Roostophe Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Why are they hard to write? And what does a pyramid scheme mean? They're hard to write because not a lot happens in the games. I have to look at the teams and their stats and the match reports. Then inject some humour into them to make them readable. It's pretty difficult, but easy if the game is eventful. And a pyramid system is like this: -------------------Division 1------------------ -------Division 2a---------------Division 2b---- ---Division 3a------Division 3b-----Division3c--- And so on.

Dyson Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 I'm not a fan of this 'cartel' that seems to be forming of VIP players :P Don't unbalance the league! It doesn't unbalance anything The only advantages we get are additional stats at our fingertips that could be worked out by non-VIP members if they really wanted to trawl through season and look at past seasons, past meetups etc. The graphs and such are nice touches We can also offer to buy players from each others' clubs but I haven't seen that happen yet.

jayseven Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Oh - the stats are cool :P I want to get VIP and probably will soon! I mean if you four/five guys all trade players amongst each other, offering deals and whatever, then it gives the rest of us less equality!

Dyson Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Well it hasn't really happened yet. I doubt people are going to let people go for cheaps anyway It'd be like letting Ronaldo go from Man Utd to Liverpool for 20 million or something! But I'd like to be quirky and try out a player loan at some point just for kicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cube Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 It'd be like letting Ronaldo go from Man Utd to Liverpool for 20 million or something! 20 million sounds like a stupidly high price for a palyer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyson Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 20 million sounds like a stupidly high price for a palyer. They ended up selling him for 80 million to Real Madrid. So yeah, go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayseven Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 I don't think there's that much money difference between the leagues, is there? Oddy, can you clarify? I think it's the same everywhere; 1m weekly sponsor money, 200,000 if you do a news report, and then x amount if you play on the pools (forgot to play in the game just gone, and i would've guessed all 5 results). The real money comes from selling players (you get a new youth once a month, for example) and earning distinctions at the end of the season; I think the managers of the top three scorers/assists/points/x11 appearences as well as league winner get cash amounts.

Cube Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Yay! I've been given an official team. It's actually a brand new one. (I'm not on my PC so that why it's IE) That Clark Rainford is worth an estimated 16 million. I'm actually tempted to see if I can put him on transfer for a low price, make a bid with my N-E team then accept it as my Xpert team...but that probably wouldn't be fail (and risky in case it doesn't work).

You're right about all the money stuff, except it's just the top players for goal/etc that get money, not the top three. In VIP private transfers (I've made two this last week - check out P4 FC's players in and players out!) the minimum transfer fee to the agent is 250k so that sucks, and players lose their hearts, so loans would be detrimental.

Mundi Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Seriously Ellmeister this isn´t funny anymore. This is the third game we have against each other and every game has been a draw. Just lose to me already! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Mcoy Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Mcoy thinks this game is seriously againt him. Mcoy was the first team to lose to the adorable vikings with them having 20 attack/midfield. Mcoy also picked up his 4th injury in a row now so Mcoy is quickly running out of players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roostophe Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 5-1 win for me. And thank you Gaggle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReZourceman Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Wow Gaggle beating Oddy. How the mighty have fallen. A 3-1 win for me, getting the champion Michael Wiberg in the X11. It would appear instead of last seasons relegation battle, we have something of a mid table battle. Fridays match of ReZ VS Jay I think will be very interesting. I do genuinely believe it can go either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Odwin Posted June 23, 2009 Author Share Posted June 23, 2009 My midfield played like crap and Gaggle's were amazing. I was pretty confident before today's game then watching it was a bit of a letdown. 8 chances to 3 = ouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayseven Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Well the Gaggle victory was a surprise! Gaggle, you've had a couple of seasons where you seem to only excel half of the time. This season's looking more your style! Mcoy! I think you should try a different formation if the 4-4-2 isn't working out for you, plus having your best two defenders injured is pretty ouch - but they'll both be back for your game against Jaffa munchers, so you won't struggle for too long. For once Im backing you on this one! Give him a good thrashing. ReZ! Yeah I think we're fairly evenly-matched teams. I've checked the stats and it seems that you have a very good home record, so I do have that hurdle to overcome -- but my players had a great game against shorty, and I believe they're all psyched up for this! I've changed my tactics about four times already, but I think they're set now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcoy is playing alot of youngseters Mcoy has a 2 skill strike (lol) Mcoy also has some fresh 3-5 skill midfielders so this is probably having a major impact on chances and team work.
