Haden Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Pleased with that win after the embarrising pre season friendly with Moogle. Emos formation 4-2-4 wtf? rofl Oddy is hitting some mighty impressive stats don't think anyone will touch him again still be good to get a top 4 finish. Actually nervous about my next to matches against the new guys they are both doing well.
ReZourceman Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Well done then ReZ, managed to hold Happenstance FC to a draw Teehee thanks. Im happy with the result. Good match. Although another injury! Ahhh!

Anyway Made of Win still staying true to the name. Forgot to bet on myself again. But no matter still got game.
jayseven Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Xpert pools ya git. That's amazing. Shit, I could be SO EFFING RICH if I'd known :P I nearly always get my predictions right. Niiiice!
Roostophe Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 I never get the predicitions right (as in, I never win), plus I ain't a betting man, so I don't really bother. That friendly against Ell did me more harm than good. I won, but I've taken a nice hit in form.
Cube Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 (edited) I'm definitely going down this season. Especially if my players keep playing like trees. Edit: Gah. I've lost the next match. There's only one formation that I can do without using players who don't want to play and have low form....and the damn thing won't let me. "You have chosen a formation that is not allowed!" WTF? One keeper, 10 other player. Since when did it actually matter what formation you used? Edited March 20, 2009 by Cube

One keeper, 10 other player. Since when did it actually matter what formation you used? That is kind of how for my first match I ended up with the 4-2-4 formation, as it was the only formation it would let me do. To find a decent valid formation just hit up the tactics page and pick one from there.

One keeper, 10 other player. Since when did it actually matter what formation you used? Since it would be somewhat silly if you could have, say, 7 forwards Here are the acceptible lineups... 4-5-1 (4 defenders, 5 midfielders, 1 attacker) 4-4-2 (4 defenders, 4 midfielders, 2 attackers) 4-3-3 (4 defenders, 3 midfielders, 3 attackers) 4-2-4 (4 defenders, 2 midfielders, 4 attackers) 5-4-1 (5 defenders, 4 midfielders, 1 attacker) 5-3-2 (5 defenders, 3 midfielders, 2 attackers) 5-2-3 (5 defenders, 2 midfielders, 3 attackers) 3-5-2 (3 defenders, 5 midfielders, 2 attackers) 3-4-3 (3 defenders, 4 midfielders, 3 attackers)

Roostophe Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 It's an unfair formation. 4 forwards would be too much even for 4 defenders. I don't think it's even allowed in real-life football (I've never seen it used, so it's likely.) Do you have any players with the 'all-round' skill? They can be used to play out of their default position.

Do you have any players with the 'all-round' skill? They can be used to play out of their default position. I've sorted out another formation. It's just odd that 4-2-4 is allowed but not 3-3-4.
EEVILMURRAY Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Could we have a team roster here maybe in the first post? I know who some of the teams are in the leagues but not all.

How the fuck did I forget that 4-2-4 is allowed despite what I just said? I don't know why 3-3-4 is prohibited, then. But I'll reiterate that I've never seen it in real-life football.
Jimbob Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Drew the last fixture, must of done something right to get a point from it. Didn't know about the pool, shall investigate later. See if i can win more money.
EEVILMURRAY Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 (edited) Made of Win cheated. Speaking of formation, where can I change it? I thought it was on the tactics page but I can't seem to find it. Edited March 20, 2009 by EEVILMURRAY
Roostophe Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Speaking of formation, where can I change it? I thought it was on the tactics page but I can't seem to find it. You do that on the Player Squad page. Just choose the number of defenders, midfielders and forwards you want. The formation selection on the tactics page is just for defending purposes, it seems.
Ten10 Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Made of Win cheated. Someone has to break your drawing streak, if anything you should be honoured to lose to such a brilliantly managed team. There was no way we were going to lose on our home ground. You do that on the Player Squad page. Just choose the number of defenders, midfielders and forwards you want. The formation selection on the tactics page is just for defending purposes, it seems. Yeah, its quite a bit of guess work but if you select the right formation to defend against your opponent is less likely to score(I believe there is some overlap). I just use it as a guide when setting up my own team formation to see what is legal. I think the last minute change from 4-2-4 is what saved the day for me.
Mr_Odwin Posted March 20, 2009 Author Posted March 20, 2009 (edited) A great game today, but my heart fears Dyson. Loving the matchday X11 today. A team roster is a good idea. I'll put up everyone that I think: Haden United - Haden Dysonism F.C - Dyson Complete Domstercool - Domstercool Emo Blades - jayseven Happenstance FC - Happenstance O3 FC - Mr_Odwin AFC ReZs Rabies - ReZourceman Roostophe Rovers - The Villan Team Cubed - Cube Moogles Vipers - Moogleviper The Sixty-Fourthers - gaggle64 Made of win - Ten10 Shore Tea Utd. - Shorty Secret United - Charlie Tin Can Club - Mundi Nautical Nuns - Paj Meen Ah The Wednesday - GothicPlague Essex Elite - Ellmeister Party at Richters - EEVILMURRAY Drunk Cripples - LazyBoy Recall United - Jimbob MadDog United - MadDog Let me know if any of these are wrong! Edited March 20, 2009 by Mr_Odwin
Dyson Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 3-0 victory away from home against Cube? Bring it on. I suspect my next match against jayseven may end up with a surprise victor - I have this funny feeling he's my dark horse. Also damn you newbies for finally getting in to the Xpert Pools! I've tried to get the others in to it before but nobody else has and as such it's been my private source of extra income. 400k per match to be precise! Still - competition is more interesting. And stakes are higher! Woot!

My midfield special duo surrounded by a sea of blue! Still was sweet to get manager of the week day whatever lol. I wonder how that is worked out.
Dyson Posted March 20, 2009 Posted March 20, 2009 Stenhelm and Brobeck both exclusively make it in to the X11 again this week eh? Iiiinteresting...
Mr_Odwin Posted March 20, 2009 Author Posted March 20, 2009 (edited) I love that on match days there are always some culls. "Gah, this player played a three" *sacks* We should have a massive week of the pools where everyone goes on it - bigger pot and all that. Haha! Just noticed Noa Brusling played a 17 in the lower league. Unreal. Edited March 20, 2009 by Mr_Odwin
