Redcafe XBOX - Fifa 12 League

Bosnian_red (Liverpool) 3-3 (Chelsea) RedMist99

Really good game mate, I feel dirty for using them :lol:
Andy Carroll the savior there! :lol:
 
Fixtures are up, table updated,.

Still Fixture from Week 3 & 4 Incomplete, is there any point in issuing warnings?

Edit: Clink Bak and Smores I'm available to play.

I like the idea, but I'm now on a second warning if you go by the rules, which I feel is unfair as I've genuinely been trying to get my games in and been available online 4-5 from the last 7 days.
 
FAO Cling + Danieldinho

It will most likely be Weds, Thurs or Fri that we can get our games on.

Unlikely I'll be able to squeeze any in before the footy tonight but if it turns out I'm available during those times I'll post in here.
 
Can play a game most of today, just send a pm my way.
 
Realistically the way we're going I think another 2-3 week and people will be on their 3rd warnings and it'll just ruin the league will less people. Perhaps we could scrap the system but then people will still take the mick.I did think maybe we should just wait for the fixture to be complete until starting a new week but then it isn't fair on the people who have played.
 
:lol::lol: I've never been beaten that badly before, I swear the FIFA gods are against me lately.
 
Neo_Mufc (Man Utd) 7-0 (Spurs) Smores

Finally win a game! Took my chances well. Smores you had quite a few 1 on 1's just couldn't convert them.
 
Been story of my last few games that, make some fantastic chances with good football and somehow miss. I'm usually tight at the back as well, these last few games have me seriously questioning my ability :lol:
 
You got to the final of the last tournament as well didn't you Smores?

You was on the counter with 2 strikers running towards goal and you went to square it to adebayor I think and he kind of messed it up.

Ahhhh.. the "jew goal" I think you mean? Or at least that's what some petulant child called it when he messaged me after I whooped his ass on UT anyway.

:lol: I've had all sorts of messages from frustrated fifa kids. I was winning once and because it was a high scoring game I didn't want to lose so I basically kept the ball Barca style in my half for 20 mins. It proper wound him up.

Yeah... that would piss me off too to be fair.

I've got an hour to kill if you're free?
 
Danieldinho (Liverpool) 3 - 2 (Chelsea) Sw33t

Definitely felt I deserved a draw out of that. Bastard late minute header winner.
 
:lol: time to ditch the 3 at the back I think.

Danieldinho (Man City) 3 - 0 (Man Utd) cw1984

2 completely comical goals but a deserved win no doubt.
 
I so nearly stopped him.

Winning 1-0 at half time. He then gets a joke of a penalty in the 2nd, scores, then I missed some sitters, he scores in the 85th, making it 2-1, then I get one in the 86th, 2-2.

Then scores a header from a free kick in the 90th, which never should have been a free kick.

Pah! Was an epic game though
 
2 games played with my new formation. 2 wins, 10 goals scored.

Cling... You're dead meat!
 
Have a new guy starting :

Rooneyutd10 (Rooneyutd10)

His fixtures are

Smores vs Rooneyutd10
I_Love_Dong vs Rooneyutd10
Rooneyutd10 2 2 Foxy
Rooneyutd10 vs Carlsen19
Rooneyutd10 vs RDCR07
bosnian_red vs Rooneyutd10
cw1984 (Arsenal) 0 - 2 (Tottenham) Rooneyutd10
Neo_Mufc (Liverpool) 0 - 3 (Arsenal) Rooneyutd10
Out of interest would everyone be happy to scrap the warnings and instead every 5 games or so we'll just wait for everyone to catch up?

Sorry mate, didn't see this. Message me online if you ever see me on there, I'm on most nights.

I terrified...

Perhaps slow people's fixtures down? If someone has 5 not played, don't give them one next week. This might piss on your spreadsheet, I don't know, but might be worth thinking about. If they can make some sort of promise that they can make a few up, perhaps they can request it.

Likewise, if someone has gone really far ahead on games played, perhaps slow them to one a week.

Keeping the games as even as possible would be best, but if someone is 10 games behind its just going to become impossible.
 
I'm available to play now if you're free.

Edit: I think Carlsen19 might have been banned.
 
Sadly not, at work.

Banned from the Caf? One too many reminders to the newbs about how good he is with Brentford, probably.

He played me as Torino recently (in a friendly). I was Napoli. It was surprisingly close for the first hour, I was concerned.

You can't search his username, Foxy's been trying to get hold of him for a couple weeks. I'll try PM.
 
You got to the final of the last tournament as well didn't you Smores?

Aye, I don't play as much now and it shows :lol:

Properly fluffing chance after chance. I can't even explain my defending, that's usually the best part of my game.

Ah well we're all winners for taking part....ahem
 
Anyone else getting that feeling this won't finish and be abandoned?

Hope not :(
 
If that happens it would be pathetic.

Who can't set aside half an hour a week, when you have specifically signed up for to do something?

I honestly thought we'd be completing all fixtures within the first few days but it's not going too well. We've still got 5 games or so remaining from the last 2 week's. If I give out warnings we'll probably lose a few people which isn't good for the league. I was thinking to not allow any more fixtures to be handed until everyone has completed 8-10 games. Was also thinking to award people automatic wins if the other person doesn't complete their fixture.

But then you got the problems of people like Carlsen, getting banned (maybe?) and having already played some games, then not able to finish the league.

What do you do then? Give his future opponents 3-0 wins? What about the people who have already played him and lost or drawn?

After this game week, we should just get all the games caught up and then, once we're all at the same amount of games played, continue with the next set of fixtures to a stricter schedule.

Maybe just do the same as I did with ASTAR because he already started and had to leave I've awarded every future game a 3-0 win.

So now Carlsen hasn't been playing for the last couple of week's instead removing him, just give his opponents automatic wins and remind him that he needs to keep up with his games otherwise he'll continue to forfeit them.

Edit: Just had a pm from Carlsen and he's had to pull out. Will update it all tomorrow.
 
FAO Cling

Im free all day until about 6pm. Either post on here or send me a PM if/when you're free.

Surely the player has to have played 50%+ of their games before you start awarding the win? He's barely played so all you're doing is penalising those very few who have played him and not taken 3 points. Its basically a freebie for everyone else.

Yes, including me. But he's not a bad player and I don't need to fall further back!
