Hattrick

[ArsenalTexan3]

Good call there Craig!

I'm playing a bot away and for the rest of the Cup, hope to get as far as possible. I'll play it normal and my starting XI to be safe this week. Then I mix it up. My first league match is away, but it appears that team hasn't been playing too long and it weaker so thats a good sign.

Also downloaded hattrick Buddy. Seems like a good program. A bit confusing though. Is giving me some good ideas on where to put players for the next cup round, emergencies, and friendlies.

Hey, everyone, don't forget to set your PK lineup for your cup match!

Great call. I think its set, but better check to make sure.

Buddy came with Kopitenkc's recommendation so thatis what I use. I thought much as you that it was confusing at first, but it gives great info if you know where to look.

Sage advice, to be sure........but if my match goes to PK's tonight I may as well shoot myself.

:-)

I just pray for no injuries, especially since I'm fielding mostly starters to keep their form up for the start of league play.

Yeah me too, if the game goes to PK's I think I may have to go Tony Saprano on my players

This is another thing I'm hoping for tonight, no injuries, I'm playing the starters so that my starting mids get training this week. NO INJURIES and good luck as games kick off

ARRGGHHHH!!!!!!

"In the 13th minute the visitors broke through on the right after some poor defending and Robert Brady put the ball away for 0 - 1."

First goal of the season! Let's hope it's followed by many more (for all of us!).

And that's the last of my PBP posts (I promise)...

9 minutes :)

13th minute was the first goal, 4-0 was the final. I nice easy bot stomp. Make sure to ask Helghallen when his first goal came. ;) Congrats to all of those who won their game tonight, which I believe was everyone.

[Helghallen]

I avoided the WTF loss but still got a WTF. Possession was 83/98. No that 2nd number is not a typo. 98 effing %. Final score 1-0 to the Dynamo. What is up with that? ARGH!!!!!

I believe all BSers all won. Congrats and on to the league. :)

I PICed my match against a higher (V) division opponent and won 4-2.

Apparently my new winger is a bitch because he got sent off on two yellows in like the 30th minute.

Can't wait for the league. I'm going to stomp my next opponent.

8 minutes for my first goal and a 5-0 win. A hattrick for one of my starting forwards too.

Helgallen waited until very late to pull of his lucky 1-0 win against ten men!! ;)

[ArsenalTexan3]

won 3-nil, but my starting CD is injuried +1 and my German forward +3. :(

Play another person from VI next week, a human, but their formation might make it where I can attack them in their weak spot.

[ur_land]

Beat my Bot 6-0...I should have PICed it (but I was nervous--it was my first cup game!).

I'm scouting my next opponent, and his typical formation makes me wonder about how offensive and defensive ratings match up. Will my left offense be pitted against his right defense (and vice versa)? Or does the engine not work like that? I tried to find this in the rules, but I wasn't sure.....

Thanks.....

oh--we've got 9 teams signed up for the inaugural BS cup--I'll give y'all the full rundown tomorrow (my file is at work!)

[Deuteriumoxide]

Ouch I drew a division four team for my next cup match.

Next week should be a nice pay day at least.

I already had three goals at twelve minutes (as a couple of you HT-mailed me to note) :p.

ur_land, it's supposed to be your left attack against his right defense, with left/right being from the point of view of the keeper. It's backwards, but on the other hand, if you're trying to attack his left defense, beef up the players on the left-hand side of the lineup screen.

[Chris Caron]

I had to come to work early on Thursday and was only able to watch half the game and now HT is closed for maintenance.

My WTF...nothing happened in the first half except one shot from the bot and I had 65% possesion. Now I won't be able to see if I even won until this freaking afternoon.

Yeah what's wrong with him??? Would love to see who I am playing next in the cup, but hattrick is down at the moment, and is for another 3 hours or so, so I'll have to wait for that.

And I was sweating bullets the whole time. My Lord, I kicked his ass up and down the field and was up a man for quite some time. I had HT mailed my opponent good luck before the match. He mailed me back last night blaming the lack of games he played and thought he needed wingers. I politely mentioned that 2% possession in the 2nd half will definitely keep you from winning the game.

Well I won my bot match 4-0 away, PICing. Next, I've got a Weak Div VI #1 human though who started in December. Defensive trainer, I should own the midfield. Hello third round.

Lost my 2nd IM in as many games. This time my original team member with decent experience.
