the change report will be kind. Definatly try and get two leagues going. Out of your list is threezok not playing anymore? I thought he said he was taking a vacation but coming back or am I wrong? Also domstercool hasnt played for years and years has he? Again I might be wrong. Anyway congrats to Oddy and the Villan and Dyson!
