Battrick thread, Part II

[Bluto11]

As you will discover battrick training is very very slow .... :(
its really slow, i wasn't sure if it happened because the thing that says what has happened in each area didn't have a training update for hte WI, or at least one that I didn't see


edit: plus it won't let me promote a player from my youth academy, which i did last week, but not this week. I thought sundays or mondays were youth academy days??

It's the financials problem noted on the front page. No financials update = no youth pull.

6th in my league. Hoping to get away from that drop zone and into a playoff space to get promote to Div 2.

That must be a tight division, if you've still got a shot at the league title from sixth place.

3 games left and i've got a 4 point lead in first place. hope i can hang on. i'm playing the 5th place team this week, the 7th place team next week, and the 2nd place team for the last game of the seaon. it could be interesting

I noticed a couple of the BigSoccer Battrick Cup games have not been arranged yet. Don't forget to challenge/accept fairly soon.

Distrunner, I challenged you.

Chris, you need to get your game arranged ...

In league play -- I am in second and I am "going for it" against first place this week.

Can't really catch him in the standings even with a win for me, but it'd be fun to beat him :)

I've challenged Dynamo KC and have no reply as yet.

That's Helghallen (Chris) -- I am sure he will accept as soon as he gets back online.

No way I can get the title but I can still clinch a playoff birth. The leader has it in the bag but 2 to 4th still anything can happen there.

Playoff berth, huh? :confused:

Is this related to a decision on how they're going to handle initial promotions to speed injection of human teams into the top divisions?

The only team that has a shot at moving up is the one that wins the division.

You're just battling for prize money. And now, all of a sudden, the top four are within four points of each other, for my series.

Would some one PLEASE email me a cut & paste my match? I'm unable to view it today and would still like to read the play by play as I'm still figuring out how my guys react to the orders I've set. This is only my second league game.

how do you want it?

i can email you the commentary after like every 10th over, or i can just do your innings and then the opponents innings

Managed to get 279-3 this morning.

Currently have my first placed opponent at 53-1 after 12 overs. Glad to get an early breakthrough. Need another in the next five overs to keep him in check.

I have one bowler who is keeping the score down and another who is leaking runs like a sieve :(
